Product details

The strongest glass ever in a smartphone - on the front and back. A colour-matching frame. Made of aluminium, which is also used in space travel.
New finishes in space grey, silver and gold.

The Retina HD display looks better than any other. With True Tone, a large color space and 3D touch. True Tone technology provides automatic white balance and adapts to the light in any environment. For more relaxed vision. The large color space and the highest color accuracy in the industry make everything on the display look more brilliant and vibrant. Thanks to dual-domain pixels, the display looks great from almost any angle.

iPhone 8 has an even more advanced 12 megapixel camera. With a larger and faster sensor. A new color filter. Richer pixels. And optical image stabilization for photos and videos. The dual camera and new face recognition provide spectacular studio-quality lighting effects in portrait mode.

The new A11 Bionic. With four efficiency cores that are up to 70% faster than the A10 merger. And two performance cores that are up to 25% faster. A 2nd generation performance controller gives you more power just when you need it. With the same great battery life. The new three-core GPU developed by Apple is up to 30% faster than the A10 Fusion. The A11 Bionic delivers the power for exceptional augmented reality apps and games that will change your view of the world.

Das Huawei Mate 20 Pro bietet das beste Gesamtpaket ohne nennenswerte Schwächen und darf sich dank toller Ausdauer nun "U-500-Testsieger" nennen. Das Galaxy S9 Plus ist dicht dran, macht aber früher schlapp - es ist die beste Wahl für Samsung-Fans, die ein großes Display haben wollen...
