iPhone 8 And iPhone X Revealed By Apple For 2017
Today, Apple has revealed two new iPhones to release this year at different times. The iPhone 8 and the iPhone X (read as the number ten) will be available September 22 and November 3, respectively.
The iPhone 8, which comes in both regular and Plus variations, looks to be a fairly incremental successor to last year's iPhone 7. It outperforms the former phone in every way and has returned to the heady days of glass backs, but otherwise looks and acts very similarly to the previous iPhone model.
The iPhone X has all of the iPhone 8's features, as well as a better camera, a 5.8-inch edge-to-edge screen, and new methods of interaction to work around the missing Home button.
Both phones include new-to-iPhone features like wireless charging, augmented reality, and real-time lighting calculations while taking photos.
Apple is also axing the 32GB and 128GB versions for each phone and is offering them only at 64GB and 256GB. The iPhone 8 starts at $699 ($799 for the Plus) and the iPhone X at $999.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
