I got the Euro prices - just wondering how that converts to Sterling 
EDIT - prices up on their website now. £559 for the 8/128, with the other model not currently available. Comes with a free Sandstone bumper ordering direct.
EDIT - now £549. Either I'm going blind or they did an on-the-fly correction.

It's using the same sensor the 8pro uses for the UWA. And the same one used in the 7 Pro and 7TPro. 8 pro uses the bigger and better sensor.
Not surprised. Saying that, willing to bet it will get some award on his best phone video.
That's a huge stretch. He was probably paid like mkbhd is.
If you're saying mkbhd was paid he still mentioned that the cameras were a bit meh.
OP cameras were always 'good to excellent' which I'm personally fine with.
The thing that I've found off-putting is that OP has now got two different coloured flashes and mkbhd said that there's no need now for that, I can't help but feel OP put it on because it looks more than it is at the back so that it looks like a Samsung s20/note at the back even though it's not.
Don't get me wrong I really like OP and was going to get the 8T but to me it's like the other one they had with this weird lens where you could see through things ie superfluous and a waste! Just can't get my mind off this big square at the back with all this nonsense on it! OCD on my part eh.
MMMM...not sure what to do now..I wanted a break from curved screens.

I'm confused with the display of the 8T compared to the 8 Pro. We've gone from 3168x1440 @ 513 PPI on the 8 Pro to 2400x1080 @ 402 PPI on the 8T. Is this because the 8T has gone back to a flat screen and Oneplus can't fit a 1440p display into a smaller, flat screen?
Is it a case of buy the 8 Pro if you want a bigger, higher res, more PPI screen and buy the 8T if you want the latest specced phone with Android 11 out of the box, a higher capacity battery and faster charging?

I honestly think the new norm (save for highest of high end devices) will be FHD. QHD is a wholly unnecessary luxury IMO and I believe it only became a 'thing' because at the time (circa 2015ish) it was the only development manufacturers could wheel out to make us upgrade. High refresh has been a much better development and now that consumers begin to realise that FHD and QHD produce effectively the same user experience manufacturers are reverting to FHD.
Furthermore, QHD was big back then to allow for sharper VR usage but again that has rather fallen by the wayside.
I wouldn't fully discount it just for that - however that's your prerogative.
I'm not just saying this to self-validate my recent S20 FE purchase but I have noticed that the 6gb S20 FE handles my apps much better (or more to my liking) than my 8gb 7T Pro. I always found that despite the roomy 8gb afforded in the 7T Pro its management of said RAM was never stellar.
In the past he gave the OnePlus 6 best overall phone, over the Galaxy Note 9. The Note was easily better, sw is debatable.
Ok well that's then, he wasn't all singing and dancing toward the 8t.
I am tempted toward the 8t. Not sure what to do yet.
