About this iPhone

The iPhone 8 was released alongside the iPhone X in Apple’s first dual launch of two line-up leading phones. The iPhone 8 features a clear 4K camera in the rear and a 7-megapixel camera in the front. Similar to the iPhone 7, the phone is splash, dust and water resistant but is not considered waterproof by Apple. The iPhone 8 features a beautiful aluminum alloy case with a large glass cover on the back and an almost edge to edge screen on the front. The phone is still missing a headphone jack but Apple did manage to include wireless charging thanks to the glass backing on the device. As newer devices have moved to a screen only display, this may be the last generation iPhone to feature a home button.

Common questions

Is MQ7A2J/A the same as A1906?

Not exactly. MQ7A2J/A usually points to a specific retail configuration, while A1906 identifies the broader Apple hardware family. Always check the EMC and model identifier too.

What iPhone is model A1906?

A1906 is the Apple A-number shown for this iPhone family. Use the order number, EMC, and model identifier on this page to narrow the exact configuration.

What does EMC 3171 mean?

The EMC number is another Apple hardware identifier. It helps separate closely related models that may share a similar name, year, or A-number.

Can the RAM or SSD be upgraded?

Check the spec table for the exact configuration. Many newer Apple Silicon Macs have memory and storage integrated into the board, so RAM and SSD upgrades are often not practical after purchase.

What macOS versions work with this model?

Use the model identifier, release year, and processor family from the spec table when checking macOS compatibility. Compatibility can change as Apple releases new macOS versions.

Is this iPhone still worth buying used?

It can be, depending on price, battery health, memory, storage, and condition. Compare this exact order number and model identifier against similar Techable listings before buying.

How much is this iPhone worth?

Value depends on RAM, storage, battery health, cosmetic condition, accessories, and market demand. Use the SellMac path on this page for a quote or use the identifiers here when comparing resale prices.

What should I search if this page is not the exact configuration?

Search the order number first when available, then compare the A-number, EMC, model identifier, year, chip, RAM, and storage. The same A-number can cover more than one configuration.
