1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,560
- You know what's really funny? - [David] Ultra stops. Ultra stops at nothing. - [David] Ultra stops.

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,730
- Ultra stopped (laughs). Today, we look at the latest and greatest from OnePlus.

3
00:00:07,730 --> 00:00:10,860
It's not actually the greatest per se because the Pro still exists,

4
00:00:10,860 --> 00:00:15,350
but it is, at least, the latest. All over the box is ultra.

5
00:00:15,350 --> 00:00:19,300
And we have no idea why. So this is actually the reviewers' packaging.

6
00:00:19,300 --> 00:00:22,530
It's not quite what you would get if you were to purchase this phone yourself.

7
00:00:22,530 --> 00:00:26,460
I don't know if they were trying to take a jab at Samsung, maybe.

8
00:00:26,460 --> 00:00:32,600
There's nothing else about this phone that they advertise as ultra. It's not the OnePlus 8T Ultra.

9
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,350
It's just the OnePlus 8T. Now this is pretty fancy packaging.

10
00:00:36,350 --> 00:00:40,065
It's like soft-touch everything, feels so nice.

11
00:00:40,065 --> 00:00:43,393
(laughs) Full disclosure. I did actually open this before.

12
00:00:44,810 --> 00:00:47,743
Ooh, reviewer's guide.

13
00:00:48,972 --> 00:00:52,010
Good think there's a knife right here. - [David] You're not allowed to use the knife, Jake.

14
00:00:52,010 --> 00:00:57,083
- [Jono] No knives. - [David] You have to use a pen. A pen? What are the odds, I can open this with a light bulb?

15
00:00:58,750 --> 00:01:02,110
Ah, I did it! - Ah, that works! - [Jake] Yes. Inside the phone.

16
00:01:02,110 --> 00:01:05,700
This is the OnePlus 8T. - [David] No, it's a book. - No, this is a book.

17
00:01:05,700 --> 00:01:10,490
I guess these are the important things about this phone. A, 120 hertz screen.

18
00:01:10,490 --> 00:01:13,610
B, warp charge 65. Video done.

19
00:01:13,610 --> 00:01:19,253
Oh man, this is just like, mm. OnePlus is really happy with themselves.

20
00:01:19,253 --> 00:01:22,500
♪ Cha ♪ Okay, so again, this is the reviewers' packaging.

21
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:26,450
So we do have a few things that you will not receive unless you, I guess, you buy it separately.

22
00:01:26,450 --> 00:01:30,200
They got their fancy warp-charge specific case.

23
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:34,230
Here, we have the sandstone bumper case in cyan.

24
00:01:34,230 --> 00:01:37,503
Ooh, it's actually, it feels nice. Let's get to the phone.

25
00:01:37,503 --> 00:01:43,285
That's what you people are here for, anyways. (groans) Wow, that's a big box for a smartphone.

26
00:01:43,285 --> 00:01:46,422
It's almost like a watch box.

27
00:01:46,422 --> 00:01:50,050
(box thuds) ♪ Ah ♪

28
00:01:50,050 --> 00:01:54,477
♪ Come on, slide faster ♪ (sighs) Oh, god dammit.

29
00:01:54,477 --> 00:01:57,810
(assistants laugh) More propaganda. Dang it, OnePlus.

30
00:01:57,810 --> 00:02:01,766
Got a quick-start guide. What is this? - [David] SIM card removal tool.

31
00:02:01,766 --> 00:02:05,460
- But what is under here? The OnePlus 8T is more than a phone. It's a challenge.

32
00:02:05,460 --> 00:02:08,870
I think we'll leave it at that. I don't know what this is. What's that SAR value?

33
00:02:08,870 --> 00:02:12,680
Apparently the SAR values are only collected by the FCC

34
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:17,720
to make sure that cell phones do not exceed the FCC's maximum permissible exposure levels.

35
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:22,050
So it's a highest SAR value? Safety information. There is nothing in here we need.

36
00:02:22,050 --> 00:02:26,053
Ooh, we got some stickers. Oh, yay. And here is the phone.

37
00:02:27,075 --> 00:02:30,370
♪ Ah ♪ Wow. Okay.

38
00:02:30,370 --> 00:02:33,730
So there's definitely some differences here, right off the bat. We'll get into those in a sec.

39
00:02:33,730 --> 00:02:36,920
What else is in the box here? You got the typical OnePlus cable.

40
00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:42,330
So this is actually a special cable, sort of. It's got to support what is in this box down here,

41
00:02:42,330 --> 00:02:47,010
the warp charge 65 brick. And this is really the important part of the OnePlus 8T,

42
00:02:47,010 --> 00:02:51,480
at least according to OnePlus. This charger supposedly can charge the OnePlus 8T

43
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:57,540
to 58% in just 15 minutes. And 100% in 39 minutes.

44
00:02:57,540 --> 00:03:01,970
If you really hate your battery, would not recommend using this all the time.

45
00:03:01,970 --> 00:03:06,410
10 volts at 6.5 amps, that's their 65-watt warp charging.

46
00:03:06,410 --> 00:03:10,670
That's a lot of both. (laughs) I would be concerned that this phone would get pretty,

47
00:03:10,670 --> 00:03:13,243
pretty freaking hot. Maybe we'll plug it in to see.

48
00:03:14,779 --> 00:03:19,440
OnePlus. But before we get into the phone, I need to tell you about our sponsor, Manscaped.

49
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:24,640
Manscaped is a brand dedicated to below-the-waist grooming and hygiene that's safe, simple, and effective.

50
00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:28,050
That means you can only expect the best from their products made from the best materials

51
00:03:28,050 --> 00:03:32,680
to give you the best grooming experience possible. And guess what? Their products aren't just for men.

52
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,770
Their Lawnmower 3.0 body trimmer's the perfect gift for a girlfriend or wife in your life.

53
00:03:36,770 --> 00:03:41,340
Go to a manscaped.com/circuit for 20% off and free international shipping on your order.

54
00:03:41,340 --> 00:03:45,730
So right off the bat, of course, the 120 hertz, buttery smooth.

55
00:03:45,730 --> 00:03:49,410
It's like its predecessor, the OnePlus 8. This is still a 6.5-inch OLED.

56
00:03:49,410 --> 00:03:52,970
We actually have a little bit lower screen-to-body ratio. I think, 'cause the side bezels

57
00:03:52,970 --> 00:03:56,500
are a little bit more pronounced. We have less of a top bezel this time.

58
00:03:56,500 --> 00:04:00,860
It feels more balanced. It looks like it's framed nicely because of the bezels.

59
00:04:00,860 --> 00:04:04,260
And we still have that same pinhole camera. For the 8T in either color.

60
00:04:04,260 --> 00:04:07,431
This is their aquamarine green. There's also lunar silver

61
00:04:07,431 --> 00:04:11,860
with 12 gigs of RAM and 256 gigs of storage. You're looking at 749 U.S.

62
00:04:11,860 --> 00:04:14,900
That's pretty pricey for a phone. Like this is, ah, but is it?

63
00:04:14,900 --> 00:04:18,230
I guess maybe not. David, like what's a? - [Jono] I think standards these days are like.

64
00:04:18,230 --> 00:04:22,630
That's pretty cheap, actually. For a flagship phone, I think, you're spending a thousand bucks, usually.

65
00:04:22,630 --> 00:04:27,200
So I guess it is under that. On the outside, aside from the screen, having slightly different bezel layout,

66
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,610
it's mostly the same on the front. We have the same buttons on the side. You've got the mute switch.

67
00:04:31,610 --> 00:04:37,640
You got your same power button and volume on the other side. The only big change we're going to see here is the cameras.

68
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,800
Now on previous OnePlus phones, you'd see the cameras sort of in the middle,

69
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:44,120
which it's kind of a dated look, but finally they've switched over

70
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,760
to a more modern status quo, left-justified camera.

71
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,440
There is some changes to the camera this time. We actually have laser auto focus.

72
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,610
As for the sensors in the camera, we're still using the same Sony 48-mega pixel main shooter.

73
00:04:55,610 --> 00:04:59,670
We have a 16-megapixel ultra wide, that's actually a few degrees wider, which is nice.

74
00:04:59,670 --> 00:05:04,790
For the macro lens, we've gone from two megapixels to five, and they've actually included a monochrome sensor,

75
00:05:04,790 --> 00:05:08,590
which I think is just OnePlus's nomenclature for depth sensor.

76
00:05:08,590 --> 00:05:12,240
In terms of feel, this phone like feels really nice in the hand.

77
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,823
It's weighted beautifully, maybe a little bit top bias, which is fine.

78
00:05:19,246 --> 00:05:24,380
Sh, nobody saw that. (laughs) One thing I didn't mention actually is the front camera.

79
00:05:24,380 --> 00:05:29,370
Ah. (shutter clicking)

80
00:05:29,370 --> 00:05:36,500
Hey, David, smile. We get our macro, and then ultra wide.

81
00:05:37,133 --> 00:05:40,830
I find that ultra wide camera's always look so weird.

82
00:05:40,830 --> 00:05:44,790
Yeah, the distortion fixing is never that great.

83
00:05:44,790 --> 00:05:48,160
Okay. Let's move on. Back to the internals of the phone, this time,

84
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,760
we have the same Snapdragon 865 processor, the same RAM layout.

85
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:55,650
You can either get 8 or 12 gigs. For storage, depending on region availability,

86
00:05:55,650 --> 00:06:00,240
you're looking at 128 or 256, although this time it's UFS 3.1 rather than 3.0,

87
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,810
so maybe that'd be a little bit faster. We of course have the warp charge 65

88
00:06:03,810 --> 00:06:06,870
that I mentioned earlier, and there's some changes to the battery

89
00:06:06,870 --> 00:06:10,780
to accommodate that sort of charging. So rather than a traditional single cell battery,

90
00:06:10,780 --> 00:06:14,490
like you'd see in most smartphones, this one actually has two discrete cells,

91
00:06:14,490 --> 00:06:20,270
and supposedly they can each handle 30 watts of charging at the same time, which is pretty impressive.

92
00:06:20,270 --> 00:06:24,705
Now to keep this thing from blowing up, unlike the Note 7, (coughs) Samsung,

93
00:06:24,705 --> 00:06:29,270
maybe that's a dead meme at this point, we should probably stop beating that corpse. (laughs)

94
00:06:29,270 --> 00:06:33,000
They've actually integrated 12 discrete temperature sensors throughout the phone.

95
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:37,830
I don't know how many temperature sensors a usual phone has. I'm guessing that's probably at least a couple.

96
00:06:37,830 --> 00:06:42,480
So maybe they've added a few more, but they say it should be good.

97
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,520
And with the new heat dissipation system that they've integrated,

98
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,570
supposedly it should stay cool even while you're using it and charging with warp charge 65.

99
00:06:49,570 --> 00:06:53,460
So I think I should actually plug it in and try that. ♪ Ah, cha ♪

100
00:06:53,460 --> 00:06:56,859
Hey at 69%, what? - [Jono] Nice, nice.

101
00:06:56,859 --> 00:07:00,742
- Oh, damn it. It's 70 already. Wow. That's fast. (laughs)

102
00:07:00,742 --> 00:07:05,020
I wonder if we can watch this go up again? (video scrubbing)

103
00:07:05,020 --> 00:07:08,063
Ah, 71! Wow, look at that! That's so crazy.

104
00:07:08,063 --> 00:07:12,060
This battery will not last very long if you keep using this. (laughs)

105
00:07:12,060 --> 00:07:13,953
Let's try the fingerprint sensor here.

106
00:07:15,300 --> 00:07:16,500
Oh, that's pretty quick.

107
00:07:18,730 --> 00:07:21,463
- It's really hard. - It's so similar.

108
00:07:22,429 --> 00:07:25,440
I'm going to say maybe the OnePlus one a little bit,

109
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,289
but when you're getting this fast anyways, like it doesn't even matter.

110
00:07:29,289 --> 00:07:34,930
- [Jono] At a fraction of the cost. - Yeah, a fraction of the cost. It's like probably 40% cheaper than that phone.

111
00:07:34,930 --> 00:07:40,890
Now there's one thing I wanted to check inside the settings here. Ah-ha, this is the first OnePlus phone

112
00:07:40,890 --> 00:07:45,180
to have an always-on ambient display. This is pretty slow to the party. (laughs)

113
00:07:45,180 --> 00:07:49,750
This feature will be disabled below 5%. Okay. I locked the phone.

114
00:07:49,750 --> 00:07:53,890
Look at that. One thing we didn't mention is like other OnePlus phones,

115
00:07:53,890 --> 00:07:57,520
same with the OnePlus 8 and the OnePlus 8 Pro, there's no expandable storage,

116
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:01,580
but I think if you're getting the 256, that's probably plenty for most people.

117
00:08:01,580 --> 00:08:04,950
If you're a power user, you're probably going for a more expensive phone anyways.

118
00:08:04,950 --> 00:08:08,180
So I guess leave that up to you guys. We're going to plug the phone back in

119
00:08:08,180 --> 00:08:13,570
just to see if it actually gets hot. 'Cause we wanted to try that. We've got our warp charge going, 76%.

120
00:08:13,570 --> 00:08:18,170
For speakers, it looks like we do have an earpiece speaker here. Hopefully that works as stereo.

121
00:08:18,170 --> 00:08:23,165
And then on the bottom, it's not front facing, but it's downward firing, and hopefully they work together.

122
00:08:23,165 --> 00:08:26,842
- [Linus] And the brand new Xbox Series X. Yes, my friends.

123
00:08:26,842 --> 00:08:31,550
- Yep. Okay, so it's definitely using both speakers for stereo audio.

124
00:08:31,550 --> 00:08:36,240
Sounds kind of tangy. I mean we are listening to Linus's voice, so...

125
00:08:37,357 --> 00:08:39,940
(upbeat music)

126
00:08:50,804 --> 00:08:54,350
Mm. Ah, it's hard to say. For the price difference here,

127
00:08:54,350 --> 00:08:58,210
I think they're both pretty good (laughs). You're not going to be stressing

128
00:08:58,210 --> 00:09:03,790
about the speakers on this phone. They're pretty good. So we've been warped charging for five minutes,

129
00:09:03,790 --> 00:09:07,030
probably, at least, now. It doesn't even feel warm at all.

130
00:09:07,030 --> 00:09:10,830
If you told me this was charging, like you handed me two phones, and one was charging and one was not,

131
00:09:10,830 --> 00:09:13,940
and told me to pick which one it was, I probably wouldn't be able to tell you.

132
00:09:13,940 --> 00:09:17,660
I bet you if I plugged the Note 20 Ultra in right now, it would get hot, like immediately.

133
00:09:17,660 --> 00:09:21,580
Okay. Let's leave it for a minute, two, a minute or two here and see what happens.

134
00:09:23,150 --> 00:09:26,657
We'll have to for a few more minutes. It's now at 88%.

135
00:09:26,657 --> 00:09:30,710
It's like ice cold, dude. If I told you this phone was charging at 65 watts,

136
00:09:30,710 --> 00:09:34,386
would you believe me? - No, it's not charging. It's off. - It's literally (laughs).

137
00:09:34,386 --> 00:09:37,825
- [David] It just feels like it's doing its thing. - It's not doing anything. What do you mean?

138
00:09:37,825 --> 00:09:41,100
It's like cold. Like it's actually- - [David] It's not cold, but it's-

139
00:09:41,100 --> 00:09:45,205
- I mean, the ambient temperature in here is like 18 degrees or whatever, it.

140
00:09:45,205 --> 00:09:48,840
- [Jono] Your hand will probably warm it up faster. - Well, that's why I tried to leave it for a bit.

141
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,840
Is it starting to feel warm? And I was pretty sure it was my hand.

142
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:57,630
That's crazy. So I guess if charging, while staying completely ambient temperature

143
00:09:57,630 --> 00:10:01,803
is on your list of things for a phone, maybe the OnePlus 8T is for you.

144
00:10:01,803 --> 00:10:05,370
You're probably gonna want to wait for the next generation.

145
00:10:05,370 --> 00:10:09,180
I always feel like the T series devices from OnePlus are kind of a tease.

146
00:10:09,180 --> 00:10:13,870
You never get the same software support as the previous gen. Like they're going to treat this like a OnePlus 8

147
00:10:13,870 --> 00:10:19,110
