On some levels Id say OP7 pro is better for sure. Faster internal storage, faster overall user experience, faster updates, no camera hole, 90 hz screen. Its definitely cheaper as well if that matters
But the cameras (front and rear) won't match the S10, no external storage, only 256gb of internal storage compared to 512 and 2tb on S10. No wireless charging, no IP rating (bucket of water hardly counts) lol.
It will certainly not destroy the S10 that's for sure.

Samsung wins in the camera department by far
Now it depends what do you prefer

Yes I agree, The camera part of the Oneplus is a bit weak compare to the S10 series.

TL;DR: Go for OnePlus 7 Pro. Easy choice.
Personally I think Samsung's flagship devices are a waste of money. Before you read on! I'm not fully updated on all of what I'm going to complain about, so it might've changed!
To me, Samsung has nothing unique to offer, yet their devices are almost as expensive as an iPhone. Which in my opinion is insane. Samsung offers a ****ty version of Android that looks **** (think it actually looks better now than it did before), full of bloat; it doesn't even let you uninstall Instagram. Personally I'm not a huge fan of their self-made apps either. In my opinion, it would be better to spend that money on an iPhone, which at least offers something unique (being iOS).
When it comes to OnePlus. They seem to have a great vision when it comes to how they do things. One of the things I really like with them, is that you're allowed to root the phone, and you won't void warranty. Though, to lots of people, rooting isn't very major. However, their version of Android is very nice. It is close to stock Android, has close to no bloat. The bloat that it has, you can uninstall (with root). Their hardware is very nice, and now more than ever with their new OnePlus 7 Pro (OP7P). Then the price you pay is less than any other phone with same specs.
When it comes to camera, there might be better options. However, OP7P has a very decent camera, and when someone ports the Pixel camera app to work on OP7(P), it will (probably) improve the camera greatly.

I own both the 7 Pro and the S10+
This is coming from someone who hasn't owned a Samsung since the Note 4 and has owned almost every OnePlus device.
While the 7 Pro is a really good phone the S10+ is just better. The only things better on the 7 Pro is the screen scrolling, OnePlus gestures (best Android gestures hands down), UFS 3.0 storage, and screen off gestures.
The fingerprint reader is faster on the 7 Pro but the fingerprint reader on S10+ works when your fingers are wet, and you don't need to wake the screen to use it.
I do like the size of the 7 Pro (I like bigger phones) but in-hand the S10+ feels better, 7 Pro is thicker than the S10+.
Samsung's new One UI is nothing like the old Touchwiz. The S10+ has so many customization option it's not even funny. I have found no reason to want to root the S10+ (coming from someone who has rooted every single phone they have owned).
7 Pro camera is ok but the camera on the S10+ is good if not great (not Pixel great).

I had the s10 and returned it. The finger print sensor on it was not working consistently. Samsung has too much bloatware for me and didn't see a major difference from my pixel 2 xl. Only good thing about Samsung is Samsung pay. Op 7 so far I'm loving it. It depends on what you are looking for. I don't really care for camera and I'm not worried about getting some water on the phone. Also i don't use wireless charging. The specs on op7 are ridiculous for the price. Plus op7 will get the latest updates including Q faster than Samsung phones.

I have a one question.which the op7 display quality compare the s10+?

OP7 is water proof though, they just didn't care to pay for the IP-certification.

I have the ceramic 10+ it is lovely but I will say that the 7 pro looks terrific, Oxygen OS and the fast updates are tempting and I am not expecting Q anywhere near the 10+ until 2020. The camera edge is probably still just with the 10+ and the expandable storage too but other than that the 7 pro is a compelling package for sure, well almost…..
….For me though an always on display and wireless charging are important features, I could probably do without wireless charging but with them marketing it as a pro model it really should have been included IMO. As for the always on display with so many OEMs offering this now that there is no reason for me to consider OP until they do too. I get that some people do not rate this feature but me it has fast become a must-have.

How does the 10+ camera compare to your Pixel 2 XL? I've just come from a Pixel 2 XL to the 7 Pro and the difference is huge, there is a lot of hope riding on GCam turning this camera around - i've got a 15 day window to return the 7 Pro and it will be going back if there isn't progress on the camera front (and then possibly going the S10+ route if the camera is any better).

Well the main sensor is pretty good on the 7 pro, we don't know about the other sensors (wide, tele) though. It might get better in the future, because the main sensor is pretty good and the weakest part seems to be the software for now. Also, you can't film with the wide angle lens on the 7 pro, and we don't know if that will be possible in the future. That's the reason why I will wait 1 more month until I decide which phone I will buy. The worst case: I have to wait until Google releases their pixel 4 because I can't stand the design of the pixel 3 XL.

I have the S10+ and have a OP7 in the box right now, probably switching over.
S10+ still lags if not rebooted every couple of days for me.
Exynos camera is meh and so is standby time.
I like the S10 but it didn't live up to the hype, want a phone I don't have to baby
Snapdragon is a different story from what I've read
The OS and notchless screen are huge selling points for me.
Won't really miss wireless charging too much, don't use the SD slot as I have 2 Sims.

Agree, being shortchanged with the exynos has left a sour taste this year.
I'm just not sure I could lose an AOD, especially as the is no led. I tried before and it bugged the hell out of me. I am though still very tempted!

S10 is more versatile but the main camera in the 2xl is imo better.

I caved and purchased the OP 7pro so now have both and 2 weeks in and I am conflicted on the OP7 vs the S10+.
The OP is a beast and I have found it more of a burden to carry and use than my S10+, it also makes an iPhone Xs max look small! I have also missed the always on display, wireless charging a little but no big deal. I’d also say that outside the extra brightness of the Samsung makes it easier to see, again no biggy. I prefer pretty much everything else about the OP7 Pro though and one thing I have noticed (and have posted this over on the S10 forum) is how much better the radio performance is on the OP7, I think this may be more down to the S10+ being bad than the OP7 being really good but at my work for example the S10 clings to 1 bar of 4G and often drops to 3G whereas the OP7 is rock solid on 3 or 4 bars of 4G all day. I have also installed Gcam and it works really well.
I won’t comment too much on the FPS, both work ok with the OP being quicker and the S10 being maybe more convenient on account of not having to wake the screen first. I do though still prefer a rear mounted sensor like the Pixel which is IMO just a better, quicker and easier option.
Re the AOD I read that OP have said they are working on this but are still citing battery concerns, given how good and polished oxygen OS is I just do not get why OnePlus are finding it so hard to provide a proper always on display? Lots of other OEM’s have managed it, LG even managed it on an LCD screen. Anyway fingers crossed they are at least on the case now.
So overall it is a seriously good device, I do though wish it was just not quite so big.

Why does it have to be unique, I don't care about that? I care about it being a good phone, a well rounded one at that. It's hard to pack a lot of features into a cheaper phone, and often results in some corner cutting and that's what happened. The pop up camera is a DISASTER and all over China one plus has had to offer an apology and a slightly extended warranty, I'd never trust that and it collects a whole lot of dust around the top of the camera port when sitting in your pocket and such, regardless of the waterproof red ring on the top.
One UI is great, I bought the s10+ and never received Instagram, and not much bloatware at all, oneUI has almost no issues besides Bixby, which Samsung even lets you disable. OneUI has been garbage, but its great in this new phone, just look at what most reviewers have to say. The s10+ is way more well rounded then the op7 pro, which has some standout features but some pitfalls top. 90HZ is great but still isn't a huge difference and the battery life is quite poor on the OP 7 pro, I went to t-mobile and didn't notice much of a difference if at all, I did notice a difference with the 120hz razor phone though, maybe if you slow the phone down by 5x the 90 hz will have a big difference.
And you're acting like iPhones are a similar value, the hardware of iPhones in general doesn't even compare to Samsung, they're GARBAGE. Unlocked right now is a s10+ and a XR for around the same price, 880p LCD vs 1440p 4k OLED display, 18 watt vs 5 watt charger, 4100 mah battery vs 3200 mah, wide angle + telephoto lens, no giant notch and a bigger screen, slightly curved edges, headphone Jack, expandable storage, way more ram AND storage. Gtfo saying these phones are close in that regard, apple is only for iOS, why would you rather buy an iPhone. Without nova launcher, Samsung offers LOADS of customization. Also real world pricing is 29$ for a OP 7 pro a month with t-mobile which is the only seller in the US, sprint is 25$ for a s10+ with upgrade plan and all, which makes a lot more sense then spending way more to buy a phone outright vs only paying half price then upgrading to the latest and greatest phone of your choosing, keep in mind most people use carrier plans so this is the more realistic example. Oh and no wireless charging with the OP 7 pro, IP rating, headphone Jack, expandable storage, etc.

Biased much?

OP7P or S10?

In my region, the S10 is cheaper than the base 7 pro. I like both phones, but I can't wrap my head around on which one to get.

I would get the 7 pro OxygenOS is it's own custom ROM and OnePlus is very generous when it comes to hacking their phones

In my few days using the OnePlus 7 Pro I can't say for sure which one is better. It is close honestly. Do you rely on custom roms/root more of a main big time solid feature packed phone?
Oneplus is going to have more room for development as far as root and rom goes but Samsung is going to have more app support and many many more users.
Samsung camera hardware is solid. I miss my S10+ camera a little so far but not as much as when I missed pixel camera! I think the next few updates will be big for OPO and camera
Battery is very close so fair between them with a slight edge to the S10+
Screen, honestly this is my biggest shock where the Oneplus might take the gold here, that full unobstructed screen is great and bright and vibrant. Love that I can make my phone and laptop both DCI-P3 or srgb. Do not know why more manufacturers don't add normalized color profiles into their devices
UI is close, maybe a slight edge to Samsung because of a few more added features but then again this is almost personal preference
So as you can see they are extremely close in almost all areas

I hack my phones when the manufacturer drops support for it. I'm now more incline to get the 7 pro than the s10 now.

If you value camera quality get the s10. If you value a closer to stock Android expericnes and software updates get the OP

jumping from 6t to 7 pro

Does anyone have any regrets? I was really wanting to pick up a pixel XL when TMO started carrying them but for some foresaken reason it's not a JOD device. Trying to decide if worth it to get 7 pro or wait for pixel devices to be available for JOD..

Close your eyes and let OnePlus take your money. Get the OP7P and forget it!
You ordered it yet?

Only you know whether or not it's worth it. Myself personally, I switched from the OnePlus 6t to the Galaxy s10+ and then to the 7pro and this is the smoothest, beat device I've ever owned. The camera is a lot worse than the Galaxy but holy cow 256gb memory and 90hz is truly epic

Yeah with the 6T camera is good enough but not great

OSS v9.5.7 improved the camera greatly.

Go Pro and then enjoy Bro...

Install gcam, no regrets...

No ragrets on my end. Still keeping my 6T as an emergency backup phone. 7 Pro cameras are a big improvement from the 6T IMO, but with the Gcam apk I'm using, I'm getting stellar images for when I need to. The refresh rate on this display is one of the top reasons I got it and no notch/punchole too. I never use my selfie camera so this is perfect for me. I still with this had a headphone jack and Micro SD support but I know that OnePlus will never give us that.

Only mistake is I didn't think OnePlus could get better than the 6t... 7 pro so damn smooth.. Not choppy smooth... And that alone got me here

Using the 6T right now going to wait another year for the next year's oneplus model, may be in display camera/Fingerprint scanner that would be cool.

I've been enjoying mine over the 6T although that's not to knock the 6T in any way, it's still an amazing phone.
However, having an all screen display, symmetrical borders and QHD with a 90Hz refresh rate is enough to upgrade for me.

I picked one up today. So far I do believe it's a definite upgrade.

Any of you using the oneplus switch? If so, does it copy over the data with the apps too?

I updated from the op6 and it's a significant upgrade. The 9.5.7 camera improvements have it basically on par with the pixel phone hard on the camera comparisons I've seen on YouTube between the pixel and 7pro..
The ghost touches some were reporting (I tried and couldn't produce them) have been fixed and eliminated.
Just buy the phone and you'll not regret it.

Picked up the 7 pro from T-Mobile today. Used it out of box for a few hours and when I got home with it finally got to play around with it some more. It's now SIM unlocked and converted to international. Will wait a while before twrp and magisk. Overall happy with phone

No regrets whatsoever, love this phone.

People who dont like the pro are usually those who don't have it. Here it's a camera comparison with the pixel. you decide if it's an issue https://youtu.be/UA_CQ4UBgtg

Trade S10+ for Op 7 Pro?

I want to trade my S10+ for OP 7 Pro.
The following reasons why I want to switch to Oneplus 7 pro are:
1. QHD 6.67" amoled all screen, vibrant big and bright all screen. Nearly as vibrant as Samsung's screen.
2. Camera best Oneplus have produced. Images sharp with good detail, really impressed. Obviously not as good as Samsung's but for me good enough. I'm not a massive picture taker or selfies person. 4k 60fps super stable.
3. Loud dual speakers, again this is top notch. Not as full or rich sound as S10 plus but it's darn close. Another surprise.
4. Triple SSS performance (coin that one) - Super smooth speedy performance. No strutting or freezing experienced as of yet.
5. Near stock firmware with a few Oneplus touches. Love it better then stock android a actually
6. Quick updates to latest Android software.
7. Pop up camera prefer it over the hole in the screen, use it unlock phone as it's a cool feature.
8. That damn 90Hz refresh rate, boy ow boy is it smooth. This has completely spoilt me, it's fluid.
9. Snapdragon cpu which is better than samsung's exynos.
Do you guys think is worth the switch or i should stick with S10?

Do it

I did this exact thing a year ago and am still happy with my decision

Swapped it six months back and am happy with the phone at the moment. Screen is good. Software is snappy. Camera is a tad bad as compared to s10 plus but you can use gcam mod to compensate for that.
Battery is also better with custom kernel.

I miss a few
Namely this phone is a bit heavy as compared to s10 plus and the feel in hand is not as good as s10.
Secondly miss my water and dust resistance. Used to wash my phone after my covid duty, haha.
The last thing is the headphone jack.

The phone is too bulky and heavy.

Sounds like you have your mind made up lol. I wouldn't because it's basically a side-step instead of an upgrade.

Also root depending on phone versions (both the s10 and 7pro)

it seems like youve made your decision which is the right one .. go for it you wont regret it ... for camera if you install gcam i think it's as good (or even better) than s10 .. also you get used to its weight .. i'm using 7p for about a year and i'm super satisfied .. i just wish it had better battery .. (its decent but
i'd like it to be more than decent ) also i wish i would have chose 8gb or 12gb ram variant i'm using 6gb and ram management is not as good.. other than than i dont think i'm upgrading at least for a good 3 years to come

came from s10+ as well before getting the op7p. the most annoying thing I had with the s10+ was it heats like you can cook something especially if mobile data is used. best decision ever.

OnePlus 8T vs Pixel XL 1

My battery is dying on my Pixel XL, original version (Verizon). I'm looking at replacing the phone with a OnePlus 8T but according to the reviews, the pictures it takes are over saturated and the colors are off.
When considering the age of my Pixel XL, will I be disappointed? Will the pictures from the OnePlus 8T be better or worse than the ones taken with my Pixel? Has anyone actually seen a comparison?
I don't replace phones until I encounter issues with my current phone. I'm considering the 8T as a replacement because it seems to be one of the few remaining that is unlocked (TWRP), easy to root and selling at BestBuy for $599. I'm open to suggestions if there's another brand/model that I should consider.
Thanks!

I am not a fan of either pixel or onelus, to be honest, I REALLY like Samsung S21 Ultra, if thats expensive for u then maybe prefer Samsung S8, S8+, S9, S9+ cuz' those are classics

Thanks for the recommendation. I would never spend that much on a phone. To be honest, I have hated my S5, S7 and S10 work phones. Those have made me want to stay clear of Samsung because of the bloat and horrible cameras (S10's not as bad). It is interesting that you left out the S10. May I ask why?

If you use gcam with the 8t you have nothing to worry about. Its the stock cam that over does the effects. Also TWRP isnt available yet (possibly soon, in active pre-alpha testing) due to android 11 changes with decryption.

Very true Gcam is amazing on any phone

Thanks for the responses.
After weighing all of my options, I purchased the Pixel 4a (5G) even though I despise the Alphabet company. I REALLY like this phone. Excellent battery life, larger screen than the Pixel XL but smaller overall size, excellent photos, better performance, etc. The best part is that I didn't pay the "flagship" price but I still got a great phone. So glad I didn't fall for the "best specs" and "bells & whistles" trap this time around.
I ruled out the OnePlus 8T because I like vanilla Android and I shouldn't have to deal with botched image processing on a "flagship" phone and I don't like dealing with China based companies. I almost purchased the Pixel 5. So glad I didn't. The Pixel 4a (5G) truly is a great value contrary to what some reviewers have stated.
