Hurry: Amazon’s amazing OnePlus Christmas deals won’t last long
Save up to £150 on one of OnePlus' top-notch handsets
If all you want for Christmas is a OnePlus smartphone, you’re in luck: Amazon is currently hosting a flash sale on some of the brand’s latest flagship handsets. For today only, the OnePlus 7 Pro and OnePlus 6T are available for up to £150 off.
More specifically: the OnePlus 7 Pro with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage is available for £649, down from £799; and the OnePlus 6T with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage is available for £399, down from £529. But why should you care?
“If there’s one bad thing you can say about OnePlus,” our reviewer wrote, “it’s that it has made reviewing phones very, very dull.
It’s done this in the best possible way for consumers, of course: the Chinese company has made sleek, powerful smartphones that equal or better the big-hitting flagships, some of which cost twice the price in some cases.”
What this means is that recommending these phones – and these offers – is incredibly easy. Of the two, we prefer the OnePlus 6T: we gave it five stars and a Best Buy award, complimenting the exceptional performance, competitive price and unusual in-display fingerprint sensor.
The 6T takes the same sort of advanced Snapdragon processor, AMOLED display and battery found on its competitors – from the likes of Samsung and Huawei – and then somehow manages to cost you half as much. It’s a magic formula that OnePlus has by now perfected.
In fact, the Chinese firm has become so well-established as a purveyor of cheap, powerful handsets that it has started to push the boat out. Enter the OnePlus 7 Pro, a huge 6.7in flagship smartphone with even more high-end features – and a price tag to match. We awarded the OnePlus 7 Pro four stars, explaining that camera software teething issues were the only thing holding the phone back from excellence.
That camera is a 48-megapixel beast flanked by a 16-megapixel ultra-wide lens and an 8-megapixel telephoto lens. Flip the phone over and you’ll find an HDR10+ AMOLED display with no notch in sight: the selfie camera pops up from the top of the phone on command.
We could go on, but we’re sure you get the point: these are fantastic phones with appealing price tags that now look even better after a hefty Amazon discount. If you’re interested, don’t forget that these offers last until midnight tonight, so act fast.
