A beautiful mind.iPhone 8 introduces an all‑new glass design. The world’s most popular camera, now even better. The smartest, most powerful chip ever in a smartphone. Wireless charging that’s truly effortless.1 And augmented reality experiences never before possible. iPhone 8. A new generation of iPhone. DesignAn iPhone formed from glass.How do you build an iPhone out of durable glass that also allows for wireless charging? By formulating a new kind of glass. Reinforcing it with a laser‑welded steel foundation and an aerospace‑grade aluminium band. And engineering it down to the micron for water resistance. The most durable glass ever in a smartphone.The front and back feature custom-engineered glass with a 50 per cent deeper strengthening layer. A new steel substructure and a stronger, aerospace‑grade 7000 Series aluminium band provide additional reinforcement. And an oleophobic coating lets you easily wipe off smudges and fingerprints. Three new finishes.iPhone 8 comes in three new glass finishes: space grey, silver and gold. A six‑layer ink process allows for precise hues, opacity and rich depth of colour. And the colour‑matched aluminium band complements the glass beautifully. Resists water, splashes and dust.iPhone 8 is precision-engineered at the microscopic level to protect against water, splashes and dust. Wireless charging for a wireless world.We’ve always intended iPhone to be a truly wireless device, free from charging cables and headphone cords. With a glass back and an embedded wireless charging system, iPhone 8 is designed for a wireless future. Louder, more dynamic stereo speakers.iPhone 8 features redesigned stereo speakers that are up to 25 per cent louder and deliver deeper bass. Crank up the volume and enjoy richer‑sounding music, videos and speakerphone calls. Advanced security at your fingertip.With Touch ID, your fingerprint is your secure password. Use it to instantly unlock your phone and sign in to many of your favourite apps. Touch ID also enables Apple Pay, which lets you pay in stores, within selected apps and on participating websites. Retina HD DisplayHow do you make a display that’s more aware of the environment around you?
