Apple A11 Bionic (10 nm)Chipset 64GB 3GB RAM, 256GB 3GB RAMRAM & Storage Dual: 12 MP, f/1.8, 28mm (wide), PDAF, OIS +Rear Camera Non-removable Li-Ion 2691 mAh battery (10.28 Wh)Battery

Under the hood sits the A11 Bionic, a 10nm hexa-core chip that was still snappy years after launch and handles iOS multitasking without much fuss. You get either 64GB or 256GB storage, though there's no card slot to expand it later. The 5.5-inch Retina IPS LCD runs at 401 ppi, sharp enough for text and video, and it's paired with stereo speakers and a fingerprint sensor up front rather than Face ID.

The dual 12MP camera setup adds a telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom and OIS, useful for portraits and tighter shots that a single-lens phone can't match. Apple iPhone 8 Plus price in Malaysia starts from RM1850. Battery capacity is modest at 2691 mAh, but it supports 15W fast charging and Qi wireless charging, plus the body carries IP67 water resistance.

Colour options include Gold, Space Gray, Silver, and Red, and the glass-and-aluminium build still holds up well against newer designs in terms of feel.
