The OnePlus 7 Pro is launching this week for $670 and it packs a whole bunch of premium features including a big, bright, high-resolution display, a virtually bezel-free design, a triple-camera system, a pop-up selfie camera, and support for up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.0 storage.
So that’s the OnePlus 7 Pro. But adding the word Pro to the name suggests there’s a non-pro version, right?
There is… but the standard OnePlus 7Â isn’t coming to the US. It also looks virtually identical to last year’s OnePlus 6T, although it features some significant improvements.
The OnePlus 7 has the same 6.41 inch, 2340 x 1080 pixel display, waterdrop-style notch, and in-display fingerprint sensor as last year’s model. It also has a glass back, dual rear cameras, and comes with at least 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage (it also supports configurations up to 8GB/256GB).
But under the hood, OnePlus has upgraded the processor, storage, and camera. The new model ships with a Snapdragon 855 processor, UFS 3.0 storage, and a 48MP primary camera.
The phone will sell for €559 and up in Europe (about $626… which sounds pretty bad until you realize that the starting price for a OnePlus 7 Pro in Europe is €709, or almost $800). It will also be available in China, India, and select other markets.
Meanwhile Americans who are looking for a cheaper option than the OnePlus 7 Pro will be able to buy… a OnePlus 6T.
The company is continuing to sell last year’s flagship, but it will be getting a price cut this week so that prices will now start at $549 for a model with 8GB of RAM. OnePlus is discontinuing the 6GB model.
