Hey everyone, this is Tony and Taylor
@Taylor.Mah from the OnePlus U.S. Brand Ambassador Program. Today, we’ll be comparing the OnePlus 7T to the 7 Pro in terms of camera performance.
Before we show camera samples, we’ll go over the specs of both devices to highlight key hardware differences between both phones. The 7T features a 48mp main camera with a relatively large aperture of f/1.6, optical image stabilization, and electronic image stabilization. The 2x telephoto lens has 12mp with an aperture of f/2.2. As for the ultra-wide-angle lens, the 7T packs a 16mp f/2.2 lens with a field of view of 117°. The front camera sports an aperture of f/2.0 and a megapixel count of 16. There are also a couple new additions with the 7T such as the Super Macro mode which allows for a much closer minimum focusing distance (this lets you to get closer to the subject).
The OnePlus 7 Pro features similar camera specs with a nearly identically configured main, front, and ultra-wide camera. However, it’s telephoto lens only packs 8mp with an aperture of f/2.4. Both the 7 Pro and 7T can record 4K video up to 60fps.
Now that we went over the specs of these two smartphones, let’s take a look at some camera samples. All photos were taken with automatic settings (unless otherwise stated) to represent what the average smartphone camera user could capture. Both phones were also updated to their respective latest software versions as of writing this (Oxygen OS 10.0.5.HD65AA for the 7T and Oxygen OS 10.0.1.GM21AA).

Looking at these photos, you probably wouldn’t have noticed much of a difference between the two smartphones. For the most part, sharpness, contrast, saturation, and white balance were very similar (if not identical), and we cannot see a significant difference between the two smartphones. The only area where the 7T shows a significant difference is in macro applications due to the new Super Macro mode. The marginal difference between both smartphones in the camera department really goes to show how much OnePlus has achieved over the past few years. We’re glad to see that the camera technology of the 7T matches its indirect predecessor, the 7 Pro, and even surpasses it in some cases (especially shown with the Super Macro mode). Overall, both smartphones produce excellent images with little to no difference. If you have to choose between one of these, the decision would probably rest upon the differences in screen quality, size, performance, battery, and price.
Thank you all for reading this post!
