OnePlus 10 Pro 5G (Emerald Forest, 8GB RAM, 128GB Storage)

This is a review for phone users, not gamers, photographers, whole-day social media people. My usage of phone is for calling, some texting, and occasional videos and photographs. My last phone lasted for more than 5 years and is still working. This is my first OnePlus phone, so I don't know about their previous phone quality.Look and feel:Feels solid in the hand, grip is good with the supplied cover.Battery life:I have been using it for over a week and for me a single charge lasts for more than a day. In fact, recently I did a drive from South India to North India of over 2000kms and the phone was connected over Android Auto for more than 10 hrs each day. The battery lasted well.Heating?I didn't find any major heating issues. Some mild heat, yes. Its similar to if you keep running any machine non-stop, or even if you keep running, your body heats up. Its normal. I am not sure what everyone's expectation is with respect to phone's not heating up. Use it reasonably, it performs very well. Well, if you are always on phone, then probably it would heat up. I don't even use 120hz refresh rate. To a normal human eye, the difference between 60-90-120hz is not perceptible. I keep it at 60, battery lasts long, doesn't heat. Phone is happy, I am happy :)Camera:Decent to nice photographs. Low ligt photography is also pretty good. For serious photography, I have a DSLR and other camera and I trust them more than any phone camera. For occasional clicks, this done a fine job.Gaming:I am not a gamer and have never played any game on any phone so don't have an opinion.Speed/StorageUltra fast with respect to installing, uninstalling apps. 256GB storage is more than sufficient for my use. My previous phone had 64GB and in 5 years, it never got full. Well, I keep a tight control on what gets installed and downloaded on my phone. I don't let junk accumulate on phone, keeps the phone and battery life long.Sound:Very good sound quality of speakers. Well its a phone and it can do only as much. For more serious viewing, I watch on my TV and home theater.Overall:A fantastic phone at this price point. I couldn't find anything that is bad with the phone. With my usage, it will easily last for more than 4-5 years.

Perfect

The phone got delivered within a day so no complains with that...So I have used this device now for quite some days and what I think is its good but certainly can improve...Lets talk about Pros1. Great display, screen and feel. One of the best gives premium feeling.2. Camera and color balance definitely better than older devices.3. SD 8 gen 1 makes it fast.4. Security like lock screen face detection in display fingerprint is really fast and responsive.5. Boost for gaming and all works really good. Surprisingly during games like Battleground, call of duty phone is cool but during genshin impact too much heating.6. Sound quality is good too7. Oxygen OS with android 12 is smoooooth.Cons:1. Battery drains fast if u use 120 hz and always on display, anyways it gives screen time of 5 hr 15 min thats pretty less just somehow manages for a day.2. Below 10% if u work on camera or video phone gets heated.3. Apps like MX player, Instagram takes lot of battery and heats the phone. So heatong issue is there and hopefully oneplus tries to fix this by update.4. Ringtones and sounds kind a feel very low sometimes previous phone like my 8T had good sound volume.So the phone has only battery issues but not that bad compared to other devices. Still better than others.

I waited for the 10 Pro launch and ordered on the very first day of the sale. I actually upgraded from 7T to 10 Pro – thought I would post my review based on my experience in the last few days.Pros:Look – Awesome design with a premium finish. It gives you a great feeling when you hold it.Charging – 80W SuperVOOC charging speeds are lightning fast. Wireless charging didn’t disappoint me either, it’s definitely a bonus.Camera – Amazing camera performance. With plenty of modes inbuilt, you can play if you are a camera lover. I personally liked the primary camera.Display – Outstanding 120Hz LTPO2 AMOLED display and great colour accuracy.Games – Performance is exceptionally good while playing BGMI, COD and a few other games that I play frequently.Cons:Battery – With 5000 MAH, I expected a longer battery life but it drains quicker with normal to low usage. If you are playing games, be sure to charge 2 to 3 times a day. But it's okay OnePlus got that covered with the charging speed.Cost – 72 k is slightly on the higher side. There are other mobiles with similar configurations which would cost about 20k-30k lesser. But with OnePlus you can always expect a 5k-10k increase in every new variant that they launch.If you are a OnePlus lover or want to try OnePlus for the first time and if you can afford it – simply go for it without reading any other reviews 😊..

Rating: ⭐ (One Star is more than enough)I’m extremely disappointed with both the product and the post-purchase support experience.I purchased a phone from SA Infosys Pvt. Ltd. through Amazon, and right from day one, the device had a green line on the screen. I reached out to Amazon expecting help, but was simply told they’re just a mediator and advised to visit OnePlus customer care.After a quick check and a few restarts, the green line temporarily disappeared. But within days (on June 20), a pink line appeared on the display. I revisited OnePlus, and while they replaced the display after four days (June 24), they broke the back panel in the process. After raising concerns again, the back panel was eventually fixed — but from the same day, I started experiencing severe heating and battery drain issues.Since then, I’ve visited the service center 4–5 times, only to be told yesterday that now the motherboard is faulty.This has been a nightmare. I’ve spent ₹34,000 of my hard-earned money, and I’m still left without a properly functioning phone. No accountability, no permanent resolution — just frustration.
