Author’s Opinion

The OnePlus 7 is a mid-range premium smartphone that comes with an amazing screen, beefed up specs and superb cameras. Gaming and multitasking is a breeze on this phone, so is media consumption with that beautiful screen and stereo speakers. Cameras take great photos and battery easily lasts long with warp refilling it quickly.

Talking about the competition in this price range of around 33K, the real competitors of this smartphone are Google Pixel 3a, Honor View 20 and OnePlus 6T. So, the competition in this price range is quite low.

If compared with the competition, the smartphone is offering different features like Snapdragon 855 SoC, 48MP dual camera setup, stereo speakers, in-display fingerprint sensor and a few minor software upgrades. The smartphone is giving tough competition to all smartphone in this price range. However, compared to Pixel 3a, the camera on OnePlus 7 is a bit on the lower side but it doesn’t mean the camera is bad.

The OnePlus is known for its value for money devices with a stellar performance and with this pricing the company did a great job. The OnePlus 7 can be said as a minor upgrade of OnePlus 6T with better pricing this time. Everything is so hyped about the OnePlus 7 Pro and in that hype, the regular OnePlus 7 being a great smartphone is now underrated.

Overall, We recommend OnePlus 7 to buy in this price range. However, at the time of writing this article, our first recommendation will be OnePlus 6T (Flash Review).

Note: These are my initial impressions of the smartphone. For Full Flash Review, Stay tuned with our Instagram Page.
