The fingerprint scanner it’s located in the in-display and has some amazing speeds because of the new ultrasonic sensor in display.

OnePlus 10R comes with massive 150 watts of the charger. Which can fully charge the OnePlus 10R in just 10 minutes which is amazingly fast. There is wireless charging support. The charging speeds are so good that on 5 minutes of charge this OnePlus 10R can last up to 6 hours thanks to that massive 4500MAh battery. OnePlus 10R is a full-day phone I mean this phone can last all day long. This type of smartphone is needed for those people who travel a lot. Because this phone can charge in just 10 minutes compared to the iPhone 13 pro max which takes about 2 hours to charge.



MAIN CAMERA:

Matrix 50 megapixels
Image resolution 8700 x 5800
Zoom Digital
Flash Dual LED
Stabilization Optical
8K video recording No
4K video recording 60 FPS
1080p video recording Up to 60FPS
Lenses (50 MP + 8 MP + 2 MP)

OnePlus 10R has 3 cameras at the back and the main camera is awesome. The OnePlus 10R main Camera is 50 megapixel Sony IMX 766 F/1.9. What makes this camera setup even more awesome is that this camera lens is combined with the wide aperture of F/1.9, the wider the aperture the more light will it collect and the more sharp the image and video quality will be. This OnePlus 10R can record video at 4K at 60 FPS. This is amazing the video will contain more details thanks to its good optimization software and the high-end processor. You can also record 4K at 30FPS which will contain even more details and will be sharper. There is Optical image stabilization on the main lens only. This is quite impressive, this will make the camera experience more stable and more accurate. You will say goodbye to that blurry shots and unstable videos. The OnePlus 10R has 2 more camera lenses. Let’s talk about that in detail.


Lenses:

Triple 50 MP, f/1.9, 24mm (wide), 1/1.56″, 1.0µm, PDAF, OIS
8 MP, f/2.2, 16mm, 120˚ (ultrawide), 1/4.0″, 1.12µm
2 MP, f/2.4, (macro)
Features LED flash, HDR, panorama

As I mentioned above that this 50 MP sensor is good. But this OnePlus 10R has 2 more camera lenses. There is another camera sensor of 8MP which is an ultra-wide camera. The field of view is 16mm which is wider. This camera sensor also has some amazing autofocus. This sensor can take amazing shots with high accuracy. Its aperture is F/2.2, which makes it sharp and contains good tons on subjects. This OnePlus 10R has an amazing camera setup, with fast autofocus lenses, high sensors, and good software optimization. There is another 2MP macro camera which is useless in most situations because it’s only 2MP.

SELFIE CAMERA:

Single 16 MP, f/2.4, 26mm (wide), 1/3.09″, 1.0µm
Features HDR, panorama
Video 1080p@30fps, gyro-EIS

When it comes to selfie cameras the OnePlus 10R has a single punch whole camera of 16MP which has the largest pixels. This single-punch whole camera contains some awesome details when it comes to daytime shots. At night time this camera sensor struggles a lot.  And what makes me more concerned is about its aperture because its aperture, which is only F/2.4 which means the photos will look not accurate as other smartphones, also this camera will suffer a lot at night because the sensor is not that wide to capture more light thus leaving us in disappointed. The camera video capabilities are also kept at 1080P at 30FPS only.


Connectivity:

Wi-Fi standard Wi-Fi 6
Bluetooth version 5.2
USB type USB Type-C
NFC* Yes

This OnePlus 10R is launching with the Wi-Fi 6 which is faster, more efficient, and gives you less latency when compared to the Wi-Fi 5. Which will make the user experience smoother and faster. There is also the support of Bluetooth 5.2. Which is also faster and more efficient than version 5.1. OnePlus 10R has the USB type C gen 2.0 support which makes sense because of the 120 watts of fast wire charging so it must need more bandwidth for charging speeds. It also helps with the data transfer because it helps with the faster read and write speeds. OnePlus 10R also has NFC support which is also useful. You can pay, and transfer files at high speeds thanks to the NFC support.

SOUND:

Speakers Yes, with stereo speakers
Headphone audio jack No

The OnePlus 10R comes with stereo speakers. This OnePlus 10R has nice sound quality with a nice amount of bass in it. This will help in gaming because there are two speakers one at the bottom and one at the top which will help gamers. Video watching and hearing to music also going to be good. There is no 3.5mm headphone jack which is neither good nor bad.


Colors:

Colors Sierra Black, Forest Green

The OnePlus 10R is going to lunch in three different colors. Sierra Black, Forest Green. OnePlus is known for its premium colors with good contexts. I like the Sierra Black color because it looks better than these two colors.

Price:

This smartphone is costing around $400 which is way cheaper than the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra and the iPhone 13 pro max.



Final Thoughts:

If you are looking for a good Mid-Flagship phone, good gaming phone, good design, good display, and amazing performance then this OnePlus 10R is worth buying. Because it has all the needs that a good consumer needs.
