00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.440
This is the closest you guys are ever going to get to the real unboxing

00:00:04.360 --> 00:00:10.520
experience for me because I know

00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:12.760
basically nothing about the device

00:00:10.520 --> 00:00:19.200
that's inside here other than that it is the one plus eight pro and I'm actually

00:00:17.240 --> 00:00:23.760
pretty jazzed this time around. I was a little upset with one plus last time

00:00:21.880 --> 00:00:28.240
when they only launched the one plus seven and not the one plus seven pro in

00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:34.280
my region. Here I've got a couple of options for bumper cases. This guy right

00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:38.720
here is equipped with a Snapdragon 865

00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:41.080
SOC with eight to 12 gigs of LPDDR5

00:00:38.720 --> 00:00:46.400
memory. So I'm expecting this to be snappier than any one plus device that

00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:48.000
we have ever seen before and more

00:00:46.400 --> 00:00:53.400
importantly it's got a 120

00:00:50.360 --> 00:00:54.920
hertz display along with a 4510 milliamp

00:00:53.400 --> 00:00:58.920
hour battery. Now when I say I don't know anything about it, I don't mean that I don't know

00:00:57.400 --> 00:01:03.920
what the specs are supposed to be. I know that it's got quad cameras, AMOLED

00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:07.800
display, but what I didn't know was what it was going to look like. I hadn't paid

00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:13.160
attention to any of the leaks for this thing and man

00:01:09.560 --> 00:01:15.080
every time these guys just do such a

00:01:13.160 --> 00:01:19.120
great job of the looks of their phones, don't they ladies and gentlemen? I also

00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:23.920
didn't know that it was not going to have their pop-up selfie camera. I have

00:01:21.960 --> 00:01:27.960
to confess I am a little bit disappointed to see the whole punch

00:01:26.240 --> 00:01:32.080
display up there. So we've got our volume rocker over on the left hand side

00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:37.200
here. SIM tray on the bottom along with a type C port that supports their warp

00:01:34.360 --> 00:01:41.480
30T charging which gives you I think it's about 26 minutes half of your

00:01:39.880 --> 00:01:47.240
battery life. Got a speaker grill down there. The four cameras I mentioned before with

00:01:44.360 --> 00:01:50.160
quite a pronounced camera bump. On the top you got nothing so there's no

00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:55.440
headphone jack. We've got their three-way switch right here. Ring,

00:01:52.720 --> 00:01:59.480
vibrate, and silent super nice to have. My son actually rocks a one plus phone

00:01:57.240 --> 00:02:02.560
as his daily driver. He uses this all the time because he takes it to school

00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:06.080
and this is a lot easier than trying to fumble around with the buttons. And then

00:02:04.720 --> 00:02:11.920
finally you got your lock button over here. Let's go ahead and get this puppy set up and have a look at what else is

00:02:08.840 --> 00:02:11.920
included in the box.

00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:17.800
Got a nice little clear bumper case. That'll take care of your camera bump

00:02:15.480 --> 00:02:24.160
for you I guess. One of one plus's classic white and red charging cables.

00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:28.400
And another one plus staple is an included warp charger. One of the most

00:02:26.560 --> 00:02:32.640
exciting things about the one plus eight pro though is not the phone itself. So

00:02:30.640 --> 00:02:36.600
this is an accessory that's not included in the box but that you can get and this

00:02:34.920 --> 00:02:42.760
is the one plus warp charge 30 wireless charger. Their

00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:49.720
high-speed charging is coming to wireless for the first time. This puppy

00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:51.800
can handle up to 30 watts giving you I

00:02:49.720 --> 00:02:57.760
think it's half of your battery life in about 30 minutes.

00:02:53.960 --> 00:03:00.360
Is that a cooling vent back there?

00:02:57.760 --> 00:03:03.920
I would say that I don't know that may actually be possible. Yeah, it does

00:03:01.760 --> 00:03:07.160
appear that they have got a vent back here cuz that would kind of solve the

00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:09.760
problem, wouldn't it? If you just put a cooling fan in your wireless charger.

00:03:08.880 --> 00:03:15.600
That takes away a lot of my concerns about wireless charging. Feels great in the

00:03:13.240 --> 00:03:19.040
hand. Reminds me a lot of the Galaxy S8 series. I think some people are going to

00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:22.400
be disappointed to see such a significant curve to the front glass

00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:28.200
here. It's the kind of thing that I could easily switch back to and it wouldn't bother me in the slightest.

00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:31.880
Making a return is one plus's super fast in-screen fingerprint sensor. At least

00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:36.880
I'm expecting it to be fast cuz that's kind of their jam. So dynamic wallpapers

00:03:34.320 --> 00:03:41.560
are included with the Android 10 that ships with the one plus eight pro. They

00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:47.000
went straight to 120 hertz. In fact, they've completely skipped 90. It's

00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:50.560
going to be 60 or 120. I will say there's a sort of point of

00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:54.280
diminishing returns once you start to increase refresh rate but what is really

00:03:52.760 --> 00:03:59.360
cool about this one is that they're allowing you to run 120 hertz with QHD

00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:03.480
plus resolution. That's something Samsung does not allow on the S20 Ultra.

00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:10.120
The best guess I have for that would be because they're not confident in the battery life of the device running at

00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:13.120
the full 120 hertz at full res. Full res

00:04:10.120 --> 00:04:13.120
120 hertz.

00:04:13.600 --> 00:04:18.760
And that is butter smooth. It's the kind of thing you get Unfortunately I can't

00:04:16.880 --> 00:04:22.800
easily show you guys on camera but it really is something else. Aside from the

00:04:20.880 --> 00:04:27.920
high refresh rate of the display, it's supposed to be their most color accurate

00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:29.240
display yet with HDR10 plus support. So

00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:34.120
I'm expecting the movie watching experience on this phone to be out of

00:04:31.920 --> 00:04:39.440
this world. Comes preloaded with Netflix so they expect people to go ahead and

00:04:36.880 --> 00:04:42.440
get right on that apparently. HDR is working immediately which is really nice

00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:46.560
to see. All right, expectations met and they've

00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:49.280
got the correct behavior for the display notch here so they're not just kind of

00:04:47.960 --> 00:04:53.320
sticking it through the image that I'm trying to look at. One of the other big

00:04:51.960 --> 00:04:56.920
technologies they're pushing on this phone is like a frame interpolation

00:04:55.280 --> 00:05:00.560
technology that's supposed to make sports better to watch. So pretty

00:04:58.440 --> 00:05:04.080
similar to what you see on full size TVs. This is a pretty good experience if

00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:07.880
you're trying to be outside watching HDR content on a phone. I'm going to play

00:05:05.840 --> 00:05:13.960
around with the camera a little bit. Wow, it is it is

00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:16.560
pumping those reds. Okay, it looks like

00:05:13.960 --> 00:05:20.000
after processing the image it toned things down a little bit. Video is

00:05:18.280 --> 00:05:24.160
somewhere where Android phones tend to struggle in general. Interesting there's

00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:28.760
support for up to 4K 60 FPS but it actually chooses 4K 30 as the default

00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:33.040
video recording resolution. My initial camera impressions are pretty good.

00:05:30.280 --> 00:05:38.000
They're not oversaturating things so in sort of one plus fashion what you see is

00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:44.280
pretty much what you get. Stabilization on that 3X optical zoom actually looks

00:05:40.840 --> 00:05:46.400
pretty good. Ultra wide is definitely

00:05:44.280 --> 00:05:50.360
noticeably not as nice of a sensor as the others. General phone snappiness as

00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:53.680
you would expect from a one plus device is awesome.

00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:57.360
This 100

00:05:55.440 --> 00:06:01.200
of their They're a little harsh sounding at full volume but they're really loud.

00:05:59.440 --> 00:06:05.440
Wow. sound system that you guys have ever

00:06:03.320 --> 00:06:11.800
seen. These things have got everything. louder than me talking loud at the

00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:11.800
camera trying to project.

00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:19.400
And this has been fun but I think that's about it for the first impressions guys.

00:06:17.080 --> 00:06:22.400
It's looking pretty promising. The only thing holding me back at this point and

00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:27.080
I know I sound like a broken record is the headphone jack. Other than that I mean compared to Samsung's flagships

00:06:25.640 --> 00:06:31.880
which will have like whole punch displays now too. I had really hoped

00:06:29.320 --> 00:06:34.280
that there wouldn't be a whole punch but it's not like they have a disadvantage

00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:38.200
compared to anything else that I would consider to be usable and unlike a lot

00:06:36.400 --> 00:06:42.000
of the other brands out there, I know people say Huawei's cameras are great.

00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:46.400
That has not been my experience. I do like one plus's approach to their

00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:49.280
processing so it's a contender. It's a contender.

00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:55.440
Make sure you subscribe to a ShortCircuit. Contender for your you know

00:06:51.520 --> 00:06:55.440
technology video needs.
