If you’re in the market for a big-screen iPhone but don’t want to pay upward of $1,000 for an iPhone XS or Max, the iPhone XR (which starts at $749, £749 and AU$1,229) is an excellent choice. It has key new features from Apple, including an advanced A12 Bionic processor, wireless charging and a camera that’s on par with the iPhone XS.
But last year’s iPhone 8 Plus, which is now discounted and starts $50 less than the XR at $699, £699 and AU$1,149, also remains a fantastic phone. Despite launching in 2017, the phone has many of the same advantages as the XR. It also sports a classic iPhone design, complete with a physical home button.
