iPhone 8: UK release date, price and best features of Apple's new device

Apple has launched two new smartphones, the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus, at a major event in California, which also saw the release of the premium iPhone X handset.

The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus are upgrades to Apple's current iPhone 7 and 7 Plus range, updating some of the main features found on Apple's current products.

Initially, most pundits thought the iPhone 8 would be Apple's main new phone - however it instead released three smartphones as part of the 10th anniversary of the original iPhone.

"Our intention has always to create something so magical, powerful, that the hardware virtually disappears," said Tim Cook at the launch.

He added it was a "new step forward for iPhone" that will "set the path for technology for the next decade". 

Introducing the iPhone 8, Apple executive Phil Schiller said the device "improves on everything we love about the iPhone". 

Here are all the details, specs and, importantly, prices that you need to know.

Both models will have a HD retina display and feature a 12MP camera.

Like the iPhone X, the two new iPhone 8 and 8 Plus phones will come with wireless charging capabilities.

This means the phone can be charged by simply placing it on a power pad. It is the first time the technology has come to the iPhone range.

"This is a simple thing. We do it everyday. We use them every day and charge every night," said Schiller. 

"Words can't describe how much nicer it is to never plug in a cable again."

iOS 11

The new iPhones will come with Apple's new operating system iOS 11. iOS 11 includes hundreds of new features like a redesigned control centre, better multitasking, improvements to the camera, peer-to-peer Apple Pay and new safety features.

Dual camera

The iPhone 8 Plus will have a 12MP dual-lens camera, similar to the one featured on the iPhone 7 Plus released last year.

It features a larger and faster sensor, a new colour filter and deeper pixels.

Video

Apple claims the new camera delivers “the highest quality video capture ever in a smartphone” with better video stabilisation and 4K video up to 60fps.
