B&H Photo has the OnePlus 8 IN2015 128GB 5G UW Smartphone (Verizon Unlocked, Onyx Black) on sale for $499. That's a saving of $200 from the regular price.
Unfortunately, it looks like it's out of stock but it can still be ordered at this price.

Basically, "outside and nearby" is when you'll see those high speeds.
Something that wasn't mentioned: I believe if you use a case with this phone, you can't just buy one that fits the OnePlus 8. It has to be one that fits this exact model.

high frequency (eg: Verizon mmWave 5G network) = faster speed and shorter distance/range and signal can't penetrate obstacles
low/mid band frequency (eg. T-Mobile sub-6 5G network) = slower speed but farther distance/range and signal has no problem penetrating obstacles like walls, trees, buildings.
Think of your WiFi network, 2.4GHz and 5GHz. The 2.4GHz is slower but coverage is a lot better than 5GHz.

However if the Verizon mmWave network was transmitted at a higher power than sub 6, one could argue that it would penetrate walls and distance just as well as sub 6.
