    iphone 8. Fast charging is a must.

    • You need a 29w USB-C charger (from the 12" MacBook) and a Lightning to USB-C cable for fast charging.

      Since this is OzBargain, it's worth mentally factoring in the price of those (if you don't own them already) if this is a deciding factor.

      • So the cable in the box doesnt enable fast charging? Thats a bit sheet

        • Included charger doesn't allow it and the chargers that do require USB-C.

          Bit of a bummer, but it is what it is. At least the hardware supports it!

          I guess thats something…

          But (just trying to figure all this out) - The cable with the samsung s8 is a USB-A to USB-C which allows fast charging (from my researching). So from that the limiting factor isnt USB-A? Or is it just that the apple version of fast charging required USB-C to lightning

        • Just did a bit more, apple requires it to be over USB-C as above (idk what the deal is with samsung) but to get the stuff to do it costs $105. bloody stupid

    Do you need more than 64gb of space? If not I would go for the newer model for any new features it has.

    I'd say that's worth $80.
