On April 1, it was reported that Liu Zuohu, the founder of OnePlus, mentioned in a forum article that the company's R&D team had made improvements for the upcoming OnePlus 8 mobile phone. He said that to achieve this goal, hardware and software need to be properly combined.

The new phone will be driven by Snapdragon 865, which is not news, because in previous years, all flagship phones of OnePlus have the latest SoC. Officially, the Snapdragon 865 improves CPU and GPU performance by 25%, reduces power consumption by a quarter, and has a more power saving video encoder and DSP.

The running memory will be faster LPDDR5, up to 6400Mbps, while the maximum speed of LPDDR4X used by One Plus 7T Pro is 4266Mbps. Compared with the previous standard, the power consumption of LPDDR5 is reduced by 45%. This should refer to the older LPDDR4.

The One Plus 8 Pro and One Plus 8 will use UFS 3.0 storage. Like the previous One Plus 7T series, the read-write speed is expected to reach 1700MB/s, and support Turbo Write and Host Performance Booster.

Liu Zuohu said that only good hardware can not solve problems, so the company focuses on optimizing software and only adds functions that are really important to you.

The One Plus 8 series will be released on April 16. This morning, Liu Zuohu also revealed that the One Plus 8 Pro will be equipped with a "pupil screen". It is speculated that it may be a hole digging screen like the OPPO Find X2 Pro.
