OnePlus 8 5G 8GB 128GB
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.
Frame to frame without a hitch
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.
What a shot
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.
Performance Plus in the OnePlus
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.
The power of 5G
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.

OnePlus 8 Onyx Black 8+128GB IN2010B review
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...

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).- Specs

OnePlus 8 Onyx Black 8+128GB IN2010B review
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.
OnePlus 8 Onyx Black 8+128GB IN2010B review
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.
OnePlus 8 Onyx Black 8+128GB IN2010B review
OnePlus has in the past positioned its phones as “flagship killers” that offered high-end hardware at a lower price than top-tier rivals, and the latest OnePlus 8 is no different in promising good value.
OnePlus 8 Onyx Black 8+128GB IN2010B review
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.
OnePlus 8 Onyx Black 8+128GB IN2010B review
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

The phone to beat in 2020
OnePlus 8 Onyx Black 8+128GB IN2010B review
The OnePlus 8 is a great phone at a good price, particularly when you consider you’re getting 5G flagship performance at £599, which undercuts rivals such as Samsung’s Galaxy S20 by about £300. You get a smartphone experience that’s second to none.
OnePlus 8 Onyx Black 8+128GB IN2010B review
What you are getting with the OnePlus 8 is a rock-solid Android phone that doesn’t slow-burn a hole in your bank account. It has a very likeable personality and there is that simplicity with OxygenOS which remains priceless.
