How's the brightness on the torch? When I moved from a Galaxy Note 4 to a OnePlus 6 a few years ago I was disappointed with how dim the torch was. Is the 8 Pro an improvement in that regard?
Not so bright my old Xiaomi Mimax 2 & MiNote is alot brighter

I just busted the screen and looking for an alternative.
The Xiaomi Note Redmi 4X while only being 5.5inches and an IPS screen, has roughly the same spec and I can get it for around 150USD at the moment.
Any other recommendations as I think I want a phone I can manage more easily in public.
I'll still use the Honor Note 8 at home for streaming videos and such as the cracks aren't luckily on the viewable area.
Xiaomi Mi Max or Mi Max 2
For long battery life Lenovo P2
Redmi Note 4X is enough for daily use, been superb in battery life here, especially if you have rooted and unlocked bootloader. Check our XDA Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon section, very large community and many devs supports, so much ROM you can choose. So much supports you can rely on if you like customizing things.
But if you have a little more budget you can take Lenovo P2, same specs but better display (AMOLED), Gorilla Glass, Battery monster and support fast charging. It's very reliable phone for daily use I think
Cheers guys, 4X looks solid as a budget phone and the P2 looks great with the extra battery and better screen. Just need to figure out if those features are worth double the price.
Just bought the Redmi 4X MTK 4GB version...
Quite dissapointed compared to the Honor Note 8 even though they are roughly the same gen spec.
Performance: Redmi lags opening a variety of apps, Note 8 is still snappy since the day I bought it
Interface: MIUI has no multi-browser support, seems clunky and lacking in options, EMUI is comprehensive and feature rich
Bluetooth: Redmi disconnects on occasion, Note 8 has never
Battery: Redmi drains from 100% to 0% in 8-9hours!, Note 8 lasts 24hours+ - 4100mAh vs 4500mAh, no comparison
Heat: Redmi sitting at 42C, Note 8 at 32C while both are charging, Redmi feels hot even when screen is off, Note 8 always seems cool
I'm looking to get my Note 8 screen fixed and sell the 4X. Only thing I like is the black on black and smaller foot print. Everything, and I mean everything else is better on the Honor Note 8.
The Redmi Note 4X has a Snapdraon 625 - are you sure it is a Mediatek SoC (i.e. the Helio X20), as this should only be present in the Chinese Note 4?
I have owned both the Helio X20 Note 4, Redmi Note 4X SD625 and Redmi Note 4 Global SD625 and battery life has been above average (X20) to fantastic (SD625) on these devices.
Thinking maybe ditching my Pixel 4 XL for the OnePlus 8 Pro. My main beefs with my 4 XL are mediocre to poor battery life, and dim low brightness screen.
Anyone do a similar switch?

I did I had pixel 4xl for few months it is good phone and I choose one plus as replacement and so far I don't regret
Oxygen Os is almost as good as stock Google Os
Only thing I miss is gesture for nav bar from pixel 4
Anyone else switch from a Pixel 4 XL to a OnePlus 8 Pro?
I also switched from a 4xl to an 8 pro.
Virtually everything is better for me with the 8 pro.
I'd give the camera edge to the 4xl but it's closer than I thought it would be.
The wide angle lens and video of the 8 pro brings things pretty close.
The 8 pro is faster, smoother, looks and feels better, is brighter and the Oxygen OS is an upgrade to the pixel launcher (although I still end up reverting back to Nova).
The display with its 120hz and qhd is just ridiculous. Best display ever to this point.
All in all just a great phone and a real upgrade to the 4xl.
IMO

I came from the 3XL, but I share these sentiments after switching to the 8 Pro.

I had the 3xl before the 4xl and found them to be very similar. Love my 8pro.
Best phone I've ever owned.

So I know this will not be a popular opinion, but I received my Note 20 Ultra today and I am not sure I like it more than my OnePlus 8 Pro. I also have a Note 10 plus and when I got the 8 pro I noticed that I used it more than the Note. I know there is a lot going around about the 8 Pro screen, but I guess I am one of the lucky ones. My screen to me is awesome. The sized is a little slimmer than the Notes and a little easier to hold in the hand. Has anyone elses moved from a 8 Pro to a 20 Ultra? What are your thoughts?
If I didn't rely on my s-pen and camera so much, I'd probably own a OnePlus 8 Pro.
I own both phones along with a note 10 plus and temporarily an s20 ultra (until it gets traded in). I would say the OnePlus 8 pro is a marvelous phone. With the addition of the AOD with the latest update it is essentially perfect. I moved to the Note 20 ultra as my primary phone mostly because of the superior multitasking, more storage (yes I need it) and the flexibility of wireless DEX. People say the OnePlus phones "feel" faster but I honestly could never tell the difference.
I had OnePlus 7T for last 6 months, had 8 Pro for a week and now have Note20 Ultra for lat 3 days...I would say 8 Pro is better phone overall (not considering Camera and S Pen)...Software on 8 Pro is lot better than Note20 in my honest opinion..palm rejection on Note20 sucks for me...I still love Note20 screen and design and I am going to keep it until 8T pro comes...I wish they tone down the curved screen on 8T Pro..I didn't like the curve on 8 Pro...
Hi everyone, my brother and I have compared our phones (Oneplus 8 vs my Oneplus 8 pro) and we have noticed how the one touch gestures to see any notification on Ambient display is very slow on PRO model. I don't know why, but it's very noticeable how slow it is compared to "normal" version. This is strange since I expect oneplus 8 pro to be faster and more responsive.
Any solution or ideas?
