OnePlus 8
We really like the $700 OnePlus 8, which not only has 5G support—it offers a 90 Hz display and the same processor as the $900 OnePlus 8 Pro for nearly $200 less. The only glaring concession is that the OnePlus 8’s 5G support varies depending on where you buy it. Verizon has a different design to accommodate the antenna for the carrier’s mmWave 5G network. The unlocked version works fine on Big Red, but it’s not fully compatible with its 5G speeds. It also means cases aren’t interchangeable between models.
If you’re willing to splurge on the Pro, you get more camera lenses, a screen with a higher refresh rate, and goodies like wireless charging and reverse charging.
But one caveat: OnePlus is rumored to have a new flagship phone on the horizon, so you may want to wait to see what’s in store.
