OnePlus 10T just made its debut in the global market alongside the OxygenOS 13, while the launch of the rebranded version OnePlus Ace Pro was postponed after the tensions between China and Taiwan following Nancy Pelosi’s visit to the island. The OnePlus 10T offers the best hardware you can expect in 2022 and amazing performance, but its price is all but excessive, even in the European markets. But there is another handset that will debut soon in these markets after being launched in India: the global version of the OPPO Reno8 Pro. This is a comparison between the main specifications of the OnePlus 10T and the OPPO Reno8 Pro Global. Note that the Global version of the Reno is different from the Chinese one: consider it as a rebrand of the device known in China as the Reno8 Pro Plus.

Design
The most refined design belongs to the OPPO Reno8 Pro 5G, at least in my opinion. First of all, it has narrower bezels around the display, with the screen covering more than 90 percent of the front panel. It is made with premium materials: the rear side is made of glass, while the frame is aluminum, while the OnePlus 10T has a glass back and a plastic frame. The front glass of the Reno is protected by Gorilla Glass 5, one of the most advanced protection by Corning, and the same is for the rear glass and the front glass of the 10T. The Reno has a thinner and lighter design: it weighs just 183 grams and is 7.3 mm thick, while the OnePlus weighs more than 200 grams and is 8.8 mm thick. In my opinion, there is no challenge here: OPPO made a better device in terms of design.
Display
The displays of the OnePlus 10T and the OPPO Reno8 Pro Global should be exactly the same panel because the specifications are the same. They come with an AMOLED display sporting a diagonal of 6.7 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2412 pixels, a 120 Hz refresh rate, and the HDR10+ certification. These displays are able to show up to one billion colors with great accuracy and they include an in-display fingerprint reader. We are not talking about the most advanced panels in the market, but they are definitely among the most advanced ones. Both the handsets come with stereo speakers, but they have no audio jack. As already mentioned above, the displays are protected by Gorilla Glass 5 and they have very narrow bezels, but the bezels are narrower on the Reno. The displays come with punch holes placed in the central part.
Specs & Software
The best and most powerful hardware department belongs to the OnePlus 10T. It is fueled by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 mobile platform: currently the best processor by Qualcomm. It is an SoC built at 4 nm with an octa-core architecture composed of a Cortex X2 CPU running at a max frequency of 3.19 GHz, three Cortex A710 CPUs running at 2.75 GHz, four Cortex A710 CPUs running at a frequency of 1.8 GHz, and an Adreno 730 GPU. The chipset is paired with a very advanced cooling system, up to 16 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 native storage. There are also configurations with 8 or 12 GB of RAM and 128 or 256 GB of native storage. The OPPO Reno8 Pro is equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 Max mobile platform built at 5 nm and running at a max frequency of 2.85 GHz: it is comparable to the Snapdragon 888 by Qualcomm and it is paired with up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage. Both the phones run Android 12 out of the box and they have similar user interfaces: ColorOS 12.1 and OxygenOS 12.
Camera
The camera sensors placed on the rear sides of these two phones are exactly the same: they sport a 50 MP Sony IMX766 main camera, an 8 MP ultrawide lens, and a 2 MP macro camera. But there are two important differences: the OnePlus 10T includes optical stabilization (OIS), while the OPPO Reno8 Pro is aided by the MariSilicon X proprietary NPU improving night photography. The selfie cameras are different: the Reno is superior thanks to its 32 MP selfie shooter, while the 10T has an inferior 16 MP front camera.
Battery
The battery life of the OnePlus 10T will be longer thanks to the presence of a bigger 4800 mAh battery. This phone will even charge quicker thanks to 150W fast charging. The OPPO Reno8 Pro has a 4500 mAh battery with 80W fast charging.
Price
The OnePlus 10T is priced at Rs. 49,999 in India which roughly translates into $632, while the OPPO Reno8 Pro costs Rs. 45,999 or $581. Which of these phones would you pick?
