This Speed Test G bout is pretty crazy when you think about it. How did OnePlus do it? We think the software optimizations of Oxygen OS 10 played a big part here.

Don’t forget that the OnePlus 8 Pro’s entry-tier price is $899, a $400 difference between the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra’s entry price of $1,299. If performance is your main concern, this Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra vs OnePlus 8 Pro Speed Test G challenge might have just saved you $400!
