There's no wireless charging available
There is no IP rating on the unlocked version
No option for Wi-Fi calling if you are an AT&T customer (but that's not OnePlus's fault)
No official IP rating
Fourth camera feels unnecessary
No IP-rating for unlocked models
The T-Mobile version is IP rated
But the unlocked version doesn't claim to be. Odds are it's the same
But without certification we can't say
Even though cheaper phones like the S20 FE have an explicit IP rating
Oxygen OS 11 feels like a One UI knockof
No IP rating for dust/water resistance
Punch hole seems like less of a problem with a flat display
No 3.5mm headphone jack
5G limited to N41
N78
N79 (no mmWave)
Pre-installed screen protector is sticky and not worth keeping on
Dual speakers sound just okay
Better than most for sure but not as good as some flagships
Cameras are great but some users may look to more expensive flagships for slightly better cameras
Middling camera performance
Summary
OnePlus' latest phone is basically the OnePlus 8 Pro's top-notch screen refresh rate and battery stuffed into a smaller body. Then there's the awesome 39-minute fast charging tech

The OnePlus 8T is yet another top-spec, very well-priced, excellent phone from the Chinese smartphone brand.It has a great 120Hz screen, good build, attractive design, the very best of performance, good battery life, 5G, dual-sim and a good set of cameras...
Brilliant display - we like that it's flat,Super-fast charging,Speedy and smooth performance,Oxygen OS 11 is a refreshing take on Android
Cameras could still improve,No wireless charging,No official IP rating for dust/water resistance
The OnePlus 8T has more in common with the OnePlus Nord than it does the OnePlus 8 series with which it shares its name, with a flat screen, rectangular camera protrusion, and glossy green glass rear.But that's not really important. What's important is th...
Ignore the price and the OnePlus 8T doesn't feel like a desperately exciting upgrade from the 8 in some respects. But once you realise the price has dropped the phone begins to look much more compelling.120Hz and 65W charging are welcome upgrades, even if...
Lovely display, Seriously fast charging, A performance champion, Already on Android 11,
No IP rating, No wireless charging, Fairly useless secondary cameras,
If you want pure performance, an excellent screen and some of the fastest charging around then the OnePlus 8T should be near the top of your list. The lower than usual for a flagship price makes it an even more tempting prospect.ProsLovely displaySeriousl...
I've used the phone as my main handset for a week or two now. The green model I have is cheaper than the OnePlus 8 Pro but has the same CPU, the same memory, the same storage and a smaller screen which I actually found more suitable. Sure, there's no wire...

Superb flat 120Hz screen, Fast performance, Ridiculously fast charging
Slightly expensive, Camera nothing special, Still no wireless charging
The OnePlus 8T makes only incremental improvements over the OnePlus 8, but it remains a highly compelling upper-mid-range 5G pick - especially at its new lower price. We particularly appreciate having the Pro's 120Hz display technology at a more accessibl...

Long-lasting battery, Beautiful display, Great software
No wireless charging, Lacklustre design, No telephoto camera
The OnePlus 8T doesn't change the game – particularly if you bought OnePlus 8 – but it is another great handset from the brand, with a stunning display, a unique look, good battery life and a camera that impresses. If you're looking for a handset that's a...

Plenty of power and a sensible enough price, Improved low-light photography and video, Crowd-pleasing size, Super-fast charging
Disappointing battery life in 120Hz mode, Less fancy design than older OnePlus 8
Already have a OnePlus 8? There's no need to upgrade to the OnePlus 8T. It's a similar phone. The back has been fiddled with a little, the macro camera is less useless than it was, and the B&W takes on the job of “redundant camera sensor” position that se...
