I would like to know apart from bluetooth,

(1)- how does the T8i compare to the T3i rebel?

(2)- Are the T3i kit lens interchangeable with the T8i comfortably (without adapters)?

Is the T3i what you have right now?

Question 2, your kit lens I'm assuming is the 18-55mm EF-S which will mount on any Canon APS-C DSLR save for the ancient ones that are EF only. Yes, your kit lens will go onto the T8i without adapter if you are just looking to buy the body only.

Question 1, DPReview has a comparison tool.

By the look of it, take the 80D and shoves it into a rebel T8i body. So, you lose the weather sealing, heavier build, larger viewfinder, AFMA (AF fine tunning). However, the 4k video doesn't look cropped and the buffer is actually large. You get the double control wheel function from the 10D-90D and 77D.

The AF is superior to the T3i and image quality should be less noise and more dynamic range.

An impressive camera to me at least and a substantial upgrade from the T3i.
