Weekly poll: OnePlus 7 Pro is now available, who is getting one?
OnePlus is officially part of the mainstream - with its partnership with T-Mobile and a promo campaign with Robert Downey Jr., the company wants its brand to be as recognizable as Apple or Samsung. That also means it's not shy about the price. At $700, the OnePlus 7 Pro matches the iPhone XS ($730) and Galaxy 10e ($750 MSRP, though you could easily find an S10 for that kind of cash). Long-time fans will likely scoff at that price, but they can look to the OnePlus 7 as an upgrade path. Indeed, the non-Pro won't even be available in the new hunting ground for OnePlus, the US. Americans...
Counterclockwise: searching for the meaning of max, mini, pro, plus and other such names
Is "Pro" better than a "Plus"? Which is bigger, "Max" or "Note"? Which has the bigger battery? How small is a "mini", anyway? Some of these qualifiers do carry some meaning, e.g. "note" always means a larger device. Larger than the company's average phone that is, there is no legal minimum for a phone to be get "note" in its name. "Max" is more vague - it could mean a large screen, large battery or both. Similarly, "Pro" and "Plus" carry connotations of a more premium device (which often means larger too), but again there are no rules to naming phones. Let's start by finding which...
The new phones of the week
Some week we had! A whole bunch of announcements took place over the past few days - some exciting, others even more so. It all started on Tuesday with the reveal of the OnePlus 7 Pro, and its vanilla 7 sidekick. OnePlus releases always make waves and this one was no different. The 7 Pro comes with a superb QHD+ 90Hz display, a trifecta of cameras on the back, and a motorized selfie cam. Be sure to have a look at our findings in the in-depth review. Then on Wednesday, Realme pulled the wraps off the X. The ultra affordable, yet properly well specced smartphone from Realme really...
Weekly poll results: Pixel 3a gets some love, the Pixel 3a XL not so much
Google's mid-range Pixel phones have a very specific target audience - if they find success somewhere, it will be in North America (and maybe Western Europe). They can only thrive in regions where the mid-range segment is sparse as the pricing is too high to compete with the likes of Xiaomi or Honor. The smaller Google Pixel 3a proved the more popular model by a wide margin. Price is part of the issue - you get the same camera and chipset whether you pay $400 or $480. And the camera is indeed the main draw of this phone. There are plenty of Android One phones out there, many with solid...
Top 10 trending phones of week 20
After the relatively boring week 19, this week properly shook things up with a bunch of exciting announcements, which really shook up our trending chart. The OnePlus 7 Pro went official and unsurprisingly took advantage of that to leap to the top. The new flagship was sitting just behind the Samsung Galaxy A50 for the past two weeks when it was still only a rumor and now that it's a real thing it had no trouble dethroning the Samsung mid-ranger. The vanilla OnePlus 7 didn't get as much attention previously, but it still managed to make the podium this week, pushing another Galaxy A...
