oh my gah that one plus 7 pro...it honestly seems peerless. the specs blow away the s10 for a lot less. i dont see any flaw. in several area it's leaps ahead of the s10.
this thing is unbelievable. bet they sell out instantly on saturday. i will be hammering their website trying to get mine.
ufs 3.0 up to 79% faster...all that crazy stuff is ahead of the s10! FOr way less. 8/256 version only 699, 12/256 only 749! It's unreal.

Wow. OnePlus is putting the rest of the smartphone world on notice with the launch of its newest smartphone, the OnePlus 7 Pro. The company has become known for providing excellent value in the Android market, and while that is still true of the OnePlus 7 Pro, everything moves even further toward the premium side of the spectrum with this device. With a bigger bill of materials budget behind it, OnePlus has created the best Android phone on the market.
OnePlus isn't just offering features and performance that feel a generation ahead of many of the current devices on the market—it's doing so for a lower price than the super-premium, $1,000 flagships out there. While you can buy a OnePlus 7 Pro today, I think a lot of manufacturers are going to spend the next year scrambling to catch up to OnePlus.
Brace yourselves for an incredibly positive review of the OnePlus 7 Pro.
I thought it was all hype but they say
90Hz OLED is a smoothness revolution
I guess no wireless charging. I do use wireless charging on mY s8+ but it's not a big deal and I can definitely give it up. And no always on display. I dont use that anyway. No official IP rating, but they tout some sort of water hardiness, again not a huge deal IMO.
Edit2 good grief just read this section
This should not be a surprise to anyone that has read this far, but the performance is exceptional. This is the fastest Android phone on Earth. Not just in terms of benchmarks, which it will take top honors in, but in terms of everyday usage and UI performance. The 90Hz display, fast touch latency, optimized software, and Qualcomm's fastest SoC all combine to give you buttery-smooth UI performance that crushes the mainstream flagships out there.
I'm glad now I didn't pull the trigger on a s10 not that I ever really considered it lol. I was really tired of Samsung and it's fisher price UI anyway. I have nothing against them, but I've had a Samsung flagship as my daily driver basically my whole life (S1, S3, S5, now S8). I was just bored of them.
EDit 3 I keep reading, this review reads like a absolutely brutal takedown of SAmsung lol
The OnePlus 7 Pro is the most expensive OnePlus phone ever, but boy has that extra money been put to good use. This is the best Android phone on the market, and the competition is not even close.
The 90Hz display is a huge deal. Seeing animations and scrolling at fluid 90FPS does more to make a phone feel performant than any benchmark score, and I really don't want to have to go back to a 60Hz phone. With OnePlus pulling out all the stops to ship this display, would you believe that Samsung's flagship no longer has the best OLED panel on the market? I don't know how the company slept on this. Samsung most likely made the OnePlus 7 Pro panel, but somehow it never considered 90Hz a good fit for the Galaxy S10.
Any company selling a $1,000 smartphone should be in an absolute panic with the OnePlus 7 Pro on the market. The company is shipping better features, better software, and a better design for a lower price. The OnePlus 7 Pro just sucks all the air out of the Android flagship conversation: it's this or nothing else.
