The launch of the OnePlus 8 series is expected to be sometime in the next month. However, prior to its official announcement, the OnePlus 8 Pro‘s first live images have surfaced online which showcase the device having a punch hole camera.
There already has been plenty of leaks and rumors regarding the latest flagship series from the Chinese smartphone manufacturer. However, the newest one provides a bit more detailed look at its design. The new set of leaked images depicts a smartphone with a punch hole camera in the front while the rear features a vertically stacked camera module.

In other words, the rear panel of the OnePlus 8 Pro will be quite similar in design to the OnePlus 7T Pro. The similarities mostly end here as the front follows a new design with even slimmer bezels on the side, chin on the bottom and notch on the top. This makes the device offer more screen real estate which also completely covers the front panel.
A notable design change is a skip from the pop up camera mechanism to the punch hole selfie shooter. Recently, even the Oppo Find X2 series made a similar move and it seems like the age of pop up cameras has ended shortly for OnePlus. Although, why exactly the move was made in regards to manufacturing costs or just physical aesthetics is still uncertain. The rear features a triple camera setup again, which will likely be the primary camera alongside the ultra wide and telephoto lens. However, an additional sensor on the side can also be observed which might be the rumored 3D ToF (time of flight) sensor.
