Wow!

This is huge.  This is a great and compelling reason to buy the iPhone 8.

Also, with  both cameras being equivalent and able to shoot in 4K, the iPhone 8 technically can become a 360 camera since it can simultaneously capture front and rear scenes. Just attach it to your helmet.

The iPhone 8 is PERFECT for doing YouTube Videos.  Just add an external microphone for better audio.

Give it 480fps slow motion at 720p and things get really interesting.

Marry this phone up with a hand-held Gimbal-Stabilizer PTZ mount and you have Hollywood in your hands.
