Although it's not the highest resolution available in the market when comparing to the other phones such as Samsung Galaxy S20 which offer WQHD+ screen.

While you might be surprised that this flagship offers only 90 Hz display to the buyers which is kind of the smooth but not the smoothest among others offering 120 Hz and even more.

Instead of a telephoto camera, OnePlus has chosen to equip the OnePlus 8 with a 2MP macro camera, for close-up photography of flowers, pets, or the like.  

The 16MP front-facing shooter is functional and sharp. Shots are detailed, but it also overexpose subjects slightly

While the model with 12GB of RAM scored 3,401 on Geekbench 5.Curiously

And what does that mean? The OnePlus 8 is as fast as you need it to be, switching between apps and games without delay.

OnePlus’s OxygenOS skin for Android hasn’t changed much from its predecessors – it’s still a minimal overlay with a sleek look, although the app tray now has a slight transparency to let the dynamic Android 10 backgrounds show through.

4,300mAh battery 

 Warp Charge 30W charger fully recharges in an hour

SHOULD YOU BUY IT:

Absolutely without any doubt this flagship phone is the one which beats all the other opponents available in the market whether having a price or the specs also the promising brand would never let you down in terms of maintenance and services cause it had grabbed an absolute market in India and over the world in the last 5-6 years.

If you had a good mid-range budget you should absolutely go through the option of Oneplus 8 whether taking about the battery or the screen display or the camera they had done their best to assure your investments in such brand and product.

This would be the best killer phone and I'm too looking for the availability to buy this ASAP so that it can be discussed later in a better form
