OnePlus 8 Pro camera samples revealed by CEO Pete Lau just days before launch

OnePlus will launch the much-awaited OnePlus 8 on 14 April. Just days ahead of the unveiling, the OnePlus CEO Pete Lau posted four photos on Twitter that highlighted the prowess of the OnePlus 8 Pro camera. Revealing that the OnePlus 8 Pro will sport an ultra-wide camera, Lau said that two of the images were clicked with the upcoming smartphone, while the others were taken by another flagship device. “Ultra wide that can get ultra close. One side here was taken with OnePlus 8 Pro, the other with another flagship phone (I think you can probably tell which is which),” he wrote.
