My big problem with the whole thing is that I have an S8+. It has been OVER 2 years now, I really like new technology and would love to buy a new phone. 90hz 1440p (compared to 60hz 1440p) and fully bezel-less (vs small chin and forehead) is a huge plus, very much want to skip the notch. I trust 1+ that the fact they chose not to pay for a rating doesn’t diminish the phone’s dustproof and waterproof qualities (though I do like that I can take my S8+ into the bath/shower, so I’d probably want to see some KZbin videos proving just how waterproof this thing is). It appears I won’t get 1UI at this rate so I’d say OxygenOS is comparable to my Samsung Android skin. Based on some of the tradein prices OnePlus offers I might get ~$200, so this would be a $460 upgrade, essentially just to trade 30hz on the screen for my headphone jack. No Thanks.

I don't get why lots of people, even many Android users themselves fail to recognize brands like OnePlus, or the Essential phone, etc.... I could imagine though that, at the time these were kind of niche or "cheap" products that were lesser than standard. Of course not being a brand name, that was expected. But now, I could add brands like OnePlus, Huawei, or even OPPO into the whole mix because their quality has now been up to that standard, that those people who buy brand name products expect. Of course being that they do not have the same resources and experience in the industry, but again, they now should be considered by these people as actual good choices.

Honestly, this is the perfect phone for me. I’ve survived using a 6s for four years, so I can deal with no wireless charging and water protection. No headphone jack? I haven’t used headphones at all (including bluetooth) for months aside from the headset on my PC. Motorized and not durable selfie camera? I’ve used my front facing camera about three times since I got the iPhone 6s.

I have the Oneplus 3T since 3 years now. Latest OS version, very stable and smooth. But the amount of upgraded tech that OP 7 pro brings is crazy. I held the phone in my hand yesterday and I was blown. Yes, after trying the iPhone 11 pro max and Note 10+, I can confidently say this is a better display.

You can easily make ANY Android phone feel more snappy by speeding up or turning off the animations. First, you need to enable the Developer options menu by tapping 'Build number' 7 times in the Settings. Next, in the Developer settings, you can adjust these values: - Window Animation scale - Transition Animation Scale - Animator Animation Scale I personally set these all to 0.5x, this means all animations are twice as fast, and my phone feels much snappier.

I never really got how wireless charging is better than a cable (not just a gimmick)? You have to have a wireless pad that is plugged into a power socket and then put your phone on top of it.. how is that more efficient or different than connecting a cable that's plugged into a power socket, which is much faster at charging anyways. With a cable (especially if you buy a long one) you can happily still hold and use your phone as normal whilst still charging it.. On a wireless pad you have to leave it on top of the pad the entire time... Such a gimmick

[@emmnuelj6136]

Agreed, I don't know why that's a deal breaker for many people.

[@matthewbitter532]

nobody said it was better...it's just nice to have. considering that the phone has a glass back and that the wireless charging coil doesn't add much to the cost, it doesn't make sense that they don't having...plus, thats an area where they could innovate on to make it as fast as wired charging

[@yattasuccess9212]

Personally, the only reason how I needed wireless charging was longevity. My Samsung S6's charging port has official died/has been broken, We had it replaced, still broken. I can't just keep on replacing it for it to break with the motherboard inside, so luckily it has Wireless charging. And therefore that's what I used. But obviously, that's not a valid reason and just a sort of, other way to charge. Because my use case is completely not the goal of Wireless charging at least in most peoples eyes'. Personally I would think that it's because of the convenience, of just plopping down your phone somewhere and it charges without you having to care about it dropping and breaking a cable, or not having to worry about it at all. Though I think those are very slim reasons to really need wireless charging support. Wired is also generally faster on most of these devices, and you can use Data transfer. I just don't see the benefit of Wireless besides the perceived "convenience" of it, of being just nice to have. But again, it would be nice to have, as Matthew Bitter already said, if the Phone already has a glass back or a ceramic back, the wireless charging coil doesn't cost that much already. Personally it's not a dealbreaker for me, it's more-important for me to have super fast wireless charging. The only reason I'd want Wireless charging is if I wanted a sort of redundancy for the way to charge, but that's a really far-off usage of the wireless charging feature, and I'm fine without it.

These phone reviews are targeted at a wide audience and judging the stock experience is the only option for comparing android devices. You can tweak everything, but where do you draw the line?

They want you to get a new phone every year if possible, usually every two years. That's why they have 24 month plans and they seal the batteries so when the capacity eventually shrinks after 10 months, you either have to pay to get it fixed (or risk the repair itself) or wait to get a new phone

[@Lamoraa69]

Still the best phone produced during the last 5 years. Progress that has been made since the Oneplus 7 pro are som tiny that they are barely noticeable. Adding to this that the phone doesn't have a notch or punch out just makes it bettet than the rest in terms of privacy and immersion. One has to ask, what incentive do I, being tech savvy and privacy oriented, have to upgrade? I see no reason! This just is the best phone so far. Only possible future competitor might turn out to be "Nothing" but we'll see if they manage to deliver on their hype.

Wireless charging isn't really that good though? Plugging it in is faster and takes just as much effort? And you don't have to worry about where you put your phone. Want to move your phone charging on the table? Just move it to the chair. The charging pads keep your phone in place so you can't use it while you charge either. And yet you decide not to harp on the no headphone jack which provides backwards compatibility to most if not all audio devices.

In developer settings you're able to turn off animations or make them faster. 1x, 0.5x and none are options to choose from. All Android phones default to 1x. Which means it's not at top speed, because the animations are slower (smoother). I'd like to see if OnePlus defaults to 1x as all other phones do. I use my Honor 10 on 0.5x and it's just about the same.
