The red iPhone 8 and 8 Plus will be available from all major carriers on Friday; preorders have already begun. Sadly, there\u2019s no red iPhone X for reasons unknown, but Apple is putting out a Product RED folio case so you can at least buy an accessory for the device that sends some of the purchase price to a good cause.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">Today Apple offered a brief hands-on with the iPhone in its latest hue. The major difference between last year\u2019s Product RED iPhone and this one is that Apple has wisely gone with a black bezel on the front. I wasn\u2019t a big fan of the white faceplate on the 7; in fact, I bought a dumb screen protector to try to get this same look. Now Apple has made the right choice, and the red \/ black combo is indeed very, very sleek.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">The other difference this time around is that the iPhone 8\u2019s back is glass, whereas the 7\u2019s was aluminum. That allows for wireless charging, but it also means you\u2019ll pick up more fingerprints \u2014 even in this red color. It certainly does a better job of hiding them than the space gray iPhone, but the red isn\u2019t bright enough to eliminate smudges completely.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">Obviously the glass back doesn\u2019t have a metallic shine when light hits it like the red iPhone 7, but it\u2019s a striking, vibrant phone all the same. This thing is red, and the color can shift a bit depending on the light \u2014 albeit not to the extent of HTC\u2019s gorgeous solar red U11. In sunlight, it\u2019s a vivid candy red. Indoors, it\u2019s a bit more subdued. So I\u2019m all the more disappointed that Apple decided against a Product RED iPhone X; this shade of red with stainless steel sides would\u2019ve looked great. Maybe next year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">On that note, Apple should really just release these Product RED iPhones at launch each September and move out of this mid-cycle pattern. They\u2019d sell more, and existing iPhone 8 owners wouldn\u2019t be stuck with that \u201cwelp, I wish I had the red one\u201d feeling. At least there\u2019s always the Product RED silicone case and now the leather folio for the X. (There\u2019s also a standard leather RED case, too.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">On to the photos! And just to head off any confusion, though they look black in some of these shots (due to lighting), the Apple logo and iPhone \/ Product RED text are silver.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 8pt;color: #000000\">Source:-https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/circuitbreaker\/2018\/4\/11\/17221452\/apple-red-iphone-8-hands-on-photos<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/lifestyle\/close-look-apples-red-iphone-8.html\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 630px !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A CLOSE LOOK AT APPLE\u2019S RED IPHONE 8 For the second consecutive year, Apple is releasing a Product RED color variant of its iPhone.
