OnePlus just launched the OnePlus 8 and the OnePlus 8 Pro with surprisingly good pricing in India, but that’s not the end of the good news. OnePlus has dropped the price of the OnePlus 7T Pro by Rs 6,000, bringing the price of the phone down to Rs 47,999.
Interestingly, the price cut is limited to the OnePlus 7T Pro, with the McLaren edition and the regular OnePlus 7T still maintaining their original prices. Additionally, the discounted pricing for the OnePlus 7T Pro only reflects on OnePlus’ website and not on Amazon. This could be due to the lockdown as Amazon has unlisted most items from being available for sale on its platform.
The OnePlus portfolio now features the OnePlus 7T starting at Rs 34,999 followed by the OnePlus 8 at Rs 44,999. In the Pro series, the OnePlus 7T Pro now starts at Rs 47,999 while the OnePlus 8 Pro starting at Rs 54,999. The OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren Edition continues to be the most expensive OnePlus smartphone available, with a price tag of Rs 58,999.
The OnePlus 7T Pro is no slouch of a device when we consider it with respect to other devices in the market. It features a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ processor mated to 8/12GB LPDDR4 memory. You get a 6.67-inch 1440p display with a 90Hz refresh rate and is HDR10+ playback capable. The OnePlus 7T Pro also features a triple camera setup, with the primary camera using a Sony IMX 586 sensor, the one with 48 megapixels worth of resolution. The secondary camera features an 8-megapixel resolution and a 3x telephoto lens. The third camera is an ultra-wide shooter with 16-megapixel resolution and 117-degrees field of view.
We noted in our review of the OnePlus 7T Pro that the phone was an excellent value for money proposition even at its original price thanks to its speedy performance, excellent display and even very reliable cameras. Now with the price having been reduced and the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro out, the OnePlus 7T Pro still makes good purchase sense, seeing how OnePlus’s devices tend to last longer than the average Android smartphone.
