The OnePlus 8 5G is one of the more affordable 5G phones on the market. But there are many more reasons why you should check it out.
The 6.55" Fluid AMOLED Display goes seamlessly from one frame to the next, while the 90Hz refresh rate means you can swipe, scroll and navigate with ease. The colours on the display are bright and vibrant, backed up by HDR10+ High Dynamic Range video technology. Rounding it all off is the dual stereo speakers and a cinematic 3D listening experience with Dolby Atmos support.
You'll capture some great shots with the 48MP Triple Camera system. Perfect portraits and professional video footage with greatly improved stabilisation are easy to achieve. The 116-degree ultra-wide-angle camera lets you capture the most beautiful panoramas, and the new macro lens allows you to take close ups 'til your heart's content. For selfies, there's a good quality 16MP front camera.
The OnePlus 8 5G includes the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 865, which delivers up to 25% faster performance than previous generations. Meanwhile, you can transfer photos, videos and files in the blink of an eye with the UFS 3.0 file management system.
With 5G you can connect to several networks at the same time giving you extended coverage and faster downloads. This means movie downloads in just seconds, near-instant photo sharing and network coverage like never before. Because it automatically switches between 5G and non-5G networks, battery life is prolonged and your connection remains intact.
Manufacturer: OnePlus
OnePlus announced two new OnePlus phones in mid-April, the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro. At a $699 starting price, the OnePlus 8 is the least expensive 5G phone available today and only gives up a few things seen in the OnePlus 8 Pro.
Support for low-band and mid-band 5G; 90 Hz display; Ample RAM and fast internal storage; Stunning color options; Responsive Oxygen OS UI
No wireless charging; No water/dust resistant rating
Now that OnePlus has established itself as one of the major players in the smartphone world, there are certain things you can take for granted about its devices. They’ll likely have great screens, performance, and battery life.
90Hz display; Great battery life; Solid performance
Camera quality could still be better; No wireless charging; No IP rating (on the unlocked model)
OnePlus exploded on the scene in 2014 with marketing swagger not befitting its status as a startup that had never launched a phone, but the company has matured and proved itself over the years.
Display The 90Hz OLED is smooth with excellent brightness and colors; Alert slider Great tactility and a super-convenient way to change your ringer mode; Fingerprint sensor The in-display fingerprint sensor is faster and more accurate—it's as good as the old capacitive sensors now.
No wireless charging The OnePlus 8 doesn't have wireless charging (Warp or standard) like the Pro; Macro camera The macro camera on this phone is not very good, and it replaced the vastly more useful telephoto lens from the 7T. This was a mistake.
Being happy with what you have is easy as long as you don’t dream too much
Killer display; Exemplary build quality; Fun cameras; fast charging; 5G and Wi-Fi 6
Software bugs; Sometimes software doesn’t make a lot of sense; No zoom lens on OnePlus 8; high price tag in Canada
The OnePlus 8 is the 2020 line-up of smartphone from OnePlus. The device was announced alongside the Pro version . The phone specifications starts from a 6.55-inches FHD+ display with a Fluid AMOLED panel bearing 1080 x 2400 pixels resolution. It has 20:9 aspect ratio, and upto 90Hz refresh rate.
My gut instinct is just telling me to tell you to buy this phone. It starts at $699 and has a ton of great features. If it weren’t for an ever-so-slightly inconsistent camera, I’d already be calling it POTY (phone of the year).

With the 7 and 7 Pro, OnePlus made the choice for consumers very simple. The Pro packed so much more of a punch whilst the 7 felt like a year-old smartphone in a fancy new dress. With the 7T and 7T Pro, the gap was reduced significantly, almost to the point where many consumers opted for the cheaper...
Does the smaller, less-feature-rich OnePlus 8 deserve your cash, or should you stick to the true flagship?...
Gorgeous design Good display Outstanding performance Affordable Formidable battery life
No wireless charging Middling camera Not as full-featured as some competitors
When smartphone companies launch new flagship models, we expect significant improvements over the previous models. Generally the OnePlus 8 comes with overall feature and performance improvements, but the camera system feels a little downgrade from OnePlus 7T.
The OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro have suffered no shortage of leaks in the months leading up to today, but they are now truly official. I’ve got to admit, writing OnePlus reviews gets pretty repetitive — but mostly in a good way.
