#Gorilla class amazon iphone x upgrade#
The glass is not a massive change for the overall design of the device, but for most it will certainly feel like a nice upgrade over last year’s models with perhaps some big fans of the Jet Black iPhone 7 being the exception. That is, a very dark grey color (not unlike the matte Black model from last year) but with the mirror-like finish and feel similar to the Jet Black iPhone 7. As for the new Space Gray finish, which I had some hands-on time with during Apple’s event last week, it’s similarly a sort of cross between the matte Black and Jet Black models from iPhone 7. The silver model too feels more high-end with its mirror-like finish compared to last year’s silver aluminum material.

The 8 and 8 Plus retain an aerospace-grade 7000 Series aluminum band that we already know holds up pretty well.
If you were wondering, it is indeed the exact same glass as used on the iPhone X, but not the exact same colors for the silver and space gray models – the X models have a sort of iridescent quality that gives the colors a unique look, as I noticed in my hands-on with the device (The X won’t come in gold, yet).įrom experience with the stainless steel Apple Watch, I have to wonder how badly the band around the iPhone X will scratch. The glass on the back is almost a creamy, just-barely gold color compared to darker rose gold accents for the aluminum band around the edges and camera. The gold model is a more subtle shade this year that is actually somewhere between the gold and rose gold models from the iPhone 7 lineup depending on the light it’s in. I haven’t drop tested it and don’t plan to but we’ll link up the folks that do those sorts of things when they go public.

I’ve been testing both the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus (following some hands on time with the iPhone X at Apple’s event) and I must say the impressive update is way more than skin deep beyond the shiny new glass exterior…īut about that glass… for those that are willing to spend on an upgrade purely for aesthetics, to me the new glass material and slightly tweaked colors look and feel decidedly more high-end than the iPhone 7 lineup, although I had only the gold iPhone 8 Plus and the silver iPhone 8 to review.Īnd it’s not Gorilla Glass 5, I’ve confirmed, because Apple worked with Corning to formulate its own, better-than-Gorilla Glass 5 material. The iPhone 8, however, is by no means a slouch of an update. It is smaller than the 8 Plus yet has a bigger OLED screen with a controversial notch and it starts at $1000. It’s called iPhone X, as in the 10th anniversary edition of the device. But you can’t possibly consider the new phones without noting that Apple this year is breaking from tradition and launching a third flagship model that is radically different than the 8 and 8 Plus. The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus are Apple’s newest handsets introduced during its first event at the new Steve Jobs Theater at its also new Apple Park campus last week.
