The big Apple Event of 2017 has passed and we were introduced to three new iPhones this time. The iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and the iPhone X. First the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus are are similar to the iPhone 7 but with an improved camera, wireless charging and a few other tweaks. Now the iPhone X is definitely Apple’s new flagship phone. With the removal of the aging home button, we are introduced to a beautiful edge to edge screen with responsive gestures, a new TrueDepth front camera to unlock your device, and wireless charging.
Below is a simple comparison chart of the latest iPhones.

As I sit here with my little iPhone 6, I believe it is definitely time for an upgrade. I’m now a hardcore MOBA gamer, playing Vainglory daily, I would like more screen resolution and RAM for the intense matches. The iPhone X looks great and has a nice but screen but it totally goes against my never buy a 1st generation device rule so I’ll likely be ordering the iPhone 8 Plus. The iPhone 8 Plus will give me everything the iPhone X offers except for the new front-camera and tiny bezel so I’ll wait for the iPhone XXX.
