I mean, last year they had basically the same phone except for the CPU upgrade for $450, will they really charge more than $300 more just for the change in chipset?
remember oneplus commenting that a straight 4g to 5g conversion is about $150 to 200 even when the 4g is already 855. Add in the glass back and better camera, and it easily comes to 300.
There should still be flagships with the 3.5mm jack next year, which could hold out for 2-3 years, by then there might be some actual flagship solutions (se846, ue reference grade) on the BT side.

Utterly ridiculous how the 6GB RAM version has a microSD slot but the 8GB version doesn't. How do you justify that?igavus - Thursday, September 5, 2019 - link
