Digital Camera World Verdict

The OnePlus 10 Pro is a great smartphone. It’s reasonably priced, has flagship specs, and a stunning screen. While its camera mix isn’t class-leading, it does capture an expansive 150º field of view, takes rich, warm photos, and its videos look good too. Despite not being perfect, therefore, it’s easy to recommend for gamers and streaming video fans who need a brilliant display, ample power, and a capable camera phone with a few compromises.

OnePlus announced its flagship 10 Pro smartphone in China at the end of 2021, but the phone has only just seen a global launch, with availability in Europe, India, North America, and the UK announced over three months later. 

This updated global version of the 10 Pro is loaded up with Google Play Services and Oxygen OS – OnePlus’s global interface for Western users, and we also have international pricing too. The phone starts at $899 / £799, which undercuts both the Xiaomi 12 Pro and the Pixel 6 Pro in the UK, and matches their global/US prices. The 10 Pro also costs less than the OnePlus 9 Pro did on launch which is unexpected.
