OnePlus 8 Series Review: NO More Flagship Killer!
.
The pricing of the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro could be quite aggressive in India
Chinese phone maker OnePlus launched its latest flagships, the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro at an online-only event yesterday. While the event was one worthy of a flagship product launch, it did lack the glitz and glam that we've come to associate with OnePlus launches in the past.
Today, during a remote event, OnePlus officially took the wraps off its two newest smartphones, the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro. The hotly anticipated devices introduce some brand new features to the OnePlus ecosystem while also subtly tweaking the aspects people already know and love.
However, the company also made some design decisions that fans of the OnePlus 7 series might not be too happy about, and the pricing for the highest-end OnePlus 8 Pro ascends into “normal” flagship territory, which will likely make long-time fans of the brand upset.
Let’s break down the core information you need to know about the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro!
However, the same cannot be said of the two phones, both of which bring a refined design and feature set to easily make them the most premium OnePlus smartphones to have been created to date. But as we have seen in the past, truly premium flagships don't come cheap -- something that also looks true for the OnePlus 8 series of phones too.
The company has announced the OnePlus 8 will start at a price of $699 for the 8GB RAM and 128GB storage variant, with the higher end 12GB RAM and 256GB storage variant priced at $799. On the other hand, the OnePlus 8 Pro's entry variant with 8GB RAM+128GB storage starts retail at $899. The premium variant of the device with 12GB RAM and 256GB has been priced at $999.
