      I think it was always their goal to work their way up to flagship price eventually.

    • @esaef91
      @esaef91 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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! 😍🎉

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 🙌

      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.

      @M4R71N98 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      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.
