My group that I manage is using iphone 8s. We have 40, just added 4 last week. They’re good enough and aren’t stupid expensive..
I have an 8 plus. I like the 8 because it still has the home button and the print reader. Facial recognition is not for me.
Personal phone: Galaxy S6
Professional phone: iPhone 6
They work.
End of story.
I’ve been using my 7 Plus for the last few years.
It’s beat up but I wasn’t interested in buying a new one until the sound quality eroded.
