OnePlus 7T Pro, 7 Pro Camera, Display And More

While we have seen the differences between the two OnePlus smartphones, let's take a look at the similarities from here. The OnePlus 7T Pro and 7 Pro come with Android 10 topped with OxygenOS 10. Well, the OnePlus 7 Pro received the update to the latest iteration of the OS a few days back, thereby making them on par in terms of software.

Both smartphones adorn a 6.67-inch QHD+ Fluid AMOLED display with a resolution of 3120 x 1440 pixels and an aspect ratio of 19.5:9. There is 3D Corning Gorilla Glass protection and 90Hz refresh rate as well. The other aspects include a USB Type-C port, NFC, an in-display fingerprint sensor, Dolby Atmos, dual stereo speakers, and Bluetooth 5.0.

When it comes to the camera department, both these OnePlus offerings have a pop-up camera module instead of a selfie camera sensor, thereby leaving a notch-less display. The selfie sensor within the pop-up module is a 16MP lens. Otherwise, both the OnePlus 7T Pro and OnePlus 7 Pro feature triple rear cameras stacked vertically with a 48MP Sony IMX586 primary sensor with f/1.6 aperture, a 16MP secondary ultra-wide-angle sensor with f/2.2 aperture and an 8MP telephoto lens with f/2.4 aperture.

Which One Should You Buy?

Personally, there is not much difference in terms of specifications between both these smartphones except for the processor and battery. While the Snapdragon 855 Plus SoC in the OnePlus 7T Pro is an advanced one, even the Snapdragon 855 is an efficient one and not many users will find a major difference between the two. And, there is faster Warp Charge 30T, which is interesting.

However, if you already own the OnePlus 7 Pro, then it is not advisable to get the OnePlus 7T Pro. But, if you are planning to upgrade to this year's OnePlus flagship, then you can consider buying the OnePlus 7T Pro as it comes with the latest features.
