RANKED: The iPhones that give you the most bang for your buck, from the iPhone 6S to the iPhone X by Dave Smith on May 29, 2018, 12:01 PM Advertisement
 You don't need to spend $800 or more to get an incredible smartphone experience in 2018. You can find plenty of excellent smartphones around the $500 range. But what if you're only in the market for an iPhone? Not everyone wants the newest or most expensive iPhone available — plenty of people just want a great phone at a great value. Apple sells eight distinct iPhone models right now. Take a look at which ones give you the most bang for your buck: 8. iPhone X  Price: $999 for 64 GB, or $1,149 for 256 GB New technology doesn't come cheap. The iPhone X is the most expensive iPhone you can buy right now, as it's the newest and most futuristic smartphone Apple makes, with Face ID to replace Touch ID and its gorgeous OLED screen. The iPhone X starts at $150 more than the next most-expensive phone on the list — the iPhone 8 Plus with maxed-out storage — but the few differences between the iPhone X and iPhone 8 probably won't justify the price gap for many customers.
7. iPhone 8 Plus  Price: $799 for 64 GB, or $949 for 256 GB The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus share many of the same features as the iPhone X, including Apple's A11 Bionic chip that powers the phone, similar cameras on the front and back, and support for wireless charging. That said, the iPhone 8 isn't that much cheaper than the iPhone X. It costs $800 to start — almost $1,000 if you want more storage — but its design will feel very familiar if you've ever owned an iPhone 6, 6S, or 7. It also doesn't perform that much better compared to older iPhones; the exception is battery life, which is far better on the iPhone 8 Plus than any other iPhone available.
6. iPhone 8  Price: $699 for 64 GB, or $849 for 256 GB We're starting to get into the areas of better value. If you're okay with a smaller screen, no portrait mode, and not-as-crazy-good battery life, you can have all the benefits of the iPhone 8 Plus for $100 less by getting the normal iPhone 8. Still, you're paying $700 for an iPhone in 2018 that looks — and performs — similar to iPhone models that are two to three years old.
