Friends don’t let friends buy OnePlus, but you’re not my friends so knock yourselves out.
The 6 was a beautiful phone, and IMO their last good phone. It lasted me up until this year, and to be honest, my new Pixel is missing features that I love from OP, like the screen gestures for skipping songs.
I wouldn’t trust them with another purchase again, though. I loved the 1 and 6, but never again.
Why not? I had a OnePlus One back in the day and I quite liked it. What happened since to taint its reputation?
It’s basically an OPPO clone now. Oxygen OS is effectively ColorOS re-marketed. Unless you’re chill with Chinese phones and software I would stay far far away.
Even back then OnePlus was sketch as hell. Remember their “ladies, take a pretty selfie and win an OnePlus” campaign?
The great Iphonization of the OS is my main issue.
It was supposed to be classic Android with a few extra features on top of it.
I had a OnePlus 3 and a OnePlus 7t I know I will not continue on OP.
I was buying this brand mostly for the vanilla like android. These days are over.
I’ll give FairPhone a go I think for the next device.
As someone that used to love OnePlus, what’s the more recent equivalent?
I felt like around the 3 or so, I could get a flagship-ish phone for a reasonable price. Is there anything like that now?
4/5 stars
The OnePlus Open brings what might be the best hardware on a foldable phone and enough clever software tricks to turn heads. It pairs top-end internals with some of OPPO’s careful trial-and-error to create a debut foldable phone that hardly feels like a first attempt. Add in a competitive asking price, and the OnePlus Open just might give other foldables a run for their money.
