Why spend more than 500 euros for a premium smartphone?
The OnePlus 8T achieves a real feat, namely to make accessible a technical sheet yet high-end. We come to wonder why we must continue to spend more than 500 or 600 euros for premium phones when such alternatives exist (we are talking about a smartphone that has managed to get a 9/10 in our columns).

The OnePlus 8T relies on a neat design, with rounded corners, thin borders and a pleasant shell to handle. Its 6,55-inch screen uses AMOLED technology and offers a definition of 2 x 400 pixels. The screen calibration is successful, both in terms of colorimetry, contrast and brightness. Above all, the panel benefits from a refresh rate of 1 Hz which makes navigation particularly fluid.

While the screen is perforated by a punch located at the top left for the selfie camera, the rest of the photographic dimension is provided by a quadruple sensor back module. This includes a 48-megapixel main camera, a 16-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensor, a 5-megapixel macro sensor and a 2-megapixel monochrome camera. The versatility of this module makes it possible to obtain superb shots, day or night.
Power to spare
The least we can say is that the technical sheet of the OnePlus 8T has something to impress. It has a powerful Snapdragon 865 processor, which makes it compatible with 5G, 8 GB of RAM, and 128 GB of storage. Whether it's to play gourmet games, watch streaming videos, or simply navigate between applications or the web, the OnePlus 8T keeps constant fluidity.

In terms of autonomy, the OnePlus 8T relies on a 4500 mAh battery. The endurance of the phone is excellent since it is able to last a day and a half of use before claiming the charger. Charging is done very quickly thanks to the compatibility with the 65 W fast charge.

Where high-end phones have the unfortunate tendency to exceed 800, 900 or even 1 euros, the OnePlus 000T offers a premium technical sheet below the 8 euros mark. It displays a price of 500 euros at AliExpress using the promo code AEJUNFR12.
