Hello everyone. I have the possibility to pass from an OnePlus 6T to Xiaomi Mi9T Pro without giving additional money (I bought it on Amazon, but I'm still in 30 days of refund period). According to your opinion, is this passage worth?
Only things I regret of my OP6T are the lack of the wide angle camera and the presence of the notch. Thanks for your advices

If you you know how to get rid of all the spyware (by flashing EU ROM or AOSP ) then yes. absolutely.
I sold my OnePlus 7plus for this and haven't looked back.
Depends what you're after but I find this perfect for me and suits all my needs

I think that in Italy will be sold directly with EU ROM, but anyway, it's not a problem for me flashing a phone. Thank you

Sorry for stupid question. I'm in italy also and I'm not sure if to buy this or no. Those roms here that are K20 PRO, are valid for 9T PRO also? They are the same phone by chance? Why the naming confusion tho'

K20 pro is for China only and for global they named it Mi9T Pro

True, but software is compatible since hardware is exactly the same. Chinese phone has less LTE bands, thats all.
ROMs for K20 pro can be installed on mi 9t pro and vice versa. thats why it says k20 pro / mi 9t pro in forum thread name
I Wouldn't recommend. OnePlus 6t is a pretty good phone on its own right.

Wow, that's surprising. I have K20 pro, and a OnePlus 7 for my wife. As far as I see the Dual speakers alone are worth the higher price.. The OnePlus 7 speakers absolutely cream my K20PRO speaker in all sense.. Not that I don't love my K20pro. But hearing the YouTube or Netflix on 7 is really awesome...
But screen is about even.

I have both the k20 pro an the OP7 Pro. If you are willing to compromise and want to cut cost the k20 pro is a good choice. The OP 7 pro did cost me about £150-200 more and the difference is visible. The 90hz screen for me takes everything. I even used a 75hz mod for the k20 pro which made a gap slimmer but I still wouldn't sell my OP over the k20 pro. Not sure about the 6T sorry, I didn't have that, but for me the SDG855 performance difference was enough to change.
I have the 6T and have been looking at the 9T for a while,only thing holding me back is OxygenOS and getting fast frequent updates with Android 10 coming ,
Mi 9T has more features in the software so am torn between the two. Would probably enjoy the cameras on the 9T better and bigger battery, notchless display.
It's a difficult one alright

Nah 9t pro is cheaper. I'm talking about european price. (about 100€)
Compared to standard oneplus 7 its better. First it's cheaper, the camera is better in my eyes and battery is also bigger. It's notchless but it depends on what you like.
First i thought about buying the OnePlus 7 pro, but it's too big for me and I don't like the curved display.
I also thought the "elevator" camera is a con, but I try it now.
Mi 9T Pro is the better OnePlus 7 pro for me. I don't care about 90hz display.
Custom rom support is very bad with Standard OP7 so for some people it's also a con.

I'm on the fence about the Mi 9T Pro and the OP 7 Pro. I think the device doesn't justify the price for the OP, I think that for that price it's missing wireless charging at least.
I just can't decide. The headphone output is kinda important, so is the screen. I'm torn about this two devices. Without screen/headphone jack which one would you choose just by build quality and overall performance?
Updates are very important too, which one has better community and dev support?

Not sure about the custom firmware support for the OP 7Pro. The factory firmware is good enough in my eyes didn't even think about flashing another firmware on it. I guess you can check the support yourself here on XDA if its important for you. The cons I found with the OP is:
- Its larger then the k20 pro and heavier as well, with small hand you would need to get use to it
- It has a curved screen which I'm also not a fan of - hard to find proper screen protection, the only one worked for me was the film
- Battery usage is a bit behind than the k20 pro even the size should be the same on paper - could be due to the 90hz screen (I tried to switch it off but didn't make much difference). Still last me a day and a half easy though.
I think on software update Oneplus would provide more frequent updates for the 7pro (I had 5-6 updates since I have the phone). I had a poco f1 before and xiaomi only gave 1 update in every month or 2 months. As the phone reached the 1 year mark the updates came less frequent...
Apart of the above I think its is snappier and a better build then the k20 pro. I bought mine sort of 2nd hand not brand new (the k20 pro was also 2nd hand) I wouldn't pay the full price for the OP 7pro.
I think which ever phone you would chose you won't be disappointed. The k20 pro is also a good device.
Most of the above is my subjective opinion, people are different and others may find things more important which aren't much for me. GL for your purchase

Thank you, I really appreciate that you took some time to answer. I can get the 6/128 version for 600 usd including warp charger, I still feel it is a lot. And I'm kinda doubtful about the build quality of the Mi 9t Pro.
Is 600 usd a good price and is the warp charger really that useful?

Any regrets moving to MIUI or did you keep the 6T ?

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

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.
Hi everyone,
I want to buy a smartphone - but stuck between Op 7 or K20 pro ? Can't make my mind - which one should I buy ?
Any suggestion/ advice will be highly appreciated.
They are pretty similar. Run on the same platform, CPU, GPU. Both AMOLED, same resolution.
The K20pro / 9Tpro has an audio jack, OP7 does not.
OP7 has stereo speakers, K20p/9Tp does not.
The K20pro / 9Tpro has FM radio, OP7 does not.
I believe the OP7 has OIS on the main camera, K20pro/9Tpro does not.
The OP7 has a (small) notch in the screen. The K20pro/9Tpro has a popup front facing camera.
K20pro/9Tpro has a somewhat bigger battery.
For me personally, the popup cam is not a problem because I don't use face-unlock or take selfies, and having a full notch-less display is very nice.
I imagine that if you're the kind of person that uses the front facing camera a lot, the popup camera becomes annoying pretty fast. (but I don't know because I'm not that person)
FM radio is a feature I really like to have, but I'm probably alone in that one.

Thanks mate for your detailed comparison .
I don't use face-unlock and selfies like you. So it 'll not be any issue for me. Though I don't like Pop-Up camera. But I really like stereo speakers.
BTW, how's the battery life of K20 pro ?
OP7 has almost no development - unlike the K 20 Pro.
But I really don't like the bootloader unlocking procedure of Xiaomi. It's really annoying (really)to me.
Would you throw some lights on the multi-media experiences of K20 Pro - 3.5 mm audio quality, watching video/movie experience etc.? Really it's very important to me.
Which one would be better for multi-media between these two ?
Thank you once again for your reply.
K20 Pro has a HiFi DAC built-in. It's 24 bits / 192 KHz.
So it has the ability to play High Definition audio.
You don't really need to unlock the bootloader unless you really need root for something or actually want to change ROMs.
I used the Xiaomi ADB/Fastboot tool to disable apps that I don't use. MIUI isn't that bad, for now at least.
I was confused about that last few days, finally bought k20 pro, for 3.5 mm audio jack and price difference. audio, movies and camera are great.

I am probably not the best judge. I don't have an OP7, have only used this device (European 9Tpro) for under 2 weeks now and my previous phone was almost 5 years old. To me, watching video on the notch-less OLED and listening through simple wired earphones is very good.
Battery life is good. In normal day to day use when I'm not traveling, I can charge it every 2 days. In heavy use it will still last a full day easy. I have everything on all the time (wifi, sync, location, bluetooth, ambient display).
I plan to keep mine stock and locked for at least the first month, but yes from what I read on these forums, unlocking and flashing is more cumbersome and has more pitfalls than I'm used to from HTC devices.
My previous phone was OP7.
k20pro 256gb + 27watt charger costs less than Op7. So price wise this is a win.
Face unlock is a breeze in Op7. Miss that comfort on k20 pro. Though always on fingerprint is good & serves the purpose.
4000 mah battery & miui battery management works wonders. Always end up with 30+ at the end of the day. On Op7, it would be about less than 20% by the end of the day.
Oxygen os is really clean. But it lacks serious customisation. Miui is eyecandy & won't get boring. This is probably the only factor for me to switch from op7.
Also, since op7 was just a minor upgrade from 6T, better to wait for Op7t (with 90hz).
But beware of your purchase now, the price of K20PRO will see drop Faster than op7 in very short period of time. (Already price cut of Rs 2000 announced in India (flipkart))
U should also check the asus rog 2 if u are not bothered by large bezels

Thanks for sharing the most important feature - audio quality of K20 Pro.
What's your feedback about the headphone audio quality of K20 Pro?
Is it really awesome or average ?
I like to use rooted device. And that's why I don't like Xiaomi for their bootloader unlocking policy.
Appreciate your ADB/Fastboot procedure for deblauting.
BTW, I had some bad experiences with RN7 Pro - MTP incompatibility. My Windows PC can't recognized RN7 Pro and can't install the drivers. And finally I'd to sale RN7 Pro due to this issue. Is there any MTP/ Driver issue with K20 Pro ?
:good:
if op7 has no notch i would have gotten it to try this oxygen os ,coming from pocophone which is mine spare phone now ,glad i dont to face with a notch all day , to me op7 just look like a 6t , by the way i have no issue connecting mine pc (win 7) to k20 pro
Yes, i really am enjoying the k20 pro. Yesterday, the android 10 OTA was received. So that also is covered.
And miui 11 is on the way by end of the year.
Btw, if u are looking for Op7T for the 90hz display, K20PRO can also reach around 80hz thru mods. Both are 1080 oled panels.
On a related note, asus rog 2 has got some Insane specs for a sweet price (128/8 ) Rs 38k.
K20pro is going to be sold for less then 24999 during the sale season... That's a huge price drop for such a new device and it's cheating for those who bought this device from the start.....

Nope Max drop will be ₹3500 if you are taking into account the initial ₹2000 into account. Even in current sale a minimum card discount is going to be there for atleast ₹1500. As a loyalist I feel that companies should atleast hold onto their prices for 6 months man. If you ever want to resell your device within this timefram now you will face a huge challenge trying to resell. Not that I would be doing that. Its about percieved difference of going from Base bottom Budget Brand to a Premium Brand... They went back to being a budget only Brand with this move. Thats really Bad. I would gladly buy their Premium range of Phones of the Mi Series(I owned a MI3 and Mi5) But they don't release them here in India anymore..
If a Brand wants to induce a loyalty in its customer base they should be prepared to be loyal in return. This doesnt feel like loyalty..

I'm on a OnePlus 5T (128gb) and support runs out for this phone in the next months.
Is there anyone who switched from 5T to the Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro and can give an advice? Any suggestions?
Size is close, specs are close. 9T has better camera and bigger battery. Also it's possible to get it with 256GB/8GB ram.

I switched from the OP6 to the Mi 9T Pro and i'm really happy with the decision. There are two points to consider, though:
- the 9T Pro is considerably thicker
- oxygenOS is much better/faster/flexible/cleaner than MiUI.

Yup it's definitely worth it. And pick the 8GB 128/256GB if it's available your region.
Also installing a custom rom will not lose its warranty. I find it amazing! If you don't like MIUI you can just install a custom rom right away

Is there anyone who switched from 5T to the Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro and can give an advice? Any suggestions?
Size is close, specs are close. 9T has better camera and bigger battery. Also it's possible to get it with 256GB/8GB ram.

I don't think it's worth it. I came from a Galaxy Note 5 2015 and there's a lot of downsides compared to it. The screen on the k20 Pro is very thin and feels like a downgrade. The pixels are less sharp and you can see the dots quite easily. Battery life is okay, 1-2 days with heavy usage. It's quite a weighty phone, hard to hold in one hand. The miui 10 rom lacks a lot of nice features miui 11 has, but currently miui 11 for it is really buggy. (Occasionally reboots, youtube background playback glitches, camera app often stops working).
I think you'll want to go for a bigger screen with higher hz if you want to really upgrade.
I'm also on OP 5T, planning to switch to the 9T as soon as the LineageOS 17 ROM is in good shape.
At first it will feel like a downgrade, I own an OP3 previously. I'd still pick my OP3 over my K20 pro if the OP3 didn't have ridiculous bezels.

If both are running the same ROM, how can it possibly feel like a downgrade if the hardware is superior in every possible way?
From my experience, better camera and battery life, but I miss Oxygen...
The upgrade is not too much...

There will never be a "BOTH" running OOS bug-free, it will never be the same experience. Spec-wise definitely an upgrade over my OP3, but OOS is what made me say it's a so-so experience. You'll never understand what I'm saying if you've never used your device with OOS extensively for more than 3 years.
Don't let anyone fool you with an essay, if it's between OP5T and 9T Pro there's no match lol, one is 2 years old with old chip while the other runs a 2019 flagships processor.

I understand what you are SAYING, but I will never understand how you are FEELING or why, because I will never use any OS other than LineageOS, and I have 4 devices, 2 phones and 2 tablets, the experience is pretty much the same on the software side.
I switched from 5T to mi9 t pro when it came out. Mi9t pro is obviuosly much faster with better battery life than 5T and better for gaming becuse of the chip etc but in terms of custom roms it is still pretty lacking in comparison to the 5T custom roms which work perfectly but that might have to do with the age of the 5T which has had developers working on it for a long time now. Hope it helps.

I came from a oneplus 6 to k20 pro. And I am still regretting the decision to switch. I would still happily go back to my oneplus 6 any day. And the sole reason being the software.
Oneplus software is way better than MIUI. I unlocked the bootloader and installed pixel experience. Which was fine in relative terms. Unlocking the bootloader created a few problems like breaking Google pay (India) and other UPI payment apps.
There were errors like google camera not functioning properly. The fingerprint sensor straight up sucks on most of the custom roms. Roms have somehow broken the proximity sensor for me during calls. and there are similar issues for almost everyone.
I would humbly suggest you stick with something stock. Or if you can live with MIUI then it's whole another set of arguments to be made. But considering you've used oxygen OS for around 2 years, it's likely you won't like MIUI at all.
ciao!
If you are into gaming and especially emulators then its a no brainer. When using Dolphin my 5T struggled to maintain 60fps whereas 9T has no problems whatsoever.
P.s MiUi is not as bad as some people here make it sound like, give it a try you might like it
Thank you all for your opinions!
I ordered a 9T Pro 8GB/256GB today and will see if it fits. If not, it's always possible to sell it for a good price or maybe even send it back.
I see that people have different opinions on it, that comes from their different habits.
The specs are great and i think the phone can compete with flagships - with this price definitely (buy two of these or one from OnePlus?! ). Software is a thing that can be changed by custom roms and i think i will try MIUI, Lineage, PE and the Oxygen GSI on it and see what's best for me.

Hey there!
Alright, so, I was deciding between the Asus ROG Phone 2 and the OnePlus 7T. I really wanted to take the Asus ROG2 but the guy selling it thought it was a global edition, but later found out it was a Chinese version so ofc I didn't want to take that. The second alternative was the OnePlus 7T which looks like a solid device, but at the end I just went with the Realme X2 Pro 8gb 128gb edition because of the price difference between them. The Realme X2 Pro is 480 euros here, while the OnePlus 7T is 600+ euros for the 128gb version. How are you satisfied with your X2 Pro? What do you think about my decision?

I had the same problem.
I had to choose between the new xiaomi 10, but the price was much higher than i expected, The Op7t, the realme x2pro.
I was coming froma Op3.
I took the Realme because it has the oppo company behind, and the 12/256 was at 480€ on amazon for the weekend.
It has some software issues, i hope that the next update will change a lot.
Sure the Op7t has more support from modders and everything, but we will have it too.

Well I don’t really care for the custom firmware, I always rock with the stock firmware. Are you overall happy with your choice? What is fine for you and what is bothering you?

The phone is great,you are getting so much for your money,the same as the 7T besides oxygen OS and you have saved a good bit of cash too,
A lot of flagships coming in 2020 have 90hz, ufs 3.0 ,dual speakers etc so you are getting a comparable device to most of the new phones give or take a few things,
Software at the moment on Android 9 is the major downside but for me everything works and I'm happy,March will see RealmeUI so that will be a huge boost to the device,
What I enjoy most is the 90hz,50 watt charge is very handy Dual speakers is something I never had and the battery life is good,I get a day out of 15 mins charge. Cameras are good too,best I've had though apparently if you believe what you read the cameras aren't the absolute best.
No real downside for me on this phone. Has all I need. You made a god decision !!!
Relax..And enjoy ?

I use swiftkey since the first year of release.
On this phone, its slow af.
I dont understand why it takes like 8/10 input.
I hate google Keyboard, but it works perfectly..
I thought it was the phone that lags, i switched keyboard and i can type normally now.

Yeah I had this issue too.
Solved by rebooting the phone, and it works.
Just try yourself
I currently have the oneplus 10 pro Chinese variant in emerald green. 12/256. It's a great phone but I find the cameras are very much a letdown.
I was offered to trade straight across for an xiaomi mi 11 ultra that's also 12/256.
I know it's older than the oneplus but people are telling me that it completely blows it out of the water in every possible way and that I should go for the trade.
Do any of these you have experience with this phone? I have read some reviews where some people say that it is the perfect phone and read some others where people say that it's just ok.
Should I go ahead with this trade?
Cheers
