fantastic screen, top performance, good battery life, superfast wired and wireless charging, great camera, great software, alert slider, water resistance, 5G, dualsim, superfast inscreen fingerprint scanner
no headphone socket, 5G disabled when using two sims, only three years' software updates, expensive, very long
The 8 Pro shows OnePlus is no longer the underdog significantly undercutting the big boys on price.Instead it has filled the cost-cutting gaps with features that truly rival the best from others. The 8 Pro has a genuinely fantastic screen, a cracking desi...

Smooth and sharp 120Hz QHD display, Speedy all round, Great camera
Large and unwieldy, Curved display poses problems, Battery life just OK
From a uniquely capable and fluid display to a fine camera and top level performance, the OnePlus 8 Pro excels in all major areas. There are trade offs for this boundary-pushing approach, not least a price tag that runs against the brand's founding ethos...

Astonishing 120Hz, QHD+, HDR10+ screen,Rapid internal hardware,Next-gen 5G connectivity,Impressive benchmark scores,IP68 water and dust proof,Buttery smooth Oxygen OS 10.5,Stylish design with great ergonomics,Battery that goes the distance,
Camera system, while good, is beaten elsewhere,
The OnePlus 8 Pro is the best and most well-rounded phone the Chinese maker has ever produced, partnering simply mind-blowing speed and performance with the best display ever shipped on a smartphone and a suite of flagship features which, in part, had bee...
OnePlus's first attempt at a fully featured flagship presses all the right buttons, and there really isn't anything missing here. The lack of a fancy telephoto camera might disappoint some - though I suspect few - and 30W wired charging is no longer as im...

Good macro photos, Has 5G
Battery life isn't the best, Poor zoom camera
The 8 Pro sees OnePlus get over an awkward hump. Expensive OnePlus phones are hard enough for long-term fans to swallow, and 5G has only made it more of a throat clogging issue. We have to pay £100 more this year. You do get other benefits besides 5G, li...
One of the best displays on the market,Lightweight and fluid software,Symmetrical build,Water and dust resistant,Wireless charging addition is a plus
Colour filter camera seems pointless,Telephoto results aren't as vibrant/dynamic as two main cameras,Accidental touches on curved display can be an issue
The OnePlus 8 Pro is undoubtedly the company's most complete smartphone to date. It has a big and brilliant display, long-lasting and fast-charging battery, IP68 waterproofing, plus software that's fluid and lightweight. All in a phone that's fast, and ha...
120Hz display is so smooth, An IP68 rating at last, Very good battery life
HDR playback behaves weirdly, Nothing else
I'm a bit of a fan of the OnePlus 8 Pro. Not only does it address one of the main concerns we've had with previous OnePlus handsets, namely that there was previously no officially rated water resistance, but it also adds a load of extra features, includin...
Abstract: OnePlus has, as promised, launched the 8 series of smartphones for 2020. The regular OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro have various differences so you'll want to think carefully about which one to buy. This is one of those comparisons where we're going to spli...
Both phones have very good cameras, however the 8 Pro is in a different class. The images are rich, warm and so clear. Although you'll find that most shots are set to 12 megapixels (by default) on both phones to allow for zooming, there's a sharpness to t...
Abstract: It's a lovely sunny day and I'm out in the garden to take the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro out of their boxes. This really was my first unboxing of both and, as we're on lockdown, my quietest place right now is the garden. If you want the full details on b...
