It seems likely that most people are waiting for the release of Apple’s high-end iPhone X, which is launching on November 3. But there are several reasons to consider an iPhone 8 instead of waiting for the iPhone X.

- Functionally, they all are Identical:
All of these phones are powered by Apple’s new A11 Bionic chip, a neural engine, and the M11 motion coprocessor. The only difference is how the phones use these features: The iPhone X uses the A11 chip and neural engine for its new face-detection system Face ID, which the iPhone 8 does not have.
- Touch ID is a known, proven entity. Face ID, which will replace Touch ID on the iPhone X, is less known.
- All of these phones support the Qi wireless charging standard as well as fast-charging.
You will have to buy extra accessories if you choose either new charging method which is more expensive to consider when thinking about the iPhone 8 versus the $1,000-to-start iPhone X.
- The iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone X have nearly-identical rear cameras.
- The front facing cameras on the iPhone and iPhone X are also identical so why spend on same features?
- iPhone X is more expensive than the iPhone 8.
Finally, its recommended not to wait out so long for the launch of iPhone X just to spend a lot more money to get the almost same features as you may get by simply buying a simple iPhone 8.
