iPhone 8 it will have a higher resolution than the iPhone 7 Plus, according to new rumors that appeared in the past few days, and that is perfectly understandable. According to information from the past few days, the iPhone 8 will have a 5.8-inch screen with a resolution of 2800 x 1242 pixels, but only 2436 x 1125 pixels would be used for applications, the rest for a special function menu.
However, we are talking about a substantial increase in the resolution of the iPhone 8 compared to that of the iPhone 7 Plus, the largest offered so far by Apple in the iPhone. More precisely, the iPhone 8 resolution will increase to 2800 x 1242 pixels from 1920 x 1080 pixels, a change of this kind being expected by many people for a very long time.
If you think that the iPhone 8 will not come with an increase in the standard resolution, then you should think about the fact that 3 years have passed since this happened. 2014 is the year when Apple made the last change for the resolution of iPhones, and in 2017 it will make a new change for iPhone 8 thanks to the new screen.
iPhone 8 - here's why it will have a higher resolution
Before iPhone 6, the Apple company increased the resolutions of its iPhone terminals once every 2 years, but starting with iPhone 8 it could do this once every 3 years. The truth is that the time has come for the iPhone 8 to be released with a higher resolution since most Android smartphones have high resolutions now.
The iPhone 8 with its resolution of 2800 x 1242 pixels competes with the rest of the Android smartphones that currently have resolutions of 2560 x 1440 pixels. We are talking about a difference in vertical and horizontal resolutions, but this is normal because Apple could offer a different aspect ratio for the iPhone 8 screen, considering its dimensions.
My opinion is that the iPhone 8 will have a higher resolution this year because it has been a long time since Apple made this change. If the iPhone 8 resolution will really be 2800 x 1242 pixels, or if it will be smaller, it remains to be seen, but I think there are minimal chances that the resolution will remain the same this year.
