OnePlus 7T Pro Features

The OnePlus 7T Pro is a strange phone, in fact, we are not entirely certain about why it even exists, as the upgrade here over the OnePlus 7 Pro is minuscule; however, that doesn’t make it any less of a great phone to buy right now.

Design

If you’ve used the OnePlus 7 Pro, you’ll be familiar with most of the design language here. It is actually very difficult to tell the 7T Pro apart from the 7 Pro, but that’s not an issue as that was a great-looking device.

The back of the smartphone has a matte finish, and there is only one color available called Haze Blue that you can see pictured throughout this review.

The device itself is quite large in order to facilitate that big display, and that may make it difficult to hold for those with smaller hands. It’s a comfortable device to have in your hand, though, thanks to the rounded edges of the rear and The 7T Pro measurement is 162.6 x 75.9 x 8.8mm and weighs 206g, making it one of the heftier handsets we have seen recently.'

Despite that on the bottom edge of the OnePlus 7 Pro are the SIM tray, USB-C port, and a single speaker. You won’t find a 3.5mm headphone as that is a feature OnePlus dropped a while ago.

It is also important to note that the OnePlus 7T Pro does not launch with an IP water resistance rating the company does not submit its smartphones for testing by the body that issues that standard – so you probably shouldn’t get this device wet to ensure it doesn’t get damaged, although that’s not to say it won’t survive the odd splash.

Display

One of the features of the OnePlus 7T Pro is its gorgeous, large display in this respect, the phone can compete with any other top-end handset you may be considering.

It is a 6.67-inch display that is slightly curved at the side edges and looks gorgeous when you are holding the phone. The resolution of the smartphone is 3120 x 1440, which comes out to 516 pixels per inch.

There is the icing on the cake display is that, unlike a lot of other handsets you may be considering, there’s no notch, punch-hole or anything else encroaching on the display. Instead, the front-facing selfie camera sits within a pop-up mechanism that comes out of the top of the device whenever you activate the shooter. It is a feature we found to work very well when it was introduced on the OnePlus 7 Pro, and the camera deploys just as swiftly and smoothly here.

If you are worried about snapping this camera off when it’s poking out of the top of the phone, we’d say that’s very unlikely. It is possible that you can damage it by knocking it or dropping the smartphone but the OnePlus has included a feature that detects if you have dropped the handset, and automatically retracts the camera to help it survive the fall.

We found the maximum brightness on the display to be very impressive and overall everything we did on the handset looked very good. As mentioned above, the display boasts a 90Hz refresh rate, which is a rarity in phones most current devices have screens that refresh at 60Hz.

What does that mean in practice? It means that the display here refreshes more than 1.5 times faster than those on most other smartphones, which makes for a smoother viewing experience. This is particularly noticeable when you are gaming, or scrolling through social media feeds such as Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. It may not be something you are instantly aware of but once your eye gets used to it you will notice the difference if you switch back to a 60Hz device.

There is also a fingerprint sensor embedded in the display. This is much easy to reach and found that it worked quickly and accurately throughout our testing period, which is by far the easiest way to unlock the phone.

You can still use patterns lock, your PIN, or Face unlock instead of your fingerprint lock, but we found the most efficient option was to use the on-screen sensor.

Specs and Performance

OnePlus has been furnished the OnePlus 7T Pro with the latest and greatest chipset from Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 855 Plus. That is paired with 8GB of RAM, making this a powerhouse of a handset.

The phone is only available with 256GB of storage variant, with no option to expand this through SD card much like other OnePlus smartphones. That is more than enough for the average person.

The power on this phone is also impressive. In daily use, we did not encounter any problems with stuttering, and it is able to load and also run the latest games with ease. Our benchmarking tests have included using Geekbench 5, and here the 7T Pro returned a score of 2584. It is very difficult to compare with other flagship phones at the moment as the Geekbench software has recently been updated so most of our benchmarking has been done on a previous version and is not easy to compare with others. We have run Geekbench 5 on the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus 5G, which has been scored 2197.

It was also beaten in the same test by the Sony Xperia 5, which has been scored 2655, On the other hand, the iPhone 11 blew it, and all other phones out of the water with a score of 3186.


That said, we found that the 7T Pro performed daily tasks without issue and it is unlikely that you will notice those benchmarking results reflected in your day-to-day life.

Software

The OnePlus 7T Pro arrives running Android 10 software, but Android here doesn’t look like it does on other smartphones, as it’s a specific overlay made by OnePlus called Oxygen OS.

It is designed to have a unique look that matches the OnePlus branding and you also get a few OnePlus-exclusive features thrown in for good measure.

Everything looks good within the software but if you are used to stock Android or another manufacturer take on Android, you may find it takes you some time to adjust. Extra features included within the latest version of Oxygen OS are a dark mode we found it looked stylish across the entire system and you can also get existing features such as Zen mode, which prompts you to turn your handset off to give yourself some peace and quiet.

You can still access emergency numbers when you are in Zen mode but it is designed to give you a moment’s peace when you’re easily distracted by your smartphone. It is a great and unique idea and you may find it useful within the software.

Camera

The camera array on the OnePlus 7T Pro is a triple-camera setup with a 48MP main shooter joined by 16MP ultra-wide-angle and also 8MP telephoto options.

On the other hand, the OnePlus 7T Pro can take some good-looking images, but it does not have the best camera we have seen on a smartphone.

Meanwhile, images sharpness has been improved recently on OnePlus’s cameras, like its predecessors the 7T Pro struggles in low-light conditions, with images looking noisier than we had expected from a phone at this price point; there is, however, a Nightscape mode for when you need to shoot in the dark, which we have found to produce generally better results.

The ultra-wide camera came in useful on multiple events during our time using the handset, and it is especially appreciated when you need to squeeze more of a scene, or more people, into the frame.

The telephoto lens is also very impressive too, enabling you to zoom in or out on subjects without sacrificing image quality below you can see comparison shots taken with the ultra-wide, normal, and telephoto lenses. Video shot on the 7T Pro looked very impressive and you can shoot 4K footage if you want maximum quality. 

The pop-up selfie camera is 16MP but while that number looks much better on the paper, it is not the most impressive selfie camera we have used. It is fine for the kind of shots you will be uploading to social media, but that’s about it.

Battery Life

The OnePlus 7T pro included 4085mAh battery which performs admirably, matching the OnePlus 7 Pro and perhaps even exceeding it in some regards. We found it would comfortably last an all day on one charge, even with extensive usage.

During the week-long period, we were using the handset, on only one day did we need to recharge it before turning in for the night at around 11 pm, and that can not be said of every smartphone on the market.

Fast-charging technology is also where OnePlus has put its focus on this handset and we found we could top up the 7T Pro quickly when we needed to, using the included charger.

OnePlus says this handset charges 25% faster than the previous OnePlus handset and while we are not able to test that specific claim, we did find that it charged too fast for us to be able to plug it for 20 minutes and get enough juice to last us through the day.

On the other hand, OnePlus is placing the emphasis on fast charging rather than including wireless charging on a phone. OnePlus remains convinced that wireless charging is not a useful feature, but it is a noticeable omission here given that top-end handsets from the likes of Samsung and Apple include it.
