iPhone 8/Plus Question for anyone who went to a 8 from a plus size iPhone

[DevinNj]

What are your feelings? Are you still happy you did so at this point, or do you wish you would've gotten the 8 Plus?

I don’t have it yet but for me it seems like they hit the sweet spot.

I always loved the form factor of the regular iPhone but didn’t like the screen size. I love the screen size of the plus but hate the form factor.

The Plus size sells it for me. The Larger 1080 P display, extended battery and dual camera makes the difference for me.

I went from a 7 to a 8 Plus. I have small hands and thought it would be too big. It is not and I love it. I also love the battery life.

All the reasons why I loved my 7 Plus, (which I just sold) but I miss the smaller more manageable size of the regular iPhone. The X just doesn't do it for me for some reason, even after extensive hands on. So I'm looking at the 8 series, leaning towards the Plus. There's some decent deals for Black Friday

I went from a 6 Plus to a 7 and then to an 8 Plus but I kept the 7 too. By the time the 7 rolled around I was tired of the huge phone, but then by the time the 8/8 Plus was released I wanted it back.

If forced I’d say the 5.5 size is what I’d use permanently.

In last 6 months have had 6S Plus, 7, SE & 8 Plus. Was tempted by X but 8 Plus is my phone. Can’t go thinner screen and not convinced X has better photo IQ for 95% of shots.

Went from 6 to 7+, but still have another 6 for work.

Definitely prefer the bigger screen, but that compact size feels just right.

Replaced the 7+ with X.

I always felt the size of the regular was good, but the screen too small. On the other hand the screen on the plus is really nice, but size a bit big for me. That’s why I picked up a X: bigger screen in a slightly larger than regular 8 body. If they hadn’t released the X I would’ve jumped from my 6s to the 8+ in a heartbeat though. It is a stellar device!

 

[DevinNj]

Yeah I'm sure I'll end up with the 8 Plus, just trying to talk myself into the 8, but the camera and the battery life of the plus is the biggest factor for me. Like I said the X just doesn't do it for me for some reason. But that's just me.

Well the iphone 6,7,8 have the old 720p screen from like 10 years ago. I wouldn't pay $700 for that screen.
The 6,7,8 Plus has the beautiful 1080p screen at least.

 

[haruhiko]

It's either the Plus phone or the X.
There are too many compromises on the smaller phone in the iPhone 6 form factor.

I went from a 6+ to a 7. Loved the smaller, more one-handed 7 at first, but ended up selling it. I started really missing the larger battery and screen of the +, so I got a 7+.

 

[Fireball Dragon]

Went from 6 Plus to 8. I do prefer the smaller form factor as I use my iPad Pro a lot for iOS. But in all honesty wish I had waited a little longer for the X.

Went from 7 to 8+, took a few days to a week or so to feel "normal". But wouldn't go back now, the battery life being the real + for me. Display & camera don't hurt either
