Everything that we know about OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro


The OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro share most of the same design language; both are large phones with a curved glass design and multiple rear cameras. While the OnePlus 7 Pro and 7T Pro had fun pop up front cameras, and the OnePlus 7's selfie cam was contained within a notch, both upcoming phones have the front camera inside the screen.

Compared to the base OnePlus 8, the 8 Pro has a slightly larger screen and additional cameras. Unfortunately, the headphone jack has not made a comeback on either model. Keep those headphone dongles around.

Besides the above leaks, someone managed to take photos of the OnePlus 8 pro being used on a chinese subway, though the images don't reveal much.

Both the OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro will be available in three colors: Interstellar Glow, Onyx Black, and Glacial Green. An additional 'Ultramarine Blue' color has been confirmed for the OnePlus 8 Pro, but it's unclear if that option will be available for the regular OnePlus 8.

Specifications

Most of the leaked specifications come from a tweet by leaker Ishan Agarwal, and some of the details have been confirmed by other sources. That being said, as with all leaked information, there might be a few errors or details left out. For example, we still don't know the exact camera setup for the base OnePlus 8—the 16MP lens is presumably an ultra-wide lens, but we don't know for sure.


The key differences between the two phones are the camera setup (the 8 Pro has more cameras), the battery capacity, and the screen size. Furthermore, the 8 Pro has waterproofing and wireless charging, while the base 8 has neither.

Will they have 5G support?

Yes. OnePlus CEO Pete Lau confirmed in march that the OnePlus 8 series will offer 5G connectivity. Furthermore, leaks say both phones will use the Snapdragon 865 processor, which has non-optional 5G support.

How much they will cost?

Even though we know a great deal about the design and hardware of OnePlus' upcoming phones, pricing information remains a mystery. OnePlus typically raises the price of its phones by $20-50 each year, and since the OnePlus 7T started at $600 in United States, it's probably safe to assume the base OnePlus 8 will cost around $650.

The cost for the 8 Pro is a bit harder to guess, since OnePlus has made a few high-end devices in the past year. While the 7 Pro was priced at a reasonable $670 in the US for the base 128GB/6GB model, the 7T Pro never came to the United States at all, though a 5G variant of the 7T Pro released on T-Mobile that costs $900.

When will they come out?

April 14th. OnePlus has a launch event for the 8 series scheduled for April 14th, which you'll be able to watch live on YouTube.
