So I've Received my oneplus 3T today in the mail. Curious about the specs I installed Geekbench 4.
To Discover my OP3T has a snapdragon 820 inside clocked at 2.19 Ghz instead of a snapdragon 821???
Am I going insane or is this a Huge fU up on oneplus their end? I already own a OP3 So why pay more for same specs!?
It feels like I've actually been scammed.
FYI: Yes I've purchased it from their official website OnePlus.net

I'm pretty sure I read that It's because the model number is the same as the op3, and the app uses this model number to look up the spec list, which pulls the 3 and not the 3t since it existed prior to the 3t release.
This has been brought up before a few times on the Oneplus reddit.
Mine also reports correctly as an 821 on Aida64 and CPUZ.
use aida64
Both the SD 820 and 821 share the msm8996 model designation so that may be where the chip detection is not accurate.
3.5.4 is only for the 3T, so you have a 3T.
Those apps work from a database and not reading the actual components. As the 3T is also A3003, those apps "think", it is a 3, but it's not.
What display Panel ID is AIDA64 showing for you guys? Is it the same Samsung s6e3fa3 from the OP3 or is it the s6e3fa5?
Same for battery... Some apps show 3000 (from database), others 3400 (from reading system). AIDA shows both
how's the brightness? I saw 3 and it was very dim even on max brightness. I was hoping it will be better in 5, but looks that didn't happen...
Hello.. pixel in my country costs 1200$+- !!
While - HTC 10, G5, S7 and 3t are 550$+-
Now I don't think I want S7 because no USB-C and because I had the 3t I switched all my chargers to USB-C
The G5 brand is LG and they have many problems in all their phones (Bootlops and battery become bad after year of use and such) so I don't think I want it either...
The 3t has almost no insurance in my country because it's not a "known" company so support will be difficult to get.. (same goes for xiaomi and such)
And HTC.................... The "10" is all I'm left with and I'm really not sure if I want it... But it's all I consider now.. what do you think??
I want a
9+/10 camera
8+/10 battery
7.5+/10 display
7+/10 performance
And 6+/10 build quality
What phone do you think will suit me the most?
HTC Ultra??? I'm sorry you got a defective device man! That's what happened to me with the ZTE AXON 7 I returned it and blamed the company. Shouldn't do that

Id just say stick with the 3t. The latest 4.1 update is nice, everything is faster and better feeling. Run with FreedomOS. Nice simple debloater installer. No real reason not to use a OnePlus device in 2017. Its so affordable and good it just feels like a nice phone that will last a long while.
If you are yearning for an expensive phone then go for the Huawei Mate 9. Its got machine learning built in so it will achieve all your points once it figures you out.
If you really need a new phone instead of the 3t, I would recommend the Honor 8, sure the Honor 8 isn't as great as the 3t, but in many places you can find it even cheaper than the 3t and it's almost as fast as the 3t!
I never owned a OnePlus or Xiaomi phone before. Im currently rocking a Galaxy S7 but it got very slow and battery life sucks.
Which one should I get? How long do OnePlus/Xiaomi support their devices with Android updates?
pros for Xiaomi Mi 8:
- better screen (non-pentile matrix, HDR, 600 nits)
- probably better camera (dxomark score)
- cheaper than OP6 (~100 USD cheaper with import taxes etc.)
pros for OP6:
- probably faster UI/navigation speed
- smaller notch
- almost stock Android
- headphone jack (but not important to me)
If you have more arguments for OP6 or the Mi 8, please comment.
Looking to buy in the next 2 months.
I would say, if the Mi 8 got USB 3.1 support that is the device I will choose (op6 does not).
And for the OS I don't worry too much, since i'll flash them anyway
I have most of the oneplus devices, but the biggest bummer of them all is no USB 3.1 support.
Mi 8 got IMX363 Camera sensor with 1.8 aperture and 1.4um pixel size which have the same spec as Pixel 2 camera. I think it would have better Google Camera Mod potential than Oneplus 6.
Oneplus 6 got GCam support too, but as it got a smaller pixel size sensor, I think the image quality will not as good as Mi 8 when they both running GCam Mod.
Better camera, better screen, 20 times better front camera, better gps, better speaker (OP6 is unreal bad/can't be better) and cheaper.

Slightly off topic here... But what's the difference between a non-pentile and a pentile matrix?
@mariogrip
why is that so important ? I only plug my phone to USB when I need to charge it.
@Klanac89
Have you heard the OP6 speaker in person? Does the Mi 8 have dual speakers? Maybe there will be a soundmod in the future to support dualmod speakers.
@TheInfiniteAndroid
you should read this article on XDA: https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6-display-analysis-compared-oneplus-5t/
It does not matter because my 100 and 200€ devices have much better sound than the OP6. In other word you will think "wtf is this" and "there is nomwqy to find cheaper speakers". I was really shocked.

Agree. I returned my Oneplus 6 because of the speaker too. Comparing with my Mate 10, it is just unacceptable.
Volume is way too low, if you push all the way up the volume, it is still not loud enough and the sound starting to distort too.
Vibration is weak too, combine with low volume speaker means lots of miss call.
Xiaomi wins.
Disadvantages OP6:
- Weak Speaker (Mi 8 speakers haven't been tested but are hopefully good in sacrifice of the HP-Jack)
- VoLTE not everywhere in world
- Reported bad telephone quality (maybe SW-Update will help)
Only advantage of the OP6 is the smaller notch.
The phones are pretty similiar, but Xiaomi is a bit better and compensates the weaknesses of the OP.

As you have had a OnePlus 6.
May I ask, rumour has it Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 will come in September. I'm thinking of getting that Vs OP 6 Vs OP 6T.
What are your thoughts, if you would be so kind ?

I have no idea about MIX 3 as we have very limited information at the moment.
If it got similar design as the previous model, I think I would not pick the MIX as I don't want to turn my phone up side down every time I try to take a selfie.
Every MIX series phone got very poor front camera quality too.

Ok thanks. Shall wait and see.
@SlyUK Dude, nobody knows anything about Mix 3 or OP6T. So nobody knows how good/bad value they will be. What do u expect as an answer here? Maybe they're both **** and the Lenovo Z5 will be a gamechanger till then... nobody knows.

I was going on the basis (or calibre) of the pre existing Mi Mix 2S and OnePlus 6.
Edit:
In hindsight, silly question until both unveiled.
@lieblingsbesuch With reference to the Lenovo Z5 that you mentioned above:
https://www.androidauthority.com/lenovo-z5-872646/
Xiaomi will release kernel source code for MI8 next year... maybe. Before that i can't recommend anyone to buy that device.

How exactly is the Lenovo Z5 a game changer?
Snapdragon 636
64GB storage
6GB RAM
3,300mah battery
Notch
Seems like a typical 2018 device tbh...
Dude, this was an example to emphasize that it's not useful to speculate about any phone that has not been unveiled yet. Never said this Lenovo thingy will be a game changer. Please read twice before you.

Hello guys ,
So i was currently thinking of upgrading my oneplus 3
But i couldn't settle on a certain phone , the only 2 phones in my mind would be the oneplus 7 pro and Samsung galaxy s10 plus since both cost the same where i live , let me know what you think guys
I am going to wait for the Pixel 4 and then make a decision..
I would choose the 7 Pro over the S10 Plus for its VFM and screen!
The s10's price is diving so you may be able to pick up a bargain. Depends on your criteria.
Sent from my GM1913 using Tapatalk
Currently using the 3T and will be upgrading to the s10 plus. I'm just waiting for the price of the s10 plus to dip a bit further down. Personally I think the s10 plus is more equipped with features and well rounded.

Ordered the Oneplus 7 pro (Almond colour) 8/256, will arrive tomorrow. Very excited.
But will still keep my OP3 with me for as long as it lives.

The S10 plus is a really great phone but i keep getting pulled away due to the below points
1. Touch wiz and the history of updates
2. Developer community always better on one plus devices
3. The notchless screen on the oneplus 7 pro makes it look much appealing the s10 plus screen .

Congrats , let us know what you think when you receive it
I get your point. Samsung is refining oneui to bring it closer to stock android and is increasing update supports for it's flagships, according to latest reports and that's good enough for me.
Oneplus phones surely has more community support, but nowadays phones with stock roms has got so much better that the idea of installing custom roms is becoming less tempting.
The 7 Pro may look more appealing because of it's all screen design, but I still have some reservations about the pop up camera with regards to how long it will remain functional as a moving part.
I'm not trying to convince you as to why the s10 plus is a better phone then the 7 Pro because both phones are great in their own way, I'm just sharing my personal reason why I'm going to get the s10 plus as my next phone.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk
Personally I'm keeping my op3 as long as it's working and not struggling with doing anything. However of it were to die tomorrow I'd be looking at he op7 pro, the Xiaomi black shark 2, or the oppo Reno 10x zoom
Take a look at Xiaomi Mi 9
Zenfone 6 since it will officially receive lineage os. I don't like the size of the phone and just 18W charging but it has the greatest battery life.
If the s10e becomes cheaper and receives lineage os, I'll gladly opt for it.
Wait for the Pixel 4

The pixel devices are always highly priced
I'm looking for a mate 20 pro, I'm waiting for huawei/trump fight to end (I don't want to buy a phone that is not going to have android Q).
Also I'm a little bit annoyed to not be able to unlock bootloader.
But mate 20 pro is what I want, great camera and battery

You have the budget for the S10, so I don't see why you can't buy the Pixel
Right now in India, the smaller pixel 3 is priced lower than the s10. I don't know how much it is in your country.
Pretty sure the smaller pixel 4 variant will be around the same price range.
I sure as hell won't buy a device with a notch and no headphone jack. I am at minority here but those are my requirements for now.
Redmi K20 Pro and Zenfone 6Z are top contenders for my money (I don't want to go back to IPS LCD but might have to). OnePlus phones are naturally out because they decided to "follow trend" and removed headphone jack. OP3 is working fine for my usage and i don't need the best camera, an average camera will do for me so no appeal of Pixel 4 to me at all. So for now, yeah, not many options, K20 pro is choice 1, zenfone 6z being 2nd.
I'm thinking about OP6 as it's the last OP with headphone Jack and notification LED. I know the notch isn't great but for me, small notch + OLED > LCD.
OP7, not the pro version because I definitely do not want a phone with moving parts. No Samsung, I have nothing with the brand...
But as others said before, will keep using my OP3T as long as possible. Fast, two days of battery life, great camera and straight forward; still did not find a good reason for making a switch. ..
I'd buy an iPhone, currently using oneplus 3, lasted for 2years. Still snappy with good battery backup.
What would you choose if they were both the same price? The OnePlus 7T has so many good new features and Oxygen OS

having had 2 phones with oxygen os on it, i dont know what all the fuss is about. Samsung phones arent without fault, but i feel that their faults get addressed far quicker than any other mfg not including apple. I like having the phone that sticks out from the crowd too, so i see that draw, but the S10 just seems that it will be better supported and have an overall better end user experience
I own the 7 Pro and the Ceramic S10... My Ceramic S10 is dusty...

Water resistant, Wireless/Reverse Charging and better cameras.
To be honest I am not a fan of Oxygen OS, I find to be an outdated polished mess. There are so many devices out there now that are much less than both of them I don't really find either of the devices worth the price. I have a Samsung S10+ now, this is my first Samsung again in years and I think it will be my last.
oneplus,
CPU
exynos power consumption is not as good as snapdragon, but all snapdragon versions are locked in USA and you cannot unlock bootloader.
BOOTLOADER
So you have to pay *00 $ for a phone and still you MUST WATCH ADS and dont forget that all preinstalled bloatware and spyware software are also running in a background .
Honestly this is the destiny the only idiot will choose.
OS
This is Samsung... i have an iphone 6 as my second mobile phone, 5 years in a row it receives SW updates instantly, when it became available.
Samsung S8 has been released 2 years ago and it will not get Android Q at all.
The first beta version of the Android 9 has been released in March 2018. S8 got the first beta version in Feb 2019 ONE YEAR LATER !!!! The same will happen with s10 eventually.
QUALITY
Just try to recall: Batteries which explode , faulty screens, insecure fingerprint scanners.

Actually yes. I returned my op 7t last week.
This device flies. It's the smoothest device on the marked, bjt software is very buggy and the majority of panels suffer of green/pink tint issue. This unevenness is especially visible with lowest brightness on. I also didn't find camera decent. It's mediocre, worse than the one on my old p20 pro.
