A week with the OnePlus 8 Pro! (Review)

I am an iPhone user and, if happily used iPhones for years now, in fact, my daily driver is the tennis max which I love by the way, but I have a buddy named Matt, who truly believes that OnePlus and Android is the perfect combination for a smartphone and with OnePlus just releasing the OnePlus 8 pro recently Mates challenged me to put down the iPhone and pick up a 1 plus a pro and try that for a week to see if I can be convinced. Let's do it. Let's take a look at the OnePlus 8 pro the OnePlus. A pro has a six point: seven eight inch fluid AMOLED 128 Hertz display with a resolution of 3168 by 1440 and a pixel density of 513 pixels per inch. It runs a Qualcomm snapdragon, 865, CPU and x 55 5g chipset and Arena 650 GPU, either eight or twelve gigabytes of RAM, either 128 or 256 gigabytes of storage, a giant 4510 William hour battery 30 watt wireless charging and runs oxygen OS, which is one plus a skinned version of Android 10. On the camera front, the OnePlus 8 pro has a 16 megapixel selfie pinhole camera in the top left of the display capable of 1080p video at 30 frames a second and on the backside.

For yes, I, said four cameras which include a 48 megapixel primary camera, followed by an 8, megapixel telephoto lens camera and ultra-wide camera, there's also 48 megapixels and a 5 megapixel color filter camera there's also a dual LED flash on the back there as well. The OnePlus, a pro will shoot 4k at 30 and 60 frames. A second has a super slo-mo video feature that shoots 720p at 480 frames. It has the super, slow motion, video feature that shoots 720p at 480 frames. A second and 1080p at 240 frames.

A second- and here it is, you know my first hands-on impressions phone was I was just kind of blown away. It is a seriously nice well-built premium feeling phone, and should be considering. It goes for $8.99 for the lower spec model and $9.99 for the one over here at these prices. This is a flagship phone and OnePlus does seem to have delivered. That I was really impressed with the speeding responsiveness of Android running on this phone as an Apple user I'm, pretty used to a polished user experience and walking into this I wasn't sure what to expect from this OS and his hard work.

It has also been a bit of an eye-opener just to see how similar, iOS and Android have become, but the whole swipe up swipe down left right when you get the picture and outside of FaceTime iMessage is what I'm using on the Apple side. Google has their own equivalents and all the other absolutes are the same. But all of that being said, though, let's see how well this phone takes video in picture. Let's get to it. What can I say about the camera on this phone other than I was thoroughly impressed.

These shots were taken on a clear morning in my neighborhood, and the quality of the HDR was superb. Coming from an iPhone I was very impressed by the image quality on this phone. Okay. Here's an example of the 4k video of the OnePlus 8 Pro when compared to a high-end SLR like our Panasonic gh4, that we use here in the studio I chose the studio because it's got the studio lighting right there. It's got the same backdrop: we can crop them so that they match and gives you a good comparison of the glass to get with the OnePlus a pro and a high-end digital SLR.

Here's an example of the 4k video shot outside on a sunny day. The autofocus was spot-on, with the changes in focal distance and the sky was a fantastic blue. Thanks to that, HDR here are two examples of the slow-motion video captures from the phone on. The top is 1080p at 240 frames. A second and at the bottom is 720p at 480 frames a second.

This was shot in a well at sunny day in. Under these conditions, the slow motion recording looks great when lighting conditions aren't as great. The noise is very visible in the low lighting in the slow-motion video. As you see here, let's talk about what we get in the box included in the Box. Is the warp charts, 30 watt power adapter, which is absolutely massive, but promises a 50% charge in 23 minutes? The 1+8 pro also has wireless charging, which previous versions from OnePlus didn't have using their special 30 watt wireless charger.

You can get 50 percent battery in 30 minutes to get that 30 watt wireless charging, though you need to have the one plus 30 watt charger s. Energy chargers aren't capable of putting out that high of wattage bunchy charging is compatible with the OnePlus, a pro ok, it's the time. The show we talk about the thing, we're testing or reviewing this case, the OnePlus a pro. Let's talk about the cons. I did not like the fingerprint reader.

If that functionality was not reliable, I set up like three times, and each time was just, just unreliable. It didn't work half of the time the face unlock functionality. Android is not great at all: it's not reliable unless you're in a well-lit area, it doesn't work at all in the dark and that's a real bummer. That's a place where Apple and iOS have just hands down, beat Android and the hardware with their biometrics. Just no question also I'm not a fan of the curved sides, mostly because it causes the size of the screen to be kind of blurry.

When you look at it head-on, there's no dig against this phone or Samsung or any of the companies out there making curved displays it just doesn't do it for me, I would rather have it be an edged edge display with no bezel but just sharp lines, because I think that's a better use the real estate. All of those nitpick things aside, though, I really liked the phone I mean the performance of Android running on this hardware. It was it just a joy to use. It was fast, it was beautiful, the mean the display is just brilliant and sharp. Furthermore, it is a fantastic looking phone and operates really well if I wasn't stuck in an iOS and Apple ecosystem, where I needed to be able to use macOS and talk to my parents and my kids on the iPads and iPhones easily I would seriously consider switching Android.

Furthermore, it blew me away at how far along in the game, the hardware has become for allies. These are these companies like OnePlus. So if you are looking for a brand-new Android phone- and you have the mind to spend on the flagship consider buying this one plus a pro, it is a phenomenal phone that lasers Dumas gonna, do it for our video today, I genuine hope you Android watch as much as I enjoyed making it with love.
