Top-performing phone has great screen, superfast charging and solid camera but lacks pizazz
. It has a main 48MP, 50MP ultra-wide and 32MP 2x telephoto on the back, plus a decent 16MP selfie camera on the front
The main camera shoots some of the best photos on a OnePlus yet, with good detail and range, but it loses a little sharpness around the edges of the frame and can struggle with colour balance with warmer scenes occasionally looking a little orange. The ultrawide camera is a little soft on detail and can produce slightly dark shots compared with the other cameras. The 2x telephoto is one of the better short zoom cameras available, good on detail and balance, but it doesn’t meaningfully close the distance to objects. Most rivals have at least 3x optical zoom, with the best reaching up to 10x.
All three cameras struggle a little in low-light scenarios compared with class leaders. The 16MP selfie cam shoots good-looking, detailed images with reasonable dynamic range, handling poor lighting well. A macro photography mode uses the ultrawide camera when getting in close and can produce some excellent images. But you have to be precise to keep the image sharp, which is difficult to judge on screen while shooting. Various additional modes generally work well, including a decent portrait mode and novelOverall, the main camera is good for the price but won’t trouble the best in the business from Apple, Google or Samsung.
