Editorial report

OnePlus 8 5G UW (Verizon) technical sheet

The OnePlus 8 5G UW (Verizon) suits buyers looking for a well-rounded 5G phone, with one clear limitation: its 128 GB of storage cannot be expanded. The 6.55-inch AMOLED display has a 1080 × 2400 px resolution and a 90 Hz refresh rate. Its 402 ppi is better than that of most phones of its time, while the 88.7% screen-to-body ratio is among the best. The phone also has an IP68 rating.

A Qualcomm Snapdragon 865, 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage underpin hardware that is among the best of its time. The 48 MP main camera has higher resolution than most phones from the period, with optical image stabilization and 4K recording at 60 fps. A 16 MP ultra-wide camera adds a broader framing option, alongside a 2 MP macro camera. Overall, the camera is better than most phones of its time.

The 4300 mAh battery is slightly above average in capacity, and 30 W charging is faster than on most phones of the period. Connectivity is also better than most: the phone supports 5G, NFC, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1 and USB 3.1. Android 10 and a single Nano-SIM slot round out the setup. With a NeoScore of 6.2, it is a compelling fit for buyers who value its display, connectivity and flexible camera options, and can live with fixed 128 GB storage.
