How to root OnePlus 8 with Magisk [Easy method]

OnePlus 8 is much affordable than OnePlus 8 Pro and thanks to its competitive pricing and great specs, it is one of the fastest Android devices you can buy right now with a few trade-offs like Wireless charging and a Full HD display instead of a QHD one. And to Unlock its true potential, you can root it to use more advanced features like Magisk modules. OnePlus also makes it easy to root their device and in this post, you will see a Step by step guide to Root OnePlus 8. This method needs no Custom Recovery like TWRP, instead, we will be flashing Magisk patched boot image using Fastboot that needs an Unlocked Bootloader and a PC or Mac.

An Android Enthusiast is well aware of rooting and its benefits that put Android on the bright sight against its rival iOS. Rooting is simply unlocking the root-level access, so you can modify the system files that are not accessible without root access. And with John Wu’s Magisk, you can root the device systemlessly and also install all the Magisk Modules systemlessly. “Systemlessly” does not modify the /system files that mean it does not trip the Safety net.

Speaking of OnePlus 8, it was released in April 2020 along with the 8 Pro. It is powered by the Qualcomm SM8250 Snapdragon 865 chipset along with Adreno 650. It comes in two variants: 128GB 8GB RAM, 256GB 12GB RAM. The display is 6.55 inches Fluid AMOLED panel with a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. Coming to the cameras, the backside houses 4 cameras setup of primary 48 MP lens accompanied by ultrawide and macro sensors. It is fueled by a 4300 mAh battery with 30W fast charging.
