"OnePlus 7 Pro Review—The fastest, best-designed, best-value Android phone"

Lots of info in here. 90hz uses about 14% more battery than 60hz. Web test (i.e screen on) @ 90hz lasted 642 mins. Camera is excellent but the Pixel is better. Fingerprint scanner is better than the 6t. Storage bench marks are much faster than the S10

Its a shame we have to pay more compared to the US which starts of at $669 which is around £520. I got a feeling the camera won't be that good, probably behind the Mi 9.

And now the accessories are priced high and referrals are only £10. They're releasing the OP7 in June hoping to tempt everyone for the Pro.

S10/+ can be had way cheap now if you import from eGlobal Central. I know people have their reservations but I bought from them with no problems.

Speaking about S10+ I spoke to him yesterday and he will be dropping the OP7 Pro vs S10+ Camera Comparison today.

Oneplus used to be near flagship specs but with a few features missing but for a great value price. These new ones are still missing features but the price is jacked up close to Samsung levels. Big shame.

They should have ditched the 90hz and put more into the camera and battery. Be perfect then.

Good info here as well.

Wonder why they went with gorilla glass 5 when the 6t was using 6?

curved screen?

I do like how they have added in the partial navigation buttons like on the pixel 3

VAT adds 20% so thats why it's more than US.

S10/+ from eglobal with zero warranty in EU unless you return to eGlobal at your own cost. It's basically the same price (s10+ is £649 for the 128gb version) and most people won't order from there with zero warranty. Cheapest UK is £770 for the 128gb version so it's a bit unfair saying it's the same costs as a samsung when it's only the same cost as an imported one with zero EU warranty and less storage.

I love 90hertz but I agree also, the cost was to high for somthing that most people probably won't even notice.

If i get one i will most likely set it to 60hz.
Also wish they did a 8gb/128gb. Im only using 28gb storage at the minute. 256 is overkill for me.

So the new mi will use a 855 and call it k20? Or am I reading between the lines too much?

I do like the new one plus pro it seems great even for that price.

Something to do with demand or the curve I'd imagine. There is very little difference anyways. Seems to be just as scratch resistant as any other phone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=wLmiWPHPqhU (not for the faint hearted :eek:

kona786 · 15 May 2019 at 10:02

90hhz and QHD are the only improvements I like here. Curved is a waste of time.

How is AOD not even an option!

Phone is far too large for my liking.

Deluxe1 · 15 May 2019 at 10:03

Ordered the 12gb version, if i don't like it i'll just return it within 2 weeks.

Think it's the new Poco F2 definitely one to keep an eye on.

I found another review where the SoT appears to be 5-5½ hours. Since this metric is important to me, it's enough to stop me buying the phone.

What I really wanted was the OnePlus version of Android, since I'm getting a bit bored of iOS. I've had a play with the P30 Pro and found it sluggish and most people report the Huawei interpretation of Android to be somewhat lacking, so it was Oxygen OS I wanted to try as everyone agrees it's lightning fast. For me, the ideal phone would have also had a smaller screen (6.1-6.3 inches) and a better camera. For some reason the normal Oneplus 7 doesn't appeal.

DrToffnar · 15 May 2019 at 10:06

I just wish it had wireless charging. Seems like a real missed opportunity there.

dj-striker · 15 May 2019 at 10:07

disappointed 02 uk have decided not to sell either of the devices :mad:

Spit · 15 May 2019 at 10:08

I have had iPhone for years and this phone is really tempting me away. I use my Apple Watch all the time and AirPods, what equivalent is there?
