OnePlus 8T Vs iPhone 12 mini How Apples Smaller 5G Phone Compares

Announced a day apart, the OnePlus 8T and Apple iPhone 12 mini are the latest 5G phones from these popular manufacturers. OnePlus uses a variation on Android, while Apple uses its own iOS, meaning these are very different devices. OnePlus 8T is quite large, while the iPhone 12 mini is, as the name implies, very small. With similar pricing, a comparison will be helpful for anyone deciding between these two new devices.

OnePlus has a reputation of making advanced tech available at affordable prices. Its phones often feature the latest processor, advanced displays and good quality cameras. Apple has historically been seen as keeping prices high, but has been holding its top level smartphones at the same prices recently, while also offering low cost models that incorporate newer tech in previous generation designs.

At $749, the OnePlus 8T is loaded with the top-of-the-line Qualcomm Snapdragon 865, 12-gigabytes of RAM and 256-gigabytes of storage. This will be a snappy smartphone ready for gaming. Apple’s iPhone 12 mini with the blazing fast A14 processor starts at $699 with 64-gigabytes of RAM. For a fair comparison, it’s worth mentioning the 128-gigabyte version matches the OnePlus price at $749 and, with the same amount of memory, the 256-gigabyte version costs $849. If that much storage is needed, the price advantage goes to OnePlus. Since these are both 5G capable smartphones, uploading photos and videos to cloud storage shouldn’t be a problem, so one could argue that the extra capacity isn’t needed.

Display, Cameras, Charging, & More

Clearly, the OnePlus 8T’s 6.55-inch screen is much larger than that of the iPhone 12 mini, which is just 5.4-inches. Whether that is seen as a fault or a feature depends on the individual. Apple does make a 6.1-inch version that costs $100 more and matches all other specifications of the iPhone 12 mini. Again there is that pricing increase, though. The OnePlus pushed display tech to the limits with its newest phone, featuring the same 120Hz refresh rate that was rumored for the iPhone 12, but did not become a reality. Both have HDR OLED so brightness and color will be similar.

OnePlus didn’t spend much time discussing cameras at the event, though its newest phone has four rear cameras, including a 48-megapixel f/1.75 wide angle, a 16-megapixel ultra-wide, a 5-megapixel macro, and a 2-megapixel monochrome. Apple poured over every detail of its wider aperture f/1.6 wide angle and f/2.4 ultra-wide cameras, both of which are 12-megapixel shooters. For OnePlus it was a brief mention, for Apple it was a point of pride. Since these products were just released, hands-on tests have not been possible, but one would expect Apple to have an edge in camera quality here.

When it comes to charging, the OnePlus 8T has a remarkable new Warp Charge 65 that achieves 60-percent charge level in just fifteen minutes, claiming that won’t hurt battery life. Apple held to the fast, but more conservative, 50-percent in half an hour. For those that haven’t heard, Apple no longer includes a charger in the box, citing environmental concerns. These are very different phones, but another feature that stands out is identification method. The iPhone 12 mini uses Face ID which is super fast and the absolute easiest way to unlock a phone. However, with the current need to wear face masks in public, the advantage is lost and the in-screen fingerprint scanner on the OnePlus 8T scores the win.

Ultimately, choosing between the OnePlus 8T and the Apple iPhone 12 mini should be easy. For those that have other Apple products, the iPhone has so many integrations that it’s hard to consider another manufacturer. For those that use a PC, Chromebook or Android, the OnePlus 8T will feel more comfortable. Device size can play a role in the decision, if the operating system doesn’t. The easily handled mini is the smallest and lightest iPhone available. It’s just 5.2-inches across and weighs less than 4.8-ounces. The OnePlus 8T is 6.3-inches wide and weighs 6.6-ounces.
