I have ask this with the seller last time and they only mentioned available input just QC 3.0 and normal charging. Never really check the leaflet inside the packaging box.

My first unit is defected on the 2nd last blink light that turn off within a very short time and the last blink light stayed on longer time which cannot provide me the good indication of how many juice left. Got a replacement unit for that tho.

However, they will launch a 20k mah version soon enough.

that what happen to me, i charge with QC3.0 it suppose to show me yellow light and blink but instead i only got white LED light then 10-15min into charging. The power bank total stop charging, LED was not even lit up or blinking. i tried with normal charging and it also did the same thing...

So i did a voltage measure on the power bank, initial it charge with 5v / 2a then few second later, it drop to 5v /0.2a then drop to 5v / 0a. Guess i had to return the defective power bank

It was from Lelong, but I went and contacted the shop selling directly and COD (shop was in Plaza Pudu, CMN Mobile). Not sure if they still even have stocks though, TBH that VOOC PB has been around for a while now actually lol, I'm not surprised if it's actually already discontinued.

Any fellow faces battery drain during the night? I noticed that 8 hours would drained 8-10% with WiFi, Bluetooth and everything off. In comparison to the 1st update which only drained about 4%.

Did you try with Airplane Mode on?

Probably yes for Super VOOC, considering OP already trademarked "Warp Charge". Although you have to wonder if there will be backwards compatibility with "normal" Dash.

Also, 6T might have an in-display FPS, which might (or like the Nex S, might not) work for "secure" apps like M2U.

Other that those two considerations, it's pretty safe to say that 6T is probably worth waiting for... And at the very least there will probably be a slight bump down in 6 prices for whatever stocks that remains by then as well, IF the 6 turns out to not be your cuppa tea.

Hmm, funky. I'd think the 6k would have these types of issues TBH due to the missing 3 bands (and stuff), though I've yet to encounter them myself...

... not that I'm using both SIM slots pun.

Celcom also?

Maybe pricing wise. Features wise it's far too late to add anything in direct response to the PocoPoco (like a big ass battery) already if they're aiming for a Oct/Nov release IMO.

But even if they're copying straight from the R17 Pro template (+845), specs don't look like anything to be scoffed at TBH.

Personally I think so too TBH, but unfortunately "thicc" is kinda a taboo word amongst phone makers nowadays lol.

But if the R17P specs are anything to go by, we're getting at least 3700+mahs, split between two batteries (to allow Super Duper Hyper Fast... ehem... Warp Charge). Better then no upgrade at all lol.

Anddddd BECAUSE we're getting SDHF charging (lol), we're probably NOT gonna get wireless charging, AGAIN.

Yep pricing matters. Specs can’t really improve much already. But I doubt it will cost less than the 6?

If really wait till next January we might see it equipped with 855. I heard the next OnePlus phone will be a Flagship model, will see significant price bump. To be honest i like NEX/Mi Mix more.

The downside of on screen fingerprint is... slow, so did OnePlus really over come this barrier? "Unlock the speed". There really no need to have Wireless Charging if it has access to Super VOOC.

I'm actually going through a whole slew of technical questions in my mind about the practicality of using two batteries over one (which it's doing to achieve SDHF Charge - yes I'm gonna just call it that now), but I guess if its decent enough that Oppo can fit it into the the R17P fer realz, then it shouldn't be too bad.

On the other hand, as for the FPS, unless it's Ultrasonic (which I doubt), it's not gonna be any speedier then the Nex S's... except if it skips some verification stages (which would make it less secure = bad) or if it's actually NOT the same optical FPS unit as the one used in the Nex S (a Synaptics unit, perhaps).

Well, unless someone tears down an R17R, we'll probably won't know anyway until we get closer to Nov.

Oh, BTW seems my cases have arrived, both the Sedio Optik and MoKo Twill OEMs straight from AliEx. Details incoming, but lemme say one thing about the Optik OEM: It might very well be the BEST "clear" type case I've gotten so far.

EDIT: ALSO my SGFreshIdea InvisShield TGSP woooo!

Not really. The 5T came in November 2017. The 6T should arrive earlier looking at how soon Oneplus pushes out its new models every 6 months. I'd say we should be expecting the 6T to arrive around November or early December for sure.

Why the hype with all the on screen fingerprint / normal fingerprint unlock. With facial unlock which is way more convenient and faster than fingerprint unlock, why bother about fingerprint unlock anymore?

Did you guys notice how thick the Note 9 is with 4000 mah? There is no more space to squeeze the extra mah for now. I would prefer a thinner phone. 3300mah on oxygen could easily last me a day under normal usage.

Why the hype with all the on screen fingerprint / normal fingerprint unlock. With facial unlock which is way more convenient and faster than fingerprint unlock, why bother about fingerprint unlock anymore?

I for one prefer FPS over Face Unlock. Why? For now its more secure (unless you go full Apple with 3D depth mapping), faster (well, in its current form anyway), doesn't have issues with accessories (except for gloves ler) and you can actually use the FPS for other things (like launching stuff, turning on torchlight, pulling down the notification drawer etc).

But eyyy, maybe in a few years maybe Face Unlock will be good enough that it won't matter anymore.

And damn it. I have shit skills with SPs... I have now ruined both of the bloody SGFreshIdea TGSPs, totally. Sigh.

I give up, tomorrow I go find TGSP at a bloody shop ler.

Not really. The 5T came in November 2017. The 6T should arrive earlier looking at how soon Oneplus pushes out its new models every 6 months. I'd say we should be expecting the 6T to arrive around November or early December for sure.

dry.gif Screen unlock is good features, especially when your hand is busy... but to remove the finger print sensor from the back is a bad choice. Think about it, when you hold your phone your index finger is located at the FPS where it unlock the screen. hmm.gif for me if they release somewhere in January, I assume they're waiting for 855, and want to be the first Flagship phone to have that processor in 2019.

For battery, i don't mind it get thicker, Dual battery if possible. then + Super VOOC. That definitely top of the line spec. Ultimate phone on the go for me.

And now case (mini-)review time:

Attached Image
MoKo Twill OEM:
+ Very nice feel of the patterned back
+ Side pattern/holes makes it very grippy (as does the patterned back)
+ Strap hole provided
+ Slider cutout perfect
+ Camera cutout protected well
+ Sloped FPS access
+ Seems to have enough side clearance for Official TG

- Buttons a bit less tactile then Spigen, better then the Sedio below though
- Front lip very minimal (with my vinyl-backed 6, it's pretty much non-existent with a TGSP on)

+- Feels a bit less protective, probably due to it being a bit on the thin side (comparable to the Ori TPU case).

Attached Image
Sedio Optik OEM:
+ Side roughened surface = grippy
+ Back dot pattern eliminates A LOT of the "rainbow effect", while not getting in the way of clarity too much (fairly important, even the Ringke had to be modded to achieve this)
+ Cam cutout protected well
+ Enough clearance (side) for Official TG
+ Corner bumper molding seems nice for shock absorption

- Buttons less tactile, worse then MoKo Twill
- Slider cutout is more like the Ringke V2 (aka, not really good) vs the Moko/Spigen
- FPS cutout isn't sloped (but I haven't had much issues using it nonetheless)
- Front lip very minimal (again, + my vinyl back its pretty much zero with a TGSP)

+- Smooth TPU, which means it's slippery to dry fingers and grippy to wet ones.
+- No strap hole (not necessarily important, it is to me though)

Annnnd with that, unfortunately I'll have to ditch both of these and go back to my trusty Spigen, and my anti-rainbow modded Ringke.

Why? The lack of lip for the screen on both is just too much for me TBH (the Spigen and Ringke has plenty of it), though it might just be my ClearPlex back protector as it adds a tiny bit of thickness to the OP6 - probably leading to the zero lip situation.

A bit miffed I bought 2 of each, even if they were (very) cheap on AliEx... when I actually only have one each of my "preferred" cases lol.

Just bought the OP6. Expecting to receive it today. Can't wait any more so fuck the 6T. Whatever improvement/feature coming on the 6T is just stupid. Haha.

Jokes a side, anyone using the OP6 red silicon case? Any reviews? Although its kinda pricey for me, I would get it if its good. Good meaning if my son throws my phone on the floor, it wouldn't crack. Haha. Or any other recommendations is appreciated.

Nylon lip is quite flush with the orzly tempered glass. I think the problem with the spigen is the lip covers more of the top bezel compared to the bottom bezel.

Nylon case doesn't give much grip though

Uuh, that sounds a bit insufficient to me though lip wise. Guess I'll stick with the Spigen even if I have to stick with partial protectors.

Review of Spigen rugged armor phone case used together with Nillkin H+ Pro tempered glass screen protector

As others stated, Spigen case comes with bigger lips on the screen so only partial coverage SP can fit. Here are some pictures for the combination:

Overall view. Installed with the Spigen case on. The SP still can be used after >10x attempts to ensure not a single dust and lints lol, still can adhere well without bubbles. There is a tiny bubble at the bottom, where I used my finger nail to pry open the SP sweat.gif . I have moved SP slightly to the top, leaving more space at the lower lip. In hindsight, it should be placed lower so that you won't feel the gap if you are using gestures. For my situation, I could avoid the gap by starting gesture slightly above, no problem for me. I also ensure the left and right side are equally placed within the Spigen case.
Attached Image

The perfectly aligned slot for alert slider. I was struggling to get this Spigen or Ringke Fusion. After reviewing much websites regarding the updated version on both clear and smoke black clear case, there are still a few reviews stating the alert slider slot does not fit well, although the volume button does improve. Buttons with Spigen case work perfectly, feels crisp as well.
Attached Image

The bottom cut out, ample space for each port.
Attached Image

The thickness of the case surrounding the camera. The slanted surface of the case below the fingerprint sensor. Coming from the free clear case from OnePlus which gives more space below the fingerprint sensor, I need a little time to get used to this. The existing fingerprints still work well despite fingers will be placed at a more acute angle.
Attached Image

The gap between the Spigen case and the SP will collect dust.
Attached Image

I placed the SP as centre as possible within the Spigen case. It turns out the SP is around 1 pixel smaller on each side, which gives a fine line of rainbow-like colours along left and right edges if the screen is well-lit.
Attached Image

Personally I am satisfied with both case and SP despite the smaller size and dust, no a big problem for me.

TLDR:
Spigen rugged armour is functionally perfect. Nillkin H+ Pro as a partial coverage SP, fits into this case. SP horizontal dimension is slightly smaller than phone display (1 pixel each on left and right side) and dust collects between the SP and case lip.

If you want a case like that, get the Otterbox commuter lol. It has the best chance of protecting your phone against... err... your son. Also, consider the UAG, Poetic Guardian and the Supcase UB Pro.

For "almost as good" protection with a thinner profile, get the Spigen Rugged Armour (when folks like me mention Spigen, this is the one). Heck, there's a review of it right above this post. Personally I've gotten into more then a few bumps and bruises with the Spigen on (including a screen first dive onto a tar road) and it's been doing its job so far.

Keep in mind though, that most of these cases have THICC lips and thus might not be compatible with "full cover" TGSPs (except maybe the Guardian, which is advertised to fit Poetic's full-cover TGSP).

I stuck translucent carbon fiber sticker to the back of the clear PC panel of the Ringke itself, and also to the other side just for good measure lol. Doesn't really matter that it's not entirely clear now coz my OP6Av back has a CF pattern anyway.

The logos still show through somehow though, even if it's not entirely "clear" anymore, so I'm pretty okay with the end result.

Here's how it looks like post mod:

This particular case design goes by many "brand" names lol, and have existed pretty much as long as the ori Spigen has, but it isn't all bad.

I got two of these from AliEx back during my Honor 8 days to replace my stretching Ori Rugged (yeah the Ori Spigen does get a bit loose after a year or so of use). They're a bit thinner and less ergonomic (less curvy) then the Ori, but the back brushed finish is pretty good for grip TBH. Overall not bad considering it's a lot cheaper.

Also, IINM this one supposedly works fine with "full cover" TGSPs, unlike the Ori one... though consequently it does lose a lot of the lip that makes the Ori so darned good in my books.

That said, I do think it's more than fine for "normal use" and upgrading to an Ori isn't really necessary. If you feel you NEED more protection, the Otterbox/UAG/Guardian/UB Pro is a better way to go IMHO.

If you're still looking for a clear back, check out the Supcase Beetle. That one might work a bit better. Skip the iPaky version though, it's pretty shit overall.

Also, if you DON'T have a wrapped back glass, do give the Sedio Optik clone (it's called the Capas Transparent Case over yonder in AliEx) I reviewed a try. Imma thinking it loses a lot of lip clearance simply because of the wrap I've got on, but if shouldn't be too bad if you don't.

Why? Because somehow the back has almost ZERO rainbow-ing, even with my glossy back wrap on.

shiningace Sorry I must have missed your question but yeah, I have the ClearPlex applied ONLY on the back glass. If you have a steady hand and more patience, I'd recommend ordering from Gadget Wraps or Skinomi however - they're both a bit cheaper (for what is essentially the same thing) but require self-installation.

Cases or protectors? The cases are legit (if not without their issues: the Solid Suit has slightly crappy buttons and rattly self activating alert slider... and the bumper thingy doesn't play nice with wraps).

The protectors though, eyyy it depends. The impact one is basically a more expensive X-One with a lifetime replacement warranty (and shipping is slower of course). So if you're patient (and if Rhino authorises a replacement more then twice), it can work out to be rather economical depending on how many times you claim replacements.

The a glass one? Seems to be a rebranded Orzly or something - but is otherwise the same drill as above. Free replacements if it breaks (and if Rhinoshield thinks it falls under the scope of their "lifetime guarantee").

As for cost? Shipping is about USD10-20 last I checked. So yeah a bit steep once you factor that in, though.

lopiop It's that one in the "copper" coloured boxes right? Single port, cheapo (kinda) car USB that claims to do Dash? If so I think someone already tested and yeah it's working.

Personally I recommend the Baozu one more though as it is has an extra USB but eyyy it's also pricier.

Personally not using discord or twitter myself (I'm using Talon for Twitter), no issues so far. Also Magisk-ed and Xposed, but no XXX no limit module on.

Just tried Discord. No issues at all. Talon, again no issues.

Anything else running in Magisk besides XXX? And did you unload (uninstall) the module as per instructions from the XDA thread? Sometimes some of these modules need specific uninstall steps. Also, anybody else on the mod thread having similar issues?

And yeah I do get that the XXX isn't a full ROM. I have tried one of those before (Magisk mod module, but I can't remember which one), but I didn't really like the experience so I ended up going back to Substratum and Xposed (specifically GravityBox) for my modding needs.

Which probably also means I'm gonna be stuck on Oreo for a while lol. Too many useful Xposed Mods to give up.

the uninstall module is from magisk itself yes? just tap the bin icon and reboot.

i did that and it is back to stock rom, however the problem still persist.

Well as long as that's the way it's "supposed" to be done (as in that's how the XDA thread on the mod tells folks to uninstall), yeah. For some modules, you need to run an "uninstall" zip to uninstall unfortunately.

And I'm not sure how else to fix as I really don't have those issues. Zilch. Facebook/Shazam does crash on me sometimes, but it's not a recurring thing.

Uninstall reinstall the apps themselves? I know a system wipe would work but that's the Nuclear Option, so let's try other methods first. Any other Mods / Programs that are NOT Magisk (but are still Root) that you have running that might be related? Unified Adblockers maybe?

okay i already solve the problem

it turns out that if the XXX magisk rom produce some error, user have to update the android system webview (need to disable chrome 1st).

so what i did is i enabled the chrome (installing chrome back in the phone), since i have no error with the XXX so far, and both app running normal.

Means that you NEED to disable System Webview for XXX but that breaks apps so you need to re-enable it again?

Hmm. Funnily, I actually had Android Webview frozen/disabled on my phone the whole time while testing Discord for you... not sure who disabled it as it wasn't one of the things I disabled myself while spring cleaning OOS post rooting. Maybe FKernel or something.

But yeah, Discord still worked with it disabled for me... hmm.gif

I have read there are no issues with reliablity and sensitivity. But to accomodate the on screen finger print sensor, the phone needs to be slightly thicker. The OP6T would be 0.45mm thicker than the OP6.

To be fair, it should be STILL a split second slower then "conventional" FPSes, even WITH OnePlus optimisations... but faster than what we generally have at the moment.

The tech is still not up to par to conventional FPS, but at the same time OnePlus is OnePlus and they won't let a "slow" FPS out of the gate for sure.

Problem is though, will apps be updated quickly enough to take advantage of the in-screen nature of the FPS (because the app needs to "know" that the FPS is under the screen, or else it would just treat it as your typical screen touch), especially local banking apps. Last I checked even M2U still doesn't really work with the Nex S FPS.

For some reason I really don't think OP will take that route, despite the rumors. Have you ever seen superfluous or redundant features on a OP phone, ever? I mean they even left out wireless charging on the 6 as they thought that Dash Charge made it less of a useful feature.

I mean, even the FPS is ONLY still there probably because the face scanner is not a secure IR depth sensor type.

Besides, I don't really see the article even mentioning another FPS. "Behind the display panel" here actually means the FPS under the screen.

That said, they could still pull a crazy stunt and do it anyway lol.

Well it will be thinner than the OP6 at least.

Any thinner and they're gonna have to fold the display under itself, which is bonkers hard to do and is (supposedly) part of the reason why that X is so bloody expensive.

And OP has been pretty allergic to expensive manufacturing practices so far (thankfully).

Well by "smaller then the 6" I did mean like the Oppo R17/R17 Pro, which as widely discussed on the net is probably the main donor for the 6T physical looks, as the R15 was to the OP6.

Not sure if the R17's chin is like the Vivo V11 though, but it looks pretty similar at least to my eyes.

Just to clarify, if everyone is referring to the GSMArena article linked above, they're talking about the in-screen FPS, not another FPS... hmm.gif

Note that the addition of a fingerprint reader behind the display panel will make the 6T thicker. Not much – just 0.45mm extra – but OnePlus had to re-arrange the internals to make everything fit.

Note that "behind the display" = underneath/in-display. So yeah, there's just one.

Honestly i dont need a 6.3" screen or even a 6". They should've stuck with the 5.7" screen but reducing the overall body size. I still find the 5T too big.

GSMarena;

Selfies
The OnePlus 6's selfie camera is a 16 MP Sony IMX376K unit with a 25mm equivalent lens of f/2.0 aperture. It looks the same as the one on the 5T, but the photos don't - these are pure awesomeness. While the focus is still fixed, OnePlus has tweaked the focus distance so that you get sharp results at arm's length and plenty of detail. Those are some of the most detailed selfies we've seen.

AFAIK, the front facing camera should be 16 MP Sony IMX371 hmm.gif

Before I got the Op6 I too had in mind that 6inch is quite big but after I go it hands on, I don't think it's too big anymore and the size looks just right for me.

The only downside for a big screen phone is that it tends to be a little bit on the heavier side. Holding it for too long or putting it in the pocket would consciously make u feel the weight.

emilyngsc AFAIK the IMX371 is 16MP. And if 16/4 = 4MP, the JPEG output of the selfie cam is a tad too big for 4MP files IMHO.

Maybe selective pixel binning?

Fun fact, the similarly configured Oppo V9 (at least waterdrop-notch wise) doesn't actually have any LED lol. I just checked over the weekend.

The R17/R17 Pro hasn't come over these shores for me to check though, but assuming it isn't axed, it should be stuck somewhere in the receiver grill.

Proxy and Ambient Light sensor however, no idea. Should be somewhere around the grill, or maybe inside as well.

emilyngsc AFAIK the IMX371 is 16MP. And if 16/4 = 4MP, the JPEG output of the selfie cam is a tad too big for 4MP files IMHO.

Maybe selective pixel binning?

My bad. I'm noob & just read based on the paper.

Regarding the pixel binning, I don't dare to say.

I actually support this TBH. Not sure why OP switched to Phablets rather then sticking to normal phone sized phones. Maybe the extra space is needed to cram the components in lol.
*
I know its unlikely due to the OPX but i would love to see 2 sizes like the galaxy series. Oh another thing which i find the most disappointing for 5T/6 is the 1080p screen. Its not helping that the screen is getting bigger as well.

Fun fact, the similarly configured Oppo V9 (at least waterdrop-notch wise) doesn't actually have any LED lol. I just checked over the weekend.

The R17/R17 Pro hasn't come over these shores for me to check though, but assuming it isn't axed, it should be stuck somewhere in the receiver grill.

Proxy and Ambient Light sensor however, no idea. Should be somewhere around the grill, or maybe inside as well.

Most probably as you would mention....near the grill...i bet it is the similar design to essential phone (refer to page 3)

Many retailers start slashing OP6 my set price. Guess that's a sign 6T is coming real soon.

To be fair to OP though, the 6 does feel somewhat easier to handle then a "full-fledged" Phablet, maybe due to the curves, thinness and thin bezels. Ever so slightly, anyway.

Coming from an Honor 8 you can imagine my initial awkwardness. However, having used the Note 3 before that (still pretty much the most compact Note in my books), the 6 did feel a lot less "wide" then that phone (or my mother's monstrous iP7Plus for that matter).

But yeah, a pure 5-inch-ish bezelless device would have been pretty handy really... but I do think that managing 2 release units at any one time might be a bit too much for OP to handle... as it would probably tax their logistics a bit now that they're not selling by invites any more.

Hence the current (slightly questionable) twice a year, single device cycle.

Also forgot to mention no vapor chamber doh.gif c'mon oneplus step up your game…poco have these and cost less… the under the screen fp is really not what most user want… I think most will agree a 4000mah or more and vapor chamber is a more meaningful upgrade!!! If got I might get the 6t just for gaming alone!!!

Ok I forgive you oneplus for not having it in 6t because poco came out of no where lol

The 4000mah and the vapor chamber better not be missing on the oneplus 7/7t
*
Battery on the R17 Pro is 2x1800mAh (3600), so barring any last minute changes (unlikely), that's what the 6T is gonna get. Also, personally, I think vapor chambers are really only needed to counter for thermals that are "compromised" by design.

I mean, the 6 even throttles less then the S9+ (as per Notebookcheck), and IINM that phone has a heatsink lol. Hell, the #papan9 still throttles WITH the "hydro-carbon chamber of secrets" that it has...

... and the 6 is STILL above both phones (and the Poco) on the offical Antutu chart.

No real reason for the added cost unless it's absolutely necessary TBH.

As for a bigger battery though, I'm all with you on that. 3600mAh is pretty small for such a big ass phone as the 6T IMHO, and I for one wouldn't mind the phone be a bit thicker for more battery life for sure.

This is why is say oneplus need to step up their game…  the problem is poco f1 exicist

if poco never came to be then no prob… the competition can offer both heatpipe n 4000mah at less price can oneplus must change it seem that pocophone is where oneplus is when oneplus just started a flasgship killer… I love oneplus and I want them to return to their roots

I know u cant just modify phone near release data which is why I said I forgive oneplus since poco came out pf nowhere read my post sbove…

But 4000mah and heatpipe better not be missing from 7/7t else I believe oneplus has lost it edge… this is my 2cent lahhh

Well, personally I think that OnePlus has ALREADY lost their "roots" a while back, from the 5 onwards. They're pretty much gunning to fill the "budget flagship" segment now rather than "flagship killer" - as in "cheaper but almost as good" as compared to "hella cheap bleeding edge performance with substantial compromises" that the OPO once was (and the Poco is now).

But I digress. If you ask me, it's true that they haven't really been making the best of design decisions lately, or at least decisions that reflect "principles" OP supposedly represents such as Value and Practicality for the least of compromises.

Like, for me, the 6T feels like it isn't really compromising where it needs to compromise. Like why not ditch the (possibly) unreliable in-display FPS for "Dash Wireless Charging", or hell, a bigger battery? Both of which are FAR more "useful" IMHO then the FPS.

And that TOF back sensor (assuming the 6T keeps that too from the R17Pro), WTF? You want to make your phones emulate a bloody Wii issit? Another ACTUAL sensor (even a slightly shittier one) with a wide lens would have been a LOT more practical TBH.

I'm beginning to think that their fortunes "hardware-wise" nowadays is at the near complete mercy of Oppo rather then themselves lol - and all they can do is adjust around the R-series template of the (half-) year to suit their needs best they can.

But hey, in-display FPS + TOF sensor = at least nobody can say they're not hangin' with all the other cool bleeding edge kids now lol - as superfluous as those two features might end up being.

"Now be amazed as we use the TOF sensor to project AR Emojis... on somebody else's face... THE OTHERMOJI!"

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Go Google the specs for the upcoming 6T. If it's attractive to you, it should hit local channels by the end of the year, so it's not a long wait.

However, if the decreasing price of the 6 is more interesting for you, by all means do get the 6.

Save for the slightly lesser-then-flagship Cameras (it's pretty good, just not P20Pro/S9 good), it's a very nicely built phone with excellent software (as far as OEM flavored Androids are concerned) and performance by the boatload.

So yeah, it depends.

Personally, I like mine enough that I'm probably staying out of the upgrade race for a few years lol.

It's a bit complicated.

For photos, the hardware is actually there, as can be evidenced from the pictures not being too bad once I installed Camera M Mod (a Magisk module) and dialed down the NR and sharpening. But at stock settings it kinda smears details a bit (the infamous "OP watercolour"), hence the "less then flagship" thing.

Also it's not so good in the dark, as the auto algorithm prefers to jack up ISO (less details, more noise... which the NR further butchers on stock settings) vs lengthening shutterspeed... but to be fair, that's what most phone cameras tend to do, anyway.

Still, it's pretty good for the price range, save for probably one rival, the Mi8, as that one is a bit better in the dark... though I'd rather not deal with MIUI myself (having come from EMUI). Personally, I have no real qualms with the pics though - but again I'm running it modded.

For videos, it's pretty good too. 4k/60fps, OIS, slow mo bla bla... But again it's not up to the flagships (especially in regards to the EIS/OIS) but it's a still better then the rest in its class for sure. The Zenphone 5Z comes close video-wise, but Asus software package is an acquired taste unfortunately and the stabilisation is even worse.

So yeah.

To be completely honest, it's the "package" that the 6 brings that is the clincher for me personally. Awesome build quality (shame its still a glass sandwich), speedy performance, pretty decent cameras overall and very, very light software (with resulting respectable battery life)... and all for less money now that the 6T is coming.

It's a "the sum of its parts" kinda thing really.

Bought 5T back in Jan and put my 6P into retirement. Yes, I kinda miss 6P camera but that's about it. Everything else are improvements on the OP. The performance, fast charge & batt life are better than 6P... At least to me.

No problemo. If you can't find any demo sets elsewhere, All-IT Hypermart branches usually have OP6 demo units for you to play with.

Ironically, I ended up buying the 6 primarily because of an All-IT demo unit lol - before that I had qualms over the 6's size (vs my comparatively tiny old Honor 8)... biggrin.gif

i went to see the OP6 at showroom 3 time. each time i pick their disadvantages over the big screen, font size layout, etc. I was from OP5. because the recent Mi Han trade-in program i decided to go OP6.

OP6 camera wasn't at flagship level. sometime i do feel OP5 is better. however OIS is nice to have features.

Battery wasnt as good as OP5 if not worse but should at least on par. most time (on standby) i'll need to re-charge 1 1/2 day compare OP5 2 full days.

I do feel the Dash charging OP5 is better and faster than OP6, maybe that just my feeling.

But in all, OnePlus devices are good! love the build quality ,fast dash charging and fluent android experience. u wont regret if targeting that 3 main points.

Well, it could be that they have IP67 to counter the loss of that jack... but yeah, this is pretty in line with what I said before about "questionable design decisions lately"... or rather being "at the mercy" of Oppo's design team.

It's sounding more and more like they are (shackled to Oppo), and whatever Carl is saying is just rationalising the fact that the phone the OP6T is gonna be based on (the R17Pro) just doesn't have a jack to begin with... and there's no real time (or resource) left to try to change that for the 6T.

Well, at least seems that I decided to get in at the best possible time then lol. RIP Jack, you will be missed... while I continue to enjoy mine happily for the foreseeable future.

Well i don feel too bad about losing the jack beside, OP did mention they will include adapter to counter to wire earbuds.... soon i believe there will be third parties that allow charging and port adapter (that would still remain to be hopeful, truly) because we are welcoming new tech like in display finger print scanner and possible ip68 rating perhaps even possible larger battery for those complain need to charge after 1 1/2 days.

For my opinion, What they should had done was to included wireless earbuds bullet v2 in it to promote their wireless campaign (wishful thinking).... laugh.gif

R17 has it, not the R17Pro. But the death of Jack has been confirmed by Carl Pei himself so we now know which chassis is being borrowed by OP.

And you know what else the R17Pro lacks? The Alert Slider lol. Usually OP adds them onto the R-series chassis but eyyy, considering they're in such a subtractive mood...

Unfortunately enough, considering the #papan9 gets, on average, 4-5 hours of SOT under heavy use WITH the 4000mAh batt when I can get 6h+ easily with the 6 (while using it hard as I always do)... Samsung doesn't really look like a viable option either.

Unless they do an Android One S10.

doppatroll Some folks (like me) plan to not only use the jack for output, but for input as well... so it's more than just headphones. Also, the BEST split charge/jack Type-C adapter so far (the Sony something or other) can only do 500mA input, so good luck charging quickly with those unless OP has plans for a Warp Charge adapter (which I doubt is in the works).

Also, the Nex S managed fine with BOTH an in-screen FPS and a jack so Carl's little BS show holds very little water TBH, besides TRYING to cover up the fact that they're stuck with using the R-series as a base as they will be moving forward - with very little leeway to customise the end product.

And yes, expect the same 3600mAh (2x1800) battery from the R17Pro. 300mAh being the compensation paid for the death of the Jack, which (combined with the possibly slow and inaccurate FPS) seems to be a bit inordinate, at least to me.

But again, eyyy... I doubt people are gonna care pun lol. Look at the Honor 10, even with the shitty ultrasonic FPS and the death of its microSD slot (and locked bootloader), normies bought boatloads of the thing anyway.

Also, the BEST split charge/jack Type-C adapter so far (the Sony something or other) can only do 500mA input, so good luck charging quickly with those unless OP has plans for a Warp Charge adapter (which I doubt is in the works).

Also, the Nex S managed fine with BOTH an in-screen FPS and a jack so Carl's little BS show holds very little water TBH, besides TRYING to cover up the fact that they're stuck with using the R-series as a base as they will be moving forward - with very little leeway to customise the end product.

I probably messed up the model, as some region calls R17 as R17 pro tongue.gif
But anyhow, with Jack gone, I will on hold my decision on 6T. wait for its official announcement first.

Omfg is oneplus for real… are we talking about oneplus… oneplus is removing the 3.5mm I hope this will be false

Update: I just read and its true… this will be a bad move on oneplus imho…

first u can't charge and listen on ur headphone at the same time unless u get those addapter which I don't even know works or not…

Second they will be huge lattency for games on their bluetooth device maybe upto 200 or more ms… even aptx LL is only rated upto 100ms only… bad news for gamers like me…

Haih wut happen to oneplus doh.gif

One good news is that oneplus 6 will be a gem the last phone from oneplus with headphones jack tongue.gif
*
Bro isn't it a bit risky to listen via jack and charging at the same time? Saw many cases of death due to this.....
Anyway if the removal of jack is replaced with better batterry (confirmed) and better features like IP67/68 or infrared I'll take it anytime. There is still a adaptor include for 3.5mm or just get the USB-C bullets.

So, w/o the headphone jack, the phone thickness can be balanced out with new features, & better battery life?
The new phone won't be very thick then.....

Fixed that up fer ya.

Also, do remember that the OP2 Did ditch the NFC... and OP ended up putting it back in later so there's the slightest glimmer of hope that Jack might be returning...

Than again, OP actually designed their own darned phones back then, rather then modding Oppo designs, so... hmm.gif

Yeah I think Carl Pei is doing it because Oppo and their parent company BBK electronics want to simplify their factory production.
So if Oppo's flagship has no headphone jack, the OnePlus flagship probably won't either. bangwall.gif

Could there's be a possibility of earphones being included in the box with the 6T, seeing as there's going to be a Type C bullet earphone?

Yes, but that would mean an increase in the price of the phone. I never had a headphone included on my purchase since the Oneplus one.

To bribe appease the roving bands of angry enthusiasts, maybe. A Jack adapter SHOULD be included by default though, as per every other Android OEM who has betrayed our poor Jack.

Unless OP is planning to go FULL Apple on us... doh.gif

You'd think that rather then put a bloody LED in there they could have put a wireless charging pad inside instead lol. But eyyy, that's just practical ol' me.

I mean folks already did it with iPhone 6/7s. Maybe later once my phone get older I can experiment like that one YouTube angmoh in China who did that (and Jacked his 7).

And TBH, that finish looks hideous to my cheapo eyes lol.

As for checking, not so sure.

Got my ringke fusion case today.
It's not bad but there's 2 major drawback...
The speaker volume is noticibly lower now, I have a hard time listening to foot steps while playing pubg.
Another issue is that it's impossible to switch my alert slider...
I literally have to remove the case to switch them

Most probably gonna get another case, any recommendation for clear case?

If your buttons work well you might have the "revision" version (yeah the buttons used to be even worse lol). If you use an art knife or something to shave a bit of the material from the "inside-top" of the slider opening, it should work a bit better.

Otherwise, yeah, that's pretty much it. A good thing is the Fusion has a decent amount of front lip... which is more I could say for a whole bunch of other cases out there. For example, the Sedio Optik / Capas clear case has better buttons, cutouts and a zero-rainbow back... but for me it has no lip at all lol (check front page for a link to my review on the casenunder "Acessories").

Oh, there ARE the Supcase UB Style (aka the Beetle) and the Orzly Fusion cases, but I haven't tested any of them yet so no idea if they are viable alternatives. The Orzly has a clear back with no bumps though, which means RAINBOW PARTY!

It might rainbow badly though, due to the no-bump back. Just FYI. Personally think the Supcase UB Style would work better in that regard, but it has flush buttons unfortunately.

What does flush button mean?
Anw "rainbow" refers to the reflective rainbow-ish tone on the cover right?
How does no bump create rainbow effect?

Actually "rainbow" here refers to that yucky, oil-like effect that you get when a clear, non-bumped plastic/TPU case back gets into contact with the glossy back glass of a phone. It's like how a bad, non full adhesive TGSP looks like when you push down.

The bumps keeps the two layers apart, or at least tries to, so the effect is minimised. Look at the back of your Ringke case to see how these bumps look like.

The rainbow "tone" is another thing but eyyy that's not really an issue as it is usually only present under certain angles. The oil "rainbow"? You can clearly see it no matter what angle you look at it lol, so yeah you don't want it.

As for "flush" buttons, well they're buttons that don't physically poke out on the cases. Some of them are marked with texturing or cuts but they don't rise out from the sides, and are of the same level. I find these types of buttons a bit harder to feel for so I don't really like them... but they can be "okay" when done right.

prokiller1199 Actually, my Smoke unit does seem "partly" updated. The buttons are awesome (they have cuts in them like the Spigen vs the fully uncut original release) but the slider cutout is still pretty meh lol.

So I modded the cutout with a razor (and the back panel with some stickers as even with bumps, my ClearCoated back is pretty rainbow-prone) and it's soldiering on well as my backup case now.

Hmmm, then the buttons have cuts in them even in V1? Then I don't really understand the previous issue with them as they work fine this way. Was under the impression that they didn't have the cuts to begin with.

Or did the rep only mean updates to the alert slider cutout (check the reply you posted: "only fixed the alert slider cutout...")? Because yeah the one I got did have a shitty cutout. Only the buttons seemed improved (even if they were).

On V1? Or V2? Because I really thought the issue with the pre-revision models were shitty buttons AND the crappy alert slider cutout.

If I was wrong then it's fine lol. The my razor DIY fixes are sufficient anyway for the alert slider to work, and for a backup case that's already fine for me.

A shame they're not updating the smoke though.

The only issue I have with the UAG is the huge branding at the back lol. Sure, the logo is part of the UAG "look" but it's a bit too showy for me.

Otherwise it seems to be a decent "tough" case for times when the Spigen isn't enough (or when you're rocking a full-face TGSP).

BTW, a few days back I stumbled upon what might just be the "Holy Grail" of glass protectors (at least for me): The Matte TGSP. Linkies here: https://goo.gl/3nz4hS

As happy as I am with the X-One, I am a hard core matte lover so I was sufficiently intrigued to order a few lol. Comments on Amazon seem to focus that it's not "full-cover", but eyyy, the X-One isn't either. Also a few folks complaining the TGSP wasn't clear when they ordered a matte one specifically... doh.gif

Hopefully I don't screw up applying these later though (like I did with the InvisShield), but supposedly they also come with a Whitestone-like "template"so that might make things a whole lot easier. Plus trauma from the "InvisShield incident" should make me a lot more careful this time.

Unfortunately, the company's international shipping rates don't really make them all that 'affordable" overall... BUT there's ZERO similar items on AliEx, just a few overcut ones that need "side glue"... soooo expensive shipping it is then.

So yeah, expect a review in a coupla weeks. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

carpathia Depends. How much is Mr Jack important to you? For me, I'd rather have it then not, for headphones AND mics, but I'm not so sure for you.

If you are the type who regularly uses earphones, I would say get the OP6. Oneplus'*decision on ditching the earphone jack is really disappointing.

No such issue so far. Heck, my voice is clearer to them now on my OP6 vs my old Honor 8, so yeah the OP6 isn't supposed to do that.

Check calls from multiple locations and see if there's any difference. If there's none (as in it's bad everywhere), you might want to send it in for warranty claims.

nope. My casing cuting is match with the phone and im pretty sure when call or receiving calls i did not block the mic. Only when receiving calls would have problem, other than that, when i call back its okay as in normal.

Most probably a software issue then. Try hard resetting the phone to see if it solves the issue.

Mobile2Go is offering the limited edition white 128GB Mihan Msia set with 2 years warranty for Rm2299. Very good buy if you ask me. Or you can opt for the Rm2199 A3000 Ap set 256GB Black set,

1st OP6 i bought, just use for 40 mins and its dead. push power button, did not vibrate or respond.
straight go the shop demand 1 on 1 exchange and they obliged, but stated that if things happens again, i settle with official distributor.

so far now my OP6 working excellently

I purchased this phone from mobile2go at lazada and its kinda chaotic just to receive the phone. I purchased and nearly a week they only process my order. I called them and they just told me still processing so i just replied sure i will wait. Then lazada told me they cancel the order cause too long processing due to lazada own policy. After that the next day i got the phone from gdex. So happy and now just to realized a rather unfortunate for the phone to be so problematic. I cant return to the shop cause im living far from any of their branch. The next few days im going overseas again. So little time and now this to happen... bangwall.gif bangwall.gif mad.gif vmad.gif

Yes, that's the waterproofing screen. Whatever you do, don't poke it or otherwise damage it if you wanna keep your splash resistance.

If you've poked through it already... err... GG lor.

TBH, if your backup apps bring the problem back (and it wasn't there with a reset), then it's one of the apps you've restored lor, for sure. Might be a compatibility issue or something, aim for recording apps or other apps with access to the mics (including third party camera apps).

Or you can just go back the M2G and make noise until they gip you a new one lol... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

u can give it a try like others suggested here, but if hardware problem, either you go to their shop directly (if your set is AP) or settle the matters with official distributor

if u want to use the camera, just stick to it 1st and use any secondary phone for call purposes.

Thats what i thought. So i removed all those non-essential and choose backup which are essential apps like those banking apps, some basic games that did not use mics.. so far its okay.. I will test it for further confirmation if i required to go for a warranty.

Also one more thing, where to choose volte option? Or is it available by default cause mine is all grayed out at the in the network settings other than on/off data, choose which data type (4g/3g/2g) and thats it. Inside sim settings also only roaming, access point and network operators. Is this normal.?

is it alright to buy china ap set at rm1799 (price i see at directd.com.my)

and then flash my own rom from XDA?

are there any considerations to make? like quality or honestly im not sure... anyone more experienced mind telling me all things to consider.... and the differences between ap china and internatinoal ...

1. i dont quite care about warranty (so long as it can be repaired)
2. so long as custom rom works as intended i dont quite care

and oh, i dont want chinese on my phone..

" 6000 is for China/India (no play services, few bands missing etc)"

google says that

..... not clear if missing bands affect me... anyone know?

Errr... China sets have warranty too... though its not as comprehensive as the Mihan sets. Also, for all intents and purposes those 3 extra bands are only really useful for use in the Continental US. Well, supposedly anyway.

Otherwise, not much difference TBH.

Source: I'm rocking an A6000 myself... as that's the only version the OP6Av comes in apparently. Also, most of these "China" units came with OxygenOS (vs HydrogenOS) already pre-installed by the sellers so it's pretty much "International" out of the box - though that also means it doesn't come "sealed" anymore.

Unless you're buying from GearBest or something lah, in which case they often come bone stock with Hydrogen rather than OOS, but should be sealed accordingly.

Well, at least try checking Lazada for more options (Wowphone is the same as DirectD BTW, but sometimes they have better prices on Lazada), just in case.

Otherwise, considering you don't really care about the warranty, I guess it should be fine to get ANY of the AP sets (though the Ori sets have a very attractive 2 year warranty still).

For all intents and purposes, it would, but it's pretty easy to flash stuff to return the device into its "Original" state before sending it into warranty.

If you can't... well... you better hope its broken "enough" that people wouldn't even be able to determine if it's "Customed" or otherwise... or hope the shop turns a blind eye to the fact.

I agree with what Eiraku posted above. If you know how your way in flashing and stuff, it is easily to restore fully to stock and relock the bootloader. Usually within 1 year the phone won't really have any problem (if you cracked LCD, water damage etc memang not covered also). Unless it's like motherboard issue or overheat etc which is rare.

i mean ive done it before. im usually on linux, so i don't mind technical difficulty. but i had to ask as i've seen certain phones like samsung ones have some bootloader protection where if you change that, you'd need to get an auth key or something from samsung website, which would void warranty.

not sure if OP has similar methods.

You mean something like the Sammy eFuse (aka Knox)? Nope. Zero. Zilch. Funnily enough this is one of the reasons why I decided on the OP6 over a Sammy phone - even if Sammy Malaysia is actually quite lax when it comes tripped Knox fuses TBH.

Unlocking (and if need be, TWRPing and rooting) the OP6 - or any of the OPs for that matter - leaves nothing but that slightly annoying "Your device is not secure" screen (I'd rather it just be just a screen with a huge Exclamation mark but that's probably just me) and downgrading your Widevine to L3, but eyyy that happens to most devices anyway.

And relocking your device returns it back to normal (even Widevine back to L1) with zero trace of anything being done to it.

Heck even if you mess up your device so badly you don't even have fastboot anymore (lol I've actually been there myself), you can always go into MSM mode and recover your device with Qualcomm's own flasher and an easily obtainable image file - which shows, in a way, just how "hack friendly" OPs are.

But again, keep in mind these folks are running a business, not a charity... Especially parallel importers, who might a bit less worried about "customer satisfaction" than they are about their bottom lines.

As long as you cover your tracks well (or erase it if need be), there should be zero warranty claim issues. Conversely, they would probably be just as happy to deny you warranty if you give them just cause.

They do run a business, selling phones. Are there many returns due to bad custom rom installs? Although... I must say they would at least protect from "malware" roms.

Then again, OP has given us more freedom. In any case, I just went ahead with the buy. 128GB red amber.. One thing i should have asked to confirm, it has a glossy finish feel like mirror black right? as opposed to midnight and silk

A bit tldr, so I'm gonna spoiler this lol.

Well, back to my original intent, all I'm saying is while yes custom flashing still kinda sorta voids the warranty (especially with AP sets), it shouldn't be too much of an issue if you're careful, which you seem to be. So yeah, it's not really worth worrying about.

As for colour, yeah the Red one has a glossy back like Mirror Black. The depth of the color underneath is more like Silk White though, with shades of red, yellow and orange depending on how light hits it.

It's so nice, I would have gotten the Red myself if it came in 8/256 TBH lol.

Not sure if you can consider the R17Pro TOF sensor a "camera" though, as you don't exactly take any pictures with it.

TBH even if it's missing on the 6T, people would probably not miss it much, considering AR Core is already a thing even without it (and 3D depth scanning is pretty much of very limited "real" value so far).

I mean, using your phone as a motion game controller? hmm.gif

I'm using Nillkin H+ Pro. You can check my review post for photo to check if the TGSP suits you.

I second this pairing, though you gotta be slightly more careful with the H+ as the thinness of the glass (0.22mm) means its slightly less durable.

Also the SGFreshIdea InvisShield (slightly thicker then the H+ so a bit more durable, but pricier and online only) and the X-One (excellent for impact/drops, bad at everything else, expensive for what it is). Plus, I have another partial TGSP on order but I can't say if its worth it yet until it arrives.

For "full cover" ones the Orzly MIGHT work, if you install it to fit, as it's a tad smaller then the other full cover TGSPs.

Is there any setting for the screen fullscreen? Currently in instagram, most of the stories are kinda like zoomed (out of the screen).

Unfortunately that's just the weird aspect ratio at work, not much you can do. The app devs CAN force image stretching, but that's gonna make things looks really weird sometimes - so mostly they prefer zoom (out in this case) to fit.

You CAN override Fullscreen settings under Settings -> Display -> App Display In Fullscreen, but all that does is force apps to use the notch area (which is usually cut out), and it might or might not help.

Lets see how well fruitphone fares this round with their overpriced XS and XS Max. You would need to look at the overall sales later, not the initial sales. The first wave will definately be fully bought by the scalpers and the fags. Let see how far they go this round. Even the sales the Note 9 failed to impress this round, given a minor price increase and pre order goodies given together with the sale.

Dang. Freezing the Update app to avoid getting the inescapable "UPDATE NOW!" notification later.

Like I said before, I'm actually sticking with Oreo for a bit more myself lol. Well, until Magisk (or Magisk ROMs) starts having stuff I need or Xposed gets released for Pie (whenever that is).

But that's just me. Have fun updating guys!

Nop. Someone edi mentioned that OB3 has a higher version num lol. And realistically speaking of course OOS 9 is not the penultimate version, OB4+ will exist to test further updates of 9 stable.

Soooo, wait for OB4 or rollback to 5.1.11 and OTA/sideload.

Realised that if use the pixel style nav button it's very sensitive. Like if I press the back button sometimes it recognize as swipe up to recent apps, or sometimes I swipe up it'll quickly direct me to the last open app. A bit annoying.

I'm used to the OnePlus nav gesture, been using it since launch day. Now trying the pixel style nav bar and still not used to it. Feels that it's a bit slower and buggy (the bugs I mentioned)

Yep myself I prefer the Oreo gestures. Does the Pixel style pill scroll work? Like to scroll through the recents list?

Yes it does. But I don't really fancy that feature as well tbh. Like if u scroll thru the apps and decides to go to home screen instead, u can't. U have to select one of the app in the list then only can go home because when u're scrolling through the apps the 'home button' disappears.

I'm on stable android pie, but currently facing an issue.

I couldn't take a screenshot using vol up + power button or by long pressing power button and select screenshot.

It shows an error message "couldn't save screenshot", anyone facing the same issue ?

I was finally able to replicate the back where if u press the back button it'll jump to recent all instead. Here's how:

1) Open any app and the back button will appear.
2) Instead of pressing precisely on the back button, press slightly to the left of it (the blank space on the left of the back button).
3) Now instead of going back it goes to the recent app menu.

Now this is annoying cause you have to be very precise with where you press, slightly to the left of the back button and it'll trigger the recent all menu. That's ridiculously stupid.

What was the fix though? Might be useful for others facing the same issue.

ace-user Yeahhhhhh, now kinda sounds like the "old way" was better lol. Hopefully they give us an option for that in future builds but I'm not particularly hopeful.

Plus the old style also had zero static UI elements vs this Pill and back button in the "new" one (even if they autohide). Zero static UI elements = better against AMOLED burn-in.

But eyyy, "near stock Android" rite.

Ahhh. So only JPGs for Pie screenshot then.

BTW, testing a new toy for the OP6, a compact, micro gimbal that doesn't suck too hard: The X-Sight 2S.

Attached Image

Only a 2-axis (x/y) unit but hey, its TINY when folded up and hopefully the OIS/EIS (and technique) will sort out the missing axis (z). Plus, it works with the Honor 360 Cam for some sweet cheapo stabilised 360 vids, which is a nice bonus.

Also in line to beta test the Shirui Pocket 1-axis unit... but I'm not entirely sure how that one can outperform the X-Sight, except probably in terms of size and price.

So on Android pie, pressing the volume button will adjust the media volume only , and seems like there's no other slider to adjust the ring volume.

Anyone figure out how to adjust the ring volume on Android pie ?

Oh mai. Did they link Media/Ring as they did Ring/Notification on Oreo? Don't tell me a single slider controls Media/Noti/Ring now?

Maybe it's hidden somewhere under the "Sound" setting or under DND, try checking under those two.

Download Oxygen Updater through Play Store and update manually? There's a few more steps involved though VS auto-pushed OTA, but it's not that hard IMHO.

Yeah. The app itself is actually nothing more then a downloader for the official FW zips. That said, do keep in mind that if you're rooted you can ONLY flash FULL FW zips, not the partial zips you get as part of the standard OTA.

If you're not rooted, then yeah you can download the partial zips, and follow the given instructions to update.

Are you unlocked? Did you install Magisk (which can be configured to be hidden but that's beside the point)? Have you ever been rooted or unlocked before (as both processes might leave folder traces on your system that your company app might pick up).

If not that's rather peculiar.

I'm glad I'm not the only one facing this issue. It makes the pixel Pil style nav bar almost unusable because you have to be so precise with where u press. Shame really cuz I was just about to really like the pixel nav bar :/

Is USB Debugging turned on in Dev options? Heck, do you even have Dev Options turned on to begin with?

If it not all that, only thing I can think of is either your company app being coded wrongly for root check, or some other app interfering with it.

If all else fails, I guess a reset would probably be the only option left (as nuclear as it is)... after which DO make sure you try your company app FIRST before installing anything else to make sure that it's not something else at fault.

So after the update, my OP6 randomly booted itself to recovery. Not frequent, just sometimes. Had to reboot manually from stock recovery to system.

(Unlocked BL, Magisk+TWRP) Oreo updated to Pie (rooted with Magisk, didn't install TWRP yet).

Its because your mentioned company app is not build to support Android Pie and I'm afraid there is nothing much you can do about it. Only can wait until your company updates the app.

Clear cache on waze, google maps and apps that are affected. This GPS issue shouldn't be affecting Oneplus 6 as this issue was rectified long time ago on the OP3 and 3T.

yes, via OTA, sideload or flash the rom itself.

A6000 can use global rom, dont worry
usually distributor will sell the global version ROM

1. go to Settings > Sim & network settings
2. tap to your active sim
3. in Enhanced Communications, tap VoLTE

OP6T coming out in a few weeks time. You don't want to wait for that instead?

I'm excitedly waiting for launch of OP6t and Pixel 3 to decide which of these (6, 6t or Pixel 3XL) to get as my next phone.

That one is not enough for you to enable VoLTE

u need extra step for non-rooted OP6 as below:-

2) Download and install:
https://jamal2367.com/VoLTE-VoWiFi/Q....3%20Setup.zip
https://jamal2367.com/VoLTE-VoWiFi/QPST_2.7.420.zip
Just use the standard settings and click on OK, next, ...

3) Connect your phone to your laptop via USB

4) open dialer app and enter *#801# (only for default dialer, not other launcher dialer .... e.g. nova launcher etc )
Set Serial and Full-port switch to ON

5) Open "Software Download" in your QPST start menu folder, best to do by right click & "run as administrator"
Go to: MCFG_PDC (to the right), select your device, right click on "Oversea-Commercial_DS" and deactivate Sub0 and Sub1
Click on Oversea-Commercial_DS again and click on remove

6) Close the app and reopen it

7)
Go again to MCFG_PDC, select your device, scroll down to Telefonica_UK_Commercial, right click and SetSelectedConfig for both Sub0 and Sub1

8)
Click on Telefonica_UK_Commercial again, then to the right on Activate and on Start --> you will not see a confirmation screen, so don't be surprised
I received an error but it still worked.
Yes, select UK even if you are located in another region (see above for comfirmed locations + carriers)

9) Restart your phone

10) Voila, you now have working VoLTE + VoWiFi ( for digi please use Telefonica_UK_Commercial, for Unifi & umobile please use volte_OEM_Lab profile, u mobile no VoWIFI yet)



Reminder :- do at your own risk !
Steps copied from https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t...rriers-t3817542

although it is from OP5/5T thread, OP6 also can use ....

Mine is worse, sometimes the fingerprint is like "switched off" cannot detect anything, need to use face unlock.

But it could be due to the custom kernel that I'm using it right now lol

Ok, so updated to pie last night. So far loving it, but this morning when going to work, my Spotify no audio on my car stereo. Voice call works, wechat voice note works.

Anyone experience such issues?


EDIT- solved. stereo speaker mod was the culprit

Depends, you you value the in-display fingerprint sensor/possible cam improvements (OP6T) MORE than you do a saperate headphones jack (OP6)?

And so far there hasn't been any leaks mentioning wireless charging either - while the elimination of the jack was confirmed by OP's own CEO.

Hmm, if full coverage (with black frame) = Orzly (Shopee or from Orzly themselves) and if semi (with no frame) = InvisShield from SGFreshIdea.com (Singaporean dealer).

Why the Orzly? Because you essentially get 2 for the price of one (compared to the official TGSP anyway), and it's cut smaller than the Ori so it fits more cases.

Why the InvisShield? Because it's thicker (0.33mm) and is more resistant to self-cracking (or cracks from application or minor impact) then the 0.22mm Nilkin H+ (everything else is equal amongst the two).

Also the X-One if you don't care about scratching and just want the best impact resistance possible (but yeah it scratches SUPER easy).

Would the black frame cover any of the actual lcd screen? As in would it disrupt our viewing when using the phone?

Unfortunately it does, by 1-2mms (on all sides). Hence why some folks opt for partial-coverage units, which are most often than not, fully clear.

On the other hand, to be fully clear AND be able to cover the screens right up to the edges (of the screen's flat area), most of the partial-cover stuff can be kinda punishing to apply as the cutting can end up being EXTREMELY precise.

Case in point, the InvisShield.

If you put it on perfect it's pretty nice though. Edge to edge (of visible screen) and zero black frames. I have shaky hands though so I didn't fare so well.

i actually bought a full coverage 1 (with black frame) at pasar malam for rm15. seems not bad, it fits with the sandstone case. but i forgot to mention about fitting the notch. tho the notch is not noticeable when viewing directly at the phone, but when the phone is slightly facing down, u could see a notch below the notch lol

Hmm, if full coverage (with black frame) = Orzly (Shopee or from Orzly themselves) and if semi (with no frame) = InvisShield from SGFreshIdea.com (Singaporean dealer).

Why the Orzly? Because you essentially get 2 for the price of one (compared to the official TGSP anyway), and it's cut smaller than the Ori so it fits more cases.

Why the InvisShield? Because it's thicker (0.33mm) and is more resistant to self-cracking (or cracks from application or minor impact) then the 0.22mm Nilkin H+ (everything else is equal amongst the two).

Also the X-One if you don't care about scratching and just want the best impact resistance possible (but yeah it scratches SUPER easy).

ok thanks.. do i need to peel off the thin plastic screen protector that is originally on the phone before apply the tempered glass?

did you use the long press on the home screen method or gallery then set as?

the latter can work for me and it's the only method i can use now to change wallpapers. the former, when i select the wallpaper that i want, there's just nowhere to click to use it.

Yep.

Jack and slightly smaller body VS wireless charging (possibly), in-display FPS (probably slower), slightly bigger batt and tiny notch. Your call shinichi31.

Because right now I'm thinking of either OP6 or P20 because their prices are basically the same (my interest is just the camera. I dont really care about other things). Slightly leaning towards P20 since I'm already used to EMUI (currently using P9 lite). But after reading and watching reviews and comparisons, OP6 seems like the better deal. I guess I'll wait and see what 6t brings? if not I'll just pull the trigger on OP6 and hope for OP6 price drop.

I'd say the simple deal is OP6 for video (4k60 mmmm) and P20 for photos, but coming from EMUI myself (long time Honor 8 user before), I honestly found OOS to be a whole lot sleeker, faster and easier to keep up-to-date (even though I'm sticking to Oreo for now).

And easier to root too if that's more your drift, since Huawei went full retard in locking the bootloader from the P20 forward (not that there aren't ways to circumvent that but it's probably more hassle than it's worth). Banking apps still work fine while rooted too (thanks to Magisk hide, just in case you're thinking of doing it) but you lose your Widevine L1 cert (for HD Netflix) the moment you unlock unfortunately.

Plus if you're rooted, GCam and Camera M (a Magisk module with the ability to tune the heavy-handed OP6 camera sharpening and noise reduction) makes the OP6 cam a whole lot more competitive (though to be completely honest the P20 still pulls ahead even then).

But if we stick to the basics, yeah, OP6 for video and P20 for photos... and the 6T if you don't care about the jack (and the possible hike in price).

The only thing making me second guess the P20 is the video capability. I'd really love to get stabilized 4k video which OP6 has (but P20 nightshot is just too good to pass on). I guess my mind is set on OP6 for now and see what 6T brings before getting OP6. Thanks again!

4k 60fps for the win!

I always record video with 4k60, 1 minute video about 1GB file, transfer to PC and use Handbrake to convert it into 1080p60 x265 for archive, size become less than 50MB.

Expect to pay Iphone prices for the Pixel 3. I'd say, if camera is the main priority, get the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 or S9. The camera under Samsung's flagship would be comparable to the pixels.

For camera, Huawei P20 is much better in my opinion. If main concern is camera better go ahead P20. It is not OnePlus 6 camera not good just Huawei P20 will be much better.

I have no problems taking screenshots, but have problems with using the pixel pil nav bar. Press slightly to the left of the back button will trigger recent app menu instead of going back  bangwall.gif so annoying, can u try to replicate this bug? Just try to press the left corner of the nav bar (left of the back button). Make sure u're using the pixel nav bar.

Indeed the pixel bar has the issue you've mentioned, when I try to press the bottom left of the nav bar, it takes me to recent app.

Does the problem still persist? I no need to press exactly on the BACK button yet it still recognized it.
The BACK button is to be pressed, while to evoke RECENT swipe up anywhere also can, include swipe up at BACK button. Maybe when pressing BACK the system interpret your thumb touch as swipe up.

What I'm not to used to yet is the short slide left to open last used app. Slide too much and it open second last used app instead. Slide too little and it interpret as pressing the HOME button instead doh.gif

Maybe you try to use the full screen gesture first, wait until pixel nav bar get fixed then only use back

Yes it is. I've reported the bug on OnePlus forum and already sent the log files to the dev team. They're working on it and hopefully they'll come up with a solution soon.

Noice.

Shame I'm more of a vertical recents rolodex guy then a horizontal one, but eyyy, I'm also probably not gonna go up to Pie soon anyway (blame the entire army of Xposed modules I've grown to rely on)....

... though that army has actually whittled down to only a few stalwarts lately, and it might not be long that some of those get ported over to Magisk (through simple modules or MagiskROMs) so it might end up being sooner than I'd initially expected.

I need the HOME button because I use the double tap to screen off. Oneplus didn't have any other method from screen to off it, during Oreo time I also have to use the normal Android nav keys.

Maybe they'll fix it with next update. You still using Pill nav keys or full screen gesture?

The only way to split screen now is have to press the 3 small dot on top of the app? Hold and drag doesn't seem to work anymore. Long screen is good for split screen but now more difficult to split screen.

I need the HOME button because I use the double tap to screen off. Oneplus didn't have any other method from screen to off it, during Oreo time I also have to use the normal Android nav keys.

I know it does , but for how long ?

is it with 3700 mah we can more battery life for an hour or just 35 minutes ?

I know its depend on type.of users,but i dont think extra 400 mah can give lot of difference

You will have to wait for the actual phone to come out and let the reviewers do their job. Its just an added advantage the OP6T has over the OP6. Want a big battery? Go for the Zenphone Max with 4000 mah battery.

I used nova launcher on my previous android phone, but the oxygen launcher is pretty lightweight and similar to vanila standard android ROM, i prefer it to be lightweight that's why i chose OP6
Oxygen launcher works flawlessly for the double tab on "wallpaper" to on and off the screen, but now i could not find the "function" how to enable it on Pie, where last time i remember was on the "security" menu.

Double tap to lock : long press on wallpaper, go to home settings, then select Double tap to lock

Double tap to on : go to settings, select buttons & gestures, select quick gestures, double tap to wake

That's why I have it set to tap-tap-hold-swipe up in Nova, works a lot better with less accidental activations... though I use the power button to sleep more than the gesture to begin with.

That said I haven't had any issues at all using the gesture to sleep either.

And yes I know some of u will say I bodo razor 2 black shark 2 and rog will soon out but to me all of them will use sd845 so not much upgrade also rog is going to cost at least rm3.5k doh.gif probally true for razor 2 as well..anyway the black shark is a great phone if u want a dedicated phone just for gaming!

So for me my op6 will be my main phone and the black shark will be my gaming phone… both sd845… wub.gif so hype!!!

Oneplus don't have much additional apps so it seem like no bloatware, but it have many other services running, normally just the system running services take up around 3GB of RAM. In comparison Mi A1 system running services only take up 1GB RAM.

If I'm not mistaken OOS actually keeps a few apps (the Camera app included) cached in RAM at ALL times, hence the snappiness. Also there are certain other services like the screenshot editor, Dashboard and Dirac (which you can of course disable if you wanted to with root) - but yeah, while OOS is "near" stock, there's actually more stuff going on in the background than you'd think.

But heck, if you've got like 8 bloody gigs of the stuff that's what I'd do too (perma-cache system processes), and 5GB free left over is still no joke (3GB left over in the 6GB version is still a rather decent amount also). Plus most of the "extra" services are useful too, like the screenshot editor (which is hella useful IMHO).

Well at least they're not trying to shove an entire other "ecosystem" up our behinds (and the accompanying background processes) like certain other brands.

Well, back to my original intent, all I'm saying is while yes custom flashing still kinda sorta voids the warranty (especially with AP sets), it shouldn't be too much of an issue if you're careful, which you seem to be. So yeah, it's not really worth worrying about.

As for colour, yeah the Red one has a glossy back like Mirror Black. The depth of the color underneath is more like Silk White though, with shades of red, yellow and orange depending on how light hits it.

It's so nice, I would have gotten the Red myself if it came in 8/256 TBH lol.

I've received my OP6. Testing OOS for the first time........ the OS doesn't seem half bad, pretty decent actually. I might not need to use any custom ROMs. What do you use if I may ask?

I should also mention this A6000 either already comes with play, or google play was installed via an online google restore.

Usually local A6000 sellers pre-flash the global ROM (aka OOS) on our device (which comes with Play), because otherwise most A6000 units actually come with HOS (which does not).

As for ROM, I'm actually just rocking stock OOS 5.1.11 right now, rooted + custom kernel (Franco) and modded to my tastes though Nova, Substratum, GravityBox, and a host of other tweaks.

Haven't really had the urge to go full Custom yet TBH.

OP phones aren't region locked, fortunately enough. So yeah it really doesn't matter whichever way you go (unless upgrading or downgrading Android versions ler, but yeah that holds true for every phone anyway).

For now lar.

You still lose those 3 extra cellular bands that the A6003 has though, but that's about it.

Whenever I run camera app, almost all my frequent apps is cleared from the RAM. When I switch back to these apps I need to wait for it to reload back into RAM. Sometimes a bit frustrating. Maybe just the camera app need to use 4-5GB RAM.

OOS system RAM usage is no joke. My phone usually would be like 3GB for system, then 1GB for running apps. 2GB seems like not bad, but when see cached process page, 4GB is used by system and running apps then about 1.3GB is apps that's cached. So in reality only left about 600MB RAM for opening apps that's not cached. Some of my frequent used app is about 200-300MB in size, usually these apps that the system will clear from RAM whenever I open less frequent used app.

Last time during Nougat still not bad, OOS just use around 1.8GB RAM for system, start from Oreo it use additional 1GB RAM sweat.gif
Then start feel the RAM is not enough. I flashed custom ROM before on 1+3 and system memory just use 1.5GB RAM. Free cache still got 2.5GB RAM, enough to open few seldom used apps with affecting my frequent user apps. But I still prefer stock ROM, apart from the RAM management.

Tbh, after using Oxygen since the OP3, I dont think you would need to use custom roms or kernels. Not much bloatware that needs to be removed as FW is already slick and smooth enough. This is not OP1/OP2 times anymore. Oxygen has really improved a lot and it should be one of the leading FWs on android just slightly behind vanilla android. Btw, if you still wanna mod your phone, you can ask King of Root seng89. He has customer kernels for his OP6.

Personally, as far as ROMs are considered, I kinda agree. Hence why I'm actually running OOS 5.1.11 as base, and it hasn't yet felt lacking in any shape or form TBH.

Kernels, however, isn't as simple. I have a custom on for multiple reasons, some of which isn't just because of "speed" or "lightness", but more for the extra features an actual custom kernel provides (like underclocking, per-app performance profiles, specific screen colour calibration profiles, HBM, Wireguard etc).

But yeah, that's all pretty YMMV TBH, and it's probably not for everyone. So I'd still agree that there's probably no "need" for it, just something that's nice to have.

Similarly Xposed, but really if somebody ported Exi off to Magisk or something I'll probably dump it in a heartbeat lol, as I can probably emulate some of the features I need from the framework with other software already lol.

Yeb, I was totally surprised. I was pretty ready to get upset with notifications and popups whether i'd want funky feature 1,2,3,4 on/off. but no. I plan to use [ROM] xXx NoLimits 2.9.6 [OP6] ☆ Speed/RAM optimized ☆ [Magisk Rom] for additional optimization.

Check if the above set is A6003 or A6000. If its A6000, then might as well get the ori set from Mobile2go at Rm2299 with 2 years warranty.

Personally, as far as ROMs are considered, I kinda agree. Hence why I'm actually running OOS 5.1.11 as base, and it hasn't yet felt lacking in any shape or form TBH.

Kernels, however, isn't as simple. I have a custom on for multiple reasons, some of which isn't just because of "speed" or "lightness", but more for the extra features an actual custom kernel provides (like underclocking, per-app performance profiles, specific screen colour calibration profiles, HBM, Wireguard etc).

But yeah, that's all pretty YMMV TBH, and it's probably not for everyone. So I'd still agree that there's probably no "need" for it, just something that's nice to have.

Similarly Xposed, but really if somebody ported Exi off to Magisk or something I'll probably dump it in a heartbeat lol, as I can probably emulate some of the features I need from the framework with other software already lol.

Tbh, I forgot all the neccessary steps in rooting already. Never been doing all these since my galaxy s3 was sold many many years ago.

Yeb, I was totally surprised. I was pretty ready to get upset with notifications and popups whether i'd want funky feature 1,2,3,4 on/off. but no. I plan to use [ROM] xXx NoLimits 2.9.6 [OP6] ☆ Speed/RAM optimized ☆ [Magisk Rom] for additional optimization.
.. Care to comment?

Your phone your choice. You could try running different roms and revert back to the stock rom when your done with it. I would prefer to sit back and relax and wait for official updates OTA. Dont want to go through the hassle of modding here and there. But thats me, you might have a different view on this. Some might say, why get a Oneplus if you plan to use it standard?

I need the HOME button because I use the double tap to screen off. Oneplus didn't have any other method from screen to off it, during Oreo time I also have to use the normal Android nav keys.

Maybe they'll fix it with next update. You still using Pill nav keys or full screen gesture?

The only way to split screen now is have to press the 3 small dot on top of the app? Hold and drag doesn't seem to work anymore. Long screen is good for split screen but now more difficult to split screen.
*
Forgot to mention there's a small 'fix' for the back button bug. Which is to simply use another launcher.
I tried using the latest leaked pixel launcher and the back button works as it should. No accidental triggering the recent apps menu no matter where I press. So that's good, but when swiping up the Pil to access the recent apps menu the animation is a bit off, u can compare using both OnePlus launcher and pixel launcher the OnePlus launcher's animation is a lot smoother.

Maybe because I'm not using OnePlus launcher that's why didn't have much bug.

I try the OnePlus launcher and feel the touch registered a bit lag. And also need to wait the animation finish else the touch won't registered.

Edit: now I understand what you mean. I just tried the latest leaked pixel launcher, the lag quite bad. Compared it with OnePlus launcher, OnePlus feels much more fluid. But the launcher I been using is the Rootless Pixel Launcher, v3.7 to be exact. It is buttery smooth.

How to bring back Vertical Recent Apps Screen on the OnePlus 6

I tried it, and failed miserably. Once changed the Pie Nav bar will also revert back to Oreo but without the RECENT button, swipe up on HOME will not do anything. Have to change the nav bar to Oreo or use nav gesture.

(Update: Developers Picked) POCO needs your help to pick the next developers to get the POCO F1!

One of the reason why OnePlus have strong developer community support is because they give free phone to some of the developers. In turn these developers will create mods, apps, or ROM for the phone. Now Xiaomi also following this step by giving away Poco F1. In between giving away phone for modding community and Xiaomi’s Anti-Rollback Protection, I'm not sure which way they actually want to head.

It's been 5years I didn't use an android phone but according to my old experience the music widget on the lockscreen look bigger. Today I just got my op6 and thanks to the strongly recommended by my friend then I updated to pie. Then I find it's quite ugly to see the music widget so small on lockscreen 😅 I am using QQ music

Btw, I felt like I found back my first love right after I used the op6 😍 even tho I am using it as my secondary phone but seems like I can start consider to keep my ipx on drawer and use op6 as my daily phone. First thing I miss the most is to customize the home screen with my taste

Check the back of your box. The model code will be stated at the back. Could be an Indian set, if its A6003 then it wont be a China set for sure.

Personal I don't find the OnePlus launcher to be laggy, it's very smooth for me and I enjoy using it. Only problem is the back button bug or else it's honestly perfect. I suspect it's the OnePlus launcher animation conflicting with the back button that's why it pulls up the recent app menu.
Yup the pixel launcher and any other launcher will have that lag with opening recent apps. No idea how did OnePlus missed all these bugs.

Sometimes when i end a call, my display automatically changed to DCI-P3 mode although in the screen calibration setting, it still ticks at sRGB. Need to pick other mode and pick sRGB again to restore the color mode.

Anyone facing this on Pie?

No. I'm using sRGB as well and my situation is occasionally the screen becomes more contrast (not sure DCI-P3 or default) after unlocking the phone. It will return to sRGB after relock and unlock the phone.

Yes, the color becomes saturated, like DCI-P3 mode. I see. Didnt try that way before. Will try next time it happens again.

Seriously, the OP6 can be pretty nuts battery wise lol.

Even with all the OOS crap running in the background (+ my apps, 2GB RAM free right now), near-constant surfing, screenshotting, editing, charting, YouTube watching, WhatsApp-ing, etc on 4G+ (not even WiFi)... I just got to 7h 18m of SOT with 15% remaining from a single charge in the morning.

Which, considering the 3300 mah batt, Oreo (not Pie), the screen's not even being set to minimum (it's on auto, manually tuned up a bit even), all that crap running in RAM and the fact that I'm actually limiting my battery charges to 90% maximum to begin with...

Seriously, I wonder what kind of SOTs we could have gotten if OP actually stuck a 4000mah battery into this thing lol... brows.gif

Once upon a time, I had a good battery life with OP6, it was the best battery life I had ever seen! But.. lately, my feeling was betrayed. It was the day when I checked the battery sot, I was surprised, I was scared. I did not believe it in a sec. I checked it day after day, weeks passed, pie updated... Battery getting worse than ever. Oh... how I wish... it was still good since the day we met for the first time. I hope one day, the good ol'days will come back!

I'm actually getting a rather consistent average of 6-7h lately with my brand of "typical usage", but TBH I HAVE cut a lot of background stuff out and am running a custom kernel with optimised settings so it might just be that (but no "aggressive doze" or stuff like that though).

Have you flushed your caches after the Pie update? Even if it's mostly just placebo, apparently starting fresh (aka with clean caches) after my update to 5.1.11 actually made things somewhat better even prior to my customizations for some unknown reason.

Use backuptrans for Android to iPhone - there are 2 types : Androids to iPhone and iPhone to Android. For latter I felt wazzupmigrator is a cheaper n better choice

Do you mean pressing the X button on the recent apps when you say flushed your caches? I did it once after updated.. before pie I didn't even once pressed the button. But the battery was suprisingly good.

Err no, as in flushing cache/dalvik through recovery. I'm pretty sure stock recovery also has an option to flush the cache, but I can be wrong lol. Also, Pie might not work the same when it comes to caching TBH.

Also, like I said, I had to start clean (as in wiped clean) after my OTA to 5.1.11 due to some issues I had. Only God knows if that helps (it seem so though lol), but yeah, sometimes I think Android battery life is as much mumbo jumbo as it is actual scientifically provable methodology lol.

The easy way use greenify
*
I don't really use Greenify much anymore since moving to OP6 (and Oreo), as it seems AppOps + disabling things + my tweaked custom kernel settings is already enough for what I'd consider as massively improved battery life compared to my old H8 (4-5 hours SOT under roughly the same load scenario), which is already plenty.

And hey, there's always the built in "Advanced Battery Optimization" which is pretty much just a fancy way of saying "Aggressive Doze" (hence, in a way, Greenify)... but both of those kinda mess up notifications so I'm leaving optimizations on default for now.

Not sure if anybody stocks it TBH. Myself I got mine off SGFreshIdea. As an alternative there's the Nilkin, though it's a lot thinner (and thus more delicate).

The closest to the InvisShield is the Nilkin Amazing H+, but like I said be a bit careful when applying them as they are pretty thin as TGSPs go (they're 0.22mm vs the 0.33mm InvisShield).

The non-H+ you might not want as they don't have the beveled edges and feel rather weird, unless you're gonna use it with a thick lip case like the Spigen (which masks the straight edges in use).

Seriously, the OP6 can be pretty nuts battery wise lol.

Even with all the OOS crap running in the background (+ my apps, 2GB RAM free right now), near-constant surfing, screenshotting, editing, charting, YouTube watching, WhatsApp-ing, etc on 4G+ (not even WiFi)... I just got to 7h 18m of SOT with 15% remaining from a single charge in the morning.

Which, considering the 3300 mah batt, Oreo (not Pie), the screen's not even being set to minimum (it's on auto, manually tuned up a bit even), all that crap running in RAM and the fact that I'm actually limiting my battery charges to 90% maximum to begin with...

Seriously, I wonder what kind of SOTs we could have gotten if OP actually stuck a 4000mah battery into this thing lol... brows.gif

Once upon a time, I had a good battery life with OP6, it was the best battery life I had ever seen! But.. lately, my feeling was betrayed. It was the day when I checked the battery sot, I was surprised, I was scared. I did not believe it in a sec. I checked it day after day, weeks passed, pie updated... Battery getting worse than ever. Oh... how I wish... it was still good since the day we met for the first time. I hope one day, the good ol'days will come back!

I would say battery life is very subjective and dependant on the user and the type of usages the user has on the phone. SOT should not be used as a total estimate of how well battery life is. For example, I use my phons more towards handling incoming and outgoing calls, surfing, whatsapp and waze. So my SOT will definately be lower than someone who uses their phones for gaming, FB or features with a lot of on screen time. However my standby time will be longer. I could have around 1 to 1/2 days of stanby time while those who could use up 7 hours of SOT is 12 hours time.
So yeah, I will say SOT should not be the main criteria in judging a phone's battery performance as it is user dependant.

It's been 5years I didn't use an android phone but according to my old experience the music widget on the lockscreen look bigger. Today I just got my op6 and thanks to the strongly recommended by my friend then I updated to pie. Then I find it's quite ugly to see the music widget so small on lockscreen 😅 I am using QQ music

It's your QQ music problem, either it's designed to be so or it doesn't follow the latest API etc. I use Melon music (a korean app), also same cuz they designed it so. For Spotify, Apple Music and other players, all shows normally.

I'd agree it's not good taken in isolation as the ONLY criteria, especially as "usage" is really pretty subjective from person to person (my "light" can be somebody else's "heavy" - plus what I've got installed/disabled will probably differ greatly from another device).

But taken in context, like with me and the comparison that I mentioned before versus similar prior usage patterns on a previous device, it MIGHT actually work rather well as ONE OF the indicators of battery life.

In most cases anyway.

Especially when its so easy to just look up SOT and compare - though again with the sheer subjective-ness of individual use cases, it's really only good as a simple point of reference.

So, AS LONG AS you're aware of the shortcomings of basing overall battery life estimations on SOT, I'd say its fine for simple comparative purposes...

... BUT, if you're taking it as the "be all end all" measure of battery life... eyyyyy, I'd say you're correct in saying that it's shouldn't be treated as such - considering just how unreliable it is from a consistency between setups/use cases point of view.

But TBH, while we're on this subject, it's actually pretty hard to cross measure battery life performance in smartphones "in-actual-use" quantifiably considering how varied the use cases are for everyone.

Like, even if you resort to benchmarks like Futuremark or something, unless you're running a clean bone stock device, what's installed (and thus is running in the BG) on your device isn't gonna be the same as another either.
