If you look through some of the videos in this thread LG-V10 Lounge, one wonders if this was to be the N6P
I think not ....... nexus devices have never been ultra flashy ........ if anything the V10 should have been the G4
Didn't we learn that no one cares about auxiliary displays the countless times this has been tried in the past? They're irrelevant with the exception of flip phones.

Nah I don't think so. Google had 2 oem partners for this year for a while I don't think they brought Huawei in at the last minute to throw something together. In my opinion the 6P looks to have more development time put into it than the Nexus 6. And plus we had been hearing rumors they wanted to work with a Chinese OEM for a long time now

Correct however when the LG G3 first came out, there were rumors that LG would be making the next Nexus "super-phone."

lol, yes rumors This is the smartphone Google’s next Nexus phone might be based on
Seems these rumors panned out
For me the V10 has a lot of random things that I do not care about like the 2nd display, extra selfie camera.
They stuck with the same processor, camera and battery size. The battery size should have improved. The G4 had an amazing camera however the battery was not so good and the OS seemed sluggish.
Can the V10 camera app be ported over? The manual video controls are AMAZING.
I hadn't heard about the V10 until today, and I must say I'm debating my 6P purchase already lol. I mean, 2nd screen aside, I love the build and the video controls are incredible.
Interesting concept, but I feel like the V10 would have been too expensive to be a Nexus phone. However, the features this phone has, such as removable battery, SD card slot, excellent camera are all things I feel Nexus phones should have.

And instead Huawei should have got the smaller variant ?
working with Huawei ( a major chinese maker ) is important for google.
Huawei is known for making large screen 'phones' since a few years now.

That's just it though. Nexus 6 was $650 straight up with far less hardware then the V10. V10 absolutely could have been the Nexus 6P. Just take away the secondary screen and V10 is an amazing pure Android device that seems to be perfectly designed for Android 6.0.
Honestly I think I'm JUMPing from my Nexus 6 to the V10 next month. I'm tired of screen burn-in on AMOLED screens. My N6 has burn in in the soft key area and it's not even a year old yet. I'm not happy with Google not selling the new Nexus devices through carriers (after doing it for 6 years) because they instantly alienated so many Nexus fans. I'm tired of them not using hardware encryption, don't know if V10 will either, but if you talk up a feature and then half-ass it why bother with it?
Honestly, I find the styling and features of this phone more appealing than the Nexus 6P, but unfortunately, this phone will never get the same hype the Nexus will.

I also think google is trying to get a relationship going with these major Chinese manufacturer, this help them to connect well with the government, Lenovo, Huawei and a few other brands are important factors, and I think are government supported.

I don't know about the CCP.
But google wants to work with as many vendors as possible. its good for android and gets them even more people to mine.

Also cheaper to produce.
this should have been the note 5. other than the chipset it's right on par with what the note 5 does. if it only had a stylus...
I'm upgrading my note 3 to this after buying nothing but samsung stuff (lack of carrier updates had no decision in my purchases. and I don't hate touchwiz. I liked samsung stuff up until they went igalaxy on us).
true that. I was so looking forward to the note 5. Then they took out the sd card and removable battery....and after 3 models in a row of buying notes, i'm looking elseware. I do wish it had a stylus, but honestly I almost never use it.
Should have been the G4 really

So I am getting sick of the battery life of this device and charging twice a day just to get by... the QC helps but it isn't always a viable option for someone who is on the road/travels a lot. I am probably going to go back to my Moto G 2015 for the time being as I could get a full days use most of the time on a single charge and just selling my MXPE.
But now the question comes up as what to replace it with... Moto G 5th gen, Blu Pure XR, ZTE Axon 7 Mini, or ???
My requirements are simple, or so I think...
1) 4+ hours SOT, preferably 5+, in mixed signal environment of WiFi/LTE/3G and sometimes without the best signal strength (for reference, I currently get about 2.5 hours on MXPE)
2) 5.2"-5.7" screen with 1080p minimum resolution
3) Stock Android, "near" stock, or simple UI (no TouchWiz, EMUI, ZenUI, or other bloated UI) that allows easy use of replacement launcher
4) 64GB internal storage or 32GB internal+microSD
5) 3GB or more of RAM
6) Full AT&T network compatibility (GSM 850/1900 and LTE Band 2/4/5/12/17 and optionally 29/30)
7) Nougat or Marshmallow with a Nougat upgrade "guaranteed"
8) 3.5mm headphone jack
9) Dual band WiFi - 2.4 & 5Ghz
10) $300USD or less
Would be nice, but not essential...
1) Unlockable bootloader (implies root/custom recovery/ROM development community)
2) Front facing speakers
3) NFC
4) USB 3.0
Absolute no no's are Samsung, Asus, or Huawei/Honor devices.
What else fits these requirements that I am not considering?
I believe the one phone that comes to mind that would fit most of your requirements is the Axon. I took a break from the MXPE (when it flew off my roof and died a horrible death in a rain storm) and had the Axon 7 (normal size) for about a month. You will get NEAR 4 hours of SoT, a qhd screen, 5.5 inches, relatively light for metal body. Unlockable bootloader and decent dev for it, last I checked. Things that bothered me/ pissed me off were that DTTW was laggy and slow, the actual cell service seemed to be really bad, possibly because of the full metal body phone, and the biggest annoyance - no backlit capacitive buttons, so you were left sort of blind in the dark trying to hit buttons. There is also no way through the build.prop to enable the on-screen buttons to bypass the issue at night, last I checked.
LG V20 could be an option too since it has a bootloader unlock now, 3.5-4.5 hours of SoT. I think it has a bottom bezel speaker though, which is a little weird, and as always the LG software has complaints. The dev is good enough to get around that though.
I'm in the same boat as you though. I've been looking pretty hard to find a new phone and the V20 is the only one I am really considering right now.

Would love to... tell me where I can get a new OP3T for under $300... That one is a hard stop requirement.
@xgerryx Same for LG V20 and Axon 7 (which never goes on sale, although the Mini does often), the $300 price point is a big deal
This phone has been a little disappointing. It's good, but definitely not great. It's a night and day difference from the Galaxy S3 I was using, but I wish I had held out a little longer for the SD 820 phones instead of buying in 2015.
It sounds like you've already got a pretty inclusive list for phones that are sold in the US and meet your requirements.
I just checked swappa, and if you're willing to go used, the OnePlus 3 is starting to get down towards the price point you're looking for. It has the same size battery as the MXP, and between the more efficient SoC than this godawful 808/810 generation and an FHD AMOLED I'd think you should get better screen on time out of it. It's a OnePlus so it has loads of good development, so you'll have all kinds of kernel/rom/tweaking available to really squeeze every erg out of it.

If you happen to be SUPER interested in the V20, I have seen some go for like 310-320 on Swappa in good to mint condition. You gotta hound the seller though and keep track of it all damn day for when the price drops. Not an awesome experience but I'm waiting for the same thing myself.

I'm not really interested... TBH, my experience with non-Nexus LG Android devices has been... well... lets just say less then wonderful.
Although I would have to say that the LG enV from years ago probably ranks up there as my favorite phone of all time, back when you could actually get DAYS of usage out of a cell phone on a single charge. I remember I would charge it twice a week. lol

Yea I agree. After my terrible experience with the buggy LG G4, I'm very skeptical about going back again. At the same time I am running out of companies to try out! Haha. Gotta circle back eventually, especially on Verizon.

NEVER AGAIN!!! I refuse to drop $140 plus taxes and fees (realistically $160) for the service level I get now for $72 per month. Plus the limitations on devices, I would have to buy at least one new phone and/or go under contract. Nope, not happening. (Can you tell I have a grudge against Verizon, lol)
I would look around swappa for a OnePlus 3 or 3t it's worth it no bugs lag free and monthly updates it's already on nougat 7.1.1 and the beta builds they offer are great as well and development is great lots of greats ROMs and kernels and unlocking bootloader will not void warranty
TBH...I think you will have a hard time meeting all of your requirements right now. The market looks pretty dismal which is very unfortunate. I personally will hold out a little longer. I'm really looking hard at what Nokia/HMD are coming up with and hoping their roadmap for US devices includes a mid range device soon. So far their line up seems decent and if they are true to their word about expedient updates for Android, and they will sell devices with unlockable bootloaders at decent prices, I'll be sold.

Like @acejavelin stated, Samsung is not an option, and I agree with him. Yes they have great hardware for the most part, but a less powerful processor running vanilla, our near vanilla Android will run just as well considering the lack of heavy handed UX. I will admit the phone looks great hardware and looks wise, but I personally don't like the look and feel of Samsung TW.

Sammie's are to bloated... Every Samsung devices we have ever had has been problematic... Hope you enjoy yours though but I would never spend that kind of money on a phone.
I have a moto g5 plus as well, its pretty good. It's fast and smooth. Screen and camera are good too, but obviously not as good as the X style.
Yes mxpe battery sucks. I have to charge 2-3 times a day and am not even a heavy user. I know its more than your actual budget but better wait, save a bit more and probably the price will drop also and go for a OP 3T.
i know your problem man.. but why don't you wait for a nougat update?? why not? maybe they might fix up the battery drain issue!
there are barely very less phones which have dual front facing speakers.. market has got very saturated.. all look for flagship but they just don't think that having a good speakers is also a part of flagship project!
as per my personal opinion... this phone is just the best phone ive ever used (till 2015) but in upcoming era you will see more and more features
i will recommend you to wait and not hurry up to get a phone...
if you need a pure stock surely get nexus but just wait for new nexus phone.. maybe they might consider it as a flagship and the value might be cheap??
anyways if you're just asking for all the requirements my opinion (AXON 7) not just only for dual front facing speakers but also for the processor(sd 820),storage(64gb,6gb ram) expandable ovbio (256gb)
plot twist: has hybrid sim XD
but im legit that it'll be upgraded to android 'O'
but it cost around $350
think man.. public reviews are also good
it meets all the requirements but is as costly as mxpe

Nougat can't "fix" our battery issue... Radio and display panel are hardware issues and that's where 75% of all battery drain is. It isn't even issues, it's just how much power they use normally. The SD808's radios are terribly inefficient, and the display panel uses more power than some small towns. If you think Nougat is going to noticably improve active use time, your kidding yourself.
To be honest, I might just pull my old Nexus 5 out if the drawer and switch to it... The battery life can't be much worse.
The sound aspect is less important. FF speakers are nice, but as long as I can hear a YouTube video in an average room and turn the ringer up enough u don't care.
I bought the MXPE as an upgrade to my G 2015 and it was on sale for under $250, and for the most part it is, I just didn't realize how bad the battery was, it is easily half of my G.
I got Axon 7 after X and can't be happier. I've had the A7 since August. Has the front speakers i wanted, nice beautiful Samsung screen. Battery is definitely better then X. Software was buggy at the beginning but they have improved it a lot. Axon 7 has been getting a lot of updates, doesn't mean it'll continue, we were the 1st ones to receive 7.0 with the exception of Google devices, and we are the only ones so far (afaik) to receive 7.1.1 with also the exception of Google devices.
It has its flaws but i love the phone. For the money you can't beat it. It's on sale now on newegg for $330.
You know whenever a new phone comes out you just start itching to get it,
Well it's that time again
OPO6.
I've had the OP3T and i knew what i was getting for my money, Camera is important, but not as important as development modding and whatnot... Which is what really attracts me to the OPO6 and oneplus again.
What scares me is the lack of support in the US... I cracked my OP3T screen and it was a nightmare getting it fixed, the opo6 is even more fragile now with glass front and back (no i dont' care for wireless charging btw)
Please stop me from making this grave mistake.
Just do it!

It's not a mistake. The op6 is the best value for your money phone hands down and it competes with any other $850+ phone. If I wasn't on Sprint I would heavily consider it
Why is this thread in the Note 8 section?
Wondering this myself. I was waiting for OP to say they had a note 8. For me that would be no contest. I'd consider the OPO6 a sidegrade at best and less popularly but for me anyways, a downgrade.
I will also buy it, I love the OnePlus phones much more than Samsung phones ^^

I'm guessing it got moved because in your OP you didn't mention you had the note 8. I agree, Samsung took a lot of steps to lock down the snapdragon note 8 and it hurts the development. I keep my original pixel around for when I want to screw around with roms, rooting, etc. Personally I think the OPO6 has too many trade offs I don't like. Glass back but no wireless charging, notch, no headphone jack, no ad card slot. But I can definitely see how an active development community can make up for that. The Huawei p20 pro calls to me often, as does the Razer phone. And I would have similar trade offs with those but an active development community.

Sounds to me like you'd be losing stuff you don't need/want and gaining the community support you do want. In a world of $1000 flagships, the OPO6 is an unbeatable value for the hardware you get.
MF the note, get the op6 sir
Locked bootloaders and hamstrung development was what has kept me from Samsung in recent years. I have an S7 work phone and love the hardware, but the inability to cleanse it of Samsung bloat is grating. I stuck with HTC through three phones because of their dev-friendly approach, but the hardware issues finally drove me to 1+. My kid has a 3T and loves it even though he hasn't rooted it.
ik the feeling, I bought this one and I had the 5T which there was really no reason to, u just have to do it thought, I may sell my 5T so i figured i spent about 75.00 for the 6, so that is how i talked my self into it

Just wondering does anyone have any recommendations for a OnePlus 6 alternative in the UK/Ireland.I see the poco F1 is quite cheap but looks to have some issues.I would be tempted to sell my op6 for something good with 8gb ram/128gb room.Notblooking for used/refurbished phones though
If you already have the op6 and want a new phone It would be hard to recommend anything really...
Reason? - well, 2nd hand value.
You will only loose money, and for what? Basically nothing.

As good as the op6 is it does have some submissions in terms of sd card support, battery and especially if like me you have the 64gb version,less ram,less memory,
But I take your point certainly ,having spent so much on this phone,I am hesitant to lose more money so soon after buying it,but I am just entertaining the idea
I agree that storage is an issue but RAM? 6GB is already way more than what anyone needs on a phone.
If you want more space sell your current op6 and get the 256GB model. I personally don't like that is has no sdcard slot, but first they went after removable batteries and now they are going after the sd card slot. I purchased the 128GB model because I was looking for more ram down the road. The razor phone 2 has a sdcard slot but the screen is dated. I'm hoping there will be a push for thicker phones to bring back all the useful stuff. I still have my LG v20, but the LG software problems are getting to me.

Despite the fact people are going to be biased,I feel it's a pretty good question
to give an honest answer, what did you see in op6 that made you want to buy it in the first place?
Pixel or pocophone are really all I could possibly think of that would be about equal performance. I would take this phone over either of those in a heartbeat though.
LG G7. In the UK at least these are priced below the OP6/6t.
Absolute steal right now imo

Pocophone is a complete utter disaster when it comes to touch-screen latency and its experience overall. It's beyond atrocious. I'd recommend only buying Pocophone if you're 100% you can return it in a given time frame.

Reading reports about this but many say there's no issue which makes me think it's not widespread
I think I'll hang on to my one plus 6 for another year at least,but OnePlus need to start providing extra features like SD card. I'd be happy with the 6t battery too.Dont like the in screen fingerprint sensor though
I think your question is fine and appropriate, OP. If someone isn't completely comfortable with their phone, why not ask others in the device's forum this question in case there are others who feel the same and have found workable solutions? I was curious enough to read about what you were unhappy with and the responses to it to get click into the thread.
I'm happy with OP6, so I figure to have it for awhile. The LG phone is nice. But if you want to root, etc., your possibilities will be minimal compared to the OP6 and the Google phones, for example.

I would disagree just for the simple fact that LG does not always keep their software for their phones up to date. I have many LG devices phones and tablets, but I find the G7 and V40 to be weaker compared to the G6 and V30 during their release cycles. You can watch videos on youtube that explain this very clearly.
Not sure what weaknesses you are referring to ?
Yes the G7 is not as quick and the software is imo better on the OP6.
I'm not saying the G7 is better just that it is an alternative at a similar price bracket. The G7 ticks a lot of boxes too, wireless charging, expandable storage, always on display, IP rating. A lot of people rate LCD over oled too for being easier on the eyes .

Anybody like me waiting for the Oneplus 7 to update?
Saw the 7 Pro in a shop today and it looks nice enough but the curved screen edges just waiting for damage. Oh and the selfie cam, if that retracts fully in time when dropped I will be well surprised.
The 7 Pro was right next to a Pixel 3xl and the screens looked very similar if I am honest for quality.
Anyway, wondering if anyone is waiting for the 7. No idea how OnePlus are going to market it now after pushing the 7 pro for so long.
Me too waiting for 7, not interested in Pro, at the price point they are advertising will gladly buy it

If yiu have a OP6 stick with it, in my opinion both zre not worth trading.
I don't like the size and the pop-up cam on the OP7P and the OP7 (like the op6t) ugly and no notification led

Definitely not the pro with all the ghost touch issues most devices seem to have. The upgrade just feels to small from the 6 so I'm sitting this one out. Maybe next year, or I'll just swap brand entirely.

Why would you want to swap brands? And which brand would you consider switching to? For me the op6 has been nothing but a positive experience. The op6 has everything I've ever wanted from a phone (besides the notch) but that's the only thing, and I can wait another year for an all screen phone no problem :good:
nighter ...
just wait fo K20... the OnePlus killer

Will know when I swap, if I swap
Op6 is treating me well, on thing is customer support that bothers me. Seems they only care for those that buy it directly from them. Even tho if you buy it from a verified shop they really don't give a F.
A friend of mine had big issues with his motherboard, but had to go back and forth over 6 months. All they kept saying was reset the device with the tool they sent him. And so he did. Issues were still there (random reboots, sensors messed up so temperature readings was off..) I'm not sure how much 30 resets will help. Eventually the shop he got it from took care of it as a DOA (after 6 months lol)
Interesting times coming up. Baffled how they are going to market it.
"It's good but not as good as the Pro"???????

I love the OP6. Im worried it will be the last good phone they will release. For me it depends on how much the continue on their new track of not giving the fans that made them what they are, what they ask for. And obviously if they lock anything down thats a deal breaker. And the bloat is really starting to creep in.
Asus Zenfone 6 all the way....
Seriosly thinking sell my OP6 and buy this one.....
Camera on OP (even 7Pro) is a joke.
It's really disappointing that they are no longer marketing to the people who built that brand, which are those looking for a good phone at a good value. They are getting a big head, like Google did when they killed the Nexus line and started selling the MUCH more expensive Pixel. Now they are coming back to making the "a" line, which is essentially a return to the Nexus model.
I really believe that OnePlus would be best off making the best phone that they can each year for $450-499 and a $550-599 "T" model .
I left the Nexus line for OnePlus and was going to leave OnePlus as well after the 5T until the OP6 went on Flash Sale on GearBest for 379.
However, perhaps that's just how I need to buy them from now on. I will wait until the next model comes out and wait for the previous model to go on sale.
So I think I will wait 6 months for when the new model is released around Christmas time and buy the OP7/7Pro.
I have been tempted to get the Pixel 3A XL but the OP6 is still a better device.
