The 5. You can read the Telegraph's full review of the five star Samsung Galaxy S9 here. T he Galaxy Note 9 is basically a big Galaxy S9 with a stylus. Still, that stylus proves very useful as we noted pardon the pun in our review. This phone comes with an infinity display, a super fast processor and one of the best smartphone cameras available. It's also got a cool new wireless charging pod which turns the phone into a smart speaker - just like the Google Home Hub.
Plus, far cheaper than the Pixel 3. What's more, Google have promised that many of the major updates to its software from the Pixel 3 will eventually make their way to the Pixel 2. This one is a real bargain. It can also link up with other products like the Google Home or the virtual reality Daydream View.
T he Xperia 1 is the new top-end smartphone in town and, for phone Netflixers, it's going to be a welcome addition. For starters, it boasts a handsome design and a very powerful camera. It also offers all the functionality of any other top of the range Android phone for a fraction of the price.
While the Xperia XZ3 is one of the newest devices on the market, it launched at a lower price point than the Apple or Samsung equivalents, setting great groundwork for some of the best mobile phone deals around. L ike so many other phones released in , the latest Xperia XZ3 is really just a slight rehash of the truly innovative XZ2.
Review: OnePlus 7 Pro
The best part is that the XZ2 is an absolute steal these days. This time, with a Leica quad camera and 'super spectrum' sensor which boosts the clarity of its focal megapixel camera, nonetheless. Even the selfie camera an upgrade from the P20 Pro's 24 megapixels to 32 megapixels is a game-changer. T he Huawei P20 Pro has emerged as one of the most sought-after phones of the decade after launching back in March T rying to find the very best smartphone contract can be overwhelming.
Many providers only offer deals for a limited time and there can be huge price disparities between different networks. R ight now, some of the best value deals you can find are on Three, although O2 and Vodafone both have deals on larger data packages. Some of the best sim-only deals can be found with iD, Plusnet, Three and Virgin. It lacks wireless charging and a headphone jack. That's because OnePlus packed its latest flagship phone with pretty much every trendy phone feature we've seen in the last year or so, including a pop-up selfie camera, an in-display fingerprint sensor and multiple rear cameras.
But to remain relevant in this competitive industry, OnePlus needs to court users outside its loyal base. Since , when the company launched its first OnePlus One , OnePlus has garnered a reputation for making phones with premium specs at a wallet-friendly price. And while every year it gets harder for OnePlus to keep prices low compared to other brands, OnePlus has one of the highest increases in cost from model to model , the OnePlus 7 Pro is still a great value despite being the company's most expensive phone.
Oh and in case you're wondering, a OnePlus 7 does exist. There isn't any pricing or availability info on that yet. But there's no denying it continues to make powerful phones with coveted features at ridiculously competitive prices. In short, the OnePlus 7 Pro's sharp display, superb triple rear camera setup and fast processor make it not only one of the best phones for its price, but one of the best phones right now, period.
Originally published May Update, July 30 : Adds water-resistance tests observations. While most phones have a refresh rate of 60 frames per second put in another way, in one second the display refreshes 60 times , the OnePlus 7 Pro has a 90Hz display with a crisp 1,pixel resolution. By refreshing 90 frames a second, things like scrolling through webpages and apps feels really fluid.
The difference isn't necessarily night and day, but if you're a gamer, you'll definitely appreciate that extra smoothness. Keep in mind that the OnePlus 7 Pro isn't the only mobile device with an enhanced Hz display.

A few gaming phones , like the Razer Phone 2 , has a Hz display, and are showing users the benefits of those extra hertz. Even though I'm not a gamer I certainly find the feature compelling, and when I switched back to viewing the OnePlus 6T, the screen felt "draggy" even though I knew there wasn't anything wrong with it.
OnePlus 7 Pro review | TechRadar
Overall, the phone looks fantastic. The display is razor-sharp and thanks to the pop-up camera, it's all screen; there's no cutout tab or teardrop notch or "hole punch" dot.
Perhaps my biggest complaint, though, is that the phone feels heavy and big. That doesn't sound like a lot, but I definitely feel its weightiness when I hold it, especially when I'm taking a photo with one hand or attempting to stuff it in my jean pockets. On its rear the OnePlus 7 Pro has an ultra wide-angle camera, a standard camera and a telephoto camera. Photos are clear, bright and vibrant and I'm impressed with the camera's HDR rendering. It looks weird, not least because it's slightly off-centre at the top of the device and it makes an infuriating wrrizzz noise every time that it emerges.
We definitely got more than our fair share of odd glances on public transport as the pop-up noisily hoiked itself out of the phone, like a bit of spy apparatus from The Naked Gun. If you're not a fan of waiting the 0. According to OnePlus, the scanner can now unlock in 0. It looks weird and it makes an infuriating wrrizz noise every time that it emerges.
In our experience, it feels even faster than that.

With the OnePlus 7 Pro, it seems in-display fingerprint scanners have finally matched their physical counterparts in terms of speed and accuracy. Remember, this is still an optical sensor, which means it uses light to illuminate your fingertip to check the print — so don't expect to be able to use it in heavy rainfall, like the ultrasonic variant included in the Samsung Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10 Plus. It also means that if your fingertip isn't completely covering the portion of the screen used to check the print first thing in the morning your room will be illuminated by a glaring flash of radioactive-green light.
Not ideal. That's because getting the handset officially certified costs money and OnePlus says it prefers to conduct its own internal tests and pass the savings onto you. Call us old fashioned, but we'd much rather pay a little more and be safe in the knowledge that our handset has passed a standardised, industry-recognised test. Would you buy a car from a manufacturer that said it saved money by forgoing any official certification but the airbags definitely deployed in its own internal tests? OnePlus 7 Pro carries a triple-camera on its rear panel — a first for the company.
But this isn't simply a case of slapping an extra lens onto the camera found on its predecessor, this is an all-new set-up engineered from the ground-up. According to OnePlus, it's well aware that cameras have been one of the weakest elements of its past handsets — and that's something it's desperate to change with its latest effort.
As such, the new system is designed to be able to stand toe-to-toe with the flagship rivals that OnePlus has always positioned itself against. Combined, these two additional cameras mean the OnePlus 7 Pro is able to keep up with all the latest tricks you'll find on rival flagships, including fish eye touting ultra-wide shots and 3x lossless optical zoom. The latter works well and means you'll be able to convince Instagram followers that you were much closer to the front of the gig than you actually were.
There's also 10x digital zoom, but frankly, the quality starts to erode pretty darn quickly as you approach that upper limit. If you're looking for the best zoom available, this ain't it — you'll be happier with a Huawei P30 Pro. Overall, photos from the OnePlus 7 Pro are solid. Colours are vivid — but not over-saturated and zingy like those from the Samsung Galaxy S10 , and details are sharp. It's definitely a step-up from past efforts from the company. However, it's not going to take podium position in the smartphone photography wars anytime soon.
The triple-camera on the OnePlus 7 Pro can muster all the usual effects and tricks you'd expect from a modern flagship smartphone, including portrait photos with artificial bokeh-style blur behind the subject. These look pretty good, although if there is a dramatic light source in the background details can quickly get lost, something that doesn't happen with the Pixel 3 series.
It's also a shame that the amount of blur can't be altered after the fact. The default is pretty aggressive, which might suit your tastes, but it's a shame the option for something softer isn't there — something you'll find on almost every OnePlus 7 Pro rival in this price range. Video performance is solid, although not revolutionary. However, slow-motion is now available all the way up to a ridiculously sloooooooow frames-per-second, which is good fun and should result in some pretty unique moments for the Instagram feed.
As you'd expect from OnePlus — a company that has adopted "Fast and Smooth" as its mantra for software and hardware — this feels seriously slick. It's baffling that OnePlus can create such an exemplary, buttery-smooth Android experience when Google, the company that actually designs the open-source mobile OS, cannot match this level of performance with its flagship Pixel 3 series, which has been plagued with stuttering animations and crashing apps since its launch.
OnePlus favoured UFS 2. All of this means that if you're looking for the best showcase of what Android OS can be, look no further than the OnePlus 7 Pro. Out of the box, OnePlus 7 Pro runs Android 9.
Device features
The ability to record your screen, like on iOS, and edit and share the video from directly within the Gallery has been added to the latest version of the OxygenOS operating system, as well as a new "Zen Mode". The latter locks your handset for 20 minutes, stopping you from doing everything except make and receive emergency calls and take photos. OnePlus believes the restrictive new mode will appeal to students and families with phone-obsessed offspring.
Although there are plenty of warnings before you initiate the software feature — to make sure you don't accidentally switch it on in your pocket just before you really need to access your phone, there isn't currently a way to deactivate the feature early It's a nice idea, but feels like the kind of gimmick that Samsung used to pour into its own version of Android. Sure, this might help a handful of students go cold turkey during exam season, but it's not got anything like the depth or value of something like Digital Wellbeing — the usage tracking feature built into all Pixel smartphones — can offer.
Hopefully, OnePlus relegates this type of feature to an optional, standalone app in future, as one of the biggest appeals of its OxygenOS thus far has been its exemplary restraint with additional features. Elsewhere, OnePlus 7 Pro is fitted with an improved vibration motor designed to make notifications and calls more noticeable. It's also used to make the small haptic taps that have been scattered across Android 9. These are a lovely addition and makes it feel like you're really interacting with the operating system. Android still doesn't use its haptics quite as well as iOS, which has a little more consistency about when you'll get a tap from the software.
While there's no wireless charging option on the all-glass OnePlus 7 Pro, it does use the new Warp Charge 30 solution developed by the company. It's seriously fast. In fact, it's so good it changes how you think about charging your phone. Rather than planning well ahead, like leaving your handset on-charge overnight, you can literally plug it in for a few minutes in the morning, which makes sharing a single USB-C cable between your wireless headphones, smartphone and portable battery doable.
