I haven't noticed much difference between this and the iPhone 6+ I was coming from other than OLED and home button.

TBH, it's not worth the price. But oh well...

I used the 6S and 7 for the past two years. Earlier this year, I tried the S8 for a month and going back to my 7 felt like a major downgrade overall in terms of overall design. So going from the 7 to an X, I personally love the new design and don't mind paying more even if I don't necessarily need or take advantage of functions exclusive to it.

Just grabbed an 8 for $30 on a new 2 year plan. Wish the 8+ wasn’t so big or would’ve spent a little more for it.

Anyone can't download apps and open apps at the same time? This happens randomly.


Randomly, I wouldn't be open any downloaded app. It would open up for a split second and close itself.

I tried deleting it and redownloading it, the error "Unable to download app at this time" popped up.

Anyone experiencing this?

iPhone 8 is $15 tab at Freedom on any $50 plans. 8+ is $25 tab.

Gonna sign my parents up since I have a couple of those 35% discount codes off the plans.

$47.50 per month tab included.

Message your friends that work at Freedom to see if they have any more codes. I think Shaw employees got some more too.

i just signed up on freedom, i did the $50 for 5 gigs and unlimited calling

two problems at the moment, my imessage is not working properly and it's not connecting to LTE either.

i read on reddit that i'll have to wait a few days before things are working properly so i'll see how that goes

iMessage is a crap shoot. Should be fine once Apple adds Freedom APNs and formally activates an iMessage server in a week or two.

Make sure internet.freedommobile.ca is added to your iPhone LTE APN.

i'm currently still using my iphone 6. i ordered an 8+ and it doesn't arrive till dec 8.

i was told my old iphone doesn't have the correct band for LTE all the time. I think when i switch to the 8+ everything should be fine.
