My Xperia XZ lags like hell while my X compact it still smooth. Idk why. And i own an iPhone 8 too i can say it does perform very well.

I agree. The SE has a faster chip, better battery life and longer support. It really depends on your budget, because if you can't afford to spend $400 on a smartphone, the 8 may be the best option. The SE is better except if you are a light user...

Yes. Any iPhone has the ability to run WhatsApp although the newer the phone, the better it will run.
