But, then also OnePlus 7 Pro lacks some flagship features like Wireless charging, official IP rating, etc. So, lets us find out whether it worth the asking price or not.
Before diving into the review of OnePlus 7 Pro, first, we go through the Specs sheet of OnePlus 7 Pro-
In the battery department, OnePlus 7 Pro packs a competition worthy 4,000 mAh battery which looks decent enough to carry out your daily usage. Plus, there is a includes 30W Warp Charger in the box, which is great and charges the phone very fast.
But, in my frank opinion, you can buy OnePlus 7 over OnePlus 7 Pro which costs just Rs.32,999, a 16K lesser than OnePlus 7 Pro and comes with the same performance, software, and almost same cameras. But, if you want a better-looking phone than OnePlus 7, a QHD+ 90Hz display and an ultra-wide camera, and can bear more 16K rupees then you can go for OnePlus 7 Pro.

OnePlus 7 Pro Design and Build
In one simple word, the design and build of OnePlus 7 Pro is amazing. OnePlus 7 Pro comes with usual metal and glass sandwiched design which does looks stunning. OnePlus has made a lot in making the look and feel of OnePlus 7 Pro great.
Although, the OnePlus 7 Pro appears to be slippery and thin bezels makes the phone difficult to hold, but it is very well built and feels premium to hold. Bezels are even thinner than that of 6T.
OnePlus 7 Pro comes with usual placements of buttons, Alert Slider, sim-tray, speaker vents and microphones. Again, there is no headphone jack, which is disappointing.
OnePlus 7 Pro Display
The marvelous display of OnePlus 7 Pro ships with a 6.67-inch QHD+ 'Fluid AMOLED' panel which has two major improvements. First being, the use of Quad HD+ screen for the first time on an OnePlus phone and the other being the use of a 90Hz display which is more than other flagship smartphones.
Display of OnePlus 7 Pro is gorgeous, produces stunning colors, deep blacks, and great viewing angles. The implementation of the pop-up camera module does make the overall front design of OnePlus 7 Pro amazing.
