The OnePlus 7T is my favorite OnePlus phone yet.

At 600 dollars, you have a terrific screen,

great performance, and cameras

which are actually decent this year.

Now if that's all you care about,

feel free to stop watching the video,

but there's a lot more to this OnePlus 7T

than meets the eye.

We've got to start with the screen, it's terrific.

Not only is it plenty bright even in daylight,

but importantly, it is a super smooth 90 hertz.

Now this is certainly not the first

high refresh rate display on a phone,

the Razer Phone a couple years ago pulled that off,

however it was a phone with lots of compromises.

Sure you had that smooth performance, then things

like brightness and color accuracy really weren't there.

However with the 7T, I really feel like they nailed it.

Now sure, it's only 1080P as opposed to 1440P like the pro,

and that was plenty sharp,

but I will take this screen any day.

It gets significantly brighter, and importantly

you pay less of the battery life penalty.

Not only resolution hurts, but also the higher frame rate

means that your GPU is not being taxed more.

I think that this is a really nice sweet-spot.

So the last week I've been using a pair of phones,

the OnePlus 7T, as well as the iPhone 11 Pro.

Well obviously this is the more expensive phone,

there's a lot going for it, you know what?

I keep going back to the 7T, and almost entirely

because of just how smooth the screen is.

The 90 hertz isn't a huge deal for some people.

I know some people can't tell a major difference.

But as far as I'm concerned, it is so, so much smoother.

Obviously iOS 13 and the more powerful A13

on the iPhone are quick, but the actual response

on this in the way this looks and feels to me,

is sort of ruining every other

60 hertz display out there, which is like literally

all phones besides the Razer Phone and the ROG.

I think we're going to see a lot more of this

super smooth display action in

a lot of other phones coming up.

I mean the Pixel 4 is very heavily rumored to include it.

Because Samsung is making the OLED panels

that go well out of these phones,

wouldn't be surprised to see it

on the next generation Galaxy as well.

I mean really at this point, it just makes such a difference

to smooth this that why wouldn't you do it?

Especially considering that it's now

on a 600 dollar OnePlus phone.

This is a smaller point, but something

I really like with the 7T, is the physical size.

As much as I like that 7 Pro, it is a big, hefty phone.

And I like the 7T because it's

pretty much smaller in all aspects.

So it's significantly thinner,

it's also a little bit smaller,

and pretty much all other dimensions,

but the thing that really makes the big difference

is the fact that it is a little bit narrower

thanks to that 20:9 display.

Now with that, it means that yes the phone is very tall,

but in the hand, especially paired with the tapered back,

and how like narrow it is,

it actually is a very usable size.

A lot of times when I get a really wide phone,

a really heavy phone, it's hard for me

to use on a regular basis.

But this 7T hits a really nice sweet spot.

It's a lot better than I thought,

considering that on paper, it's only like a millimeter here,

a few grams there, but it does add up.

Now the next question is the camera

which is traditionally been a weak point on OnePlus phones.

Now this time around the OnePlus 7T

has a very familiar triple camera set up,

a 17 millimeter ultra-wide camera,

a 28 millimeter wide camera,

as well as 51 meter telephoto camera.

In fact, if that sounds familiar,

that's because that is nearly the exact same setup

as which you'll find on the iPhone 11 Pro.

So why don't we do a little blind camera test

to see if you guys can tell the difference

because there are some pretty major ones,

but also some of these shots look pretty close as well.

Not bad for a phone that costs 400 dollars less.

First off we have a shot taken on the ultra-wide cameras.

So camera A, I immediately liked the color more,

Camera B looks a little bit more washed out.

If I zoom in here, I think,

there's definitely a little bit more detail

in camera A, compared to camera B which is, I don't know.

It looks like every thing is a little bit more washed out

there's actual skin tones here,

where it's kind of almost black and white here.

Next up we have a shot taken on the standard

white angle cameras on both phones.

Now this one, I think is a very very clear win for camera 2.

You can see it, there's so much more dynamic range,

whereas in camera A it's almost kind of like silhouette-y.

Now this next shot was taken on the telephoto lenses.

So I think camera B is probably a little more life like,

but honestly, I think that it's a

clear win for camera A here.

You can see that there's a little bit more detail

on the actual basket here, and especially the flowers

kind of all fall a little bit flat on camera B

whereas they're actually kind of nice and punchy.

I can easily kind of distinguish between them.

This next photo is a macro-shot.

So here they're actually pretty close.

Detail-wise, it looks like camera B

did a little bit of a better job.

Yeah that leaf is definitely sharper on camera A.

I think camera B is a little bit warmer, but I'd give a

slight lend to camera B, but not by a huge amount here.

Now the last comparison is with the night modes.

So camera A is a clear loser here.

So this was shot in a very dark environment

and both actually did a really good job

of pulling the level up, in fact I think camera A

did a little bit better job sort of getting the white balnce

just right, however if you look at my face,

it's just not focused correctly,

whereas camera B did a much better job.

Now at this point I think it's very clear

that there are some pretty major

differences between these cameras.

Shall we reveal which one's which?

So I'm very curious, which phone do you like better?

Is it camera A or camera B?

Let me know in the comments below

of which phone you think is which.

Don't worry, don't cheat, I'm just gonna sit here,

go down to the comments, pause the video,

let me know what you think, and the answer is,

Camera A is the OnePlus 7T,

whereas camera B is the iPhone 11 Pro Max.

Bet you didn't see that one coming, did ya?

Or maybe you did.

There are some real surprises here,

and I think the main thing that really jumps out to me

is that these camera actually traded blows.

A lot of times where I'd prefer the much more

less expensive OnePlus 7, now specifically

with the night mode, this is actually

where the 7T stumbled the most, focus,

it just didn't like to focus at night.

So I've taken some really nice night-scape shots

and some of them look fantastic,

but as far as actually having people in the frame,

it generally just doesn't like that focus,

and I wanna think that we took probably six or seven

of these before we finally got

the OnePlus to actually lock on.

So if we take a look at the OnePlus side by side

with the iPhone as far as portrait mode,

I've gotta say I actually kind of prefer

the OnePlus in this shot.

So especially when you look at Ken's fingers here,

you can actually see that it's really nicely cut out,

whereas on the iPhone, it kind of misses a little bit.

Now the iPhone does do a little bit of a better job,

I think it warms the image up,

it looks a little bit more natural.

But, that being said, I think the OnePlus

actually does a much better job
