OnePlus 8T Review: One of the best phones you shouldn’t buy

The OnePlus 8T is a great smartphone, with many strong features, but the price puts it alongside a lot of capable competitors. Here's how it shapes up.

Superfast charging ; One day's use after 15 minutes charge ; Clean, fast, and up-to-date software ; Attractive photos from the camera

No wireless charging ; No IP water-resistance rating

OnePlus 8T Review

Excellent software ; Strong network performance ; Super-fast charging

Cameras are just average ; No wireless charging ; A little too expensive for what you get

The OnePlus 8T is a solid Android phone with a terrific software experience and the fastest charging we've seen.

OnePlus 8T review: the numbers game

The 8T's 65W fast charging really steals the show.

Incredibly fast charging ; Fast performance ; 120Hz display

Fourth camera feels unnecessary ; No wireless charging ; No IP-rating for unlocked models

The OnePlus 8T is better specced in almost every way than the OnePlus 8 it succeeds from earlier this year. It’s got quicker 65W fast charging, a higher 120Hz refresh rate display, a bigger 4,500mAh battery, and an extra camera.

OnePlus 8T review in progress: Return to a winning formula

The 8T is just what Android and OnePlus fans need to close out 2020.

I’m still testing the OnePlus 8T and will update this review when I’m finished, but the results so far leave a strong impression. For $749, you’re getting the specs, design, and performance of a thousand-dollar flagship. It even stands up to the $799...

OnePlus 8T review

The OnePlus 8T is one feature away from greatness

Beautiful 120Hz display ; Strong performance ; Reliable software updates ; Excellent battery life for a 5G phone ; Unbelievable charging speeds

Lacks wireless charging ; Average cameras

The OnePlus 8T is a beautifully designed powerhouse of a smartphone, but it's cameras just can’t compete.

OnePlus 8T Review : Around the curve and back on track

This is the official OnePlus 8T review as conducted by SlashGear. The OnePlus 8T may not agree with you if you've become accustomed to living the “Pro” smartphone life. Over the p…

Bright, sharp, colorful display (flat, too!) ; Display 120Hz image refresh rate ; Fast wired charging (with included charger) ; Simple software with great potential for advance users ; Cameras capture great photos in most conditions

Punch hole seems like less of a problem with a flat display ; No 3.5mm headphone jack ; 5G limited to N41, N78, N79 (no mmWave)

OnePlus 8T review: It will make you reconsider buying an iPhone

Perhaps, you're in the market for a new smartphone, and you're considering the iPhone, the OnePlus 8T might make you reconsider that choice.

Slim, clean, and modern design ; Great premium feel and build ; Amazing 120 Hz Fluid AMOLED display ; Oxygen OS is the best looking version of Android ; 12GB of RAM and the Snapdragon 865 give great performance ; Cameras are great, not the best in the...

Pre-installed screen protector is sticky and not worth keeping on ; Dual speakers sound just okay, better than most for sure but not as good as some flagships ; Cameras are great but some users may look to more expensive flagships for slightly better...

The OnePlus 8T has the following features and specifications: I haven’t been this excited for an Android phone in a very long time. I purchased the very first OnePlus phone years ago and thought it was good, nothing special, just good. Coming back to...

The OnePlus 8T brings the fastest charging available on a mainstream phone and effectively gets rid of the nee for overnight charging. With top level Snapdragon 865 hardware, an industry-leading display and clean Android 11, the OnePlus 8T works out to...

Fastest charging on a mainstream phone; Industry-leading display quality; Great value for the money; Impressively fast and smooth performance; First non-Google phone with Android 11; Dual SIM

Camera still a bit behind the very best; No telephoto zoom lens; Tends to get warm with intense apps and games; No wireless charging; No IP water protection rating

OnePlus 8T vs Pixel 5

We're putting two of the newest Android phones against each other to see which one deserves the "affordable Android flagship" crown. The result isn't all that surprising.
