OnePlus 8 – Specs, Price, And Review

To be candid. Upon the initial unveiling of the OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro, it appeared as though history was repeating itself with the release of the 7 series from the previous year. The OnePlus 8 Pro boasts an upgraded display with a higher resolution and refresh rate, alongside improved camera capabilities. Additionally, the device offers coveted features such as wireless charging and IP-rated waterproofing.

The OnePlus 8, while a notable device in its own right, was somewhat overshadowed by the 8 Pro upon release. Furthermore, its initial price point, which had previously been a major selling point for the brand, is no longer as competitive. Naturally, this constituted an initial response solely predicated on the information I had consumed via digital media, owing to the scrapping of the physical product unveiling.

As the lockdown restrictions begin to ease and life slowly returns to a sense of normalcy, I was able to procure the highly sought-after OnePlus 8. Following my initial doubts, it’s now time to evaluate whether this phone possesses sufficient merit to alter my perspective. Priced above the Rs. 40,000 mark, the device has entered the realm of flagship smartphones, putting it in direct competition with previous flagship models from tech giants Samsung and Apple.

The OnePlus 8 can be considered as the next iteration of the OnePlus 7, with the potential to eventually supersede the OnePlus 7T. The latest iteration of the device boasts of two significant upgrades, namely the integration of 5G connectivity and a slightly revamped design, when compared to its predecessor, the 7T.

The OnePlus 8 is equipped with the Snapdragon 865 chipset, offering superior performance and efficiency compared to its predecessor. Although 5G technology may not currently hold significant relevance in India, its potential benefits cannot be overlooked. Therefore, it is prudent to adopt this technology.
