Specifications of the OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro
leaked last month, telling us how the duo will differ. Today, we are looking at
their full specs sheets, complete with pricing info courtesy of a Slovakian
retailer which leaves little to the imagination ahead of the April 14
unveiling.
OnePlus has already confirmed that 8 and 8
Pro will be powered by the Snapdragon 865 SoC, and from a previous leak, we
know that both smartphones will have two memory versions - 8GB/128GB and
12GB/256GB. However, today's leak reveals that the 256GB option will not be
available in all color variants. The two smartphones will run Android 10 out of
the box, likely with a new version of OxygenOS, and they will come with Dark
Mode 2.0 with support for more apps.
The OnePlus 8 will sport a 6.55"
FullHD+ 90Hz Fluid AMOLED display, having an aspect ratio of 20:9 and a pixel
density of 402ppi. The Pro model, on the other hand, will pack a 6.78"
QHD+ 120Hz Fluid AMOLED panel, with a pixel density of 513ppi and an aspect ratio
of 19.8:9.
A previous leak revealed that OnePlus 8
will pack a triple camera setup, comprising of 48MP, 16MP and 2MP modules,
whereas the Pro model will sport a quad camera setup, which will be a
combination of two 48MP snappers, one 8MP cam and one 5MP unit. The latest leak
sheds more light on the camera department. The 48MP unit on the vanilla 8 will
have a Sony IMX586 sensor, with 16MP and 2MP modules having ultrawide and macro
cameras, respectively.
The Pro version gets Sony IMX689 for the
main camera, while the secondary 48MP unit has IMX586 sitting behind an
ultrawide angle lens, which will also let users capture macro shots of objects
from as close as 3cm. The 8MP module is a telephoto camera (3x optical, 30x
digital) with OIS, while the 5MP unit is described as a color filter (machine
translated from German) in the specs sheet that will let you capture photos
with "unique style through artistic lighting effects and filters".
The source also claims that OnePlus 8 Pro will feature 3D Audio Zoom and have a
flicker sensor in tow.
On the connectivity front, the OnePlus 8
pair will have WiFi 6, NFC, Bluetooth 5.1, and a USB-C port. The duo will also
feature stereo speakers and Dolby Atmos and will come with an improved
vibration motor. Pricing for the OnePlus 8 will start at € 729 for the 8 GB RAM
and 128GB storage model while the 12/256GB trim will go for € 835. The 8/128GB
OnePlus 8 Pro will set buyers back € 930 while the top spec'd 12/256GB model
will go for € 1,020. Both OnePlus 8 models are expected to go on sale starting
April 30.
