IPhone 8 launches and 5 things you need to know

After Apple's leaks, rumors and claims about the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus, do you really think you know everything about their latest phone? There are still new things waiting.

Let's witness the expert from iFixit 'surgery' the iPhone 8 to see what's inside. There will be unexpected new things that you don't know.

Battery of smaller iPhone 8?

Right. Although Apple says the iPhone 8 will have the same battery life as the iPhone 7, iFixit found that the new phone has a smaller Lithium-ion battery size. The battery is 6.96 hours (approximately 1822mAh) while the iPhone 7 battery is 7.45 hours (1960mAh). These numbers are exactly what Apple has told Tenaa, China's telecommunications equipment certification body.

iPhone 8 has LTE connectivity to Gigabit

Why doesn't Apple produce iPhone 8 with the fastest high-speed mobile network technology? We don't know.

But it's hard to understand that the chip inside at least some iPhones 8 is capable of doing that, technically. iFixit discovered Qualcomm X16 modem inside an iPhone 8 that can support Gigabit LTE and Qualcomm WTR5975 RF combination chip designed to use Gigabit LTE.

Does that mean the iPhone 8 will be updated to support Gigabit LTE? Not sure yet. Especially, as rumored and as Apple did before, some iPhones use Intel chips instead of Qualcomm. (intel does not have a modem that supports Gigabit LTE).

If the mirror behind is broken, it will be difficult to replace

iFiXit took a long time to depend on the iPhone 8 back glass, using a knife and prying it on the metal layer a bit. Sure enough, it will definitely resist water well but it will take a long time to change it yourself. That's why Apple claims $ 99 to repair the glass when it breaks, even if you already have AppleCare +.

How does wireless charging work?

What is the fastest way to go into the iPhone 8 heart? It is the spiral tube for charging. That's what iFixit discovered when operating this phone. There is nothing special about inductive charging coils (inductive charging coil), which you can add to any iPhone for $ 13.

The Lighting port is the same color as the phone

Not really a secret disclosure but this is also quite interesting. Apple has always been obsessed with creating beautiful devices both inside and outside, (at least) since every member of the Macintosh team signed inside the case. But Steve Jobs repainted the NeXT factory when he didn't like the color inside.

It turns out the Lightning port's color inside the phone has the same phone color. If you like that, Apple seems to have done a good job.
