Just orderd a oneplus 8 pro 128gb. I think it has the better value because of the ips rating, 120hz display and the better ram. You said ram was equal but it isn't, the 8 pro has ddr5 vs the ddr4 ram in the normal version. This makes a pro version much more future proof imo. I try to do 3 years with a phone. Liked the video keep it up.
@eric t it's his initials MKB with HD as in Hi-def. He covered it in a video a year or two ago. It was just what he came up with when he was younger and he stuck with it.
The best reviewer hands down. Mentioned every spec of the phone without beign repetitive and compared everything with other flagshipsin a good way. Awesome💯
OnePlus has played it very smart and they've achieved what they wanted. They priced low at the start with great specs and then started boosting the price each year. They've built the same kind of fanbase that Apple and Samsung have in a relatively short amount of time in comparison. They can now charge flagship prices because they know they have that fanbase that will buy and promote them no matter what.
I currently have the 7 Pro and have ordered the 8 Pro. I love Oxygen OS and use my phone for business and pleasure and do a lot of spreadsheets, word processing, watching videos as well as the odd game of COD Mobile. Hence, I like to replace them every year and, for me, OnePlus always hits the sweet spot. I have never been into Apple products because they all look and feel the same. For me, the open nature and the ability to customise Android is important and I always go for a powerful model. I have never liked the Samsung OS, although I did try a Note 9 but only kept it for six months before buying the 7 Pro (I just did not like the OS and the S Pen hardly ever came out after the initial novelty value). I have tried the Huawei Mate products (I had the Mate 10 Pro) but have since ruled them out because of the issues with the lack of Google services. Therefore, for me, OnePlus is my goto brand and I have never been disappointed.
I'm the other way around. I love oxygen os customisation and simplicity. My last was oneplus 5. But i've been using note series since note 2 until note 10+. My collection of notes over the years is too many and i can't live without s pen. So samsung note series is my go to since no other phone can compete with stylus (moto g stylus announce recently just so weak compare to note 10+). Looking forward for note 20 series.
same here. Still using my 3T but need to upgrade this year. The battery life in my 3t has gone way down. If the 8pro was just $100 less, it would have been a no brainer. But with its current price tag, I don't know.
have a oneplus 3. the fact that ive been using my 3 for so long is why im likely to buy another oneplus. love the OS, and no other (or not many other flagship) phone has a physical slider to switch into silent mode. At the same time, i bought my oneplus 3 for only 350 USD back then...getting the 8 pro will be huge jump.
Im exactly like you guys... I have my 3t but battery is starting to grow short although it has been working fine even with broken screen for a year. I have the opportunity of buying it for 700 second handed like New. Should i buy it?
Finally coming closer to the 1Million Subscriber mark... I have been a long time subscriber And its been quite sometime but things have changed for the better...
Same here. Never had problems with my 7pro and love this phone. Disappointed that the plus 8 looks like the 7 with the only difference outside is the camera placements
Reviews are all over the place in the camera department. They range from being better than the s20 to decent. But they all agree the telephoto lens is below average .
Ordered the 8 pro, and should be getting it soon. For me, I love the oxygen OS. And I'm getting OnePlus mainly for that. Really glad that they improved so many aspects of the phone and made it a real flagship with a bit of more money, of course. Using 5T at the moment, very very happy with it for the last 2.5 years.
I'm still using the OP5 for almost 3 years and it still runs perfectly and battery didn't fuck up over time. Will surely upgrade to the 8 Pro or 8T pro by the end of the year.
@@rahulshenoy5737 sure. I've been using it for almost two days now. I basically watched all the reviews on TH-cam, so I know what I'm expecting. Very nicely built and quality camera. Overall experience is buttery smooth.
@@draculu Go for it man. Gotta admit, OP 5/5T are aging soo well that we don't really need to upgrade. I just really want to have a better camera to take photos during my hikes.
New subscriber here! Really enjoyed and appreciated the depth of your review on both the 8 and 8 pro. Personally, I have always loved OnePlus but had not owned one of their devices since the OG OnePlus one. After the 7pro and 7t being so highly rated and reviewed, I knew my switch from my Pixel 2 XL would be to a OnePlus device. The 8 pro was exactly what I was looking for, flagship specs, features, and camera for under $1k USD. I was able to snag a launch day bundle with the ultramarine blue 12/256 GB 8pro and am anxiously awaiting delivery. For me, I loved my experience with the original flagship killer and was more than willing to pay what is, to me, a totally reasonable price for the first true OnePlus flagship.
Hands down the best Android phone. It got the very buttery-smooth 120hz display, fast charging, good cameras, IP68 rating water resistance, big battery and most importantly, the very bright screen. Way better than the S20+.
Ordered my 8 Pro a few days ago, got that Ultramarine Blue coming, it's crazy how none of the stores here in the USA sell the 8 Pro in-store, only the 8 and 8t are what T-mobile seems to be pushing around here even though the Pro is far superior with one of the most impressive handset displays on the planet, had to order from Oneplus directly, can't wait 😁 thank you for such a thoughtful and thorough review, I'm stoked
Please Do a Comparison with the 8 Pro and 7 Pro. To show what the better buy is for those looking for best price to value Oneplus Pro phones. Thanks and looking forward to it.
Obliterate what? Why do you compared it to the Iphone? Why not samsung or LG? Iphone is an entirely different ego system. For that reason, they have their own customers so let it be that. If you want to compare than compare it to another Android phone with the same ego system.
@@forthosewhodare7325 even that, one plus added optimized battery charging (an iOS 13 feature, almost a year old now), but yeah you have to reckon one plus for copying good stuff and not like other android manufactures were they try to be clever and they can't
In two European hardware review sites which I respect, the S20+ or Ultra did pretty good on the battery test. On par with Find X2 Pro an iPhone 11 Pro. I think the Tech Chap is little biased or something went wrong with the test. Maybe the sort of test can make a difference. It's just like the camera. Some reviews like Tech chap are in favorite of the OP8 camera and in some comparison reviews the OP8 is still lagging
OP 8 Pro was third in MrWhoseTheBoss's video and second in Tech Chap's video. Difference is in Galaxy s20 ultra beating OP 8 pro in MrWhoseTheBosses's video. The reason for this difference is, Tech Chap was using the Exynos version of s20 ultra and MrWhoseTheBoss was using the SD865 version. It is well known Snapdragon is faster and more efficient (better battery life) than Exynos.
Watching this video in my one plus 7T pro bought 2 weeks ago. So far so good performance. I think one plus 7T pro is quite ok for next 2 years for me. One plus 8 or 8 Pro is not so great bump over 7t pro I think.
Hey mate , this oneplus 8 pro 12 gb 256 gb variant is available @ some 780 USD and oneplus 8 with 12 and 256 gbs is like somewhere @ 655 USD in INDIA . Which one should i Buy - normal OP 8 or OP 8 pro . Is it really worth to spend some more 130 USD on pro version , Please suggest 🙏🙏
Thanks Tom! Ur reviews really helped me while buying phone..Last year I bought 7T after watching your review and this year I will buy the S20 ultra..All the best TOM and keep doing this reviews....
I think this is best Quality detailed review of this Great phone of 2020 👌✌️😍thank you 😇 But im really Disappointed with the insane price, Oneplus phones are not Cheap anymore now 😢
I preordered my OP8 pro in black, Im excited to see a 120Hz screen as well as using the camera, I would use the colour filter to be more interesting with pictures, I will eventually get the wireless charger for it but I usually charge it wirelessly overnight. With regards to pricing I can understand why they have priced it higher than usual as they want to compete with the big dogs, but one thing that OP should do is compromise to get more people to have a OP phone, Apple have done it and its been successful
Just ordered mine 8pro cant wait to get! And i know they gonna Throw updates to all the things they Can ! Oneplus thinking on the people its the only brands WHO does that great job with the video love that phone !😍💪🏼
@@Saurabh-hx1yp ikr I don't know why people are saying it is disappointing they literally made a better camera than the largest phone manufacturer in the world.
@@lellienicole yeah it's not the best but it is certainly in top 4/5. It is cheaper, faster, has one of the best screens, great freaking software, awesome features. What else do one want???
Nice video. Here's a little advice for you, if you want to differentiate a bit from other tech reviewers. Try to go more in-depth into the slightly niche features of the phone. For example, some people, myself included are interested in seeing the manual controls of the camera too (Pro tab), to understand how low/high the ISO and shutter speed goes in manual mode, etc. Also, what customizations are there for the always on display, how many steps of audio volume you get, that sort of thing. No tech reviewer ever seems to touch on that stuff with very few exceptions.
Now their USP has gone, price, their selling point is now only Oxygen OS. Does this make the OnePlus 8 Pro a better choice than the Galaxy S20 or iPhone 11 Pro? For some people.
Selling points for me are: - Oxygen OS mostly - Dual Sim - Bright af screen - Good, just not the best camera - Still cheaper than Samsung where I live - physical stores and good experience with warranty service
@@GreNadeMusicNL only the software is a USP though? Samsung's are also dual sim. At least my European S10 is. Super useful. Good points though. And let's face the price will drop. Phones are always much more at launch.
@@MrGoobee they've taken the third spot. Which is great. Huawai were killing it but I've seen a noticeable drop in interest in the Mate 30 Pro and P40 Pro. For me I'm sticking with Samsung as they also sell watches/tablets and Your Phone on Windows has the most features on Modern Samsungs
@@bradavon it's a really big part of the phone, the software is extremely important in my opinion. I had a samsung with one ui, and absolutely hated it. The alert slider is also nice, local repair centres you can just walk in and get your screen or battery replaced without having to send it off and missing your phone for 2 weeks. All those things make it worth it for me
Great review! Always pleased to hear your thoughts about a new released phone, even more if it is a OnePlus device 🙌 Two questions: Do you think OnePlus 8 is well placed against some other flagship competitors such as Samsung Galaxy S20 (which will cost much less in some months) or Iphone 11? It continues to offer good value for the money or do you think you have to sacrifice to much good features? 🤔 And the other one, how did you get Google Now Feed on the Oxygen OS Shelf? Congratulations for another fantastic review! 😍🎉
@@Thetechchap Just discovered that this is something that has just arrived with OnePlus series 8 and it was available before in some variants. I'm a proud user of OnePlus 6T and I totally agree, OxygenOS is awesome even though Android 10 on my device came in with some software issues that haven't been solved yet. I mean, most of the S20 Ultra features are still present in S20, but it is not the case in the OnePlus 8, but I get your point. Thanks for the answer! I really love your videos 🙌
My most significant upgrades for past 6 years. HTC ONE -> Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus -> OnePlus 7 Pro..and looks like I man not goding to be upgrading for at least 2 morse years.
@@Jan-rn3vj no not really in some cases the s10 is better but in other cases the oneplus 8 pro is better, id pick the s10 camera over the oneplus camera but as an overall phone its definitely the 8 pro
I hope you can answer this, I'm considering buying the OnePlus 8 pro and you have said that you've been using it for a couple of weeks, there are some issues within oneplus 8 pro indian units having issues for displays, have you also experienced that issues?
Yeah but it's still really a flagship killer when we compare it with samsung or other companies...and 8 pro cost 54,999 india...so it's a killer for sure 😂😂
Fantastic video as always Tom. Much love from Ireland 🇮🇪. Hope you're staying safe. I bought the Pro model on launch day & it's due to come this coming week ☺️☺️☺️. I got the glacial green colour which I originally didn't like when I saw the leaks but looks so much better than I first thought. Am patiently waiting for the wireless charger to come back in stock & for case manufacturers to release their cases.
They have improved the camera and got ip68 water resistance and fasted wireless charging,it's the cheapest flagship.Qualcomm forced 5g on them and just including 5g can largely increase the price
Is the battery life good because your test said so or did you notice it in actual usage as well? I'm thinking more about how it performs in standby time as well
I just picked up an 8 Pro 256/12 (Because why not?). Its my first none Pixel phone since the original. After being underwhelmed by the 4XL (an breaking it) I thought it was time to give up my loyalty. So far I'm super happy with the phone and Oxygen OS. I would tend to agree about it being better than pure Android.
Upgrade Season for me and its always great to see ur various reviews, overall, camera comps and battery comps! Torn between the s20+, p40 Pro (current p20 pro user) and now the one plus 8 Pro! Keep up the good work
Hello from India. I liked your content and it's amazing to see how much effort you put in to achieve this kind of perfection. The amount of details is actually more than the likes of MKBHD. 👍 I want an advice from you. I am upgrading from Samsung Note 9 (Exynos) . My options are S10+, S20+ (both Exynos) iPhone 11 Pro Max and the Oneplus 8 Pro. My priorities are excellent call quality via earpiece and speaker phone, excellent audio quality, excellent battery life and smooth overall performance with the least amount of frame drops. For me the basics of communication like Signal and WIFI reception and calling experience matter a lot. Which one should I go for?
My 8 Pro arrives tomorrow. Pretty psyched for it. It'll have to be damned impressive for me to keep it, tho. My Pixel 3XL still performs well aside from its wretched battery life. The only other phone that interests me for 2020 is the iPhone 12 Pro.
Hey Chaps! Do you think OnePlus has become too expensive?? 🤔 - Wallpaper: bit.ly/2xFzwyK
I think it was always their goal to work their way up to flagship price eventually.
Just orderd a oneplus 8 pro 128gb. I think it has the better value because of the ips rating, 120hz display and the better ram. You said ram was equal but it isn't, the 8 pro has ddr5 vs the ddr4 ram in the normal version. This makes a pro version much more future proof imo. I try to do 3 years with a phone.

The price would have been justified if the storage were 256/512GB
Very high price
It is too expensive

Why did the OP 8 Pro did bad in the Battery test of MrWhoseTheBoss, it was like 4th in his video, while 2nd in your video.

With regards to pricing I can understand why they have priced it higher than usual as they want to compete with the big dogs, but one thing that OP should do is compromise to get more people to have a OP phone, Apple have done it and its been successful
Great review thank you... This could be the replacement for my Huawei Mate 20 Pro as there is still no sign of Google reappearing on Huawei handsets.
Exactly what I'm replacing my Mate 20 pro with
Very objective review, kudos .
Just ordered mine 8pro cant wait to get! And i know they gonna Throw updates to all the things they Can ! Oneplus thinking on the people its the only brands WHO does that great job with the video love that phone !😍💪🏼
Oneplus 8 pro will definitely be the phone of the year just like the oneplus 7 pro was the best in 2019.
Me too & mine is arriving Tues 4/21
Yes !! Finally watching on my OP 8pro
Camera is great, but I *expected more.*
Lmao what more were you expecting? It beats s20 in camera department lol
@@Saurabh-hx1yp ikr I don't know why people are saying it is disappointing they literally made a better camera than the largest phone manufacturer in the world.
@@lellienicole yeah it's not the best but it is certainly in top 4/5. It is cheaper, faster, has one of the best screens, great freaking software, awesome features. What else do one want???
@@Saurabh-hx1yp Research more on its camera performance and what the entire camera setup lacks. Yes, it could have been better.
@@JustAnAtheist what would you improve?
Nice video. Here's a little advice for you, if you want to differentiate a bit from other tech reviewers. Try to go more in-depth into the slightly niche features of the phone. For example, some people, myself included are interested in seeing the manual controls of the camera too (Pro tab), to understand how low/high the ISO and shutter speed goes in manual mode, etc. Also, what customizations are there for the always on display, how many steps of audio volume you get, that sort of thing. No tech reviewer ever seems to touch on that stuff with very few exceptions.
nice to see the camera is getting good. Still a good value I think.
No one phone is worth that money.
Excellent review. 👌
Can u make a comparison between one plus 8 pro and oppo find x2 pro
I never realised that the normal 8 is very similar to the previous pro... Game changer!
Now their USP has gone, price, their selling point is now only Oxygen OS. Does this make the OnePlus 8 Pro a better choice than the Galaxy S20 or iPhone 11 Pro? For some people.
Maybe they want to be the next Samsung!!
Selling points for me are:
- Oxygen OS mostly
- Dual Sim
- Bright af screen
- Good, just not the best camera
- Still cheaper than Samsung where I live
- physical stores and good experience with warranty service
@@GreNadeMusicNL only the software is a USP though? Samsung's are also dual sim. At least my European S10 is. Super useful. Good points though. And let's face the price will drop. Phones are always much more at launch.
@@MrGoobee they've taken the third spot. Which is great. Huawai were killing it but I've seen a noticeable drop in interest in the Mate 30 Pro and P40 Pro. For me I'm sticking with Samsung as they also sell watches/tablets and Your Phone on Windows has the most features on Modern Samsungs
@@bradavon it's a really big part of the phone, the software is extremely important in my opinion.
I had a samsung with one ui, and absolutely hated it. The alert slider is also nice, local repair centres you can just walk in and get your screen or battery replaced without having to send it off and missing your phone for 2 weeks.
All those things make it worth it for me
Great video - really helped my purchasing decision thanks!
that wallpaper's cool
Great review! Always pleased to hear your thoughts about a new released phone, even more if it is a OnePlus device 🙌 Two questions: Do you think OnePlus 8 is well placed against some other flagship competitors such as Samsung Galaxy S20 (which will cost much less in some months) or Iphone 11? It continues to offer good value for the money or do you think you have to sacrifice to much good features? 🤔 And the other one, how did you get Google Now Feed on the Oxygen OS Shelf? Congratulations for another fantastic review! 😍🎉
The Google news feed thing is the default screen left of home. I think it's definitely competitive. I'd buy this over a s20 just got the software tbh
@@Thetechchap Just discovered that this is something that has just arrived with OnePlus series 8 and it was available before in some variants. I'm a proud user of OnePlus 6T and I totally agree, OxygenOS is awesome even though Android 10 on my device came in with some software issues that haven't been solved yet. I mean, most of the S20 Ultra features are still present in S20, but it is not the case in the OnePlus 8, but I get your point. Thanks for the answer! I really love your videos 🙌
Oneplus 8 Vs oneplus 7t Review
Jeez I'm early this time.
Great video!
2:39 funeral dancers for hire. 😂
Hey, Just curious which FPS game were you playing at 6:53 minutes
Same question
Bright memory mobile. It says it in the bottom left.
2:39 they show up run away dude 😂
The camera alone unfortunately destroys a one plus 8 pro purchase for me. The moment they have an extraordinary camera, I will get it.
Everyone: focusing on buying the 8 pro...
Me: Still planning on buying the 7pro😂😂
My most significant upgrades for past 6 years. HTC ONE -> Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus -> OnePlus 7 Pro..and looks like I man not goding to be upgrading for at least 2 morse years.
Oxygen OS over Stock!! Also Me Here!!🙋🙋😍😍
Haha yes!!
I've heard a lot of good things about the oxygen os
Hi,what's the best phone for the speakers.
WHO HAS A BETTER CAMERA? ONE PLUS 8 OR S 10?
If you mean OnePlus 8 then the S10. If you mean the 8 Pro then the 8 Pro
@@Jan-rn3vj no not really in some cases the s10 is better but in other cases the oneplus 8 pro is better, id pick the s10 camera over the oneplus camera but as an overall phone its definitely the 8 pro
I hope you can answer this, I'm considering buying the OnePlus 8 pro and you have said that you've been using it for a couple of weeks, there are some issues within oneplus 8 pro indian units having issues for displays, have you also experienced that issues?
I'm a samsung fan boy, but I gotta admit this phone really got my heart🔥💙
Hi. Is it worth upgrading from the 7pro ? Does this have LED NOTIFICATION LIGHT ?
It's funny how everyone talk about the slider. I see why people love it so much but I never used it. My phone is always on silence mode so 🤷🏽♂️.
I just ordered one of this. Coming from a 200dollar phone 3yrs ago to this. It's a hell a lot of money for me. Hope I don't regret it.
Flagship killer become the flagship 👈🤣🤣🤣
Yeah but it's still really a flagship killer when we compare it with samsung or other companies...and 8 pro cost 54,999 india...so it's a killer for sure 😂😂
You make by far the best reviews...
👊
You must hate LG dude lol. You should review the LG V60. It's such a great phone.
Fantastic video as always Tom. Much love from Ireland 🇮🇪. Hope you're staying safe. I bought the Pro model on launch day & it's due to come this coming week ☺️☺️☺️. I got the glacial green colour which I originally didn't like when I saw the leaks but looks so much better than I first thought. Am patiently waiting for the wireless charger to come back in stock & for case manufacturers to release their cases.
Oneplus is getting a bit gready
Or maybe it's time for us to get rich......??
They have improved the camera and got ip68 water resistance and fasted wireless charging,it's the cheapest flagship.Qualcomm forced 5g on them and just including 5g can largely increase the price
Is the battery life good because your test said so or did you notice it in actual usage as well? I'm thinking more about how it performs in standby time as well
Both! It's been excellent over the last 2 weeks. About 8 hours screen on time
@@Thetechchap damn. I don't wanna sell my exynos s20+ but a 120hz with excellent battery life on the op8 pro is really tempting me now 😵
@@tswfootball i think you made a mistake to go with the galaxy! Should've waited
@@Saurabh-hx1yp well I'm actually quite satisfied with the galaxy. Its only a bummer to know there's a better snapdragon version out there
"Messy house" You should see mine xD
Nice video, Tom!!!
Welcome to another episode of i can't affort that
I have questions on the OnePlus 8 Pro. Can you use Night mode with the wide angle lens?
Andrew pearman yes
@@bhaskarmukherjee2373 telephoto?
My question has been answered since I now own OnePlus 8 pro . fantastic phone
2020 Boycott stupid overpriced phones
Planning to get one this month, is it worth it still? Or better get the 8T?
Always been a huge fan of Oneplus, but never owned one. Been hard to buy in Norway. Went for the pro, can't wait! 😊
Been following you for a while, and i must say you are as usual doing a great job. :)
Tom which phone do u recommend me for photography now days? The best for photography
Very good reviews.
Simply and strength.
Thanks
Great review keep it up as always stay safe 🙏
Do you have issues on the screen? Green tint?
I just picked up an 8 Pro 256/12 (Because why not?). Its my first none Pixel phone since the original. After being underwhelmed by the 4XL (an breaking it) I thought it was time to give up my loyalty. So far I'm super happy with the phone and Oxygen OS. I would tend to agree about it being better than pure Android.
Upgrade Season for me and its always great to see ur various reviews, overall, camera comps and battery comps! Torn between the s20+, p40 Pro (current p20 pro user) and now the one plus 8 Pro! Keep up the good work
The biggest joke in the battery test is how S20 Ultra has the highest battery capacity but is still the last in the test
Shows how bad the exynos is.
Hello from India. I liked your content and it's amazing to see how much effort you put in to achieve this kind of perfection. The amount of details is actually more than the likes of MKBHD. 👍 I want an advice from you. I am upgrading from Samsung Note 9 (Exynos) . My options are S10+, S20+ (both Exynos) iPhone 11 Pro Max and the Oneplus 8 Pro. My priorities are excellent call quality via earpiece and speaker phone, excellent audio quality, excellent battery life and smooth overall performance with the least amount of frame drops. For me the basics of communication like Signal and WIFI reception and calling experience matter a lot. Which one should I go for?
is thegoogle now on left swipe in 4:24 available to all OP phone?
My 8 Pro arrives tomorrow. Pretty psyched for it. It'll have to be damned impressive for me to keep it, tho. My Pixel 3XL still performs well aside from its wretched battery life. The only other phone that interests me for 2020 is the iPhone 12 Pro.
