After dozens of leaks, the price of the OnePlus 8 series leaked today through a European retailer and, well, it’s much higher. For a brand that has always relied on competitive pricing, raising prices considerably is a big problem. So what price would you pay for a OnePlus 8 Pro?
When it first arrived, OnePlus delivered the OnePlus One for just $ 349 at a time when other flagships cost $ 600 or more. Since then, prices have gone up everywhere, not just from OnePlus. Right now, going out to buy Samsung’s latest flagship will cost you at least $ 999 where a OnePlus 7T costs $ 599 and the OnePlus 7 Pro originally sold for $ 669. OnePlus clearly had a reason to consider looking at those numbers.
Now, however, OnePlus is gearing up for its biggest price jump to date. According to the latest leak, the OnePlus 8 can start at € 719 with the OnePlus 8 Pro priced at € 919. It’s a jump of nearly € 200 year-over-year and more than € 100 compared to the “7T” series. That’s a lot of money!
What do you get for that money? WinFuture It recently released a full breakdown of the OnePlus 8 specs, but here’s the core: OnePlus 8 offers a Snapdragon 865 paired with 8GB or 12GB of RAM, 128GB or 256GB of storage, a 6.55-inch AMOLED FHD + 90Hz display, and support for 5G. In the camera department, the OnePlus 8 also offers a 48MP, 16MP ultra-wide primary camera and a 2MP macro camera as well. It also has a 4,300 mAh battery with a 30W Warp charge.
The OnePlus 8 Pro has the same processor and memory allocations, but adds a larger 6.78-inch QHD + 120Hz display, an IP68 rating for water / dust resistance, and the battery is larger at 4,510 mAh. That battery can also be charged at 30W with wireless and wired charging. The cameras also get an upgrade with a 48MP main camera, 48MP ultra wide angle, 8MP telephoto (3x zoom) and a 5MP “color filter”.
So with all of that in mind these phones will clearly be more expensive compared to previous models. It would be quite ridiculous to think otherwise, especially considering the cost of the Snapdragon 865 alone.
Still, the initial price reactions that have leaked so far haven’t been very approving. In the survey below, we are curious, what is the highest price you would pay for OnePlus 8 Pro? Personally, I think $ 799 or even $ 849 would be a good price, but the € 919 price that leaked implies that OnePlus is a little higher than that. Let us know in the comments, too, what you think about OnePlus pricing.
