OnePlus 7

OnePlus 7 product details

The OnePlus 7 is the logical successor to the six months earlier announced OnePlus 6T. It looks almost the same, has almost the same features and should cost almost as much. Why this OnePlus 7 is the better or worse choice we would like to explain for you here.

Incremental improvements

To be honest, the OnePlus 7 is hardly worth considering if you already have a OnePlus 6T. The screen is exactly the same, the housing has no renewal and also the battery is the same. The differences that do exist justify an upgrade with difficulty. This does not mean that there are no differences. Let's list them all. Starting with the power source. OnePlus has chosen the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon; the Snapdragon 855. It's just a little faster and more powerful. Furthermore OnePlus applies a faster type of memory; UFS 3.0. Apps are therefore started faster. There are now also stereo speakers. OnePlus uses the bel-speaker with the loudspeaker at the bottom of the device. So they are not 'real' forward facing speakers.

48 megapixel

Still, the biggest difference is in the camera. OnePlus still applies two, but on the OnePlus 7 we find this time a 48 megapixel main camera. This one has a double image stabilization which not only prevents that you have less frequently moving photos but it also helps to capture longer light in the dark. So better night shots. The OnePlus 7 has a special night mode; Nightscape 2.0. In this mode you screw up the exposure even more for when it is really pitch dark. The second camera ensures that depth is recognized and is therefore able to take beautiful portrait photos. The selfie camera is an old acquaintance; we already found the 16 megapixel camera in the OnePlus 6T.

Main OnePlus 7 specifications

• Spacious 6.41-inch Optic AMOLED screen with Gorilla Glass protection
• 48 + 5 megapixel camera with portrait mode

• Fast 4G Internet (LTE Cat.16)

Existing improvements

But also things we saw before have improved. Think of Screen Unlock. The integrated fingerprint scanner has become faster and more reliable. It's still embedded in the 6.41-inch Optic AMOLED screen. The vibrator has also been overhauled and is now more powerful. Ideal for gaming. All in all, small improvements that add up to a lot. If you come from older OnePlus phones, the OnePlus 7 is a no-brainer. Do it! If you come from the 6T you might want to check out the OnePlus 7 Pro or wait half a year for the OnePlus 7T to come out.
