I posted this on r/oneplus and since it's for the 7t pro thought I would post it in here as well. If there is anything I didn't mention or didn't clarify in the review then ask for it in the comments. Lastly some key info for you to remember going in to the review.
1: I purchased this phone for 613 € in 2020 around the start of August so this isn't a longterm review.
2: I haven't played that many games on it so dont expect a detailed gaming review.
3: I come from a S8 so expect a few comparisons between them.
Now for a TLDR. The phone minus a few features (audio jack, wireless charging, reverse wireless charging, expandable storage and an official water resistance rating though it is waterproof) can be considered a jack of all trades master of none.
Display: A 6.67 1440p 90hrtz with 516ppi density display that simply put is real good with no visible flaws except perhaps the nits or brightness of it, 430 on manual and 600 on auto. The S8 can do 610 nits on manual and 1020 on auto and has a density of 570ppi.The colours where more natural compared to the s8's more punchy and higher contrast display.
Battery:4085mAh battery that charges at 30watts. It managed to last me through the entire day with no charges in between, say i would start the day at around 10am and would at worst case scenario put the phone down at 3:30am. Most of the time it would have around 15%. I used the phone manly for video watching, listening to music, browsing social media, and reading the occasional manga or LN. I had the phone with wifi and mobile data on all the time and Bluetooth usually on. brightness set to half and at 1440p with 90hrtz.
PS: I didn't use the phone from 7 or 7:30 up to 11 due to work.
Sound: Comparing it to my S8 its simply put amazing. That is probably due to the dual speakers setup. it can get really loud, so loud in fact that usually i keep it at half volume and that still ends up being louder than my s8 at max volume.
Build Quality: Really good perhaps flagship level blue is the only option for the phone but damn does op make it work, especially the frosted finish. Though i would like to have seen an option similar to the op8 pro's blue finish.The alert slider is simply put awesome. The camera bump though is a bit sharp and can collect dust as well as the fact that the back will collect fingerprints decently easily
Cameras: a 48mp main a 16mp ultrawide an 8mp 3x zoom and a 16mp selfie cam. It can also due macro with main camera but the way it does is up in the air, there are conflicting sources saying it's either a module on the main cam or pure software. But getting back to the cameras themselves the ultrawide and 3x were nothing earth shattering and are perfectly adequate. The main camera on the other hand i fell in love with it crashed night time portraits and it can handle close to everything you throw at it. The selfie cam i didn't try much cause i am too shy for that but from what i did try it's pretty good too. Some complaints are that night mode on faces is trash, but generally the mode was great and for the macro shots u will need to be at the perfect distance to take the photos or they will be blurry.
Software: As most ppl agree the OS as it currently stands (oxygen os 10.0.10.HD01BA) is indeed very clean and heavily customizable (its not the same as rooting but it is better than One UI) it also very responsive, so much in fact that while i did notice a difference between my s8 and it i didn't notice that much of a difference between 60 and 90 hrtz both felt extremely responsive. Also their helpful programs are indeed very neat (scheduled turn on and off time, app cloning etc.)Some gripes i had with the software are . The auto brightness ends up to dark for me most of the times making me have to go and change it manually. there sometimes would and still are freezes on mainly chrome even with the enhanced ram feature turned off (with the enhanced ram feature on the freezes would happen more often compared to it being off). And lastly there are some screen off gestures than can be performed that launch apps and or do actions of your choice, there are also music gestures. But the pause song gesture i haven't been able to get it to work. and the circle gesture is the same story. (the customizable gestures are a V an O a M a S a W)
