@arsenalx7 I don't charge throughout the day. I've had 2 hours of screen on time today - mostly full HD KZbin and use of the fitbit and caliber apps, neither of which have dark modes so it was just bright white pixels. I have had it on high but not max brightness, and currently am at 91%. I do have a mostly amoled black homescreen, keyboard, and KZbin app (revanced) for those little savings.

How was the OS experience, and are there any differences to other OSes? I'm using almost-stock android on a Motorola phone, and was a little disappointed on how bare-bones it was after coming from Samsung's OneUI. (But then, a bare-bones OS does have its benefits...)

[@Gravage]

@@ctrl_x1770 It's pretty atrocious. Oneplus is doing its best to emulate iOS and in the worst possible ways. One example is that they make lockscreen notifications disappear after you have unlocked your phone, even if you don't interact with them. iOS does this, but you can still swipe up and find them, they are just hidden. OnePlus actually just removes them. It's pretty annoying and there are lots of tweaks like that to Android.

[@SouravSatvaya]

If you want iOS like UI then go for OxygenOS/ColorOS or any other Chinese UI. They basically copy whatever apple does and yes there's some good and useful features alongside bloatware. I love clean UI so I avoid those junky UI. Speaking of Moto's Hello UI there's plenty to features, don't know which features you are missing other than 'Good lock'.

[@ctrl_x1770]

@@SouravSatvaya That is a fair point, and I'm not too sure why I said I was missing a lot of features now that I think about it. One feature I do miss though, is setting ring mute on a timer. And every time I change the phone from mute to unmute, it also resets the notifications sound as well, which is annoying. But overall it's a nice upgrade, very very minor problems.

[@SouravSatvaya]

@@ctrl_x1770 Yeah, every UIs have their own unique features which lacks on other UIs. I remember one of friends who was a long time Samsung user refused to switch brand just because other UIs didn't have swipe to call and sms from the dialer. I known that was too much but yeah some features really makes it harder to switch. I also used Moto phones and after switching to other brand I missed the "chop chop to turn on flashlight" and "twist twist to turn on camera". Yes, those were the names of those feature back then.

I would love an ROG Phone but the software is what stops me. No guarnteeded long term updates (or monthly security updates) for example. In the US, not using a Pixel or Samsung is hard in terms of making it last as long as possible.

[@xuhwj11]

Your phone doesn't magically stop working if it doesn't get updates.

[@AyySorento]

@@xuhwj11 Correct, but it can get unsafe to use, just like using an old version of Windows or MacOS with no security updates. Not having the latest security patches promptly is dangerous as critical patches come out monthly. Honestly, it's something people rarely think about until they are impacted. If you want to take the risk, be my guest. Some apps may also be designed to use specific versions of Android to reduce the support needed by the developer. If a bug appears in the OS or an app, it may never be fixed. Why buy something that in two years, will become a security risk with no support when other brands/manufacturers such as Apple, Samsung, and Pixel will support their devices for 7 or more years? Other brands like OnePlus are also easier to mod and install custom ROMs on which has frequent updates when the manufacturer no longer supports them.

[@BruceLeeRoy26]

​@@xuhwj11you're also saving companies money when they don't have to buy licenses for older phones or provide any updates (you know, because that cost money to do too). Seeing as the phone is $1500, I don't see those savings being passed on to the consumers.

The battery doesn't depend on the chip only. This year they are using a new type of battery.Which allows the companies to put bigger batteries.

[@gateopssss]

The battery mostly depends on the chipset and optimization. If the chipset is bad (example Snapdragon 888) and the OS is optimized, you'll get bad battery. If the optimization on the OS is bad but the chipset is good, you'll get bad battery too. There's many things to include to expect some good SOT (screen on time) from the device, and if one fails to impress, either optimization or the chipset, you'll be disappointed.

[@andyH_England]

The SD8G4 is based on something other than the Snapdragon X-Elite, which is dated, probably early 2023 designs. It is gen-2 and will be what the X-Elite Gen-2 is based on. There are two reasons for this: the age of the ancient X-Elite and the court case between ARM and Qualcomm. If ARM wins and the SD8G4 is based on the X-Elite, it could be banned, so Qualcomm redesigned it. Of course, ARM saw this and has withdrawn their licenses to Qualcomm, which, if followed through, would mean they could still ban the SD8G4. Likely, if Qualcomm loses, they will pay the billions to ARM and apologise to save their business.

Google is doing what Apple is and cutting Qualcomm out. This stops feeding a rival and means costs can be reduced. For example, Apple pays around $50 to TSMC to make Apple Silicon, whereas OnePlus will have to pay over $150 to Qualcomm for the SD8G4. Google is hoping to be as cost-effective as Apple. Samsung has also tried this with Exynos, but to date, they have been unable to compete.

Nice to see how well the new 8 Elite chip turned out gen 3 felt a big downgrade compared to the gen 2, we finally have an excellent option again. Also happy to see large batteries, all I need now is a foldable to utilize these (hopefully the Open 2).

[@MasterOfNothin]

Samsung better release Snapdragon powered phones in Indian market instead of crappy Exynos powered. And if they don't we need to stop buying Exynos powered phones and for the same price.

[@DoozyyTV]

according to leaks they'll only use snapdragon

[@MitchellTheMitch]

Exynos yields are too low, about 20% so don't worry, Snapdragon will be available to all markets

[@cymo1397]

Im with s22+ and yes I'm not happy with exynos anymore. As I play some of heavy games, it's like I can fry egg on it. Gotta upgrade next year

[@lalnuntluangachhakchhuak5767]

And fast charging. I can't live without it now after retiring 2 onepluses

[@kirby21-xz4rx]

They will

[@sunnyx3511]

You forgot to mention that these are new silicon carbide batteries, huge improvement from the past, not just only new chipset responsible for better battery life.

[@zaqw1111]

Finally, some non-Apple coverage

[@degenerate8228]

I think improvement is due to the new battery technology silicon carbide. My honor 200 🔋 life is phenomenal !!!

[@DrDre-sy2kv]

I'm waiting for a pop-up camera 5g capable phone with dual speaker, 3.5 jack and a memory card slot. Is it too much to ask for ??? 😭😭😭😭😭

[@2_pelicans]

Yes

[@NinjaKirikoJedi]

Sony phone for your back. But will you really buy it?

[@nicknorthcutt7680]

I absolutely NEED that OnePlus 13!!!! I am so ready for OnePlus

[@RiceCubeTech]

At this rate the one plus needs to have better cameras. I owned a 7Pro and it was behind other flagships at the time. Nowadays they’re charging very close to flagship prices and still lagging behind even a pixel or iPhone from last gen. Pictures are ok for the most part but video really puts them in shambles. I loved one plus for what it was back in the day but I can’t justify spending more than $700-800 on a phone if it doesn’t outperform a last gen phone.

[@iranicus]

Still rocking my OnePlus 7 Pro which is on its way out, I do love the look of the ROG phones with the fancy LEDs. Will consider getting one though those Xiaomi Mix Flip phones look sweet too.

[@shreyasgamer12]

You wouldn't review the phones. You won't give us the benchmarks. Then why the hell are we here?

[@lopsidedwombat]

How is this the first time I've heard about the op13 having local variable refresh rate???? Also that is so freaking cool

[@Greidaon]

Stop being hyperbolic; it's THE NEXT GREATEST THING"... for about 6 months, then we'll act like this "NEXT BIGGEST..." is trash comparatively.

[@ancientflames]

Yeah that’s how technological advancements work. The weight brothers plane was the greatest thing for a bit. A few years later it was garbage.

[@hansley7307]

So excited for this one usually i don't care much about flagship battery test because for the past few years they almost the same and always the midrange and budget that preformed better in terms of battery test but this new 8 elite chipset closing the gap. Right now im using 7 gen 3 with 6k mAh i can easily last 10 hrs screen time or more with some gaming and light usage, with mobile data on and also some hotspot since i mostly use laptop to do things. I think we don't need anymore powerbank to carry since the battery life so good now and also the charging speed is fast enough, just hope there will be smaller charger that will replaced powerbank use soon

[@vulcan1449]

I would love to take a look at your aquascape back there.

[@Taxiozaurus]

Do make sure to check out devices that run on Mediatek's offering the 9400 SoC, the November devices have been have been one-upping each other left right and center.

[@quantumjunkie6161]

The OnePlus offset camera looks like a mistake when it's missing the visual "connection" to the side of the phone like the previous.

[@ZVManning]

17hr battery life out of OnePlus God damn son. This phone is going to be such a banger I really wonder why they are taking so long to bring it to America. 100w fast charge too which is crazy

[@rnbPGTV]

Is 7+G3 a good chipset?

[@vnphantom]

It's crazy to think maybe in a few years, we will have phones that will go 1 week in between charges of just normal everyday use. That would be insane!

[@AtlantaGuns]

Dave channeling his new hawk hair style from cobra Kai 😂

[@HlgMiesmuschel]

oh boy finally time for a new phone, looking at you Oneplus13.... Typing this on my OP9

[@NEOMERCER]

Save us like my favorite tech KZbinr. He's just like me fr, doesn't care about his hair, he just sets the camera up and hits record lol

[@ArthurZakaryan23]

Will be interesting to see what the NA pricing will be for the OP13 since it will likely be the cheapest device in the US with this chipset since QC is charging more for this than they did for last years chip.

[@revanthsurapaneni6258]

It's been a while since I've seen a dave2d video. They aren't being recommended enough?

[@JeremiahFestus2]

That intro 👏💪😊

[@yziquamizzle]

That battery comment on charging to 80% is quite promising. On my current S23 plus, I have been keeping the charged range between 15% and 80%. The battery degradation is significantly less than charging to full. I am projecting that I could use this phone for 9 years rather than 3 years.

[@johnbyjujb7360]

We all need to remember that it's not just the chipset that improves the battery. The ui also matters

[@this_sabby]

Dave never disappoints

[@zexieofficial]

As an iphone user that variable refresh rate is a gamechanger.hope apple implement in 17 lineup

[@jasonmelo1974]

Localized refresh rate on the screen? How is that even possible?

[@atmospheredot]

It's not only about the CPU, check the battery tech, Silicon/Carbon (Si/C), holds more power!

[@jay32kool]

We’ve been listening to “better chips=better battery life” speeches for a decade. Battery life won’t take a meaningful step forward until the actual BATTERY technology improves

[@shijou2867]

it did though, both snap elite and the new battery tech that can hold more capacity

[@zestplays]

I just bought a OnePlus 12 as a secondary phone on sale and to be honest. For $300 off normal price black friday i am pretty satisfied.

[@DrAdityaReddy]

You got it for 300 usd?

[@zestplays]

@300 discount off normal price I’m pretty sure that’s what 300 off means

[@rajsatraroxor9603]

Silicon-carbon batteries which are have high density than lithium ion batteries is the major reason for better battery life and able to fit huge capacity in similar form factor

[@dgmojojojo]

Also ROG Phone have this amazing feature where every time u charge the device it can bypass the power by not using the battery at all, adding more longevity to the battery.
