I rarely take selfies so I get where you're coming from, however the punch hole on my Note 10 really hasn't been intrusive. Most times it's hidden by the status bar anyway.

I don't believe it does, certainly if the leaks are anything to go by. There are rumours of an 8 'Lite' but I've seen nothing concrete. I mentioned over on HUKD (on a 7T thread) that people who prefer flat screens and are between buying a reduced 7T now or wait until the 8 would probably be better served by buying a 7T as it could well be the last OP device with a flat screen for some time.
Pete Lau says the OP8 series won't be thousand dollar phones, which is tantamount to admitting the top spec 8 Pro will retail at $999.
Which probably equates to £899 for the 12/256 model in the UK. Or maybe that'll be the price of a super spec McLaren edition.
However it turns out, it's looking to me like +£100 across the board. For 5g that few people want and way fewer people need.

Nope, but coronavirus didnt stop Samsung, Oppo or Xiaomi significantly bumping up the prices of their flagships recently. It doesn't seem like anything will slow the inflation busting relentless ballooning of top tier phone prices.

This will be the trend for some months yet.

So far it hasn't put any tangible downward pressure on top tier phone prices. Maybe it'll happen, but it hasn't yet.
. Liking this snippet....OnePlus phones have terrible resale value (I only use recyclers rather than eBay), so a £900 OP8 Pro will be worth £200 tops when I come to sell.
I never say never, but it's looking increasingly likely I'll wait for the iPhone 12 since I ultimately don't care whether my handset has iOS or Android on it.

I've dead set on OnePlus 8 Pro. I tend to use my phone 3/4 years.
I'm still rocking a Samsung Galaxy S8 from day one. Time for a change. Just wating for OnePlus event. Currently on Furlough, will need to get my priorities right.
When it comes to resale value, don't care tbh, as i would just pass it on to kids/nephew etc etc...

Battery was fine for the first 18/20 months. Yes on certain days I will need to charge it twice. Lately battery has had it days as battery is only lasting me 4/5 hours Tops.
Luckily I'm at home so don't need to worry about it and not using it as much

My oneplus 5 is still a battery champ. Its a secondary phone now but it's held up great.
Pixel 3 on the other hand is *****. And it's only gotten worse.
Looking forward to the new OP handsets.
Yes, Samsung throttle to protect the battery. The OP 7t series removed the throttling. If Samsung did the same it would 0 to 100 in 33 minutes at 45W.
Testing my Note10+ 5G with official 45W resulted in:
0 to 22% in 7 minutes
0 to 30% in 10 minutes
0 to 53% in 20 minutes (-7%)
0 to 77% in 30 minutes (-13%)
0 to 90% in 41 minutes
0 to 95% in 51 minutes
0 to 100 in 58 minutes
25w charging test taken from online as not done this one yet.
10min~22%
30min~64%
60min~96%
64min~100%

£70 isn't too bad when you consider Google were charging that (or maybe £75 was it?) for their 10w wireless charger!
I still don't see me buying a OnePlus 8 to replace my 7T Pro just for wireless charging (as much as I'd love to). Add £70 to the price for that wireless charging and it just isn't worth it. And OnePlus have never been shy about high pricing for its accessories - just go and have a look how expensive a mains charger and cable are on their site. If the wireless charging is not proprietary then customers may have a chance but if it's locked down (apologies for the relevant pun) then it's a no from me. It's the one reason I wouldn't buy a OnePlus from recyclers as the device doesn't come with the charger/cable and those cost an arm and a leg to replace. You wouldn't be far off the price of a new unit with accessories included at that stage.
