OP 7 Pro Mclaren Edition - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

Does anyone think there will be a Mclaren edition of this phone? I dont want to buy the 7 Pro if in a few months a more powerful version will show up.

Doubt it. If you have noticed, all of the OnePlus special/limited editions have been a one and done.
Also, they are selling a 12gb model, so at best you get more storage. Can't see em doing a 16gb model.

And that's why it's the "Pro"!

Suppose youre right.

I can't see it. Makes no sense. They know 12GB is overkill as of now... What are they going to offer 16GB/512gb? I don't see it. What's with the Pro?

1) There will always be a "more powerful version", until we reach the limits on SoC gate technology.
2) What do you find lacking in the performance for the OP7P that you feel you need to wait? Really? I have my OP7P declocked to get significantly better battery life, and the declocked OP7P still would crush most other phones on the market.

I just hope they don't launch a limited edition red model, I'll be pissed! That's the only thing they could do right now that would bum me out, and that's aesthetic, not even performance.

I know my OP 7 Pro crushes the new Galaxy S 10 Pro and my wife and kids Apple iphone XS . They use my OP 7 Pro for all pictures that we take !

I heard they are launching Op7T Pro with 855+ , 120 hz refresh rate & better cameras in few months

Sounds like a future beast!

It won't have 120hz 1440p OLED as such a thing doesn't exist

An 855+ with a 5g US compatible radio is all I have heard is coming. For anything better, the OnePlus 8 next year will be the only worth while upgrade.

I'm with the op. Im waiting for a special edition. Every phone gets a spec edition. I'm sure it'll come out in September after the current back to school promotions end.

Looks like a world wide second 5G model this year...

any good 6"+ phones

so it seems that i have just about had it with my mate 7. if someone would have told me of the lack of custom roms i would not have bought it. having said that, its a new year with new phones rocking snapdragon 820!!! YAY!!! so, anyone know of any good 6 inch phones coming out soon? im currently looking at the Oppo R7 Plus and the ZTE Axon Max but like i said, im hoping for a phone with an SD820. anyway, any and all suggestions are welcome. thanks!
Just look at the news section of the XDA site. They're at MWC 2016 right now, looking at the new releases.
I have been looking at MVC I think this year was a huge disappointment. Vivo Xplay 5 was biggest surprise.
LG G5 was a nice concept..it is just that the LG lack totally any sense of elegant design.. it looks not good on the back..
camera and performance is probably good, but the battery performance is probably not good (and no I will not carry a extra battery in my pocket)
S7 I think they will suceed with most things, good battery life, best display..
Why I will not buy S7 is the price.. and Samsung software..I can't stand it..
I am not a huge fan of samsung design and form factor..
I regret I did not buy the Mate 8 in november now..I will now buy the Mate 8, the mocha brown version. I was so sure I would buy the gold version but..after much thinking..I will go with the mocha brown.
What's wrong with your M7?
I'd like a Mate 8 myself, it's a beast!
But I don't need one.
The Mate 7 does what I need. It's a nice phone.
If you want to update but your M7 is running ok, I'd wait a month or two and see what new models are released.
Well if official marshmallow had been released by now I might have kept the mate 7 for a while

I use Smart Launcher Pro. It's the only launcher I have found that properly supports full rotation and re-organisation of lockscreen and homescreen. I use it in landscape in the car and that one feature is a must have.
I removed the Huawei launcher. Just garbage without the app drawer. Why cripple the device so iSheep can use it?

CM12 or higher would be great
But so unlikely to ever happen and support all hardware properly

and this is why i will never buy another huawei phone...... at least not one that doesn't have a snapdragon soc. if only huawei released their phones with snapdragon soc's for north america.
Hey, give Huawei a chance. The hardware rocks, but the software lacks polish. Wait for a few more releases and I'm sure Huawei will release a phone with a software that's par with other brands.

I'm like you. I want a 6" display. And i'm bored by huawei roms. I want a snapdragon with custom's rom.
But with 6" display... Vivo was exciting, but just 5,5 finally.
Samsung A9 and A9 pro were great but not released in EU...
I'm really waiting for Oppo R9. Seems to have a 6" display like Oppo r7 plus but with s820...
At 9-th Mart will be present Huawei P9 Max - rumored 6.3" display.

this was my hope as well but it seems that the R9 wont have an SD820. from recent pictures it also looks like it will have a front facing fingerprint scanner which is a major turn off for me. it looks like ill have to wait to see what ZTE does.

I hesitated for a long time between the M7 and the R7 Plus , ended up with the R7 Plus and so far i'm very impressed , the official CM12.1/CM13 support is very nice , it has a Snapdragon 615 which is of course less powerful than the 820 but it results in an astounding battery life , lasting a full day and well into the second day. Good luck with whatever choice you make. :silly:

thanks for the advice. at the moment it seems like the R7+ might be my next phone. im still going to wait to see what zte has to offer before i buy anything. tbh, i dont mind the processor size as long as its a snapdragon and has at least 3GB of ram with expandable storage ill be fine.

Galaxy S8 / S8+ Software

Hello folks!
Does anyone have any real reports or experiences of how does the software on these devices perform in terms of speed and stability?
It's just interesting.. I think I'm not the only one who would like to hear of there's any.
S8/S8+ Performance
There are plenty of performance videos on youtube about the performance and speed of the S8/S8+ vs many different phones. The S8/S8+ is basically kicked all other phones in the nads.

It didn't look all that great against the $400 OnePlus 3T
Didn't look great against the iPhone either. Most phones don't though.

I saw that the US version is not doing that good. The carrier once, i think it was an at&t. The EU i saw with the Exynos chip performed very good even against the iphone 7 plus. But i think everyone will have a better view if he get one in his hands.
I have the 3T so will be interesting to compare, however I can't see the S8+ being as Dramatically poor as seems to come accross here, it will be fast and zippy and will hardly hinder you in such a way that you'll feel like you have been scammed lol

Exynos will again dominate the snapdragon. Makes me sick thinking about paying $1000 for the interior version.
949.99€ in EU market. Its really much, i would love for EU to have the US prices, the taxes here in EU are way to high...

OnePlus 7Pro Pricing

I know the $749 model pricing was leaked, and the one above that, but a $699 price was just a rumor. Anyone have any other sources that may confirm or point to a $699 base model of the Pro, or anything else related to pricing? Everyone can post it here
Some rumors saying that the starting price for OP 7 will be $599, but not sure.
Oppomart price

As per the benchmarks, Snapdragon is better than Exynos. The Samsung display is awesome, But now the Oneplus 7 pro display has been rated as A+.

OnePlus 7 Pro also has UFS 3.0 which the ill-fated Samsung Galaxy Fold would've had so now the OnePlus will be the first device released with this.

Yes, Samsung Galaxy Fold is a first generation foldable smartphone. we can't expect top notch specs on this. By the by as you said it is the only device which has UFS 3.0 till now.

Don't thinks so.
I had it for one week before get rid of it.
I can't handle those rediculous holes.
The position of power button is completely off.
Also lacking many features Oxygen will offer me.
Also a tone of bloatware as much one UI bring improvements Sammy needs to polished their UI and much less bloatware offers.
Navigation gesture compered to one oneplus offer is completely garbage.
Also I didn't like the yellowish white color tone of the screen.
No matter adjustable manual the white tone I couldn't find the ideal color for my eyes and taste preferences.
Note 9 white color tone of the screen is superior to those at s10 plus.

Should I upgrade from the 7 pro?

I've been itching to upgrade from my 7 pro. Is the 8t worth the upgrade? I'm on T-mobile, so my jump is available for an upgrade. I'm just not sure if it's worth using. That's where I'm gonna rely on you guys for advice. I'd either upgrade to the 8t or the Galaxy s20.
What is your opinion?

You'll get the snapdragon 865 processor plus android 11 out of the box and a better quality of camera along with 5g

You get a newer device that is more up to date. The SD865 doesn't feel a lot faster than the SD855 so you probably won't notice the difference. If you multitask or keep a lot of apps open at once. The 12GB of RAM in the 8T will be useful. Oxygen OS 11 looks like a lot more like Samsung's OneUI with the big headers and plenty of wasted space. Whether you like that or not, to each their own. The cameras from the 7T and 8 are practically the same as what the 8T has, just with an extra and debatably useless addition. 5G, if available in your area, might be worth it. 90Hz versus 120Hz, I personally don't see or feel the difference. Personally, waiting for the 9 is a better choice unless you want a new phone now. If you really want something new, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G has a lot of the same features and more, but at a cost of half the RAM for $50 less.

I'm jumping from the 7T Pro 5G to the 8T. Main thing for me is the flat screen. OnePlus accidental touch detection has been crap since curved screens made it a necessity. I'm happy with the performance of my current phone, but the screen curve and horrid auto brightness (due to hidden front camera) has really worn on me over the past year and a half (7 Pro and 7T Pro).

Buying 8T in 2022. Yes or no?

Yeah, I'll propably ask in a lot of places in xda
From your experience of being in the OnePlus family, is it worth it buying 8T in 2022? I can get it for like $522.98
Or any other recommendations? And is Oxygen OS good? I've heard a lot of bad reviews about it
Well the phone is worth buying..12 GB ram + 48 MP and a 4500mAh battery is an overkill
520$ doesn't seem like a great deal tbh, below 400 maybe is..
I dont feel like the phone is missing any features a 2022 phone should have. Camera is not that great (GCam can do some work) and apperently Android 12 is terrible (I am still on A11 because EU is delayed).
Idk what the Nord 2 costs for you, but if you can get it for 400$, go for that. I would say they are almost on the same level..
This is the last real Oneplus phone after this, all is Oppo phones ) I am still want to get this in 2022, most probably will get CN version and convert to Global.

For that amount i'll look to 9 or 9Pro (if you can find one with good discount).
