And the resolution is 2289x1080 pixels. The display is built on an Optic AMOLED type matrix, and a distinctive feature is a “mono-brow”, there is also a 16 MP selfie camera lens with an f / 2.0 aperture, as well as a selection of the necessary sensors. On the back side, the gadget is equipped with a dual photomodule 16 + 20 MP with optical stabilization.

Strong build smartphone, excellent "grade", has excellent "taste" and is dressed in an elegant glass "tuxedo". The rear of the model is “protected” by Gorilla Glass 5 guard glass, and the front part is covered with the sixth generation “gorilla” glass. The center of attention is attracted by the Fluid AMOLED matrix rounded close to the sidewalls, its dimensions reach 6.55 inches diagonally, and the image resolution is 2400x1080 pixels. The color rendition is so super-bright and appetizing that it will certainly please the eye and make you want to taste it. The model has increased the smoothness of image rendering (refresh rate 90 Hz). The OnePlus 8 256GB device uses a fingerprint sensor under the screen, and a gap is made in the display of the model specifically for the 16 MP selfie camera lens.
