I upgraded from apple iPhone 5S to iPhone 8, and I like it fine so far. My 5S was a beautiful gold color and while the 8 calls itself "gold" it looks more "flesh tone" to me. It doesn't make much difference because I keep it in a secure case all the time anyway. The iPhone 8 operates the same way as the 5S so there's no learning curve. It's sleek, fast and impressive. Mine has 64 GB,same as the 5S, so there's plenty of storage. I've had the phone less than a month so I'm still in the testing and discovering stage. Cameras seem to work well, and what few I've taken have been good, including a few in low light. I look forward to testing this out more in future. There was a lot of ballyhoo about the iPhone 8 and upwards lack of an earphone jack but a little adapter was included with my 8, and it works fine. Just plug one end onto your ear buds or whatever and plug the other end into the phone's charging port and it's fine. Don't know what all the fuss was about. The screen is bright and easy to read with a plethora of personal adjustments available in settings. The phone's speaker sound is much better than on the 5S. Calls are easy to make and voices are clear and easy to understand. The phone charged up pretty fast using an iPhone quick charge cable, but there's a quick charge pad available that Apple doesn't include with the phone. You just lay the phone down on that pad and it charges. Switching phones was easy and didn't take very long. I backed up my 5S to iCloud, then powered up the new phone and followed set up instructions. That was fast and easy then all I had to do was select the backup files I'd just created on my old phone. After a few minutes everything on my old 5S was transferred onto my new 8. No cables, no hooking up to a laptop or PC, no going back and forth. Just easy as pie. My new phone has everything that was on my other phone including all my contacts, pictures, notes, apps, everything. Like magic. Of course it's done through WiFi. One caution: the phone is glass front and back. It's pretty but it's also VERY slick and easy to drop. I recommend both a protective screen cover and some sort of life-proof case [I'm using Zizo Bolt for iPhone 8) ready to put on your new phone the minute you get it. All-in-all, I've been satisfied with my iPhone 8, especially since I found a killer deal on it, and it should serve me well for several years. Time will tell. But I do recommend it. Read full review

I got this for my husband after he broke his iPhone 5S. He didn’t think he would like it, but is very happy with the size. It has turned out to be a great phone for him.

My girls love them. They walk around with them in there hands all day. I wouldn’t get anything done around the house without them. Great investment and a time saver for sure.
