OnePlus 8 Pro Unboxing and Review: True Blue Flagship

In this video I unbox both the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro then dive straight Into the review to answer your burning questions. How big of an upgrade is it from from OnePlus 7 Pro? Does its performance justify its $900 price tag? And how does it compare to the best flagships of 2020?

Was down with a fever yesterday, but really wanted to get this video done, a new record length at 21 minutes. But I had much to say about the new OnePlus 8 Pro! Let me know if you agree.

[@roby030390]

some giveaway please sir

[@poyahashimi]

Awful background music!

[@poyahashimi]

Well, It is really disturbing ☹️ background music.

[@nuwanabeykoon3823]

Although the vedio is lengthy, you covered almost everything. Thank you 😊. Stay safe🙏.

[@sharvankumarprajapathashan9455]

You know, when the video was complete, I didn't relized that this is 21 mins. Video. Really great to watch every detail the way you explain.

[@KartheekAlladi]

You are GOD for putting 7 Pro and 8 Pro side-by-side to know the color difference. None of the other KZbinrs or the online reviewers did this. I was desperate to know the difference. Thank you for that. And I wish you a speedy recovery from your fever.

[@duechrlsmchl]

It's not gadgetmatch when Michael Josh didn't fail the opening of the box. 😅 GadgetMatch deserves more subscribers! Legit and unbiased reviews always! Godbless Team!

[@rogeraguillonjr9170]

I really love Michael Josh's delivery in unboxing smartphones. It's like a breath of fresh air.

[@keurigstin]

Roger Aguillon Jr I agree. Normally i would have skipped these parts but there was something about how it was shot and how it was done that seems an inviting experience, like I am unboxing it too.

[@kristianmarcalbos2676]

I agree.

[@Jwdude123]

Yeah, and he put the 1 plus pro up his gay butt.

[@michele8154]

2014 ___ flagship killer! 2020___ account killer

[@peteT269]

It's 200 more. Assuming you upgrade no more than once every 2 years and have a reasonably well paid job, it's hardly an issue.

[@leonardchong5268]

Couldn't agree more ......those who complain about the price probably spent more elsewhere and still have enough spare to buy 10 of these OnePlus toys

[@leonardchong5268]

And by the way you can trade in your 7 or 7t pro to reduce the price down so it's still relatively cheap .....and compare to its peers .....OnePlus is still cheaper so technically they are still the flagship killer

[@elftax]

@@peteT269 the One Plus market is the unreasonably paid. 5g is not common and fast wireless charging with a custom charger is unnecessary. One Plus is betting on the Apple model, still fewer phones with a higher profit margin, fan boys will buy anything... Sadly, they mistimed it - covid-19 has put China and India into economic turmoil, customers in both countries will not be looking for Flagship phones and people in Europe are unlikely to spend €900 on a phone that doesn't comes from a relatively unknown brand.

[@biffsgourmetkitchen]

Another great review. I prefer my popup camera though. At least if I crack my screen I won't accidentally damage my selfie camera. My next phone will need 512gb storage though as I've used over 140gb storage in 6 months on my 7t pro. Also, the Google cam on the OnePlus 7t Pro is incredible.

[@kamellion77]

The best OnePlus 8 Pro review so far. Great Job, Josh.

[@KaranAnand-lj6dd]

Hii michael josh....i have a lot of things to say to you... i have been watching your channel from a long time.... and one thing i have noticed is that you explain all the things very well... your contents and videos are always very much interesting and unlike other KZbin channels, they are also informative.... there’s a lot of respect in my heart for you and i wish you a good luck for your upcoming vids... love from 🇮🇳

[@matpauen7650]

U damnnnnnnnn right

[@zerospecs2331]

Ibra Rutta Ibra Rutta True... I was with android for years from the G1, my touch 3g, numerous HTC phones, Samsung phones (Samsung Fascinate, Note 3-Note 9, S3-S7 Edge), LG phones, OnePlus 7 Pro...and then I finally gave iOS a chance and I can see myself keeping my XS Max for a while. I have my reasons, I like both OS a lot, can see and understand what they offer, and appreciate the differences. But this (iOS) just works for me right now for what I need. But of all the android devices I had, the LG G3 was a favorite, S7 Edge, Note 8 (despite the weakass battery life), and the OnePlus 7 Pro 🔥.

[@ianirvinagner308]

Watching this video makes me want to switch to OnePlus instead of upgrading to Note 20 from my current Samsung S10+ phone. Aside from the fact that I've always wanted a blue phone, the price tag of this phone will save me a significant amount of money. Thank you, Josh! 😊

Now i have a headache - OnePlus 8 Pro 5G or Samsung S20 Plus 5G - which one shall i go for? Please do a comparison between the 2 best phones of this year (in my opinion) so I can make the right choice (for me) because i will invest in one of these 2 phones for the next 2-4 years. (Currently have Samsung S7). Keep up the fantastic work.

The Verdict: Send the message to Oneplus by Not buying it unless you want the next Oneplus to be $1400

[@kylotech5056]

because you can't afford it that should mean someone else who can, and wants to buy it shouldn't? Do what you want with your money, and let others do what they want with theirs.

[@n.naovaratpong2700]

Why do you assume I can't afford it? And pretty sure I'm not forcing anyone Otherwise, yeah I'm just saying that actions speak louder than words, companies don't care if we rant as long as we still buy their products, you see people have been criticizing the price increase but still buy it, so Oneplus still making tons of profit knowing that they can still continue to up their price since people still buy it anyway. If you want, buy it no one is stopping you just be prepared to pay $100 more money every year
