Chinese OEM OnePlus finally unveiled its most premium flagship lineup of 2020. The OnePlus 8 and the OnePlus 8 Pro became official in an online launch event yesterday on 14 April. This is by far the most powerful and the most premium device OnePlus has ever manufactured. It seems like there’s going to be tough competition in the smartphone market.
