1. The display

This is the first time we see a OnePlus device with more than a 1080p FHD+ display. Don't get me wrong the 1080p on the 6T display is formidable at 402ppi.

With that said the new OnePlus 7 pro has the NEW fluid amoled display which is now for the first time 1440x3120 which has 516ppi.

Let's be honest about this. It's just better and it's all screen...no notch. If that wasn't enough to convince you. This OLED panel has a refresh rate of 90hz. Which it's much faster & smoother than the OP6...and it is bigger at 6.67"

A bigger screen calls for a bigger battery. The OnePlus 6T had a 3700mah cell and now the Oneplus has a huge 4000mah battery.

2. The Cameras

So one of the areas I wish my OnePlus 6T was a little better at is this area. Bear in mind I've been spoilt a bit because I've been testing devices like the Sony XZ3, Google Pixel 3, Mate 20 and View 20.

So the 6T has this dual layout with two 16MP cameras & 16MP selfie cam. Now I'm not trying to knock its performance. In fact, a lot of my Instagram pics are shot on the Ones 6T, and a lot of people seem to like them.

However now on the OnePlus 7pro, there has been another giant leap forward in camera tech.

The OnePlus 7 has triple cameras with the primary being the Sony IMX 48MP half-inch sensor. This is great for many reasons. One of them being that the OP7 can take in more light than the 6T. So you will get much better low light performance. Not only that, but you will also get far more detail in each shot thanks to its 4 in 1 pixel binning software.

Combine that with the 16MP ultrawide camera. For those time you're trying to take a group photo...and you're backing up... you're backing up and you fall off a cliff. No need for that because it can shoot 118degrees...to put that into perspective the human eye can see roughly 120degrees.

Say cheese.

Let's not forget the OnePlus 7's third eye 8MP telephoto. The OnePlus 6T had a digital zoom but that's never going to be as good as optical.

So for you passionate photography phenoms. The camera improvements are a very good reason to upgrade.

3. Sound

So look here see. Sound and Vision go hand in hand & now the OnePlus 7 pro has one of the most beautiful screens in the Flagship game.

and I'm not afraid to say one of the weaknesses in all previous OnePlus devices was lack of stereo speakers. This is no longer a weakness.

If you're the type of person who likes to consume a lot of video content on your phone. Then the addition of stereo speakers...I think is a good reason to upgrade. If you like to use headphones a lot then maybe this isn't that exciting for you...but for me it's kind of a big deal.

4. Performance

The 6T really was and still is an incredibly fast phone. Time is a really valuable commodity, and nobody can really give you your time back.

But if you can save it...well that's a good thing. The 6T had the Qualcomm 845 and up to 10GB of ram, which is still faster than a lot of phones today.

The Oneplus 7 pro now has the epic Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 which is 3 times faster than the 845 and 2 times faster than Apples current flagship A12 bionic. How much are those phones again?

Throw in up to 12GB of ram and you truly have a speed demon of a device right there at your fingertips.

The improvements delivered by the 855 isn't just speed. You're going to see loads more improvements in AI, connectivity and loads more stuff.

Also, the data read/write speeds have been increased that's thanks to the all-new UFS 3.0 storage which is 79% faster than what we see on the OnePlus 6T.

Also, the modem has been upgraded from the 6T which was a Cat 16 the OP7 pro now has a Cat 18 modem. So faster internet speeds which are all important for the number 5 reason to upgrade.

5. Gaming

So a 9Hz panel the world's most powerful mobile platform the Snapdragon 855. Inside the 855 resides the Adreno 640 GPU. The 6T had the Adreno 630 GPU which has 20% slower than the 640GPU...again can you give me my time back.

So I could stop there and this is an amazing gaming phone. But there is more.

OnePlus have rebranded and improved upon the gaming mode that was present in the OnePlus 6T. Enter Fnatic mode! Fnatic being a well-known eSports organization.

To put it simply the OnePlus will focus all forward thrusters on your gameplay using a process regulator. It will also strip back all unnecessary distractions & and apply network enhancements for as low latency gaming as possible.

So you thought that was it didn't you. There are a couple more really awesome upgrades in the OnePlus 7 that are really going to make a huge difference to gaming experiences.

When your gaming your phone is under a lot of pressure, your Processor starts to heat up, the performance begins to throttle to compensate for this. Your hands are also warming the device as well. Here's the solution

Beneath the surface of the Oneplus 7 is a 10 layer liquid cooling system. Strategically placed to keep your device cool under pressure. As for you the gamer...lets just hope you're not one of those people who like to rage quit

Also, there's a new more powerful & accurate haptic feedback system. I which I heard is one of the best in the smartphone game.

That's my top 5 reasons for upgrading. I didn't mention the new 30watt Warp charging which is mind-blowing for a reason. That's because the OnePlus 6T's dash is still pretty epic. Warp charge is better though.

That's it I'll see you guys in the next one & and remember you can always make more money but... nobody can give you your time back, but the speed of the Oneplus 7 pro you can save it.
