Final Verdict
When it comes down to decision-making time, concentrate on your needs. If you need a phone (or want an Apple Watch), then you only have two choices in this group: iPhone X and iPhone 8. The iPhone 8 is an excellent entry-level smartphone, and the price is much less than its big brother. The cameras on both phones offer cutting-edge technology. However, if you’re familiar with iPhones and can afford the X price, you won’t be disappointed with this powerhouse. Anyone who wants a small-form tablet can’t go wrong with the iPad mini 4. Graphics professionals and power users tend to go with the iPad Pro. For most, the iPad 6th generation offers plenty of power and options at a reasonable price. The iPod touch is the best choice for anyone who doesn’t need a phone but wants a small music player or gaming device. It isn’t as powerful at the other iOS devices, but it isn’t as expensive either, and it provides access to Apple’s world of apps, games, and music.
