Final Verdict – OnePlus 7 or OnePlus 7 Pro ?
Considering the price point, the OnePlus 7 seems a better choice. It has the exact same hardware specs – latest processor, same RAM etc.Even the main 48MP camera sensor is the same as OnePlus 7 Pro. Moreover it doesn’t have the popup selfie camera and that ensures the face unlock is faster. Me being a person who takes a lot of groupfies, need a better selfie camera that gives me sharper pictures. (Precisely the reason why I want to upgrade my OnePlus 3T) If you are upgrading from older phones like OP3T, and if you’ve got the money, OnePlus 7 Pro would be a quantum leap. Else the OnePlus 7 will be a wise choice in my opinion. What are your thoughts on OnePlus 7 or OnePlus 7 Pro ? Which one would you buy ?
