The OnePlus 8 Pro, for me, is the perfect phone. I am huge into media consumption, watching videos, gaming with emulators and listening to music and the OP8's screen and crazy fast processor make for an amazing experience. I also really like taking photos on my phone and the camera was my big issue with the previous OnePlus phones, but the 8 pro is a fantastic camera, especially with the GCam mod. The build quality is top tier, and Oxygen OS is my favorite version of android. My only big issue with the phone is the WIFI issues that you briefly mentioned towards the end, but it's more of an inconvenience and not a deal breaker. Overall, I can't recommend this phone enough, literally my favorite phone of all time.

@@SamsMangaReviews Personally i hate the shadows on the edges of the 8pro screen, caused by the aggressive curve. You can't escape them at any angle. I have been dying to switch back to 7pro since i got this phone on the launch, but i have just thought maybe suffer a little longer and i get used to the shadows, but seems like i don't. That's my only gripe though. No green tint and while the 7pro full screen was awesome, i guess the hole punch design isn't a deal breaker, at least not on it's own. EDIT: Oh and no idea about the wifi at all. We don't use wifi in my country.

Been using 8pro for 2 months now. I had been using the oneplus 6 prior to this. Overall, I think it is a good phone. Nothing stands out, but everything is good enough for me. I will talk about the points that are important to me in order. 1. Battery life is ok. My morning commute is around 1.5 hours and I am constantly web browsing and playing games while listening to music in the background. During the day I will go through my phone once a while. By around 5pm, my battery will be at around 40%. Personally I don't feel comfortable with my battery is below 50% since I live in China and the phone is used for EVERYTHING. So I charge it up for 20min before I leave work. One of the best things about the 8pro is the warp charge. in 20minutes, I can get back to around 80%, which will last me for the ride home and rest of the night. 2. Screen is good and bad. The image quality is excellent. Personally I think the 120hz is great, but I have decided to turn it off to save battery. I manually turn it back on when I want to play games or whatnot. The bad part is the curve. Just like what the blogger said, I constantly finding my palm hitting the side of the phone and opening up random apps. Even sometimes when I am trying to select something and it doesn't respond, it is because a tip of my finger is touching the side of the screen. It gets annoying at times to the point where I am consciously aware of it. 3. Operating system. Since I got this phone in China, I am using the hydrogenOS. This is one of the main reasons why I chose oneplus over xiaomi or huawei. I enjoy their fast updates and minimalistic design. However, there are times where my apps would freeze or crash. This hardly ever happened on my oneplus 6 or pixel 2plus. One last thing I want to say is this phone is long and heavy. After holding it up for an extended period of time, your arms will get tired. Of course, every phone has their faults, in my opinion, there is no phone out there that I rather have right now than the oneplus 8 pro.

I bought the OP8Pro in december, and after 7-10 days it had burn-in and insane image retention. Oh and it also has the green tint thing. So even after after all the updates, and a later production date, it still seems to have issues. I managed to get rid of most of the burn-in via anti burn-in apps, but the image retention is annoying. Static images, even just being static for 10 seconds or so, will stay visible for another 5-10 seconds, specially on a grey background. The curved edges isnt much of a problem for me, as I use a case on the phone. Edit: Because of the insane image retention on this phone, I would be very carefull with gaming on it.

I have faced the same issue of chrome on my previous OP6 and I have seen a lot of people in OnePlus community app talking about the same issue. But overall I really like the phone, basically it's a beast 🔥 ( Sorry for my average english btw 😅 ) Keep up the good work, I love your videos.

I own OnePlus 8 pro and there are 4 cameras for start, the filter camera in my unit at least doesn't work at all, the software just takes the regular camera and put a regular filter over it. At the first 2 weeks the filter camera worked just fine but after that it stopped.
@Eiensakura4 жыл бұрын
Oneplus patched the filter camera out because there was some wonky business (being able to see through some materials) with it. Not sure when they will bring it back.
@jordengx14 жыл бұрын
@@Eiensakura I know that, but in the beginning I could have seen fabric and other materials in different colors using the unique camera but now I see this awful filter that is just a regular filter over the main camera. When I enter the filter below is written that there is a need for more light, this message is written always when I'm using this filter option and no matter if I'm in a dark room or at 1 PM outside.

The biggest issues I'm noticing: Google Chrome is buggy; it freezes for 5 seconds once in a while. The fingerprint reader, like you said, blinds you at night. Bluetooth takes a good while to connect in my car. My Pixel never had an issue, so it's not my car.

Stop crying so much about the curved screen ffs! The curved screen first makes it look like a real premium flagship, you can use it to access the edge panels like Samsung (ok gotta download an app for it but still) and I NEVER had problems with it!

As an owner of both an iPhone 11Pro Max and a OnePlus 7Pro, I enjoy WARP charge waaaaaaaay more than wireless charging. These phones have amazing battery life, so I don't really need wireless chargers all around the house to keep up. What I can say is that, as a long time iPhone user, OnePlus delivers the best android experience I have ever tried. I've wanted to leave iOS for a while, but I don't like Samsung's software and implementations, and Google's is really good, but the Pixels ALWAYS have hardware problems. Just look at the batteries on the Pixel 3 family. The weakest link of OnePlus has always been camera performance, but the 7Pro I have produces amazing pictures with gcam... so I can bet the 8Pro's are even better. So if you're thinking about jumping the boat of just trying OnePlus as a brand, just do it. You'll definitively find an amazing product made to perform fast, and to last.

As a Oneplus 7 pro user, the curved display "ghost touch" isn't a problem... If you use a case. The case make the camera bump and protect the side of the curve screen. But using a case you lose of the AMAZING feeling of having the glass in your hand and i have to say each time i'm in a safe position i so enjoy the feeling of it.

I think the selfie cam is actually better on the 7pro. The bigger sensor on the pop up camera generates decent results. On video too. Weird thing is that the eyeline is well above the screen which make it awkward looking directly into the lense. Still loving mine.

I bought an 8 pro right away, coming from Samsung. I had to get familiar with it first, but now, I really love it. First of all - the color: I have the green one, and OMG!!! it's gorgeous! I got the 12GB/256 GB one so in terms of specs I'm happy with it. the display is great, but I don't like that the brightness, at its minimum, it's still kinda bright (at least, compared with the Samsung I had) and also, the same thing with the fingerprint - for me it's working flawlessly, but the sensor gets too bright. overall, I'm happy with the choice I made (between Oneplus 8 pro, Samsung 20+, and Xiaomi mi 10 pro)
