Flagship-grade tech at a palatable price - the OnePlus formula continues to work wonders

Exceptional performance and great battery life, Beautiful display and punchy speakers, Cameras take high quality pics in most conditions

No wireless charging a backwards step, Camera zoom abilities limited

The OnePlus 11 is an early candidate for smartphone of the year!

Improved camera, Unique design, The charger is STILL included in the box, Brilliant display, Insane battery life

Front-facing camera is subpar, Slower charging than the OnePlus 10T

The OnePlus 11 is a great all-rounder, hitting most criteria for what a flagship smartphone should offer. It looks premium, boasts a gorgeous display, high-end performance, all-day battery life and, crucially, impressive camera chops with no immediate pitfalls.

No wireless charging, Basic selfie camera setup

With the OnePlus 11, the manufacturer stripped a few features down, left us with all the essentials, but does them very well. The latest flagship has a stunning display, speedy performance and a decent camera system.

Fantastic, bright display with smooth refresh, Software is customisable and bloat-free, Strong triple camera system, Super fast charging

Questions over glass durability, seems to scratch easily, Photo results from camera often contrast-heavy/dark, No wireless charging

Few steps forward, several steps back. The OnePlus 11 promises a premium, flagship-class smartphone experience with its Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, improved imaging sensors, UFS 4.0 storage, and long-term OS updates.

Well-priced for a 2023 flagship, Four years of OS feature updates and five years of security patches, Fast and stable networking, Improved 50 MP IMX890 main camera and macro mode with 48 MP ultra-wide, Color-accurate display in the Natural profile, Fast CPU performance

No wireless charging, Slower USB 2.0 standard, PWM at all brightness levels, No 120 fps support in games, High power consumption in idle, Battery run times lower than the competition with smaller batteries

OnePlus never seems to disappoint in offering its fanbase consistent refreshes of phones. The latest to enter the lineup is the OnePlus 11 5G. This new addition to the company’s portfolio shows that OnePlus has moved somewhat away from a total disruptor to a polished phone maker.

The OnePlus 11 is an affordable pick for buyers who want something unique, and offers a more artistic take on smartphone photography. Its lack of durability is a bit worrisome, though.

Unique photography features, Smooth performance all around, Clean and simple interface

Glossy and slippery, No IP68 water resistance, Camera array isn't versatile

In general terms, the OnePlus 11 isn’t a massive upgrade, and with a lack of a full IP rating and wireless charging it’s even a bit of a downgrade in some respects. If you’ve got less than £750 to spend on your next phone, though, then the OnePlus 11 will handle more or less everything – including...

The OnePlus 11 is every bit the flagship smartphone but it doesn't cost quite as much as some of the other top players. You can expect a stunning screen, a stylish design, a seriously good snapper and speedy performance. The only downside is the battery which doesn't last as long as we'd have hoped.

6.7-inch QHD+ LTPO display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, Impressive point-and-shoot photography, 100W fast charging

Underwhelming battery life, No MicroSD card slot, Weak zoom on the camera

Overall the OnePlus 11 is a solid phone with a good set of cameras (in most conditions) but it’s hampered by the latest version of OxygenOS, which won’t be for everyone.

Beautiful display, Good cameras, Quick performance, Great battery life, Fast 80W wired charging, The new OxygenOS update policy is great

No wireless charging, OxygenOS 13 is a downgrade from past versions, Only 2X telephoto lens zoom
