OnePlus 8 Pro

It comes with a 6.7-inch Quad HD+ display, with curved glass on the front and back, and it's available in both black and blue, plus an all new, stunning glacial green. 

The glacial green has a unique frosted glass finish that's designed to feel great and look great. 

As for that screen, it's a Fluid AMOLED panel that's capable of frame rates up to 120 frames-per-second, thanks to its 120Hz refresh rate. It's also got 240Hz touch response to ensure there's no lag between you touching the screen and the resulting action on the screen. 

It uses MEMC to make lower refresh rate video upscaled to the 120Hz and smooth, and is capable of producing HDR10/10+ content. In short: it's bright, with vivid natural colours and a lot of dynamic range. 

On the back, the OnePlus 8 Pro has a 48-megapixel main camera, with an ultra-wide 48-megapixel camera with 120-degree field of view. It also has a 3x telephoto camera, and an unusual colour filter camera. 

For videographers, there's OIS and EIS which combines to smooth the 4K video footage, plus enhanced sound. It can zoom in on the sound you want, plus cut out wind noise. 

Inside, there's a Snapdragon 865 processor, plus up to 12GB LPDDR5 RAM and up to 256 GB UFS 3.0 storage. OnePlus thinks this power makes it the best gaming phone around. 

There's also a 4,510mAh battery, which is the biggest battery in any OnePlus phone so far. Which can charge quickly using Warp Charge 30T. 

Plus, for the first time, there's Warp Charge 30 Wireless. It's fast wireless charging. You can get 50% of the battery topped up in 30 minutes.
