OnePlus 8T vs OnePlus 7T: Amazing Phones! By TechieTechTech

The OnePlus 7t is probably one of the most loved OnePlus phones to date. Although the initial reaction to the huge circular camera ram design was lukewarm at best customers that are warmed up to the OnePlus 7t because of the excellent value it offered. Well, it's been a year, and we have yet another OnePlus phone which got mixed reactions for its design. The OnePlus 8t is upon us, and today let's compare the OnePlus 7t from last year to the latest OnePlus 8t. I am Rohan from techydirect tech, and here we go when you hold the OnePlus 7t in one hand and the OnePlus 8t in the other, you might get confused as to which one is the newer one out of the two. In fact, the OnePlus 70 has a few tricks up its sleeve with a frosted finished glass back, which looks and feels immensely better than the glossy back on the OnePlus 8t.

On the flip side, the OnePlus 8t has mad aluminum sides compared to glossy ones. On the 70. , I find the look and feel of matte better. But again you could have a different opinion. Honestly, though, both these phones have more similarities than differences, both of them have a flat screen on the front which I really like.

Both of them have gorilla glass, 5 on the front and the back they're both having excellent click buttons with a very useful mute slider. So what I can tell you objectively are that going just from the build quality and the materials used, the OnePlus 7t can still hold its own against the 80 and does not feel like a step-down or a predecessor by any means, but keeping build quality aside. Let's focus on the design here, because I think there is a wild difference in approach. The OnePlus 7t, with its large standout circular camera bump, is designed to stand out from the crowd. It is instantly recognizable from a distance.

I like that on my phone in an era where phones are getting increasingly similar to each other designs that stand out must be appreciated. On the other hand, the OnePlus 8t, with its camera, module through the top left and the glossy glass back honestly, looks like just another phone again. This is all personal preference, and you could like that, but I personally would have liked it better if OnePlus did not go for such a mainstream design, language granted, it is less obtrusive than the 70 with its smaller and shallower camera bump, but the design does not incite any kind of excitement. It gives more offers just another phone kind of vibe. Moving on.

Let's talk about the displays right off the bat. The OnePlus 80s panel looks more modern, with its selfie camera hole cut out on the top left of the display compared to the notch on the OnePlus 7t, when you put the devices side by side, another change that is instantly noticeable is that the chin on the OnePlus 8t is smaller, which gives the bezels a more uniform kind of look. The chin on the OnePlus 7t is slightly larger than the other three bezel edges, which looks a bit rough compared to the consistency of the 80s panel. Of course, both these displays are flat, which means they are wonderfully functional. You do not have to worry about the problems like accidental touches and glares that come with a curved display.

Sure it doesn't look as premium as a lot of flagships, but I'll always prefer functionality to form in this department. Talking about the actual panel quality, there are some small but significant upgrades in the OnePlus 8t, while both phones have the same 6.55 in size, the same 1080 by 2400 resolution and the same 402 pixels per inch. The OnePlus 8t has a higher refresh rate at 120 hertz compared to 90 hertz on the 70. , but you don't need me to tell you that that is just specs written on paper. I am here to share the experience of using both of these phones in real life.

In that scenario, the display on the OnePlus 8t is noticeably better. The colors, the sharpness, the saturation, are all a step-up from the OnePlus 7ts panel. The whites look more clean and bright too. To sum up, if you are deciding between the two phones, the OnePlus 8t does provide a noticeably better experience, but if you already have an OnePlus 7t, the display is not enough of a step-up to justify upgrading to the OnePlus 8t. Another thing that does not justify upgrading is the internals.

OnePlus phones tend to pack the most powerful components that are available at the time of launch, and that is the story with both the OnePlus 7t and the 80. The OnePlus 7t packs last year's flagship, snapdragon 855 processors, while the newer 80 packs this year's snapdragon 865 processors, the difference in day-to-day performance is basically non-existent. Sure heavy apps and games will load a second or two faster. Who cares about that? Smartphone CPUs have gotten so good in the past few years that even a two three-year-old flagship processor performs reasonably well today. Of course, if you are choosing between the two phones, I will always recommend the newer one, since the newer processor will stay faster for longer, but today, putting both these phones side by side head to head.

They both have equally good performance. What might be an important factor here for you is that the OnePlus 8t has 5g support, as per my research. Most other places still do not have enough 5g infrastructure in place today to make 5g an important factor in your buying decision, but people tend to use their phones for around 2-3 years now, even more and 5g should be more widespread by than moving on. Let's talk about the software. Both of these phones run oxygen OS, but the OnePlus 7t runs the older oxygen OS 10, while the OnePlus 8t comes out of the box with the newer oxygen OS 11.

Now, comparing the software on both these phones is pointless, since eventually it will be the same. So let's talk about something different software updates. The OnePlus 7 series was a flagship series last year and got timely updates until the OnePlus 8 series came about this year now the OnePlus 8 has had oxygen OS 11 for quite some time, while we don't even have a solid release date for the OnePlus 7 lineups. So if it matters to, you do remember that the OnePlus 8t will always get better and faster software support compared to the OnePlus 7t, simply because it's a newer phone. Let's talk about the cameras now the OnePlus 8t sports, a core camera setup on the rear, while the OnePlus 7t has a good old, triple camera setup.

The primary camera is the same on both devices. In addition to that, the OnePlus 8t has a 16 megapixel ultra-wide, a dedicated 5 megapixel macro and a 2 megapixel monochrome depth sensor. On the other hand, the 7t has a 16 megapixel ultra white camera, along with the dedicated 12 megapixel telephoto camera module, let's find out how they perform in real life. As always, we'll talk about the photos first and then move on to the videos. Even though the primary camera is the same on both devices, the image processing delivers significantly different results.

Pictures shorter than plus 8t are sharper and have more dynamic range with better noise processing. On the other hand, the stills produced by the OnePlus 7t have warmer tones with high contrast and somewhat accurate colors. The OnePlus 8t's ultra-wide angle. Camera has a wider field of view which takes sharper and more detailed pictures. The pictures shot with the OnePlus 7ts ultra-wide camera are way too soft and are not detail-oriented, especially in low light.

The OnePlus 7t has a dedicated, 2x telephoto lens, which takes sharper pictures with good both. On the other hand, the OnePlus 8t uses hybrid zoom with the same primary sensor to produce zoomed installations. They are serviceable compared to the pictures shot with the 70s telephoto lens. Both devices use the same 16 megapixel sensor in the front facing camera. The selfies shown on the OnePlus 8t have better skin tones and are slightly sharper on the flip side.

The selfies shot in the OnePlus 7t's front camera have a wider field of view. Surprisingly, the OnePlus 7t takes better macro shots compared to the 80s dedicated 5 megapixel macro camera. The portraits shot on the 70 are over smoothened with weird artifacts. The OnePlus 8t is simply the better portrait shooter here. Subject: separation performance is similar on both devices for people and objects.

OnePlus has significantly improved the low light performance on the OnePlus 8t, with better noise processing and has finally fixed the over smoothing issues. The OnePlus 7t loses out a lot of details, while the 8t retains them in both the lenses moving on to the videos. Both devices are at par in terms of video resolution and frame rate support for both the rear, and front cameras. The OnePlus 8t has the upper hand when it comes to optical image, stabilization lens support and noise processing. The is and overall camera user interface on the 8t has noticeably improved over the 70.

The OnePlus 8t also has new features like night video and a portrait video mode. In conclusion, while both the phones provide a decent smartphone camera experience, the OnePlus 8t fixes some critical issues in image. Processing that are still present on the OnePlus 7t. The app itself is more snappy and bug free too, even though the OnePlus 8t lacks a telephoto camera, it still has the overall better camera system, while the OnePlus 7t is still a decent shooter for its price. The OnePlus 8t is a step above and should be your choice.

If smartphone photography is important to you, the battery life on both the OnePlus 7t and 80 is pretty similar. While I am getting approximately one two and a half more hour of extra screen on time with the OnePlus 8t, that could be simply because of the fresh battery pack on this new OnePlus 8t compared to the old one on this one year, old, OnePlus 7t, but all in all, both these phones should easily last you a day of mid to heavy use where the 80 trumps ahead, though, is the charging remember warp charge, 30d one process, charging technology that charge the OnePlus 7t insanely fast OnePlus, just one of that with the new workshop 65 technology, which is making its debut on the 8t? This technology is no joke. I have seen the OnePlus 8t charge from zero to around 50 in just 15 minutes. It only takes 40 minutes to go from zero to 100. Now whop charge.30T is still fast enough for every user out there, but it doesn't put a smile on your face. The way bob char 65 do they even included the fast charging adapter in the box, which is amazing, considering how that might stop in the near future.

When we talk about biometrics, there isn't really any difference. Both phones have in-display optic, fingerprint sensors, which are fast, reliable and highly accurate. Both require you to turn the screen on before using them. I am willing to bet that the sensor hardware is the same on both these phones. Another thing that I would like to point out from my experience, using both these phones is the difference in the stereo speaker setup.

The speakers on the OnePlus 7t are actually louder than the OnePlus 8t at maximum volume. The sound quality is largely the same, but the OnePlus 7t can go noticeably louder than the OnePlus 8t. Talking about the phone call experience. Both these phones are pretty similar again providing a decent, earpiece and microphone combination. However, the OnePlus 7t seemed to be slightly better at catching a cellular signal and holding on to it compared to the OnePlus 8t.

In conclusion, the OnePlus 8t offers a number of small but significant upgrades over the OnePlus 7t beat the 120 hertz refresh rate over 90 5g support or a beefier processor. However, I still cannot recommend an OnePlus 7t user to upgrade to the OnePlus 8t. Even if you paid me to say it, the OnePlus 7t is still an amazingly capable phone, and I'm sure you can get at least two more years of life out of it easily. If you really want to upgrade at least wait a few more months till the OnePlus 9 comes out. However, if you're in the market choosing between the two phones, that is the OnePlus 7t and the OnePlus 8t, I will recommend getting the OnePlus 8t.

You get all of these neat little upgrades better software support down the line and a phone that will definitely last any year longer. The 8t definitely makes more sense when you consider these factors. I hope this video helped you out and if it did, please help us back by sharing this video liking.
