OnePlus Gives Freebies Worth $120 For Preordering Latest Flagship

OnePlus is now accepting preorders for its latest flagships, the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro. The company has decided to give away free items for those who preorder these devices, but only those who get the more premium handset will be able to snag a better deal.

As per Android Central, the OnePlus 8 Pro Launch Bundle will include the Warp Charge 30 Wireless Charger and the new Bullet Wireless Z earbuds. These items are worth $70 and $50 respectively, which means buyers won't have to spend that much on top of the minimum $899 device selling price in order to get them.

OnePlus claims that the Warp Charge 30 Wireless Charger offers 30-watt charging speeds, which is faster than other wireless chargers today, including offerings from third-party companies, Business Insider noted. It's not as fast as the wireless charger that Oppo sells for its new Reno Ace 2, however, Engadget noted.

The Bullet Wireless Z earbuds, on the other hand, offer 20 hours of playback time and a low latency mode that's perfect for when playing games or watching movies on the phone. OnePlus said the audio accessory also users the company's Warp Charge feature to provide 10 hours of battery life from a 10-minute charge.

The OnePlus 8 Pro might be the most expensive handset from the company to date, with prices starting from $899, but its specs and features – as well as the freebies – make it worth the cost.

The handset is powered by a Snapdragon 865, comes with 8GB/12GB of RAM and 128GB/256GB of UFS 3.1 storage, has a 6.78-inch Fluid AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate and 3,168 x 1,440 pixel resolution, has a quad camera at the back, and offers support for 5G.

That quad-cam setup at the back of the phone includes a 48MP Sony IMX689 main sensor, an 8MP telephoto sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide angle lens and a 5MP color filter lens. This setup is accompanied by a dual LED flash. The device is capable of capturing 4K video and 1080p video at 30/60 fps, “Super Slow Motion” video (720p at 480 fps and 1080p at 240 fps), and Time-Lapse (1080P 30fps, 4k 30fps).
