The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

The phone that took the inveterate apple fan to a strange camp. For that kind of money at the time of November 2022, you can buy a gray xr or at least a gray op7 pro. But what can an apple company offer for 40 thousand? No wow effect. And here is a fingerprint scanner under the screen and a 2k 90Hz screen and a periscope camera that makes the screen truly frameless. Believe the geek - no matter what phone you switch from - this model will not disappoint you

Addition:
What's great about brands like this is that OnePlus, even after 8 months, a year, 2 years, is the same phone you took out of the box. He's just as good as ever.
Of the minuses, you can confirm false clicks and infrequent, but very annoying interface rendering bugs. At the same time, I never wanted to roll third-party firmware, and other launchers are not suitable for stock oxygenOS either. Occasionally I change the pack of icons and thank God they can be rolled without additional crutches. The camera still lacks stars from the sky, but the pictures are good with patience, good weather, or just luck. Xr subjectively shoots worse)
The front camera works flawlessly, although sometimes it is crap. Do not carry in the same pocket with cigarettes if you smoke!
The battery has gotten better. It is not clear how and why, but out of the box I had an hour less autonomy on average than now. Perhaps the matter is in the applications that I began / stopped using. It's still smooth and fast. You can make it a little "faster" in the developer menu by speeding up the animation (You need to change the rendering time from x1 to x0.5)
The other day 8 and 8 pro came out. Raised prices for a new lineup. Taking into account all the cirstances (the rate, the greed of resellers and the price itself), they will cost in 2022 even in a month 3-4 times 1.5 - 2 times more than now. So, gentlemen, take while they give. It seems to me an 8k less attractive option, because the hole from the camera and a dubious set of new features are not worth the difference of 200-300 dollars. 5G is good, only for 1+10)

Pros

In general, this is the fastest and most responsive device that I have ever held in my hands. iPhones and their optimization, of course, are great, but when the display is so juicy, bright and responsive, I want to send Tim Cook to the nearest Genius Bar to learn from the Chinese brothers how to make a real flagship device. Now point by point: 90Hz screen? Please! 2k resolution? There you are! Tweaking an extended color gamut? Get it! Don't want ugly camera bangs? Down with! HDR+? Here are your true blacks and dazzling whites! Processor 855 dragon. Possibly the best processor of 2022. There is a plus version, but the tongues say that this is just an overclocked version of the previous stone. The performance is more than enough. The new call of duty was installed in a minute and a half via 4g internet and launched in 20 seconds. I don’t even know how else to load this monster so that it sags. Games do not heat the phone even when charging! Thanks to liquid cooling The sound is very good. I've heard better speakers, but probably on tablets like the iPad Pro. Dolby atmos hammers normally! Stylish colors. I have a uni blue nebula. Seems to be the most successful. The girl is delighted with the almond, but as for me it gives off a little gypsy (and yes, I went with golden iPhones. ) Small chips like a well-calibrated vibration motor, gestures from the locked screen like on a motorola or a physical slider for the call profile switch (moreover, 3-position: call, vibration, mute. How do you like it - Cupertino? ) 30W fast charging has saved my multiple times. And most importantly, it's right in the box!

Cons

Huge. Is it true! 6.67 inches is not for everyone. People with tiny hands stay away! There is a movable selfie camera module. Who the hell knows what will happen to her in a year or two. Although they showed how it was opened and closed for 12 hours and a 20+ kg concrete block was hung on it, I have doubts that accidentally flying dust or tobacco crumbs will not ruin the mechanism. Angled screen. No, there are fans of such a solution, but there are so many minuses that I could publish a whole brochure! Fortunately, I'm not afraid for safety - I found a magnetic gl case on Ali. Looks promising. There are small quibbles to the firmware. On the other hand, I have been sitting on iPhones for 5 years, so maybe they are absolutely not justified. The battery barely lasts a day. It depends on the usage scenario, but here I am writing purely my impressions.
