OnePlus 8 phones to cost less than $1,000, exec confirms

01 April 2020
The question of pricing came up in official discussions with OnePlus CEO.

Sort by:

Yes, it will be expensive, cause oneplus 7 pro sold so well, they will do this overpriced hike again on 8 pro
And for noob, do not compare this with xiaomi, xiaomi is nowhere near oneplus, those who ever use oneplus know it exactly

    Modest Mind, 01 Apr 2020What are you talking about. Xiaomi K30 Pro is in every depa... moreRedmi has GG5, OP must be 6 at least on screen.
    1080p x QHD
    60Hz x 120Hz
    Base 6GB DDR4x + ufs3.0 x base 8GB ddr5 + ufs3.0 or 3.1
    Midrange isocell GW1 x flagship imx689
    13MP 1/3" ultra wide x 48MP 1/2" ultra wide
    5MP 1/5" 50 mm x 8MP 1/4" 80mm
    Mono speaker x stereo speaker
    No IP x IP68
    Usb 2.0 x usb 3.1 or 3.2
    No 4K HDR video x 4K HDR
    8K video x probably no 8K.
    No OIS x OIS

    This sounds very different to me. Believe me, all this costs huge money.

        Exactly three years ago I bought a brand new Oneplus 3T(128GB) For $360(300euro back then) online...this new one will be three times that..wow,wtf..

                    Remember the days when the One Plus was a flagship killer?

                      I always said when chinese brands like Xioami, OP, oppo and vivo started to put similar stuff used by other brands, the devices would cost as much as other charge.

                      Some ppl here did not believe. And prices would be even higher if these phones were not full of components made in China, which keeps them from import taxes and have cheaper manufacturing.

                        It will be less than 1000 dollars but no less than 950 dollars.

                            Lol looks like s20 isn't actaully expensive this year since chinese companies release their flagships at ~1k$ aswell (which, people were hoping, would be less expensive)

                              Costing less than $1000 is not an achievement. You can get a ton of better phones for OnePlus prices (Galaxy S10, for example).
