THE MOST UNDERAPPRECIATED CELLPHONE IN AMAZON WHICH NEEDS MORE LOVE THAN 1 STAR
RATINGS
I am writing this review after reading all the negative reviews on this cellphone and I bought this even after reading the negative reviews. The reason being, all the bad publicity the cellphone was getting is because of its heating issue and heating issue only. If you are a smartphone user you will know that the
company will release an update to counter these issues eventually. All the major companies have this problem but they get resolved within the 1st month of the release. Now I would like to say the even I have faced the abnormal heating issue while charging for the first time but after updating to Oxygen OS
11.2.3.3 LE15DA which was immediately available all the heating issue has gone(at the time of this review 11.2.4.4 LE15DA is released for even better battery performance). The rest of the aspects is just why this cellphone makes the best phone in the market as on date (for me at-least). I am using the OnePlus Pro 12GB variant.
Why you should buy this cellphone
The camera is Amazing: I want to highlight the best at the beginning because we all know why we are buying this cellphone (mainly because of the Hasselblad branding).Yes you can compare the pictures taken with this cellphone with IPhone 12 or Samsung S21 (pro ultra whatever their top tiers are named) I won’t compare the MegaPixels as it is known universally better MegaPixel doesn’t always mean better photos. The main thing you need to see here is its color reproduction. It is almost to the colors as seen by you which is great for the price you are paying.The front camera also is good but the main highlight is the main camera and the wide angle camera.
The LTPO display: It is said that the cellphone uses the LTPO display which varies the screen refresh rate between 1Hz to 120Hz on the type of app you are viewing, I haven’t personally seen it drop below 60Hz but it is said it helps reduce the battery drain. But FHD+ display is just beautiful to look at. Smooth, responsive and Bright. All the traits needed for a good display.
IP68 rating: The OnePlus Pro comes with water resistance and there isn’t much to talk about it here.
Warp Charge: The cellphone charges from 0-100% in 30 minutes with the 65Watt charging brick available in the box. Yes there is a charger in the Box. If you are interested in buying the 50w wireless charger that will take 40 mins for full charge from 0.
Oxygen OS: The near stock OS is such a good move by the company as you don’t get any
additional bloatware or ad hungry apps (which are rampant in Xiaomi cellphones). Everything is simple and easy to access.
Speed: Snapdragon 888 with 12 GB of RAM makes this cellphone one of the top contender in the current cellphone market. All the games run smooth. No lag what so ever. I play
COD:Mobile and Free fire which run without lag at max settings.
Speakers: The audio output of the cellphone is clear and loud and sounds really premium.
Things that need Improvement:
Battery: Although you get a fast charging capability. The battery drain is too rapid. It is not bad but full charge lasts around 4-5 hours of heavy usage and for a cellphone which is flagship should have better stability.
No 3.5mm port for headphone jack. This is not a major issue as most of the users are now using wireless earphones but it would be really nice for gamers to have this option.
Placement of Fingerprint scanner: Too low that’s all I have to say. The scanner is top notch as the response time is lightning fast. But the placement is too low to be called comfortable.
Ultimately this cellphone is the best at its price range I can’t stress this enough. When comparing other flagships which cost you around Rs.105000/- (Samsung, Apple) you invest Rs.70000/- and you get almost the same specs along with charger. One suggestion from me is please go for OnePlus Red Cable membership it costs around Rs.2000/- and gives you 1 year additional warranty along with other benefits (just a suggestion).
I would give this phone 4.5 out of 5 Stars.I would like to end it with this one message “To all the people who review any product and give a poor rating just because of one flaw (a flaw that can be corrected eventually). Please mention the other aspects too (the ones you liked) as the company, developers and
all the people involved in the process of manufacture and sales of the product put a lot of love and effort into the release of the product and just because of the poor rating people will miss out on a great
product “this cellphone needs all the love from the consumer.
