Hi guys I need get some advice/findings from you guys, planning to change to iPhone.
All the while have been using Android. Only 2 years ago, a iP5s as my 2nd phone. I'm able to adapt to different platform easily. Below are my concerns.

Currently using s7 edge.

- Thinking about iP8+ Vs iP8.
- Is the battery life between this two phones really big? (I read post it's about the same, just want to hear more thoughts)

- will the 2GB ram Vs 3GB make a difference or can you all feel there's a performance impact when you are multi tasking.

- anyone tried playing h265 videos? I do download shows online and some of them are in h264. Can it do hw decoding? If yes, did you all buy infuse or the app store VLC can do the job already? :)

Thank you so much!

comparisons cant help u i only got ip8, but hw decoding is possible depending on the video player.
i am using playerextreme, some use VLC player.

i read 2gb and 3gb not much diff since both use diffferent resolutions.

If battery life, screen size and having the 2nd best camera important to you, then the 8+ is the way to go. My experience with the A11 chip has been great so far. Not sure how the 8 and 8+ can have similar battery life. The 8+ should and would outlast the 8. Some forum posts has praised the 8+ for its battery life.

You shouldn’t notice any huge difference in the RAM because iOS has always put optimisation as the top priority. From my understanding, when you’re coming into the Apple ecosystem you can put behind the concerns of hardwares and raw specs. Just enjoy the experience.
