The iPhone 8 was released in September 2017 alongside the iPhone 8 Plus and was the first Apple device to make wireless charging without extra accessories. The glass and aluminum housing makes this possible, as well as a much slicker, smoother overall aesthetic.
The front and rear camera, as well as battery and chip have all been upgraded, making many refer to it as the iPhone 7S, as it has the same footprint as the earlier release, just with noticeable upgrades and improvements.
As of 2021, with the release of the iPhone 12, the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus were the last devices released with a bezel and home button.
Our iPhone 8 devices are fully tested for all functions - Touch ID, front camera, back camera, Bluetooth, WiFi, speaker/microphone etc and backed by a one year warranty and a lifetime IMEI guarantee. You'll never wake up to a blacklisted device or end up getting no signal out of the blue like you would if you got a used un-warrantied device off Facebook Marketplace, Kijiji or elsewhere.
Battery Health is guaranteed to be a minimum of 90%*, and all devices are backed by a 90 day warranty which covers physical hardware or software defects, but not accidental damage (Water damage, drops, etc.) We'd recommend Bounce coverage to make sure your next two broken screens don't cost more than $0.
*Batteries under 90% will be replaced with third party units. In X series and up battery replacements will show as Service in the settings, this is due to apple serializing their own batteries. This has no affect on the phone itself, it will still function as normal. There is no way around this without having AppleCare+
