About four days ago we received the new eighth generation OnePlus family, which, as you may already know, is made up of the OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro. It was said that a third model was going to arrive with these on the same day of launch, but this was denied as it did not.
Both mobiles are high-performance. Therefore, they have the best of the best. However, they are always waiting for new improvements, which are usually added through software updates on a regular basis, and this is something that applies to these devices at this time, because the Chinese company has already announced an OTA, the first, for both terminals, which turns out to be surprising since not a week has passed since the presentation of this series.
