Like its two stablemates, the iPhone 8 Plus is powered by the Apple A11 Bionic chip with Neural Engine, backed by 3GB of RAM. The 8 Plus supports 3D Touch on its 5.5-inch Retina display, a feature no longer present on the latest generations of iPhones. All three phones support Qi Wireless Charging and USB fast-charge over Lightning, and they\u2019re IP67 dust and water-resistant under IEC Standard 60529.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table table-condensed table-hover\"><table><thead><tr><th><\/th><th><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-8\"><strong>iPhone 8<\/strong><\/a><\/th><th><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-8-plus\"><strong>iPhone 8 Plus<\/strong><\/a><\/th><th><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-x\"><strong>iPhone X<\/strong><\/a><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Processor<\/strong><\/td><td colspan=\"3\"><center>A11 Bionic<\/center><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>RAM<\/strong><\/td><td>2GB<\/td><td>3GB<\/td><td>3GB<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Display<\/strong><\/td><td>4.7-inch Retina LCD<\/td><td>5.5-inch Retina LCD<\/td><td>5.8-inch Super Retina OLED<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Cameras<\/strong><\/td><td><b>Wide:<\/b> 12MP f\/1.8, 28mm<\/td><td><b>Wide:<\/b> 12MP f\/1.8, 28mm<br><b>Tele:<\/b> 12MP, f\/2.8, 57mm<\/td><td><b>Wide:<\/b> 12MP f\/1.8, 28mm<br><b>Tele:<\/b> 12MP f\/2.4, 52mm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Water Resistance<\/strong><\/td><td colspan=\"3\"><center>IP67 Certification<\/center><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Battery<\/strong><\/td><td>1821 mAh<\/td><td>2691 mAh<\/td><td>2716 mAh<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Price<\/strong><\/td><td>Starting at $225<\/td><td>Starting at $230<\/td><td>Starting at $310<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The iPhone 8 Plus sets itself apart from its siblings with its screen, overall dimensions, and cameras. The iPhone 8 Plus is of course the biggest of the three, with its 5.5-inch Retina HD LCD and traditional bezels and home button. And like the slightly higher-end iPhone X, you get two 12MP rear cameras: an f\/1.8 wide-angle lens and an f\/2.8 telephoto with 2x optical zoom. The iPhone 8 Plus is also capable of 4k video recording at up to 60 fps. Here&#8217;s how the <a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/guide\/apple-iphone-8-plus\/compare\">iPhone 8 Plus compares<\/a> to other iPhones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"11-pro-max\">iPhone 8 Plus vs 11 Pro Max<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/mobile\/buy\/apple-iphone-11-pro-max\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.swappa.com\/images\/cache\/5f\/48\/5f48e1f43568737ce44c9de946c63689.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"126\" height=\"250\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve hung on to your iPhone 8 Plus until now, you most likely want a replacement that will last you equally long. This is where the <a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/mobile\/buy\/apple-iphone-11-pro-max\">iPhone 11 Pro Max<\/a> comes in. From its powerful A13 Bionic chip and gigantic 6.5-inch display to its stainless steel build quality and IP68 water resistance, the iPhone 11 Pro Max is a substantial upgrade on all fronts. Learn more on our <a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/guide\/apple-iphone-8-plus\/compare\/apple-iphone-11-pro-max\">iPhone 8 Plus vs iPhone 11 Pro Max<\/a> Comparison page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Performance and battery life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The iPhone 8 Plus is certainly no slouch, but the 11 Pro Max is a substantially more powerful smartphone. Upgrading to the iPhone 11 Pro Max gets you the A13 Bionic chip, which is roughly twice as fast as the A11 Bionic in the iPhone 8 Plus. The iPhone 11 Pro Max also bumps you up to 4GB RAM, making for smoother multitasking with fewer closed apps and reloads. And with its massive 3969 mAh battery, the iPhone 11 Pro Max has better battery life than any other iPhone &#8212; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomsguide.com\/news\/iphone-12-battery-life-results-are-in-and-theyre-not-great\">even better than the iPhone 12 Pro Max<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Display<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The iPhone 11 Pro Max has a much larger and higher resolution display than the iPhone 8 Plus. Despite sharing similar external dimensions, the iPhone 11 Pro Max screen is a full inch larger thanks to its nearly all-screen front face. The 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display on the 11 Pro Max also packs a whopping 2688 x 1242 resolution at an equally high pixel density of 458 ppi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Camera<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the iPhone 11 Pro Max has a powerful and versatile triple-camera setup with some of the very latest camera tech you can get in any phone. The 11 Pro Max packs a 12MP wide-angle lens (26mm, f\/1.8), a 12MP telephoto camera (52mm, f\/2.0), and a 12MP ultrawide camera (13mm, f\/2.4). And on the software side, the 11 Pro Max also supports 4k video recording at 60 fps and Apple\u2019s complete computational photography toolbox including Portrait mode, Smart HDR, and Deep Fusion with Night Mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"swappa-widget\" style=\"min-height:150px;\" data-primary-device=\"apple-iphone-11-pro-max\" data-section=\"mobile\" class=\"wp-block-swappa-pricing-widget\"><div class=\"swp-wgt\"><div class=\"swp-row\"><div id=\"swp_col_config\" class=\"swp-row\"><div id=\"swp_col_device\"><div class=\"swp-select\" data-target=\"swp_device_select\"><div class=\"swp-left\"><div style=\"height:60px;width:60px;\" class=\"swp-left\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Product Image\" id=\"swp_device_img\" src=\"https:\/\/static.swappa.com\/images\/cache\/c5\/19\/c519b238b3cf3151f2ade3422d46703f.png\"\/><\/div><div style=\"margin:10px 0;\" class=\"swp-right img-responsive\"><div id=\"swp_device_name\" class=\"swp-title\" style=\"padding-left:  7px;\">Apple iPhone 11 Pro Max<\/div><\/div><\/div><div><\/div><\/div><div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"swp_col_options\" class=\"swp_options_select\"><div class=\"swp-size swp-select\" data-target=\"swp_options_select\" style=\"height:76px;\"><div class=\"swp-left\" style=\"margin:10px 10px auto;\"><div id=\"swp_opt2_name\" class=\"swp-title\">Unlocked<\/div><div id=\"swp_opt1_name\" class=\"swp-muted\">64<\/div><\/div><div class=\"swp-down\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\u25bc\" width=\"24\" src=\"https:\/\/static.swappa.com\/static\/widget\/caret-down.svg\"\/><\/div><\/div><div id=\"swp_options_select\" class=\"swp_select_options img-responsive\" style=\"width:184px;display:none;\"><div class=\"swp-opt-title\">CAPACITY<\/div><div style=\"margin:0 8px;\"><div style=\"overflow-x:overlay;;width:100%;\"><div class=\"swp-options\" data-opt-index=\"0\"><div>64<\/div><div>256<\/div><div>512<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"swp-opt-title\">NETWORK<\/div><div class=\"swp-options\" data-opt-index=\"1\"><div>Unlocked<\/div><div>AT&amp;T<\/div><div>Sprint<\/div><div>T-Mobile<\/div><div>Verizon<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"swp_col_price\" class=\"swp-row\"><div id=\"swp_col_start_at\" style=\"width:100%;\"><div class=\"swp-col-50 swp-left\">LISTINGS<br\/> START AT<\/div><div class=\"swp-col-50\"><span id=\"swp_price\">700<\/span><\/div><hr class=\"swp-dotted\" style=\"width:100%;\"\/><\/div><div id=\"swp_col_buy\" style=\"width:100%;\"><a class=\"swp-buy swp-button swp-right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-11-pro-max\">SHOP NOW ><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"11-pro\">iPhone 8 Plus vs 11 Pro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/mobile\/buy\/apple-iphone-11-pro\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.swappa.com\/images\/cache\/e1\/ce\/e1ce018ed158f230c61f013a41dca7c9.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"126\" height=\"250\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/swappa.com\/buy\/apple-iphone-11-pro\">iPhone 11 Pro<\/a> is a substantial upgrade from the iPhone 8 Plus in every way.

And since the powerful chip is backed by 4GB RAM, it\u2019s also better at multitasking. The iPhone XS Max also boasts all-day battery life thanks to its 3174 mAh capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Display<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like the latest generation of iPhones, the iPhone XS Max features a nearly all-screen front face and Apple\u2019s innovative gesture-driven UI.

However, the telephoto lens on the iPhone XS Max has a faster f\/2.8 aperture, making it better in low light.

The faster A12 chip lets you run demanding apps and intensive 3D games with ease &#8212; and the 4GB RAM means you can multitask without worrying about closed apps and reloads.
