Since its launch, OnePlus has been one one of the most loved companies among Android users. Its rapid growth was driven by fan input and the company produce phones its fans wanted to buy.

It feels like The OnePlus 7 Pro is first device from the company that has entered the premium space. It’s faster, bigger and more expensive than any pervious OnePlus device. The company clearly listened to fan input around the design of this phone, but it also added features made to directly compete with Samsung and Huawei — and it shows in the price.

Do the new features justify the higher cost, and will fans stick with the company now that it is trying to compete more directly with the big dogs?

OnePlus 7 Pro review:

The OnePlus 7 Pro is the fastest, biggest, and most expensive device the company is selling. Its edge-to-edge display with the notch for a mechanical pop-up selfie camera, and the new high-resolution 90Hz display looks and feels amazing. In adding these features, however, the 7 Pro trades a key benefit for which the company has traditionally been known: battery life.

OnePlus devices have typically targeted customers who want the best experience at the lowest price. The latest from OnePlus still undercuts the competition in raw price-to-performance, but the 7 Pro doesn’t quite offer all the bells and whistles found in devices like the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus or the Huawei P30 Pro.

OnePlus is also launching a standard OnePlus 7, albeit not in the U.S., and that might be a better option for people who prioritize battery life over the display and triple-camera array. The standard model is substantially cheaper than the OnePlus 7 Pro, so if you liked the form factor of the OnePlus 6T you’ll find updated specs at a reasonable price.
