s the OnePlus 7 Pro
Worth It? #Helpful Post
hey
guys this is Austin this is the
brand
new one +7 Pro and the question is
always
is it worth it so this is the
first
time that one Plus has brought out
a
pro version of their phone and there's
a
lot to like here unlike the standard
one
plus seven which we actually haven't
even
seen yet although by the time you
watch
this video they will most likely
have
it announced the pro version brings
a
brand new completely bezel s display
and
we have a new triple camera design
with
some really nice features including
an
incredibly fast display this is a
full
90 Hertz and it looks awesome it
should
be no surprise the oneplus is
opting
to go for multiple versions of
their
flagship I mean you look around
and
pretty much everyone else is doing
the
same thing they're like four
different
versions of the galaxy s 10
and
of course with the iPhone we have
the
10 are the 10s as well as the 10
that's
max and by going up a little bit
on
the budget it means that we get a lot
of
extra features on the 1 plus 7 pro so
the
most noticeable ones is the lack of
a
notch instead we have a motorized
pop-up
selfie camera which actually is a
pretty
good way of doing it if you get
rid
of the selfie camera you'll see
there's
very very little bezel just a
tiny
little bit of a turn on the bottom
as
soon as you open up that camera the
selfie
pops right up and this is
supposedly
pretty durable it's ready for
something
like a hundred or 150,000
operations
and if it detects that you're
dropping
it it should automatically pull
the
camera and avoid any kind of damage
but
it seems to be pretty sturdy I mean
I'm
not gonna like destroy or something
but
speaking of the screen is also
seeing
a major improvement now first of
all
it's big this is a 6 point 7 inch
panel
which makes the 1 plus 7 Pro even
bigger
than something like the galaxy s
10
plus one of the most noticeable
things
here though is it not only is
that
a higher resolution but it also
runs
at a higher framerate at a full 90
Hertz
now I've seen this a couple times
with
some gaming phones such as the ROG
phone
even a faster display with the
razor
phone and this really does make a
huge
difference everything is so much
more
smooth and of course that's been
one
of the major advantages of what plus
for
years they have been very very well
optimized
software stack on top of the
latest
and greatest on the silicon side
which
means that this straight up flies
one
plus is also taking a page out of
Samsung's
book and curved the glass both
on
front and back I mean if you close
your
eyes this basically feels like a
galaxy
s 10 but that's certainly not a
bad
thing now does it mean that the 1
plus
7 feels a little bit
but
importantly it also means that it
just
sort of feels nice when I'm
scrolling
especially you're not swiping
him
from the side and then if some
people
don't love this especially if
you're
like watching a video it does
distort
a little bit on the edges but
I'm
a huge fan of this and honestly this
is
some of the nicest hardware that
oneplus
has ever put out its Gorilla
Glass
it's aluminum and of course you've
got
to talk about that color so it's
actually
forget what's call it's uh
nebula
blue thank you so nebula blue is
sort
of an interesting textured finish
that
sort of very much changes based on
the
light mana I like it I really really
feel
that this is a super super tight
looking
phone sadly we don't have a
headphone
jack but the hardware is
absolutely
on point one of the nice
things
that I feel like I always
appreciate
on oneplus phones is you have
the
alert slider so just like on an
iPhone
you can very easily switch
between
vibrate silent ring whatever the
case
is and they just don't understand
why
more people don't do this something
that
returns from the 1 plus 60 is the N
display
fingerprint sensor and generally
speaking
it actually is pretty quick but
my
main issue just like with the 60 is
this
it just what is accurate as I'd
like
so when you compare it to something
like
the pixel or even the Galaxy S 10
II
which has the side mount to the
fingerprint
sensor both of those are not
only
quicker but more importantly they
seem
to be very very accurate this works
most
of the time and as always if I'm on
camera
it works on hard percent of the
time
because that's just the way it
works
but in normal use I feel like one
out
of maybe 10 times it doesn't pick up
my
finger and that's just not something
I
really deal with with pretty much any
other
kind of fingerprint unlock so the
speakers
aren't amazing so it does have
a
bottom firing speaker as well as one
that's
built into the tiny little
earpiece
it's fine I mean it's certainly
not
bad but it does not compare to
phones
such as the iPhone such as the
pixel
it's just decent and of course we
still
don't have a headphone jack which
after
taking a look at the pixel 3 a
kind
of it's got me nostalgic it's got
me
wishing for that headphone jack back
one
of the main reasons oneplus has been
popular
is they put very high
performance
specs and very well
optimized
software and a package was
generally
speaking doesn't cost a ton so
inside
here we have the absolute
top-of-the-line
as far as Android goes
right
now so we have a snapdragon 855
and
here I between 6 8 or even 12 gigs
of
ram now 12 gigs of ram might seem
excessive
it mean it's on that's like
more
than most laptops have but
realistically
it actually makes a lot of
sense
specifically only one
+7
Pro if you look at the price
difference
to go from 6 gigs to 12 gigs
and
to double the storage it's less than
$100
that that is an incredibly good
deal
I know some people might be upset
that
oh the oneplus is more expensive
now
considering that you're getting a 12
gig
of ram a snapdragon 855 flagship for
less
than $800 I mean yeah that's
actually
a great point even less than
thousand
dollars yeah it is so hard to
argue
with the value proposition on this
phone
right
I
mean sure if you want to go and make
sure
that you save every penny you can
you
can drop the nice display and go
down
to something like the 1 plus 7 but
considering
that you get the awesome
screen
with 90 Hertz again I can't
really
emphasize that enough just how
smooth
that is paired with these super
super
reasonable upgrades right I mean
as
long as you're ok with the blue color
because
I think like previous years the
blue
color is the only way to get the
maxed
out version like I have here but I
mean
it's only $90 to go from the bottom
spec
to double every single aspect to
the
phone Ram SSD everything I mean
that's
that's pretty killer I'm I'm
legitimately
impressed take a look
around
back and the oneplus 7 pro now
has
a new triple camera array so very
much
like some other 2019 flagships this
gives
you a ultra wide-angle lens with a
17
millimeter equivalent you have a 48
megapixel
standard shooter and there's
also
now a new triple optical zoom which
will
give you roughly as 78 milla lens
or
again three times the optical zoom
that
you would get with the standard
shooter
all of this being said this is
actually
a really nice benefit because
some
of the previous well plus phones
had
a depth sensor as a secondary camera
which
is code for not useful so the
camera
honestly has been one of the main
downsides
of a lot of previous one plus
phones
it's never really been bad it's
certainly
not been as good as something
like
the Google pixel or even a lot like
a
lot of the iPhones but this year
they've
actually stepped up in a big way
and
first of all it is legitimately
really
nice to have this spread of
cameras
so your ultra wide-angle camera
it
gets you a nice field of view well
it's
not the sharpest thing in the world
all
you do is jump into that 48
megapixel
shooter which to be fair does
actually
say that as a 12-egg fix a
little
shot it just kind of takes each
sort
of pixel on kind of combines four
pixels
into one but even so you're
actually
getting some nice image quality
here
and then when you zoom all the way
into
the 3 times optical zoom it
actually
gives you a very different
field
and
this is something that I really
appreciate
most phones such as the
Samsung
especially the iPhone but have a
2
X optical zoom and while that's nice
it
doesn't really give me that same kind
of
zoom that I'd like whereas with a 3x
optical
zoom it actually properly gives
you
it's a very unique look so if we put
me
1 + 7 side-by-side with the pixel
what
you'll see is that actually does a
little
bit more of an aggressive job
it's
sort of boosting the shadows so
it's
a little bit more HDR but also the
colors
are very much washed out photos
here
consistently look a little bit sort
of
d saturated maybe now that's not
going
to be necessarily a bad thing if
you
want to edit 8 but I definitely have
to
say the pixel images do pop a lot
more
now if you put something like this
side-by-side
with the iPhone especially
when
you get into lower light it makes a
huge
difference as the pixel as well as
the
want + do have some sort of nitesite
mode
so the 1 + calls it nightscape and
while
it's not quite as good as what
you're
getting on the pixel again when
you
put it next to something like the
iPhone
it makes a big difference my main
complaint
here is that they do just look
a
little bit sort of artificial a little
bit
too much processing going on to make
it
look like a natural image which
nothing
that the pics look cells with
all
that being said though the camera is
a
huge step up on the 1 + 7 no it's not
quite
as good as something like the
pixel
but because you do have the triple
lenses
and because all three of them are
fairly
competent it does mean - the 1 +
7
no longer has the camera as it's a
helis
heel a helis keel the 1 + 7 pro is
the
most expensive one + they've ever
made
and yet I think it does a good job
of
justifying that price tag in a world
$1000
plus flagships this delivers a
very
very similar performance but for
several
hundred dollars less my main
piece
of advice really here is get the
maxed
out model for only $90 you're
getting
double the storage and double
the
RAM and when you consider what this
kind
of phone is for less than or a box
I
mean there's really not a lot to
complain
about and that is sort of the
definition
of being worth it isn't it
