iPhone 8: Worth the wait?

My refurbished iPhone 6 is starting to have technical issues. The "phantom" phone (faulty digitizer) and the phone turns itself off on occasion. It's obviously due to the age of the phone.
Question is, should I put up with these glitches for the time and wait for the launch of the new iPhone, or will it be too long of a wait at the risk of my phone completely shorting out before it comes out?

I am gonna wait it out and see what the fuss is all about. If I'm not impressed I'll go with a 7 or something.

Wait it out, if you don't care for the 8 then the other models will be cheaper than they are now.

Start backing it up more often in case it does fail. If it does fail, try using an old one for a couple weeks.
Best option is to wait until new one is released. You can either buy the new one or buy the same one you would buy now with a good discount since it is an "old" model.

The supply of the completely remodeled iPhone 8 is supposed to be very constrained possibly until next year, but I'd still wait if you can. There will be plenty of new 7s models available at launch. Plus a month from now the same money will get you a phone a generation newer.

It's only about 5 weeks away. Worth the wait, if for anything the price drop on current models.

They usually release in September/October. This close I would just wait.

I didn't see it mentioned, but the iPhone 8 is rumored to start at $1100 or so.
