General
It is remarkable smartphone to use in day-to-day usage. It is absolutely lightening fast at opening apps, switching the apps, and multi-tasking. However, the phone does tend to kill off background apps rather quickly due to aggressive RAM management, so heavier apps like games don’t stay open in the background for long.
Battery Life
The OnePlus 8T have 4,500mAh battery. The slightly bigger battery is required due to the 120Hz refresh rate. You can stretch the battery life little longer, but not significantly longer.
