One plus 8

 Here's the One Plus 8, the OnePlus device for people who want this year's model, but maybe aren't into some of the wackier ideas that OnePlus is experimenting with its Pro models. It starts atR 48,000, which is Rs15,000 less than the Pro device that Dieter's taking a look at in his review, but all of the OnePlus essentials are still here. It's still got a great screen. It's still got great battery life. It's fast charging, it's still fast, and it's take on Android is still just as clean as ever. And you're getting a screen with a 90 hertz refresh rate, which is honestly, still so good that I wish it was a standard-issue feature for most modern flagships. Now, if you think that sounds like a fairly traditional OnePlus device, then you're not wrong, but the difference this year is that with the 8 Pro, OnePlus has finally addressed some of those issues that OnePlus fans have been asking about for years. It's a device that really makes a serious attempt to break the OnePlus mold. The OnePlus 8 hasn't quite made that same attempt, but it's still a good phone at a good price, which really begs the question, is a good OnePlus device that doesn't break the mold worth it? Or do you need to spend the extra money on the Pro?


But the OnePlus 8 is a solidly-specced device. It's powered by a Snapdragon 865, starts with eight gigabytes of RAM and 128 gigabytes of storage, but I've been using a model with 12 gigabytes of RAM and 256 gigabytes of storage. There's 5G onboard, Wi-Fi 6, all that good stuff, and that's a lot of spec for Rs 48,000.Especially compared to, oh, I don't know, the, pretty much identically priced entry-level iPhone 11. So essentially, you're getting most of the internal specs of the OnePlus 8 Pro in the OnePlus 8. The exception that OnePlus is keen to emphasize is that the Pro is using LPDDR5 RAM, while the 8 is using LPDDR4X, but I struggled to notice the difference in real-world usage. I mean, the two phones even look damn near identical from the front because they both have that same hole-punch, selfie cutout at the top left of the screen. Yes, the 8 screen is ever so slightly smaller at 6.55 inches, compared to the 6.78 inches on the Pro, but the two phones are basically the same width, so they don't really feel any different to hold. I mean, seriously, when I was taking comparison photographs, I occasionally forgot which one was which. I will say that the 8 screen seems to curve ever so slightly less around the sides of the device, which is maybe why I didn't experience the accidental touch issues that Dieter had with the Pro, but honestly, it's really subtle, and you have to really be looking for it to actually notice it. All of which is to say, the OnePlus 8 is not a device to get if you're after a smaller phone.

Personally, I'd love to see OnePlus experiment with a smaller device, but hey, maybe that's just me. Of course, the screens aren't actually identical. With the 8, you're getting a 1080p, 90 hertz display, with a peak brightness of 1100 nits. Meanwhile, the 8 Pro goes up to 1440p, 120 hertz, and 1300 nits peak brightness. But please, don't let this numbers-to-numbers spec comparison lead you to believe that the 8 has a bad screen. It doesn't, it's great, it's bright, it's vibrant, and it's yet more evidence that OnePlus really, really knows how to put the right display on a phone. Even compared to the 8 Pro, the 8's display still feels smooth. It took me sitting with both phones side-by-side to spot the difference, and even then, it wasn't a night and day comparison. The phone feels nice and snappy to use. Apps open quickly, games run well. You're getting a flagship Android experience here. Oh, and OxygenOS is just as out of the way as ever, which is exactly what I want out of a manufacturer's operating system. I'm looking at you, LG. So I've been scurrying around the issue for a little while, but what are the differences between the 8 and the 8 Pro that actually matter? Well, to my mind, there are three main differences that you need to worry about, person who watches YouTube reviews of OnePlus phones. Namely, IP ratings, wireless charging and cameras. So let's just come out and say it. The OnePlus 8 doesn't do wireless charging. It doesn't do the fancy 30 watt wireless charging, the OnePlus 8 Pro, and it doesn't do the more basic.

This is the best phone which I have ever seen .
