## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: A regular person's review - I like my toys, but I'm by no means a tech expert / audiophile or anything of the kind. But I can still appreciate a good product. This phone is easily the best phone I've owned (coming from Samsungs galaxy S series). Fingerprint reader is snappy and reliable, screen is gorgeous and speakers are great! I'm sure you've seen many reviewers saying the cameras are much improved etc etc. But I'd still say it's the phones weakest point. They are by no means bad but even compared to my old s8, they're nothing special. Plus the camera app seems to lag slightly when looking round in photo mode, which is unusual for this speedy phone! Talking of speed, the phone chews up everything. Games, videos, charging - lighting quick. Chrome app has occasional freezes which I've seen numerous oneplus owners complain about but it's infrequent and not a deal breaker. Games look stunning on the screen, everything looks stunning on this screen! Running at 120hz 1080p is easily crisp enough, but 1440p is a nice option should you need it. I've had no stutter or lag on any game as of yet, and even loading times are stellar. And the battery holds out well, getting me through every day effortlessly. Sometimes 2 with light usage. For a "flagship" phone in 2020, I think it comes with every feature you could expect, with no major USP... But it still undercuts the competition on pricing (bought mine on sale for £699). The design is a prime example, it's gorgeous but the same as almost every other flagship out there.. However if we still have to have a hole punch camera, oneplus got it right with the best location on the screen. Overall, if you're after a great phone to rival the very best out there, you won't go wrong here. Would 100% recommend it. ********UPDATE********* Chrome lagging and view in camera app no longer lag!
Review: Slick design, a premium device at a reasonable price - Saw the specs on this phone and couldn't resist. I've had the Huawei Mate 10 Pro since it launched and going from that (which at the time felt like I'd reached the top of the mountain) For my first OnePlus device, feels like I've reached the clouds. The 120Hz and 60FPS makes streaming crystal clear. I'm choosing to watch movies here rather than on my 4KTV or high-end PC. The sound is profound, I've shown my friends videos from over 2 metres away while outside and they could hear everything very clearly. Full Volume can be a bit bumpy though (but I doubt you'll need it). The battery will absolutely last you all day (usually), but during lockdown I've been charging more than I care to admit. No matter! Warp Charge has my phone back to full in (I think) 45 mins and with Wireless Charging I doubt I'll ever find myself stuck somewhere without battery for long. The back-end camera is amazing for photography. Green and blues are vibrant and visually appealing. The front-end camera does occasionally have some fuzz when it comes to selfies and other objects. Recording video at 4K 60FPS is great (if you use a tripod), unfortunately too much movement can make it stutter. The phone has a specific mode for gaming, while I stick to console - the games I have tested (contest of champions, Pokemon Go, Yu-Gi-Oh) all look better and run faster than ever before. I have seen many OnePlus fans complain about the price, but it in many ways excels the S20 Ultra 5G and the Iphone 11 Max. Both of those devices are reaching the quad-digits, while this has the same performance at a much more reasonable price. It's been a month and with every Oxygen OS update it seems to get better. With enough customisation to make this device truly my own.

A: Compatible with ALL UK carriers, including o2, giffgaff, and of course, EE

**Q: How far around the sides of the phone does the screen go? Also does the screen protector that comes preapplied cover the side glass?**

The screen protector covers it most of the way, but the rest is mostly covered by the phone case that also comes supplied with it. There's maybe a millimeter of exposed glass, but I haven't found that anything ends up touching it in regular use.

A: Amazon uses DPD,royal mail,FedEx,hermes...

**Q: I am on a tesco 5g plan in england.  will the 5g work with this plan? thanks.**

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ About as perfect as you can get right now.
*by A***M on 22 July 2020*

I've actually changed my review on this phone from 1 to 5 stars after OnePlus ironed out a few issues. Love this phone now, pretty much everything about it. The front facing speakers are great, the software is awesome, the screen is amazing (apart from the curve, I personally prefer flat panels), build quality is superb, battery lasts all day with 5 - 6 hrs screen time whilst NFC/Bluetooth) WiFi/Data enabled. Camera is up there too - video isn't great in low light but pictures are really good. Updates have been very regular too. Can't say I've ever owned a phone for five months and still been excited about it, the butter smooth operation is ridiculously enjoyable to use. The screen refresh rate and fast processing go together so well. Can't understand why you'd spend over a £1000 for the Samsung equivalent. The 8 pro's processor is better (in the UK anyhow), the battery life is apparently better, it supports LDAC and external DACs - which the S20 does not. The UI is better with no bloatware. Do yourself a favour.
