Release Date and Availability

The OnePlus 7 Pro was officially released on May 14, 2019, and became available for purchase in Qatar shortly after. This flagship device marked a significant step for OnePlus, as it was their first attempt at a true premium smartphone, competing directly with high-end offerings from Samsung, Apple, and Huawei.

The phone’s availability in Qatar has been consistent since its launch, with various retailers and online stores offering the device in different configurations.

Design and Display

The OnePlus 7 Pro boasts a sleek and modern design that stands out in the crowded smartphone market. Its all-glass body, crafted from Corning Gorilla Glass 5, gives it a premium feel. The phone comes in three attractive colors: Nebula Blue, Mirror Gray, and Almond. One of the most striking features of the OnePlus 7 Pro is its notchless, bezel-less display.

The 6.67-inch Fluid AMOLED screen offers a truly immersive viewing experience with its 90Hz refresh rate, which was a game-changer at the time of its release. This high refresh rate ensures smoother scrolling and more responsive touch interactions, making everyday use a joy.

Camera System

Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the OnePlus 7 Pro’s versatile triple camera setup. The main 48-megapixel sensor, with its f/1.6 aperture, captures detailed and vibrant images in various lighting conditions. The 16-megapixel ultra-wide lens allows you to fit more into your frame, perfect for landscapes and group shots.

The 8-megapixel telephoto lens offers 3x optical zoom, enabling you to get closer to your subject without losing quality. For selfie lovers, the innovative pop-up 16-megapixel front camera not only ensures a full-screen display but also adds a fun element to taking self-portraits.

Performance and Battery

Under the hood, the OnePlus 7 Pro is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor, which was the flagship chip of its time. This, combined with up to 12GB of RAM, ensures smooth multitasking and excellent performance in demanding applications and games.

The UFS 3.0 storage technology provides faster read and write speeds, contributing to the phone’s snappy performance.

The 4000mAh battery offers all-day battery life for most users, and when you do need to charge, the Warp Charge 30 technology can get you from 0 to 50% in just 20 minutes.

Software and User Experience

OnePlus is known for its clean and user-friendly OxygenOS, and the 7 Pro is no exception. Based on Android 9 Pie at launch (upgradable to later versions), OxygenOS offers a near-stock Android experience with useful additions.

Features like Gaming Mode, Reading Mode, and customizable gesture controls enhance the user experience without cluttering the interface. The in-display fingerprint sensor is fast and reliable, adding to the phone’s futuristic feel.

Comparison with Other Models

When comparing the OnePlus 7 Pro to its successors and competitors, it’s important to consider its value proposition. The OnePlus 7T, released a few months after the 7 Pro, offers similar performance with a flat display and a slightly updated processor (Snapdragon 855+) at a lower price point. However, it lacks the premium feel of the curved display and the pop-up camera. The OnePlus 7T Pro, on the other hand, is very similar to the 7 Pro, with minor improvements in processor and charging speed.

In the same price range, phones like the Samsung Galaxy S10 and Huawei P30 Pro offer comparable specs and features. The Galaxy S10 boasts a more refined software experience and wireless charging, while the P30 Pro excels in camera performance, especially in low-light conditions. However, the OnePlus 7 Pro’s 90Hz display and clean OxygenOS give it a unique edge in terms of user experience.

Compared to more recent models like the OnePlus 8 Pro or Samsung Galaxy S20, the OnePlus 7 Pro may lack 5G capabilities and the latest processors. However, its lower price point and still-impressive specs make it a compelling option for those who don’t need the absolute latest technology.
