The OnePlus 10 Pro is entitled to a first grip which notably allows you to see what it is capable of doing with its camera certified by Hasselblad.

The OnePlus 10 Pro has been officially announced in China last week. One of the aspects most highlighted by this smartphone, in addition to the powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 that it embeds, is its very imposing photo module designed in collaboration with the Hasselblad specialist. A first and fairly short handling of the smartphone allows you to discover the photographer’s talents of the OnePlus 10 Pro.
The article is signed XDA Developers. The author specifies that he is in Hong Kong, but that he must remain in quarantine. The photos he was able to take are therefore not the most diverse, but they allow you to have a first unofficial glimpse of the photo quality of the OnePlus 10 Pro.
OnePlus 10 Pro et HDR
HDR management on the OnePlus 10 Pro is quickly put to the test. The tester indeed captures a scene with an indoor office in the foreground and the city outside in the background, on the other side of a bay window.
We can thus see that the dynamics are fairly well managed since the phone manages to maintain a correct exposure on the desktop, even if we could have expected a more punchy luminosity on this part. This allows the OnePlus 10 Pro to transcribe the buildings on the outside, which however have slightly washed-out and pastel colors on the rendering.
XDA Developers compare with a iPhone 13 Pro and Apple’s smartphone more effectively illuminates the office indoors, but picks up very little information from the scene outdoors. Through the window, you can see almost nothing but white. We really feel that there are two different approaches from OnePlus and Apple.
No automatic night mode
Everyone can see an advantage or a disadvantage, but the OnePlus 10 Pro does not automatically switch to night mode when the scene photographed is dark. Yet it is a behavior adopted by a good part of the competition.
Night mode on an iPhone is indeed triggered automatically, while if the scene optimizer is activated on a Samsung smartphone, low-light photos are also subject to longer processing to improve exposure.

On night scenes, when there is still enough light, the OnePlus 10 Pro once again manages to “see” well what is in front of it, but does not avoid the appearance of noise in the light. image or some strong light sources a little badly managed. In a darker environment, it will certainly go through the night mode to see better.
150 degrees and distortion
This short grip is also an opportunity to remember that the OnePlus 10 Pro has an ultra wide-angle of 150 degrees. However, by default, it’s a 110-degree shot that you’ll enjoy in the camera app. The 150 degree mode is stored in the additional options.
This is rather a good idea, because the 150 degree mode will probably not lend itself to all situations. We see it with the city photos shared by the tester: we certainly see more things, but the distortion is obviously very present. This is largely attenuated with the classic mode at 110 degrees.
Finally, remember that the OnePlus 10 Pro should be released in Europe in the weeks or months to come.
