Springy feeling Oneplus 6 - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

Greetings human beings,
I have this little issue and was wondering is some of you also have this problem.
When you tap the back side of the phone or you lay it down on a hard surface, the inside of the phone feels a little bit like a spring. it isn't an annoying issue, but it certainly is there.

Yeah tap on bottom right on the back. You will feel that spring . May be the vibration motor. But annoying yes

Yep, just like what my old Galaxy S3 did.

I can confirm this. I hadn't noticed until you just mentioned it. Doesn't bother me but it is likely the vibration motor.

I don't find this an issue I just see this as some random little thing you picked to complain about it's not even noticable unless you point it out

Front screen 'wobble'

I've had my touch pro for nearly two weeks now. I'm liking it a lot.
Now, in my unfortunate hamfistedness, I've managed to drop it. Didn't seem like it'd caused much of a problem.
But I've noticed that the front screen 'wobbles' a bit. Not much, and not enough to be particularly annoying, but I was wondering if there was an easy way to tighten it up again, so it stopped doing that?
Mine has done this from new.
With the device in your right hand with screen facing up the slide part of the screen wobbles on the left side.
Annoying.
Well, I must confess I didn't notice whether it did or not initially, so I'm only assuming it didn't.
It's pretty trivial, and doesn't really affect anything, but ... well, would rather it didn't, really

ok....mine too... but it seems most sliders have that. it was very tight the first few days, but after quite some sliding the screen is slightly off center to the right shifted. and it wobbles a bit.
my kaiser had the same issue....but i had to drop that one for that...
I too have the same problem. was wondering if one of the cases that has the keyboard cover would prevent this wobble or some sort of skin. Thanks and sorry for bringing back such an old thread.

Home button loose

Does anyone else have loose home button on their phone? It makes noises when you lightly tap on it and doesn't sound too good. I've also went to the T-Mobile store today and noticed my home button is more flush than the both display models they had. Anyone else face the same issue?

If it feels off go in and have them pull out a brand new one. When there in store. If yours feels off, have it replaced! I do this with any new phone. I tediously inspect it. If I think something feels off I have them show me a new one and compare. That way I can show them right then and there, this is why you're going to give me another phone lol

I have a feeling my front glass is slightly misaligned. Will be checking the store model to make sure, as the corner by the back button seems a bit sunken in. The frame definitely comes up over the glass a little.
I was just in the Samsung Experience Store and noticed that of the four regular S6s they had, three had loose homebuttons. The Edges seemed fine though.
My t mobile version is a bit loose as well. It feels like a minor issue but it is pretty annoying....
I picked up my S6 this morning and have noticed that a light tap on the home button makes a noise. It's annoying and it makes an otherwise solid feeling, quality phone feel cheap. I guess I'll try taking it back to see if I can get another one that doesn't have this issue.
The frame is suppose to slightly overlap the screen by the way
I actually returned my T mobile version for another, and the other has the exact same loose button
Well i noticed it after you guys wrote about it here. I have a S6 32Gig White, a friend has a S6 64gig Black version, i checked his S6 and he doesn't have this issue.
But honestly, it is not like i tap on the button all the time, you can only hear it if you slightly tap on it. If you fully press it, you don't even hear it. It is also not like it makes any sounds when moving the phone, therefore i am not going through all the pain to get this replaced just to receive another one with a loose button

Yeah, if I didn't have this Edge without the issue it might not bother me so much
I went back to the T-Mo store and their display model had it. One of the guys opened another one up for me and it too was affected. I ended up walking out with the phone I had. Not gonna make them open a bunch of boxes until they find one that doesn't. At this point the ratio makes it seem like the loose button is normal and any that aren't are the odd ones. Ah well.

That's unfortunate. Perhaps I'll keep mine for a while and deal with it then swap? Wait on a different production run or something.
Mine is nice and tight, but already scratched up. I mean my fingers are rough but jeez. Some soft material on there.
mine seems pretty solid, sorry to hear you should defintely bring it back

Well i was wrong about it not bothering me It started annoying me after you guys wrote about it...
I went to a T-Mobile store to check if the devices had the same problem, and yes 2 of them had, 1 did not...
Dunno if it is worth to send it back now and wait up to 6 days to receive a replacement that has probably the same issue -.-
P.s. After pressing the button down very hard a few times, the right side stopped making noises, the mid now also seems to be fine, it can only be heared if touching the very left side of the button...
Same issue here. The left side of the home button rattles a little bit when i press lightly on it. Should i exchange or is it normal?

Shaking noise from rear camera area

Hi!
So I've been using my Mi 4C for like one and a half month now. Since day one a noticed a shaking sound from the rear camera area whenever I put in on its back on a table or simply tap the area, is anyone experiencing the same? It is as if some part in the camera is moving a tiny bit, so it's not really effecting my use of the phone, it's more about if I should do something about it.
Im noticing the very same thing from day one. I thought it was just me having accidentally knocked the phone too hard to something, but since everything works without any issues, it doesnt seem to be the case.

I honestly thought it was just mine! Also noticed it from day one. I think I saw a metal shield over the processor area in a teardown, I am pretty sure that it's the source of the noise as it is exactly the spot where the sound is coming from. I don't thinj it is anything whatsoever to fuss about, but it does take some of the otherwise quality feel from the phone.
I was thinking the same thing, except from that the phone feels very "robust" for its price tag but since others seems to have the same noise I guess it's how it's "suppose" to be...
Mine has it too and my Mi4i had it also...
Doesn't happen here, I even place my ear close to the phone. Could it be a defect for one production batch that didn't happen on mine?
Mine too.
It's normal, think it's the optics. Had many phones with this. Including nexus 4 and a little bit on one plus one too.

You have to shake the phone right way in order to hear it. Seems like flat area up and down movement causes it mostly. Ex. If you put the phone on desk.
Alternatively that part may be stuck somehow in your device
Same here, it reminds me of the rattle in the iTouch 5G camera.

Done, I still don't hear anything. Why the hell am I looking for it anyway? :3
So from what I can tell from all of the answers the noise is obviously something many seem to have, but it seems normal and not harmful. If anybody happens to open up their phone they could maybe have a look in that area, but personally I think it comes from within the camera... (I might open mine up if I find a good place to buy the dark grey back cover...)

Need urgent HELP plz.

Hi all...
Could you check one thing for me pls?
Put your OP6 on a hard surface like a study table(mine is made of wood) and charge it. Take off any case etc. Also without any shoes or slippers etc.
Then run your fingers along the sides i.e. along the metal frame while it's charging.
Do you feel like a hint of current/electricity on your fingers?
I feel like the minutest of minute vibration while running my fingers.
But only when it's on a hard surface.
When I hold it in my hands, I don't feel anything.
Please kindly do this test and tell me.
Thank you.

Was that a joke?
Of course not, I wasn't...
That happens with MacBook too! I mean thats electrical discharge / leakage. Thats pretty normal. You might get a minor shock if you lick the metallic contacts or if the same comes in contact with your sensitive areas like elbow, belly and below that
Relax!

Not at all.
Same happens on my OP3, but it stopped after few months randomly. I think you shouldn't get the replacament unit, or at least i didn't because i don't live in a country that oneplus is officially selling devices, if you do and it's not much pida, go ahead, but you might get the same resultl lol

Basically
I just wanna know if this extra current can affect my OP6 or not?
Like battery life or circuits in the mother board etc...

Screen wobble?

Its just me or someone notice that the screen does move left/right a little bit?
Not much but still, that wobbling pretty annoying for me.

left to right? meaning on landscape, its normal because its the sliding behaviour.
but when it wiggles on both sides when in landscape. then its the sliding mechanisms fault.
i eliminated that using the Beatle case.

yes. common problem for users, i guess the engineers didn't taught it through
Same problem here... Very annoying but don't notice it with the case which is always on. Can't really send it back to China with a custom rom and get a new unit.
Just received mine and same issue. Not sure if I want to return it or not. I'm concerned it could get worse over time.
...its a slider phone...it slides
Haven't noticed that it gets worse yet. Constantly fiddling with the slider. Using a case you don't notice it at all.
Honestly can't believe this is actually a topic, it's a slider phone and for the ability to slide there can't be any friction (basic physics). So of course there will be slight wobble as is the nature of the design.
The Honor Magic 2 seems to slide without any wobble.

Duncan seems to think it's not possible to design a sliding phone with no wobble. I'm just pointing out that it is. Different phone, better design.
Hi,
Right there in France, my Mi Mix 3 wobble out of the box. A gap can be guessed between screen and body when hold through the light, may be half a millimeter.
Many people outlined this on Xiaomi forum, but not everybody knows this, others found it few weeks after use while fixation might loose a little.
Nevertheless, right now I can compare my Mi Mix 2 and my Mi MIX 3. The new screen is so gorgeous compared to the more yellowish and a bit washed Mi Mix 2 screen, and better balanced with its elongated shape. I am already in love.

A good solid tight case and the wobble disappears
