OnePlus 7 Pro review: Spec monster with a gorgeous display but an average camera
FirstpostThe OnePlus 7 Pro is definitely a great, premium all-rounder, but its competition will ask you questions. The phone is packing the most powerful mobile chipset available to any Android phone today, more RAM than anyone would ever need, storage so fast that it will never break a sweat, a display that will put Samsung’s Galaxy Note 9 to shame, a camera system that looks like it’s ready for anything, and a battery that’s more than capable of powering this phone to victory. Versus the Apple iPhone XR: The sheer power and engineering brilliance of Apple’s A12 Bionic chip and iOS 12 means that even the Snapdragon 855-powered OnePlus 7 Pro is just an also-ran. The iPhone XR’s single rear camera is certainly not as flexible as the OnePlus 7 Pro’s trio of cameras, but the XR can capture better images and video than can the Pro. A champion in the making If anything, I’m more impressed that OnePlus produced something as capable as the OnePlus 7 Pro than I am disappointed by the camera performance.
