iPhone 8 price in South Africa
A certified pre-owned iPhone 8 costs R3 600 at iPhoneVault SA for the 64GB model, with a 6-month warranty. Expect to pay up to about R4 000 for higher storage or a specific colour. The iPhone 8 is the cheapest way into an iPhone, with Touch ID and wireless charging, but it stopped getting new iOS versions after iOS 16, so some apps will eventually stop supporting it.

Is the iPhone 8 waterproof?
No iPhone is fully waterproof. The iPhone 8 is rated IP67 (up to 1 metre for 30 minutes) under laboratory conditions when new. Seals age over time, so a pre-owned phone should be treated as splash-resistant only, and liquid damage is not covered by warranty.
Which charger does the iPhone 8 use?
The iPhone 8 charges through a Lightning port (the older Apple connector). It supports Qi wireless charging. See iPhone chargers, cases and screen protectors.
