I upgraded to the OnePlus 8 from a Pixel 2XL, and I have thoroughly enjoyed this phone so far! I was a little hesitant buying this phone (with some complaining about the camera, and so many other phones releasing this fall), but this phone has surpassed my expectations! I wasn't interested in the OnePlus 8 Pro because of the larger size/weight and more expensive price tag. The OnePlus 8 is close to the size of my Pixel 2XL, which is big enough for me. Personally, I don't really care about wireless charging or water resistance. Also, I read the pro has a more prominent waterfall screen (the screen wraps around the sides of the phone more), which I was not interested in.
The screen is big and beautiful! The hole punch camera doesn't bother me at all, and I forget it is there most of the time. The 90hz screen was a huge selling point for me, and is a huge upgrade from a 60hz screen. It really makes the phone feel buttery smooth.
Speaking of buttery smooth, this phone will handle anything you throw at it! The combination of the beefy specs (emphasis on the 8gb/12 gb of RAM) and OxygenOS make for an amazing experience. I am not a big mobile gamer, but I did try PUBG to check out the 90 fps mode, which works and gameplay is smooth/fluid.
The battery life has been fantastic. It will definitely get though an entire day with heavy usage. The included 30w fast charger will charge up your phone super quick if you are in a rush. The phone also has battery optimization options that will help prevent the battery from degrading overtime.
The on-screen fingerprint reader is very fast and I rarely have issues unlocking the phone. I have not tried face recognition, because I just prefer the fingerprint reader.
The stereo speakers are pretty great, and I have no issues with the sound quality. I mostly use Bluetooth Bose earbuds with the phone, and haven't had any connection issues at all.
The build quality is very premium and feels like a $1000 phone. Hepatic feedback (vibration) is something people overlook in reviews, and it feels great and is subtle. The power and volume buttons also feel nice and clicky. The power button on the Pixel 2 XL felt spongy, and sometimes wouldn't even register me pressing it (it was super annoying). The notification slider (ring/vibrate/silent) is useful and should be on more Android phones. The glass back also makes the phone feel premium, but it is super slippery. It is also a fingerprint magnet (interstellar glow). So maybe slap a case or a D-Brand skin on the back (although the interstellar glow looks beautiful).
In my opinion, the camera is not nearly as bad as some people are saying. It still takes high quality photos, and software updates will only make it better. It isn't as easy as the pixel 2XL's camera and camera software, but it has potential! It definitely isn't on par with the OnePlus 8 pro or other $1000 phones, but it gets the job done. I am definitely not a photographer or photography enthusiast, so if you are looking for a phone that takes the best photos, maybe go with the OnePlus 8 pro. Also, the 2MP macro camera on this phone is pretty pointless (which may be my only negative point in this review). I know some people were having issues with the selfie camera (reports of blurry/fuzzy images), but I haven't had any problems with it so far.
Overall, this is exactly the phone I wanted. A super fast phone (high specs and 90hz screen) that I didn't pay $1000+ for. I will never be able to go back to a phone with a 60hz screen!

Beware Before Purchasing This Phone.
I give it 5 star so this post can reach many people of my exprience with this device. I strongly advise against purchasing this phone. Here’s my experience: I bought this phone in February, and it came with a 1-year warranty. After just three months of use, the phone prompted me to update its software. Following the update, a green vertical line appeared on the screen. My phone has always been in excellent condition—no scratches or damage—so I was surprised to encounter this issue. After doing some research, I discovered that many users have faced the same problem after updating their phones: a green line appears and doesn’t go away. Over time, additional lines show up, and eventually, the phone stops working altogether. Since my warranty was still valid, I contacted OnePlus for support. However, because my device is U.S.-based, they informed me that they could only repair it if I were in the United States. As I am not based in the U.S., they refused to provide any assistance. This is not my first disappointing experience with OnePlus. I previously owned a OnePlus 8T, which had similar issues. Believing it might have been a one-off factory defect, I upgraded to the OnePlus 8 Pro, only to face the exact same problem. To make matters worse, I asked the OnePlus agent if I could send the device to a service center in the U.S. at my own expense via DHL or FedEx. They declined my request, insisting that I must be physically in the U.S. to claim the warranty. I am thoroughly disappointed and will no longer recommend OnePlus devices to friends or family. This experience has left me completely done with OnePlus products.

This is my second Oneplus smartphone as I’m moving from the 6 to 8 and I’ve found a home with OnePlus. It may not have the name recognition in the USA that some of the other well-known brands do (Apple, Samsung, LG, Motorola, etc.) but now that more carriers are starting to adopt the brand in the states (Verizon & T-Mobile) it’s only a matter of time before it’s mentioned in the same breath as the Iphone or a galaxy. It has already topped many of the best phones of 2020 lists and for good reason. This phone is a beast, plain and simple. Whatever you throw at it, it can handle it plus more. Navigation in buttery smooth with a 90hz refresh rate screen. It’s got all the hardware you want under the hood with the latest Snapdragon processor on the market, 12GB of memory and 256GB of storage in the model I went with. It runs Android 10 with OxygenOS 10 UI which has always been good about giving the user great performance without shoving bloatware down your throat (it’s there but not in your face) They went away from the notch on the 6 and moved to a hole punch selfie camera on the 8 which really opens up the screen space. The rear cameras are high-powered topping out at 48MP and takes superb pictures and videos. The 4300 mAh battery has already lasted me a complete day and some change including a twelve-hour shift at work as an IT professional when I’m constantly using my phone to perform tasks. The warp charger is insanely fast as I can go to empty to a full charge in about 45 minutes. What it lacks, I don’t miss. The headphone jack is no more from the 6 but most all phones have said goodbye to that relic from yesteryear. I don’t want to pay a premium for an IP68 rating (just get a SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle case and thank me later) nor do I care about wireless charging. If those things are important to you, pay the extra $100-200 and upgrade to the OnePlus 8 Pro. While the phone is 5g capable, unless you’re on T-Mobile, you will likely only see 4G LTE if you’re like me (AT&T) since the device is ahead of the carriers in terms of coverage and compatibility. The best Android experience around all at an affordable price point in the top tier of flagship devices. This is the smartphone you want. Don’t hesitate and purchase with supreme confidence.
OnePlus does not get the credit it deserves

Comenzando con la entrega del producto está fue un poco tardada (más de 2 semanas) y tuve que ponerme en contacto con el vendedor pero después de eso llego rápidamente y sin ningún problema aunque al provenir de china todo en chino.Cliente de AmazonExcelente celular, una mejoría enorme desde un 5T pero no una revolución

Diseño: es un celular grande con una parte trasera de cristal muy bonita pero que rápido se ensucia, ya con una funda queda perfecto incluso el amplio borde las camaras.
Fotografía: No deja nada que desear, pasar de un OnePlus 5T este es toda una revolución en cuanto a la calidad, en modo nocturno tampoco a fallado incluso en situaciones difíciles. No esperaba que fuera tan bueno incluso comparándolo a las opciones de alta gama de marcas como iPhone
Rendimiento: es OnePlus así de sencillo el full HD+ y los 120 Hz hacen que la experiencia sea fluida y con el poder de los 12gb de ram todo lo que le pongas enfrente lo debora y lo corre con facilidas.
Batería: Tuve un viaje de 15 horas por carretera y decidí probar que tanto podia llegar a durar la batería, reduje la calidad a solo HD y con 60Hz pero con los datos móviles y el Bluetooth encendido todo el viaje y fue una maravilla llegué a mi destino usando FB y Twitter de forma periódica con aún más del 30% de la batería.
Conclusión: este es un magnífico dispositivo y si tienes el dinero para comprarlo lo recomiendo ampliamente, aunque en lo personal siento que no ha sido una revolución respecto a mi 5T anterior, es una mejoría y no hay que esperar que haya cambios tan drásticos cambiando de dispositivos que como ese aún funciona perfectamente y espero poder sacarle igual muchos años a este OnePlus 8Pro

Es un excelente celular, la batería dura bastante y la carga es muy rápida, los juegos como call of duty mobile o pubg van de maravilla, muy fluidos y con muy buenos gráficos, era usuaria de IPhone y pensé que sería mas dificil hacer el cambio a Android pero no, es muy fácil, lo recomiendo mucho
Y para aquellos que tengan dudas de si es de 8 gb de ram o no, pedí el Brillo estelar e igual estaba confundida por que en los detalles venía que era de 12, En mi caso si llegó de 12GB de ram y 256 Gb
