The listing also states that the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus comes with 2GB and 3GB of RAM respectively which is similar to their predecessors iPhone 7 and 7 Plus.
However, Apple has added fast charging technology to these new devices which the company claims that the smartphones can reach up to 50 percent of charge in about 30mins. Apple has also added support to wireless charging, which was a much-awaited feature in the iPhone line-up.
Also, one cannot judge the battery life of a smartphone just by looking at the battery capacity. The new A11 Bionic chip might be much more power efficient than the last year's A10 Fusion chipset. The company claims that the new chipset is 70 percent faster than the A10 chip.
