Apple today at the Steve Jobs Theater introduced the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus<\/a> with an all-new aluminum and glass design.<\/p>\n

The Verge<\/a><\/em> managed to get some hands-on time with the two new smartphones, which look more or less the same as the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, beyond their glossier looking glass-backed finishes.<\/p>\n
\n

The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus look pretty much the same as their predecessors, but they have a new back cover that\u2019s coated in glass and gives them a somewhat fresher look. The glass blends into the sides of the phone incredibly well, better than we\u2019ve seen on other phones. There\u2019s a subtle density to the glass, too, and overall it looks a lot better than the back of the 7. That glass back allows for wireless charging, which is one of the big new features here.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Those who owned an iPhone 4 may be concerned about Apple’s return to a glass back, but it said the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus have “the most durable glass ever in a smartphone, front and back.”<\/p>\n

Engadget<\/em>‘s Chris Velazco held the iPhone 8 and felt it had a “bit of extra density” compared to previous models. Fortunately, SlashGear<\/a><\/em>‘s Chris Burns said the difference is “near-impossibly-perceivable.”<\/p>\n
