OnePlus 7 Pro Review - The Fastest Android #Helpful Post

's really dangerous to build your

brand on being really fast for one thing

speed is quantifiable so you can't just

say it's magic or it turns you into

professional photographer and then

expect everyone to buy your products

based on their feelings for another

thing it puts such an obvious target on

your back I mean it's not like any of

your competitors are trying to make

their devices slower and that is what

makes one plus's accomplishment here so

impressive the 1 plus 7 pro is hands

down the fastest Android device that I

have ever held in my hand and I'm gonna

show you guys what I mean after this

message from our sponsor Corsair the

corsair iron claw RGB mouse features a

native 18,000 DPI optical sensor a

comfortable palm grip and sub 1

millisecond slipstream wireless

technology check it out at the link

below

let's get the bad stuff out of the way

right now

the 1 plus 7 Pro doesn't have a

headphone jack though in fairness

neither do most flagship phones these

days so harping on that feels like

background noise especially when it also

falls short in some other key areas one

it lacks any wireless charging when

leaders like Huawei and Samsung have

moved on to high-speed wireless charging

and even wireless power sharing 2 it

carries no independently validated water

or dust resistance rating when even

Apple has been doing this for years now

3 it issues other add-ons and features

beloved by Android enthusiasts like

expandable storage IR blasters or

removable batteries and for finally it's

just plain not cheap anymore parent

company BBK Electronics has obviously

set very clear expectations that the

oneplus brand needs to move up market in

order to survive preferring to use

divisions like real me and vivo to

attack budget competitors like wall

weighs honor and shammies poco phone

brands so we follow that out of the way

why do I love this thing so much well it

starts with the feel in the hand oneplus

has taken a huge leap forward with this

generation the 7 pro features curved

Gorilla Glass 5 for both the back and

the screen that's a first for them it's

got ideally positioned lock volume

rocker and do-not-disturb buttons along

with corners that are shaped perfectly

to fit comfortably in a cupped palm in

both portrait and landscape orientations

now it's heavy about the same weight as

a note 9 but with that heft comes a heck

of a lot of phone the display is simply

put outstanding this is one pluses first

1440p class display so folks with

sharper eyes than me will probably

appreciate that but the thing that stood

out to me was the configurability

oneplus holds nothing back here for

example you can switch to DC control to

reduce flicker which is sick and instead

of hiding color profiles behind

ambiguous terms like

photo or vivid they allow the user to

quickly and easily select their color

space of choice and adjust the white

point that's a huge one for me over the

already excellent OLED panel on the

galaxy s 10 plus which is locked into a

warmer white point than I would prefer

in its color accurate profile and it

gets even better

HDR 10 plus certification no not CH no

hole punch no distractions

now purists might still criticize the

heavily rounded corners but I'd say

after about 30 seconds of wide aspect

ratio content on this phone I suspect

most people will completely forget about

it this is the most immersive phone

movie watching experience that I've had

yet and yes some of us watch movies on

our films deal with it the only thing on

my wish list here would be always-on

functionality I've got to praise the

onboard speakers as well LG and huawei

took big Gamble's transitioning to

vibrating screen technology for their

earpiece speakers

and while it paid off in terms of in

call audio quality in my opinion they

both delivered inferior video watching

experiences oneplus opted for a right

side bottom firing speaker and a super

slim amplified earpiece speaker that

between the two of them deliver a very

satisfactory stereo effect even if

they're not the loudest I've ever heard

and they got to get kudos for that now

let's get into my claims about the

oneplus 7 pros incredible speed because

like it sounds kind of hard to believe

right

since flagship phones all have basically

the same hardware in them at this point

the thing is though that tuning matters

it starts with the in screen fingerprint

sensor now I had pretty much accepted

that the convenience of being able to

unlock my phone without flipping it over

came at the cost of slower

authentication not anymore

every device that you're looking at here

has the latest updates the seven pro is

just that much faster and you can

complain that part of Samsung's poor

showing here is that their animation is

slow but the thing is that's part of the

perception of speed like I don't like

everything about oneplus as oxygen OS

the task switcher only shows one task

which i think is dumb and the

fingerprint sensor actually happens to

show up exactly where the clear-all

notifications button is oops

but overall oneplus has worked for years

to purge their OS of unnecessary fluff

in the form of things like lock

animations it doesn't have one the

screen just turns off and folder pop-ups

so snappy so everything just feels fast

and more importantly not just when it's

brand new when I was trying to quantify

my snappy experience with the 7 pro I

grabbed a freshly formatted pixel 3

Excel and I was surprised that given the

pixel threes reputation they were

neck-and-neck in basically everything I

did but then I logged into my Google

account and installed all the same apps

and immediately the difference became

what you're looking at now and the

cherry on top of all of that is the

perceived increase in responsiveness

from the 90 Hertz screen I am a huge

proponent of high refresh rate and the 1

+ 7 Pro is exactly why not only does

every animation look more fluid but

everything on the screen that's in

motion looks higher definition like you

can read text as you're scrolling back

and forth like this actually that brings

us pretty nicely to the camera now

oneplus started out as the foam that was

great except for the camera thank

goodness it's cheap but over the last

couple of generations they've really

broken away from the pack not because

they get the best DXL mark score or

because they have amazing video

recording quality that's still a weak

point from my experience compared to my

note 9 daily driver

what oneplus does well though and the

seven pros 48 megapixel main and

wide-angle shooters are no exception is

take whatever is in front of you and put

it on your screen for better or for

worse their app is super responsive yes

not again and it's simple to use and on

the image processing side they tend not

to overdo anything like edge enhancement

noise reduction or color saturation and

I really like and respect their approach

at least in normal mode their night mode

was actually a bit of a mess for me the

one night that I took it out as for the

selfie camera out of the box it's sharp

accurate and mostly free of weird beauty

processing so pretty good in my book

already but of course that's far from

the coolest thing about it now a motor

pop-up camera is in my mind the riskiest

way to achieve a notch 'less display and

that's because of the moving parts but

oneplus claims that between the gasket

that they've installed to keep out

debris and their automatic retraction

mechanism okay so let's go they

validated it to be used a hundred and

fifty times per day every day for five

years and the thing is I have seen their

R&D; and testing center so alright guys

innocent until proven guilty on this one

now as for some of the new camera

selling points I'm a little tepid on

those the three times optical zoom lens

definitely delivers more detail in

faraway objects but at the cost of

inferior processing now it's possible

that this is something they can improve

but it is only an 8 megapixel sensor so

I probably wouldn't hold my breath

I do have more good stuff to say though

30-watt warped charging is some pretty

next-level stuff half of your charge

over this is a four thousand milliamp

hour battery in 30 minutes

dang impressive I'm assuming I don't

know I didn't use it but for good reason

thing is battery life on the 60 was

already great so adding nearly another

10 percent to its capacity could only

serve to improve it and it did now the 7

Pro is still no two-day monster like the

p30 pro but I regularly made it to the

end of the day with 40% in the tank and

I actually got all of my notifications

so that's pretty good which brings us

then to price for the first time second

time actually but who's counting oneplus

is pursuing a two tiered strategy

focusing on the oneplus 7 pro in some

markets and pushing the oneplus 7 a

lower-cost beefed up 60 in others with

this strategy then comes 1 + s biggest

generational price hike yet if you're in

a 7 pro market around $100 so then

over twice as much as the original 1+1

does this still make sense the answer is

yeah

now bargain hunters out there might find

that they prefer flagship killers like

the f1 or unlocked no warranty

international s tens on marketplaces

like Amazon but for my part if a friend

said to me

look I've got a good job I want

something decent which Android phone

should I get for a noble experience I'd

say if you don't absolutely need a

headphone jack

get a one plus seven pro because the

thing is guys it's all about the

software these days and as we discovered

during our five-year Android vs. iPhone

test there's a reason that oneplus

phones hold their value so darn well

speaking of holding their value well D

brand skins help your device's hold

their value better because they not only

look freaking awesome they also protect

your devices against incidental scuffs

and scratches deep brand skins are

available for laptops phones tablets

consoles controllers and more they're

made from high-quality 3m vinyl that's

true texture and the patented adhesive

is guaranteed to leave no residue on

your device if you ever want to change

the skin their uncompromising precision

and cutting the vinyl ensures a factory

fit for your device and their customer

service robots are easy to work with

they're great deep brand products are

affordable and they ship worldwide so
