OnePlus 7T or OnePlus 7 Pro which is better?

Hello everyone, I want to buy a OnePlus phone & have to choose between OnePlus 7 Pro vs OnePlus 7T which should I pick? Please help me decide.

It all comes down to your personal preference.
Do you prefer a curved display or a flat one.
You want more battery capacity or you think the new warp 30t charging tech can make up for having a smaller battery..
Do you prefer a notch or you want to wow people with a pop up selfie camera.
Do you feel the slight improvement that the 855+ has is better for you..
Other than those things. Battery capacity, display, notch/pop up.. and charging tech the phones are almost the same and yeah that macro lens..
I'm on the fence on which to buy myself..

I just want to know how good is OnePlus 7pro's QHD display over OnePlus 7T's full HD?

7 pro's display is hands down one of the best display in the market right now.

If you want 256GB of storage you have to get a Pro. 7T maxes out at 128GB. Also the 7 Pro can be had with 12GB of RAM.

I would also add aesthetics...for me anyway...that back camera circle thing is just plain-ol-UGLY! The 855+ is a non-issue as I highly doubt you will ever see, or experience anything that shows one over the other. All the other arguments previously mentioned may be valid.
P.S. I have the 7 Pro and despite many who disagree with me online...I have tried both screen resolutions, as well as 90 vs 60 refresh rate....and there is just NO difference to me at all! (Let me get my flame suit zipped up here...) I am running all the latest software updates, I have had the phone for several weeks now, I have swapped the various screen settings many times with different apps....and...NO discernible difference!
I have wondered if by some chance the settings do nothing??? Maybe the screen is set to its highest available DPI and refresh rate and switching to the lower settings is not doing anything???
Or, maybe it is the other way around??? That the screen is set on the lowest settings and switching it to the higher settings does not really change anything??? YMMV
But I am telling you that the 7 Pro flies through anything and everything I throw at it. (I do not play games though) So, it is up to you! Boy it sure is getting warm in here.

Also, according to jerryrigeverything, the 7T suffers structural weakness for that ugly camera circle, the 7t he was testing cracked on the first stress test. While i am in no way a fan of the curved screen, i do appreciate a notchless QHD display.

One more thing which may, or may not be an issue for some...the notification slider button is smaller on the 7T than on the 7 Pro.

I would say for now the OnePlus 7 Pro for the win!

I have both. Right now I'm using the 7T as my daily driver. I like the flat edges but the notch is a little annoying since the apps cant use that space.

I would get the 7 pro. The curved edges and bezel less screen is amazing. 7t has an ugly back.

7 Pro also has a better display in terms of resolution.

I bought the 7 Pro about a month ago coming from a pixel 2 XL. The phone is great in every respect. The only thing that bothers me is the weight. This thing weighs a lot. ?

Any way for 90hz refresh mod?

Is there any possible way to install 90hz refresh mod ( present in Oneplus 7t ) on our Oneplus 7 ?
Is our OP7 supports that?
I saw some xiaomi flagships has such mods installed but why not in OP7 till now?
Any good reason?
Does it has anything to do with Fluid Amoled display?

Nonsense, it's hardware related, op7 screen only capable 60hz

you can't overclock amoled panel. though you can overclock lcd panel. i have used my poco f1 in 70hz.

How come Xiaomi k20 pro with super amoled display capable for 90hz refresh rate then? is this a nonsense too?

Do you know how to do it? Any links or posts or topics ?

There are quite a few 60hz refresh rate phones that can use the 90hz refresh rate. Currently I have not found a way to open the 90hz refresh rate on Oneplus 7. I tried this app to turn on the 90hz refresh rate, because Oneplus 7 has no DTBO, it has not been successfully opened 90hz. But this is not due to hardware.

I request any developer to develop a mod for 90hz refresh rate for our op7 or provide a process to do so that i will test on my phone..

I'm pretty sure there's a way to increase the refresh rate.
What we'll need to find out, when a Dev actually looks into that, is how stable is it, and by how much? And will it be convenient enough (battery, durability).
I really hope that the screen is actually as good as OP7T

Any news about that?

The app has been updated, but it still does not work for OnePlus 7.

There are many factors here.
For example: Mi 9 uses an 85Hz panel underclocked to 60Hz, that's the reason why this type of mods can easily enable this feature without any side effects (Ignoring the extra energy consumption of course), I don't know how Redmi K20/Mi9T screen is, but I assume it will be something similar.
Another important thing to keep in mind: OnePlus uses command-mode to control the panel (this method precludes any external modification that is attempted over the panel controller) while Xiaomi for some strange who-knows-reason uses video-mode (If I'm not wrong, Xiaomi is the only manufacturer that uses this method in high-end devices with OLED panels), and basically this method facilitates modifications to the the different dtbo's/panel controllers.
I don't want to break anyone's hopes, but currently I don't think anyone outside Samsung has the ability to change the refresh rate of this panel, these screens were strongly designed to work this way and only in this way.

Overclock Asus Zenfone 6's LCD screen to 120Hz ?

There's an article saying that Sony's LCD screens can be overclocked to 120Hz. I was exited because high refresh rate screen is my second priority right after proccessor. Currently, Asus Zenfone 6 has all of the features I want:
- Headphone Jack (I drop OP7T out of my list because of this reason)
- Great Proccessor (Snapdragon 855)
- LCD screen (I prefer true color as my eyes hurt when I use AMOLED display unless I turn night mode on, which ruins the whole concept of vibrant and beautiful it provides. Also, no burn-in)
- Almost stock-Android (further more, Asus seems to be trying their best with their newest UI).
- Full screen display.
Is it possible to overclock the screen to 120Hz ? It has an LCD screen, similar to that of Sony, lower resolution is not a problem since I'm ok 1080 at the moment. If it's possible, this phone will destroy all last year Midrangers. Hope that you guys will answer!

From what I can deduce from the Proton Kernel post https://forum.xda-developers.com/ze.../kernel-zenfone-6-proton-kernel-v1-0-t3963948 it's maximum overclocking capabilities are 75Hz but most panels only manage 72Hz without artifacts according to the most recent changelog.

Does Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro has the same screen problems like OnePlus 8 Pro?

Hello,
I have OnePlus 8 Pro and Oppo Find X2 Pro.
Under 5% screen brightness OnePlus has huge black crush.
They fixed it with beta DC patch, which makes colour accuracy hitting the floor.
Oppo has very small black crush on minimal brightness level.
Both Oppo and OnePlus have the same screen model (just differently calibrated - OnePlus has extremly vivid calibration just like S20 and Oppo has very good natural colour calibration) - but same problem:
between 5-10% screen brightness there is a step which is making everything tinted green.
You slide brightness from 1% to 10% and you will have colours like: ok ok GREEEEEEEN ok ok ok.
I won't accept 1k€ phone having such bad screen, so I am thinking about trying flagship Xiaomi,
can you go into complete dark room and slide brightness from 1% to 10 and tell me if the colours stays the same?
I also have S20 Ultra and iPhone 11 Pro Max - their screens are just perfect (iPhone has much warmer screen, very pleasing to human eye), but I don't like iOS and Samsung has pure garbage Exynos CPU in EU.

Interested as well
Any kind soul to check as per OP request?

I've tried it. Miu12 xiaomi.eu latest stable. No issues, screen colors remain very consistent. Let me also note that this phone/rom combination has a really good auto-brightness implementation. I've had numerous phones, this is the first one i never need to manually fiddle with brightness.
My only complaint about this phone (or miui) is its out of the box aggressive memory handling. Need to tune many settings of apps to not miss notifications.

Thank you for checking!
In the meantime I also discovered a fix for my Oppo screen problems -
there is an option called 'low brightness flicker-free eye comfort' and after turning it on the screen is perfect.
It is basically the same thing as OnePlus did (PWM/DC patch), but this one actually works,
while on OnePlus it fixes one thing and brake two others.
Long story short I'll be staying with find x2 pro, because of 12GB DDR5, 512GB UFS3 and
well baked ROM with good RAM management.
Have a nice day.
PS. Auto-brightness is indeed bad on Oppo, Samsung and OnePlus and it's great only on iPhone.
Another thing I'm missing with Oppo is wireless charging, but I'm OK with those issues.

Possibly a higher refresh rate....?

Just got my Poco F2 Pro a couple of weeks ago here in the States and wondering if anyone has had any luck on increasing the refresh rate? As soon as mine got to me, of course the Poco X3 would come out with the 120hz and a lot less in price. If not, no big deal, it's a great phone regardless.

For that, we need some developers!
Pocof2 pro is a great miui phone. That's all.

Screen overclocking has an impact on battery life and could cause long-term damage to the panel. I wouldn't risk it.

Xiaomi dev has shown 80Hz mod working but community still couldn't manage to make a perfect mod.
Probably kernel source is wrong? As we don't have any AOSP custom roms now.

Damage to the panel seems like a stretch. I've been running my desktop monitor, which has a native refresh rate of 60 hz, at 75 hz for 4,5 years now. Granted, that's an AMVA panel and not AMOLED, but still.
There's always a lot of hearsay with these things, but little solid data it seems? It'd be nice to see some experiences/reports of this with other amoled screen phones though.
