Is the iPhone 8 TWICE as good as the iPhone 4?

If you’ve seen the claim of this video andthought, “man, this guy has run out of projects for videos”, you’re damn right. But I’ve been looking around the house forsomething to make a video about. Anyway, let’s take a look at these telephones. The iPhone 4 was initially released in June2 010 and the iPhone 8 in September 2017, so the latter has over seven years of progress. In terms of design, it’s subjective whetherthe newer phone is actually better. Although the iPhone 4 “havent been” rounded perimeters, it doesn’t look bad for a ten-year-old design. There are only so many ways to improve it. Both telephones have the back made out of glass, and the iPhone 8 has wireless charging, in fact it was the first iPhone to come withthat feature. Thankfully, the iPhone 8 is not twice as bigas the iPhone 4. The 4 has a 3.5 inch spectacle and the 8 hasa 4.7 inch display, but it is a significant difference. And to be honest, I dislike sizable smartphones.I completely lost interest in any brand-new smartphonebecause they are all so damn big. The last-place telephone with a compact sizing and powerfulhardware is the iPhone SE from 2016. In reality, a few months ago( as of making this video in June 2020) they made a new iPhone SE that glances identical to the iPhone 8. This iPhone 8 is not impossible to use, sinceit’s not the “plus” model, but I wish they had retained an iPhone SE-sized sit. When I need a bigger screen I use my computer. No need to get technological about the processor and recall, but we can run a useless mark merely to see a tally on the screen. Both screens have the same technology, they’reliquid-crystal presentations. The iPhone 8 has a higher screen resolution, but it’s also larger, of course, and after estimates the pixel concentration is exactlythe same. People say that this pixel density is toolow these days, but although engineering has improved, our eyes have not.If you don’t look super close while comparingwith phone calls with higher pixel density, you are able to never notice the difference. Anything over 300 pixels per inch is morethan good enough. Speaking of storage, it depends. You could have a 16 GB iPhone 4 and a 256 GB iPhone 8, starting the newer telephone have the square of the storage of the older one. Nonetheless the iPhone 4 was also available in3 2 GB and the iPhone 8 in 64 GB, so in that case it was able to be twice as good. And these days works, photos, and videosare bigger than they were back when the iPhone 4 was brand new. The 4 has one speaker and the 8 has two, andmuch louder ones at that, so I’d say it’s more than twice as good.There is one thing that is not two times, but a million times better on the older phone. You approximated it: the presence of a headphonejack. I’ve owned this phone for over two years andI still miss the headphone jack. I make do with the adapter that came withit, but it’s still an extra step you must take and you can’t use that adapter whilecharging, unless you use wireless blame where you can’t move your telephone at all orit will stop. I do have Bluetooth headphones that I usesometimes, but it’s the principle of it that’s the problem. It’s not like removing the floppy drive fromcomputers and replacing it with a CD drive, or removing the USB type A port for a USBtype C port. There’s no better alternative for the 3.5 millimeter jack. I don’t simply connect headphones, I likewise connectspeakers or a stereo system. Do I have to throw all of it out for Bluetoothstuff that does not transmit instantly, often has questions pairing and connecting, and islower quality? The only place where I use Bluetooth regularlyis in the car.Moving on, the iPhone 4 merely supports 3G, I believe this specific type of 3G is called HSPA but I may be wrong, while the iPhone8 corroborates 4G LTE which I believe is more than twice as fast if “youre living in” the rightarea, which I don’t. We’ve talked about the hardware , now let’stalk about software help. The iPhone 4 can only run up to iOS 7 whilefor now the iPhone 8 can still run the latest iOS version, which is 13. It should be still supported for a while, but no one knows exactly how long it will be supported for.The iPhone 4 primarily came with iOS 4 andthe iPhone 8 originally with iOS 11, and now they’re running iOS 6 and 13 respectively, so they’re both two editions ahead of their original ones. I have iOS 6 on this iPhone 4 because it’sthe last explanation with this type of design, and although the most current version ogle moremodern, I still don’t like that flat designing so much better. But the more important thing is applicationcompatibility. Apple doesn’t make makes make apps forthese older iOS explanations. In knowledge, this iPhone 4 belonged to my daddy, who doesn’t need any advanced peculiarities, he precisely required to move calls and use WhatsApp, a messaging app very popular in most countries of the world. But because of Apple rules, Facebookwas forced to drop support for WhatsApp on any iOS version older than 9, so my dad hadto switch to a newer phone.Both telephones are quite fast, but needless tosay the newer phone is faster. And the camera, while it’s not too bad onthe iPhone 4, there have been many improvements with newer patterns, such as higher resolutionbut most importantly higher caliber. But both telephones have a mono microphone, whichsounds good but the recording level is quite low, and there’s no way to adjust it, at leastnot without third-party apps. I’ve tried Filmic Pro, which I got on salefor free a few years ago, but I’m fine to the utilization of the included camera app and turningup the capacity in video editing. Overall, this is subjective, but I definitelythink the newer phones , not just iPhones, are much more than twice as good when youadd seven years’ value of increases. Not saying this older phone is useless. I mean, it can still do regular summons, verses, and even iMessage … But no modern application can run on it, even if you have iOS 7. They’re too fun for nostalgia purposes, becausethis iPhone 4 with this background takes me back to the summer of 2012 when I had an iPhone4S. Sadly that phone is broken now and I haven’thad the chance to restore it hitherto, but this iPhone 4 is good enough. Anyway, I know this was a pretty lame comparison, but that’s it. Thank you for watching ..
