Yesterday, after the announcement of the second generation iPhone SE, Apple removed the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus from the official website.
Why
Naturally, the main reason is the newa smartphone that looks no different from the old ones, but at the same time costs less (from $399 in the US) and looks the same. So there is no point in selling the 8 anymore.
NB: Like I said in the video, the iPhone 8 is being * replaced * by the iPhone SE.
The iPhone 8 Plus will * still be sold * through channel partners. For now.

The interesting thing is that the Plus version can be found atother sellers. Perhaps Apple decided to do this so that users have a choice, because the iPhone SE 2020 has only a 4.7-inch display, while the iPhone 8 Plus has a 5.5-inch display.
Let us remind you that iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus were presented in2017 along with the iPhone X. The devices received water-resistant glass cases and wireless charging. In addition, they were equipped with new processors and an updated camera.
