OnePlus 8 Pro Review: Finally, a Proper OnePlus Flagship | OnePlus 8 Pro Price: Rs. 54,999 By Gadgets 360

The 1+8 Pro is a dream, come true for many fans of the company for three main reasons. First, it is the first phone to get an IP 68 leading for dust and water resistance. Secondly, it also supports wireless charging again up first in a one plus device, and thirdly, it does cost a lot less than it does in international markets, and it's still a lot cheaper than flagships from Samsung and Apple. However, the big question is: should you be paying up to sixty thousand rupees on the OnePlus 8 pro well, stick around find out in our review now before we go ahead, don't forget to subscribe to our Channel and also hit that Bell icon, so the personal whenever we push out at your video, even though the 1+8 throw is heavier and bulkier than the tap absolutely enjoyed using it, it's not the most comfortable phone to use one-handed, but the build quality and display more than make up for it. The first thing I wanted to try out was the ip68 rating and why I didn't go too crazy. It easily survived splashes and a few dunks in water.

Next I wanted to check out that sweet, 120, Hertz refresh rate on the display. Now the one plus a probe can run at 120 Hertz and the quad HD plus resolution simultaneously, which is something you still can't do on Samsung's s20 series content looks good even at the lower resolution, but I personally prefer the native quad HD plus resolution for that added sharpness. I'm generally, not a big fan of the pre-applied screen protectors on smartphones and the one used on the eighth row is especially annoying. This is because the eight pros display actually curves on the sides, but the screen protector doesn't go all the way to the edges. As a result, the display does offer a more immersive feel, but this also means your fingers are almost always touching.

The screen palm rejection works well, and I was able to use the phone even when the sides of my hand were clearly in contact with the display. Trying to take photos with one hand can get a little tricky, as I did in depth. Ably end up hitting another menu that I didn't want to. However, the bundle case does help in this case. Another feature present only in the 8 Pro is motion.

Graphic smooth named when enabled it bumps up the frame rate of any video for a smoother soap, opera-like feel when viewing it in full screen the comfort zone toggling. The display settings is also new and behaves similar to Apple's true tone. It adjusts to displace color temperature based on the ambient light around you, the displays, vibrant colorful and has good brightness, the cedar speakers sound great, just like on the 1+8. They are loud, sound, balanced and the Dolby Atmos setting helps improve the quality and spatial separation. HDR content also looks very good and mostly streaming.

Apps such as Netflix had no problem playing back HDR content on the eighth row. The eight rows in display fingerprint sensor works very well without any fuss. You can also use face recognition which I found to be equally fast. The Glacial green color that I received looks beautiful, and I love. The feel of the frosted glass pack can get a little slippery, but at least fingerprints aren't a big problem overall.

The OnePlus 8 pro is very well-built, feels very premium, and it also looks great in this glacial green color. It is a little big and single-handed use, isn't the easiest, but I did get used to it after a few days of using it. The software experience is very similar to the one plus 8 oxygen. Os feels snappy and Android 10 in general runs very well app and gaming performance was pretty solid, too Real Racing 3, look great on the pros display games with colorful graphics such as hungry dragon and hawk looked especially good. Some titles like for tonight can also take advantage of the high refresh rate display and run at higher frame rate.

Now, traditionally, OnePlus phones have had relatively weak cameras, and I'm quite excited to see if OnePlus has closed the gap that flagship from Samsung, Google and Apple. On this run, the primary camera gets a big update. It's a 48, megapixel Sony imx6 89 sensors, and we'll see what it can do very soon. You also get an 8 megapixel, telephoto camera, a 48 megapixel wide-angle camera and the new 5 megapixel color filter camera. Unfortunately, I couldn't test how the color filter camera as it is disabled in the current firmware now this happened after some users discovered that this camera could actually see through some thin layers of plastic and even some pieces of clothing causing a huge privacy approach.

However, OnePlus has told us that they will be enabling it via a future update, so it's interesting to see how they fix it when shooting under good light. The main camera captures very good details with a neutral color tone. Edges of objects were well-defined, textures look natural and there was no noticeable noise even on the sides of the frame. Dynamic range is also particularly good, with lots of visible detail in the shadows and highlights photos from the wide-angle camera look good too and like the 1+8, the colors are well-balanced and in line with the main sensor, one plus a pro automatically switches to the wide-angle camera and any of the super macro mode. When you bring the phone close enough to a subject, shots look very good and a mile better compared to the dedicated two megapixel macro camera on the 1 plus 8.

Next, we put the 8 rows hybrid zoom, to the test. Naturally, I had to compare it with one of the best zoom cameras around the galaxy s, 20 plus our three exhumed, the eighth row and s 20 plus, are quite evenly matched Samsung, has a slightly better exposure overall and is less aggressive with the sharpening, but the eighth row isn't far behind. Then exhume is usually a sweet spot for the s 20 plus, and here the eighth row manages to match Samsung in texture, quality and colors. The only real difference between the two shots is that the s 20 plus lifts the shadows, giving the objects more depth, but other than that, it's very close. Finally, at 30x zoom the galaxy s 20 plus does the best job of cleaning up noise, but at the cost of details, the 8 pro, on the other hand, actually manages slightly better details.

But the trade-off is slight grain in the image overall I'm actually pretty impressed with the pro zoom capabilities, and also quite surprised that OnePlus isn't making a bigger deal about it. Then it should in low light. The main sensor captures when little landscape shots with good details. Nights cape helps fix the exposure a bit and also produces slightly better textures. The wide-angle camera suffers the most in low light, but nights cape helps salvage the shot.

The pro doesn't switch to the telephoto camera in a very dim lighting, as it simply does a digital zoom using the main sensor for selfies. This phone uses a Sony, IMF 471 16 megapixel sensor, which is possibly the weakest of the lot it handles HDR well and captures decent skin tones, but skin textures look heavily processed, even under good lighting indoors, with good artificial lighting. We did manage to get some decent results. However, in very low light, skin textures appeared soft and details weren't great. The screen flash is quite effective for exposure, although it doesn't help much with details or textures.

The OnePlus, a pro can shoot up to 4k 60fps in standard video mode image. Quality is very good. Exposure is handled well, and the footage is stabilized too. Here you can switch between the main wide-angle and telephoto camera, while recording up to 4k 60fps, which is something not many flagships offer HDR video is a great addition to and makes a big difference to the dynamic range it's most effective if you're shooting a subject directly against a light source. Now, let's talk about the battery life in general, I found the battery life to be excellent as the 8 throw easily lasted a day and a half a typical usage with the display resolution and refresh rate at the highest respective set, the just 30 T charger tops out the battery completely in under an hour which is very quick for fast wireless charging.

You will need the special walk, judge, 30 wireless charger, which I couldn't test out since one plus then send it with the phone. The April, however, does work with any QI wireless charger. So it's not a big problem. Diverse wireless charging works well to simply turn it on and place any compatible device on the phone's back to begin charging OnePlus has had a good streak over the years, but now its phones has felt as complete as the OnePlus a pro we are now dealing with a proper flagship smartphone, the kind that can go toe-to-toe with the best out there, I would say. If you have, the budget then skip the eight altogether and just go for the eight pro.

Instead, cameras have always been a hot-button subject for OnePlus devices, and this time it's no different I'm curious to see how the company redeems this color filter camera, but other than that I have no complaints with the rest of the rear sensors. However, I do think it's high time. We got a better selfie camera, at least in the pro models at a starting price of fifty-four thousand nine hundred. Ninety-nine rupees, the OnePlus 8 pro, is still a lot more affordable than the Samsung Galaxy s 20, which starts at 70 thousand rupees, and it's definitely a lot cheaper than Apple's iPhone 11 Pro, which is well above a lakh rupee. So, if you think about it, even the prices of the OnePlus devices have been increasing year-on-year.

It is still a flagship killer in the grand scheme of things. So thanks for watching our review of the OnePlus 8 pro, let us know your thoughts in the comments and as always, for everything backlog on a gadget, 360, calm.
