help iPhone 8 FAQ

Why does the iPhone 8 have a glass back?

Apple moved from the iPhone 7's aluminum rear to glass so the iPhone 8 could support Qi wireless charging. The phone still retains the physical Home button with Touch ID rather than adopting Face ID.

Does the iPhone 8 support the latest version of iOS?

The iPhone 8 received iOS 16 but was not included among the devices supported by iOS 17. That limits access to newer system features and makes long-term app compatibility an increasing concern.

What is the difference between the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus cameras?

The iPhone 8 has one 12-megapixel rear camera. The iPhone 8 Plus adds a second telephoto camera and supports optical-style zoom options and Portrait mode unavailable on the standard model's rear camera.

Does the iPhone 8 use USB-C or a headphone jack?

Neither. It uses Apple's Lightning connector and has no dedicated 3.5 mm headphone jack, continuing the port arrangement introduced with the iPhone 7.
