OnePlus 8t Vs OnePlus 8! (Comparison) (Review) By Simple Alpaca

Welcome back everyone time to do the first OnePlus 8t comparison that I'm about to drop, and it's sad that OnePlus dropped this phone right before the iPhone 12s, because once the iPhone 12s come out, I'm probably never going to talk about this one ever again for at least after those comparisons, but I think the OnePlus 8t is actually like a pretty decent phone for the most part and definitely coming from the OnePlus 8. It's a pretty good upgrade, and I'm really liking OnePlus. You know six months of refresh, you know every couple months they go and refresh the device, and even just a couple of months ago they released the OnePlus word, which I thought was a pretty good device. But with the OnePlus 8t, it's pretty much. I guess the successor to the OnePlus 8. There is no OnePlus 8t pro and that's why it's a little confusing.

Usually we do have a pro model, but I think this year it's totally okay for the most part- and I guess OnePlus didn't really want to cannibalize the sales of the OnePlus 8 pro too much, and it totally makes sense. Now, there's a lot of similarities between these devices and I will definitely 100 tell you if you have an OnePlus 8 going to the OnePlus.8T is not a worthwhile upgrade at all you're, getting very few differences, and I don't really think you should go and upgrade at all. If I'm being completely honest, but if you don't have either of these phones, the OnePlus 8t is really the only one you can buy brand new. I think, but it's a perfect device regardless now, looking on the front, the OnePlus 8 had a 6.55 inch, fluid AMOLED display. Now it's a 1080p display, and you know it had a very little bezel around the whole entire panel of it.

You have that hole, punch display like I already stated, and it was a perfect panel, the screen curved out to the sides, which is something I love having, and I just love seeing it, and it felt extremely premium. Everything looked great fingerprint sensor in the display, and it had that 90hz refresh rate as well, which was really cool, so this phone, definitely when it came down to the panel, had a really, really good panel, and I'm glad they kind of switched away from that pop-up camera that they had on the 7t and the 7t pro, and all that or just the 70 pro and the 7 pro. I really don't mind having a whole punch display, if I'm being completely honest now on the OnePlus 8t. On the other hand, they have the 6.55 inch fluid AMOLED display. So it's pretty much the exact same display as the exact same resolution and everything.

However, the biggest difference is that with the OnePlus 8, we had that 90hz refresh rate. Now with the OnePlus 8t. We have that 120 hertz refresh rate, so a little of a difference right there. Keep that in mind, but even here I'll probably tell you going from 60hz to 90hz is a bigger difference, in my opinion, than going from 90hz to 120hz. So if you have an OnePlus 8, the 90hz display is still perfect and there may be even some cons with 120 yards.

You know you can, you know, decrease your battery life a little faster and all that stuff. But in this case I would still say: OnePlus 8t definitely is the far superior device when it comes down to the panel, but I think the OnePlus 8 panels is still perfect for the most part, both have USB type-c ports on the bottom and both have the same type of frosted glass back on the back, but for some reason I kind of remember the OnePlus 8 back feeling a little more different. It felt a little more frosted. Now it could be. My memory is just so bad or something like that, but this OnePlus 8t still feels like a frosted glass back for the most part, but I felt like the OnePlus 8 felt a little better, but I could be totally wrong now.

We also have kind of different camera setups this year, but also it's like whatever, and I'll go and hit on them right now. So the OnePlus 8 had a triple camera setup. You had a 48 megapixel wide angle, lens a 16 megapixel ultra light sensor. Then a 2 megapixel macro lens. Well, the OnePlus 8t, on the other hand, had a 48, megapixel, wide angle, lens a 16 megapixel ultrawide sensor, a 5 megapixel micro lens and then a 2 megapixel depth sensor.

Now OnePlus pretty much just added a depth sensor in here, and what I can tell you are this: for the most part, they are kind of like the same as that camera. Now I guess the OnePlus 8t camera is better because it's just an upgrade to the OnePlus 8, but I still think the OnePlus 8 realistically is going to be able to be doing exactly what you're going to do day by day than the OnePlus 8t. Now the camera modules themselves like the way they look change up a little as well. So we now have dual flash on the OnePlus 8t, where we only had a single flash on the OnePlus 8, and that might be a big deal to you. Also.

The camera is now in the top left corner versus being in the middle. I actually don't know which one I prefer. I mean I like the OnePlus 8ts, but I also like the OnePlus 8. If, I'm being completely honest, I kind of love the OnePlus 7ts camera module on the back like I was a circle. I really, really like that one, but these, I guess, are more or less the same.

It really doesn't matter now. With the OnePlus 8 camerae, you can do 4k at 60. Very good camera. For the most part, it's definitely not the best camera of 2020, but I think if whatever you're going to do with it, you're going to have a good time with it like it's really not that big of a deal when it comes down to this specific camera module. The OnePlus 3 camerae was definitely good, but it's not like you know.

You didn't. Have the telephoto lens you just really only had an ultrawide sensor nobody's going to use that micro lens for the most part with the OnePlus 8t just adds another lens that nobody's really going to use. Now the macro lens does go up in megapixel count, and you're getting that depth lens, but I really don't know. I don't even know what you can do with that. I don't even know anybody who uses that type of lens.

So if you use it, then I guess you have it here. You still maintain that 4k 60, you still maintain the ultrawide sensor and all that stuff and those stay the same megapixel account which is totally okay, but I think for the most part, if you're getting the OnePlus 8 or the 80, the camera is pretty much going to be 99 the same now, if you're getting the OnePlus 8t you're going to be getting a better camera for the most part, but I still think the OnePlus 8 is a tremendous camera as well, so in terms of the camera department that really pretty much covers it up. The front also has you know 16 megapixel sensors, on both too, so there are almost exactly the same cameras now zooming out of the cameras, no pun intended. We can go and talk about the software experience, and you know, as expected, these things are going to be on android 11. The OnePlus 8t is already on android 11, the OnePlus 8, I think, got the android 11 updates not too long ago, and I mean it's pretty much going to be supported for the same amount of time on both devices, so whether you get the OnePlus 8t or you get the OnePlus 8 they're both going to be getting the same software experience in software lifecycle.

It could be a case where maybe the OnePlus 8t gets a certain update a little before the OnePlus 8. But realistically every single one of these phones are going to be getting the same exact software versions as the other. So there's really not going to be any difference when it comes down to that, which is a good thing, could be a bad thing to some people, but I really don't mind too much and I think it's a perfect thing for these phones. Oxygen OS is still perfect. Android 11 is a little weird on it, but I'll get used to it.

Hopefully, in terms of software that pretty much covers it up now hitting on the performance side of things, the OnePlus 8 had that Qualcomm snapdragon 865 chipsets and onto core CPU and arena 650 GPU and eight gigs of ram on that base model and 12 gigs of ram on the top tier model, where the OnePlus 8 pro has almost exactly the same exact specs as the OnePlus 8. You have that same Qualcomm, snapdragon, 865, chipset that outscore CPU same arena, 650 GPU and the same ram models for the same storage models, so eight gigs of ram for that base model and 12 gigs of ram on that top tier model and, like I said before, I think that's a good thing. You know when there's really hasn't been crazy improvements I mean maybe next year, they'll add like 10 gigs of ram or something on the base model. But I think when it comes down to these two devices, you're not going to pick up one phone over the other. When it comes down to the performance aspect like yeah, the OnePlus 8t may be, or maybe even feel a little faster because it does have that 120 hertz refresh rate.

So I think that in and of itself is a pretty big asset for it. But when you have a phone like the OnePlus 8 that just came out like six months ago, obviously it's not old or anything like that, but it's a good performing phone and even side by side. You know if you're going to use one phone over the other one you're 100 not going to feel like one is the fastest phone in the world and the other one is the slowest phone. When I was using my OnePlus 8, I felt like that phone was one of the fastest phones I had ever used. It was really one of the fastest phones.

It was just so smooth and so flawless and everything like that and with the OnePlus 8t, it's more or less the same. Furthermore, it still feels like an extremely fast phone. Furthermore, it honestly even feels faster than my galaxy s20, and when I do my galaxy s20 comparison I'll have to test those out, but it feels like an extremely fast phone. I really don't have any problems with it, if I'm being completely honest and if you're going from an OnePlus 8 to the OnePlus 8t, I don't really think you're going to see that big of a jump in performance, I think you're going to see the biggest jump when it comes down to that increase in refresh rate, and you'll just get the feeling that it's faster, even though you know like I said before, 60 to 90 is more than 90 to 120. In my opinion, obviously 60 60 to 120 is a big jump.

So that's definitely going to be a humongous thing for sure for those of you who have like an OnePlus 7 or something like that, you're going to an OnePlus 8t, but I think the performance side of things the OnePlus 8t is going to be the faster one. I guess because it has to be it's the newer one, but I think the OnePlus 8 is like 95. At the same speed as the OnePlus 8t, so in terms of performance that pretty much covers it up now, ending it off with a battery life, the OnePlus 8t had a 4300 million power battery. The OnePlus 8 has a 4500mah battery. Now neither one of these have wireless charging nor reverse wireless charging, which is kind of weird.

I think the OnePlus 8 pro supports those, but these don't have it, which is kind of weird, but it is what it is, and I mean what I can tell you in terms of the battery side of things is that I think these two things are probably going to be around the same again with that increase in refresh rate on the OnePlus 8t you may seem to find. Sometimes maybe the battery life is just slightly a little worse, but I really don't even think that's totally the case. I think they adjusted the battery because of that. So you have a bigger battery on the OnePlus 8t, but it doesn't necessarily mean it's just automatically better battery and I think these two things are probably more or less the same when it comes down to it. So in terms of everything that pretty much covers it up and to kind of sum up this video and to answer the comparison, should you pick up the OnePlus 8t, or should you pick up the OnePlus 8 and what I can tell you are if it's between both these phones definitely picking up the OnePlus 8t is the better way to go.

It's a better phone. It has, you know, newer, refresh rate has a better camera. I guess, and for the most part I think the OnePlus 8t is a perfect device. There's really not that much to hate on it. Is it the perfect phone I mean? Probably not I mean I wish it had expandable storage.

I wish it had a wireless charging, and you know it still doesn't have an yip certification, which is very weird, but the OnePlus 8 doesn't have those things either and if it's between both these devices, like I stated the OnePlus 8t, is the better phone. It's just. You know better performing it's just nice having a better performing. It's just. You know a better phone, because it's the newer version of the OnePlus 8, and you know it's kind of recycling that same price tag.

So if you have to getting the OnePlus 8t is a perfect phone, but I will probably tell you if you have an OnePlus 8, getting the OnePlus 8t you're, not going to notice any difference at all. They are almost exactly the same phone. Besides just the increase, in refresh rate, a little increase in battery which you're not even going to probably notice and that extra camera lens on the back, like you're, probably not going to use it, and I just don't think it's worthwhile to go from an OnePlus 8 to an OnePlus 8t. Now, for those of you who have an older phone, if you're coming from like an iPhone 7 or a Samsung Galaxy s7, or something like that, then getting an OnePlus 8t. I would recommend that.

But again you can probably pick up an OnePlus 8 in the used market for a little cheaper than what the OnePlus 8t is going for, and I've seen these on Amazon all over the place, and I'll link them down below. I should have said this in the beginning with, and you can get them from there and help support the channel at the same time, but definitely when it comes down to what I'll say the OnePlus 8t. If it's 100, like 100 of a phone, the OnePlus 8 is like a 99 of a phone in my opinion, so that really pretty much covers it up. If you guys have any other questions or anything.
