Oneplus 8 Pro, no 5G still; What about 4G performance?

Dragonaut — Tue, 12 Jan 2021 13:40:43 GMT

I'm aware the OnePlus 8 Pro isn't truly compatible with O2's 5G network but, how well does it work with standard 4G? I can't get a clear answer, I'm not fussed by 5G at this point, I really just want a daily runner with a decent connection. Can anyone clarify this for me? Cheers!

@Dragonaut

No reason why it wouldn't perform the same as any other phone.

A few of us have had older OP devices and have worked perfectly well on 4g.

Afternoon MI5 👍 Cheers for the quick response, I thought as much too, though some have reported massive slow down on O2's 4G network, as well as strange WIFI bottlenecking. I'm on the fence about purchasing this phone, may bite the bullet and give it a go.

Oh, I currently have a OnePlus 6T, as you say, older OP phone work perfectly fine and you're right, my 6T works flawlessly. This only adds to my confusion as to why some are having issues with a basic 4G connection, with the 8 series.

No logical reason as far as I can see ?
