With all three models, the iPhone X, iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plusunveiled, let us see to what extent Apple improved the optics of these mobile computing marvels.

iPhone X Gets All the Love in the Camera Department, the iPhone 8 Plus Comes Pretty Close With the iPhone 8 in Close Pursuit

The iPhone X is rocking a dual-camera lens, but it is vertically mounted instead of the horizontally mounted set up on the iPhone 8 Plus. The iPhone 8 still features a single lens, and gets the least amount of love from the company though that does not mean it is not a worthy addition for a smartphone upgrade.

The advantage of picking up the iPhone X later in the year is that it features optical image stabilization on both camera lenses and it also has a wider aperture value on the telephoto lens. What this means is that more light will be able to enter the lens, allowing for better photographs in varied lighting conditions.

Digital zoom for the iPhone X and iPhone 8 Plus goes all the way up to 10x, but it is limited to 5x on the smaller, but very capable iPhone 8. If you’re looking for raw compute and graphical performance, then all three phones will perform equally on that front, though we have to say that the iPhone 8 might win the race since it will feature a lower resolution than its bigger brothers.

The iPhone X on the other hand features several Portrait features and with timely software updates, the optics experience on the 5.8-inch flagship will certainly be an enjoyable one for potentially millions of customers that intend to purchase the $999 device.
