Let's hope a pre-order page will be up very soon!
Now' others will wait for it to come to eu
Great news about the B&O headphones. Previous reports said the US models wouldn't have the B&O tuning or the headphones. Hopefully we are getting the tuning and headphones both...
So now, you all just have to ask yourselves one question, in the realm of premium range phones, is this worth $800+? Setting aside the title of the article, at this point you need to ask yourselves what you want in a premium device and if it's worth it to you. For me, I prefer LG's software to Samsung's any day, and the refinements made to the hardware between v10 and v20 have really won me over. As far as the Pixel, I think that phone is a mid range device at best, and no one should pay that ridiculous price. Add to that the fact that T-mo offers me this phone as an upgrade, with an eip I don't have to get outside financing for, and I'm in as far as the V20 goes. The question is, are you?

Considering I think this phone is better than the more expensive iPhone 7+ and Galaxy Note 7, yes I do. I don't know why people would ever expect it to be cheaper than those aforementioned phones because it has incredible specs and features. It's elite in the phone world.

You're kidding yourself dude. This phone is not exactly better - care to elaborate?
It will have lighter software and thus run faster than the Note7, but NOT the iPhone 7 - this is not better.
It will have the worst display since the iPhone 7 is color accurate and brighter, and the Note7 is OLED with great accuracy levels dependent on chosen saturation setting, brightness, and perfect contrast - this is not better.
It will have the best audio.
It will have the best manual photo and video control.
It MAY have the best recording capability - I listened to a recording of a small concert in a public park, and a Note7 actually captured much clearer audio?... perhaps a software issue which remains to be fixed, but the V20 should theoretically provide better capability with its high AOP mics.
It MAY have the better facets to its camera - this needs a lot of testing. It may only be better in certain situations. It certainly won't beat both phones all the time.
It certainly won't have the best battery life - sure it has a swappable battery, but no water resistance either.
If LG charges $800+ they're going to fail. I don't want those ****ty in the box IEMs - I have $1,000 Shures - so that is not any justification for price.

Audio, video, IR blaster, removable battery, expandable storage, wide angle camera, OIS, EIS, Nougat, faster software than Note 7, shock resistant (much more important to me than water resistant), and the screen is fine. People freaking out over the display I think are crazy. Unless you're doing an A/B comparison, it's going to look fantastic. It's freaking Quad HD. The things I look for most in a phone are all here and are not in ANY other phone right now. For me, this is by far the best phone of 2016. And it should be priced accordingly.

Just my 2 cents i just came home from att and pre ordered.. I myself was worried about the screen but i played with it and it was great yes its not Samsung but i loved it.. Im on the nexus 6p and the lg screen looked better than my 6p..but thats just my experience..
Mine is a Platinum Grey, Got it from B&H for 650$, with freebies like AVODA screen protector & AVODA semi transparent Case. I also got the headphones which came in the box, where I thought non carrier G7s wouldn't have the headphones included. Awesome pricing by LG for a 2018 flagship, because, the upcoming LG V40 wouldn't be affordable for more than 6 months due to it's launch. Been a fan of LG for a few years such that other brands aren't exciting as LG and I will always stick to LG forever due to it's innovation (not copying others) & I hope future LG flagships wouldn't be underrated as the current. Was coming from an LG G4. Sadly LG doesn't unlock bootloader except on US & EU single SIM variants, so I might be one of the few Indian customers to own US Unlocked variant, (Very impatient that EU has root as well as bootloader unlock and it's been 2-3 months, the G710ULM hasn't got bootloader unlock!). Aware of the launch date of the G710ULM was on 11th July, I was expecting official bootloader from LG in 1 month's time i.e mid August 2018!. Did LG stop supporting US unlocked since the LG V30?? Because before the V30, the previous US models got official unlock!. I was on V10B on unboxing the hyped beast, now currently on V10F (Android Security Patch is JULY 2018).
THE FIRST IMPRESSIONS ARE AMAZING. ALSO MIND BLOWING.
The DISPLAY is super crisp, incredibly bright under bright conditions. Superior viewing angles with ZERO color distortion and screen bleed. Wow, kudos to LG for such a display. MLCD I prefer over to AMOLED.
The SOUND from the BOOMBOX speakers is stunning clear and loud, hardly some distortion at max. I also tested the DTS X 3D Surround when connecting to the wireless Bluetooth headphones. Wow it offers an audio experience that had stunned my friends who were foolish Samsung fanboys.
PERFORMANCE, One of the fastest in 2018, is the Speed You Need. not the overrated One Plus 6, I prefer the LG UX over Stock Android, it's close to Stock Android but with more features, the Samsung Experience or TouchWiz is ugly, laggy, cartoonish UI. LG UX for the win. The beast is smooth and snappy and will improve better with software updates. If the damned LG had unlocked the bootloader, the devs would give us custom kernels, play with the CPU Governors, imagine getting even better smooth performance from a rooted device. Also full control of it. Devs please allow us to utilise the beast with more freedom since we paid full price for it. I personally don't like custom ROMS like Lineage , a stock custom ROM with custom kernel together would be incredible. I'm waiting for root for G710ULM, waiting, waiting, waiting! (Settings/Developer Options/ tick on "Force GPU Rendering" & "Disable HW Overlays" makes the beast smoother, snappier.
BATTERY LIFE is incredible, yes I vary between 5-6 hours of SOT (also AccuBattery app states between 5.30-6 hours, so it's almost accurate), better than expected, a big 6.1 MLCD with WRGB display is supposed to be battery greedy, we all know LG optimises battery life, software performance, camera, everything better than it's competitors. It's no LED display, but LG did it's wonders. The charge speeds is just rapid, but it's no DASH CHARGE. A heavy user here, I have not noticed lesser battery life with Facebook installed, no complaints from a 3000 mAh but if I owned Galaxy S9, it's little worse than 2018's best. Wonder what will LG V40 gives?
CAMERA is smart and addictive to use, the stock AI cam understands your needs before shooting a picture, Low light shots? The Super Bright Camera at very dark conditions blew me, I have no problem with the principle the 4 pixels combining to UltraPixel resulting to lesser detail, but compensates to epic low light shots. Then I downloaded GCam from cstark27 at XDA, the details are even equal or better than the King Google Pixel 2 XL, I feel it can compete with the upcoming Pixel 3, who knows. The wide angle of the GCam (Google Camera) makes me go crazy, just love the LG G7 even more! On both modes, there's no loss in detail at picture zoom. Easily mind blowing.
The biometrics such as Face Unlock or Finger Print scan. They are super fast, not any millescond of delay. To my joy, I watched some of the downloaded videos from YouTube at 4K60 FPS, the viewing is insane! The Snapdragon 845 is a monster. Some of you complaint of LG's slow updates such no 4K60 FPS recording, I found it at video's manual mode, I hope for timely updates from LG, like smoother software, 4K60 at auto mode etc. I love the AOD, wished it was a little brighter, the quick controls of the AOD like torch is convenient. For a faster LED notification blink, app called "Light Flow" works well. If there was root, BBS app can help us find out the wakelocks, on what's draining the battery. So, people, stop complaining that your model didn't get root etc. Do some research and get either USA or EU single SIM from LG. Make the full use of it. Helps us understand our devices even better.
So this is the perfect smartphone before the launch of the LG V40. Period! :highfive:
Ha ha, you're such a buttlicker.

I have had my ULM for 5 months, which is me leaving the Pixel 2(not XL).
Battery life is/was almost double that of my P2.
Mine did not have the screen bleed issue i read about AFTER ordering lol
Screen quality is nice, camera quality sucks compared to the P2, along with if you are trying to grab a fast pic of something before you miss it, there is a huuge delay from the button to saving the pic. I have missed a lot of shots due to that.
Not happy that the ULM is STILL 8.0 and no root...Would love a root with a clean non LG rom
Aside from that, i still love my g7 more than the P2 (though the p2 Ui was more responsive and scrolling was smoother)
(although i have a P3 XL coming monday to replace the g7 lol)
LG G7 Thin Q features - how to?
1. Pls advise what texting app to use that has a "undo send" feature?
2. To sync the phone with laptop computer, must both devices be LG products?
3. Any suggestion for "calendar" that is NOT Google controlled and NOT on the Cloud?
New to LG, thanks for any help
Can G7 US version bootloader be unlocked?

you should definitely help us crack this bad boy then! Ppl are crossflashing with octopus box and I think we almost have the correct dll files for other methods,
We should be able to generate a false key after we crossflash then, flash our carriers modems through twrp. The tmobile thread is leading the way.

Does google pay works for you on ULM device ?
I've had my G7 for a couple of weeks taking advantage of the Google Fi Black Friday price (350) and upgraded from a Pixel 1. Form factor and screen is great however I still much prefer AMOLED. Its running 8.0 which does feel like a step backwards and security patch level is September 2018. The UI isn't overly burdensome although I much prefer stock Android. I also think the extra LG stuff slows down the phone as subjectively its just not as fluid. I've installed Pixel Dark theme and Rootless launcher which I prefer. I'm not thrilled with the sound quality of the earpiece on phone calls, probably because the speaker is quite small. I'd love to see this phone with an Android One ROM and maybe if LG ever releases a bootloader unlock it will happen. In many ways it reminds my of my old Nexus 5x with a longer screen. Perhaps I'll think better of it when/if LG ever updates the phone to 9.0 although at this point I view it as just a holding pattern until 2019 devices are released.

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.

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.

Biased much?
Watch the video here:
I was lucky enough to attend the OnePlus 7 series launch and got to try out The OnePlus 7 and answer the question who is it for? Well lets take a look at the specs first starting with the screen, a 6.41 inch Optic Amoled sounds fantastic especially at a starting point of only £499 but it pales in comparison to the 90hz QHD behemoth of the 7 Pro, plus there’s a tear drop notch which slightly obscures the viewing experience. Very similar to the OnePlus 6T in fact, however it does have a newer snapdragon 855 chipset with up to 256gb of built in storage and 8gb of RAM meaning the Oneplus 7 is no slouch and will perform like a beast especially with Oxygen OS.
Another major change from the OnePlus 6T is finally finally dual speakers, an omission that OnePlus fans have been craving for a very long time and now OnePlus has made good but in all honesty do these changes really justify upgrading from your OnePlus 6T and I would have to say no. Hear me out for a minute, yes the OnePlus 7 is using LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 3.0 2-Lane storage, the same 3700mah battery, a very similar screen with an in display fingerprint sensor and dual rear cameras one being a 48mp Sony IMX 586 with an aperture of f1.7 and the secondary camera is a 5mp autofocus f 2.4 sensor, as opposed to the 6T’s 16 and 20mp cameras. But at least the 48mp front camera is an improvement over the 16mp front shooter of the 6T.
The build is first rate and feels premium with the glass back and aluminium frame sandwiched between the screen and back panel, the dimensions and weight are almost identical to the 6T, It will come in the mirror Gray which you can see in this video but also a red version specifically aimed at the Chinese and Indian market which gives a substantial hint at who the OnePlus 7 is aimed towards.
To be honest the OnePlus 7 feels super smooth and lightening fast, but then every device from OnePlus does, running android 9 out the box adds to the experience and should help gain some extra battery savings.
So the question is who is the OnePlus 7 aimed at? Ok well if you live in North America clearly not you as it is not being released there, It is however being released in the UK sometime in June. Which is an interesting choice not to launch it alongside the pro variant but my guess would be this decision is to start pushing the pro which lets be honest can no longer be called a flagship killer as it is a flagship. If you have a 6T then this is not really a viable upgrade for you as I feel the OnePlus 7 is really a OnePlus 6TS, If you are coming from an older OnePlus device or are on a tight budget then I conclude this is probably aimed at you. Great device overall but not ground breaking, what do you think?
OP appears to be pricing this around $400-$450 in China sui it really makes me wonder what their strategy. Also makes it more irritating that they're forcing the 6T on us here and charging us more for olderb tech.
Leaves a real sour taste in the mouth for OP.
I'm looking forward to some real reviews of OP7. Coming from OP3T I find the device interesting, but there is a lot of competition at this price point and a lot of more expensive phones have become cheaper since their launch.
I find the 7 Pro too big, I hate the curved screen and the price is too high, but that's debatable.
My shortlist so far are Zenfone 6, Samsung S10e and Xiaomi Mi 9.
Even Huawei p30 pro has come down in price from 1000 euros to 650 euros, making it only 100 euro more expensive than OP7.
The 7 is the same upgrade as usual. The 7 Pro is another phone made for a different customer.
As always the 6 month upgrade is not worth it. For 6T owners the 7T will be their next worthwhile upgrade.

Design wise the Oneplus 7 is same as the 6T. But it has a powerful chip and better fingerprint performance.

And stereo speakers.
I import the OP7 to the US and I love it. To me, it's a vast improvement over the 6T, even the screen seems slightly better, and I'm not sure if that was really touched on. Love the stereo speakers, fast FP reader, speed and even the camera over the 6T. Transferring multiple and large files to the computer is also much quicker.

No issues. Super easy, just download the official update for OOS and flash from the official updater in Hydrogen OS using the local upgrade option. The zip just has to be in the root directory. After flashing, and rebooting, I did a full wipe to clear any residuals, and began to use like normal. The easiest update to official international software ever.

Totally agree with you. I've been really happy with the 7. It's fast and I just love the stereo sound over the 6t. Most 6t cases can be made to fit too. Just had to do a little trimming around the alert slider with some or around the camera LED on others with a xacto razor. I used the official 6T tempered glass on mine too because I could order here from OnePlus directly. That was a direct fit needing no modifications.

Good to hear, I've got some cases and tgsp leftover from the 6t. I've been excited about stereo speakers (without the mod) and ufs 3.0 storage speeds. Can you comment on any difference in speed vs earlier OP phones? Funny question cuz they've always been the fastest and smoothest phones in the biz, I know!
Have you rooted with booting twrp or fully installing twrp?

I didn't bother rooting because I liked the official software just fine because it didn't have any bloat. I just flashed the software from the official OP page in the Hydrogen updater. I did hear that some resellers are installing international for people though, mine had hydrogen os. https://support.oneplus.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4360
The phone is certainly faster, but it's not going to floor you over a 6t. It is much smoother than a 6 and a 5t which I still own. The UFS 3.0 however was much faster when transferring files to and from the device, I noticed that immediately. On the current update, I'm really happy with the camera too. They fixed a lot of the low light issued and sharpness issues in regular lighting. I think the screen is slightly better than the 6t. I know it wasn't advertised really, and I can't quite put my finger on it, but it looks and feels a little better. It's not night and day difference or anything, just a little better IMO. Maybee you'll recognize the same thing since you will have used both phones.

I had trouble with the fps on the 6t but I live in a dry high altitude environment in Colorado so dry rough fingers. Reports say the 7 is much improved. Thoughts?
Did your model come with standard US charging brick? What model number? From where did you order?

The fingerprint scanner really is more accurate. The only time I still have trouble is if my hands are slightly wet. I got the regular US type plug charger with mine. Mine was brand new and sealed from Oppomart. Mine is GM1900. 8GB RAM and 256GB storage.

Yes I've noticed the wet or recently wet hand thing on the fps of the 6t, like if I washed them and my thumb skin is hydrated for a short time before drying it throws the sensor.
I also have the GM1900 on order (eBay US seller never_msrp $539 8/256) and hope to receive a US style plug. Reportedly the Chinese version vs Indian or EU version which would include the different plug type.

My friend has 6T hence I just compared it. FP Radius is much improved. (Approx. 6T - 0.5cm and 7 is 0.7cm),
Also Sensor is damn faster. I bet it's equivalent to my previous OP5 front hardware scanner. 6T is much slow
I'm happy to see a lot of OP7 GM1900 users here. This is my first Oneplus phone and i really enjoy using. Bought mine from a seller in Macau for MOP3550($441) 8+256. No complaints so far about performance
Same here! GM1900 as well - got it for ~$482 though mine was already flashed to Oxygen. Noticed the OP7 forums much quieter than usual, I guess most of the attention is on the more expensive and flashier OP7pro which is warranted, but to me this phone is like "crouching tiger, hidden dragon" !
Hopefully more dev's jump on the bandwagon and start showing it some much needed love.
All I need now is Magisk + root + adblock!
Got mine for the same cost. Yes strangely quiet in here. Some confusion I think pre release before people knew there would be a Pro model. We definitely need more activity on this forum as this is clearly the superior phone
I'm going to be straight forward:
I'm a little sick of One UI and I really miss Oxygen OS. I've felt in love with the 90hz display and the almond color but I didn't really used the phone.
I have just this questions:
Which is the best in BATTERY LIFE?
Which is the best in CAMERA? (after the most recent update)
Which is the best in ERGONOMY?
Which is the best in AUDIO? (I don't care about the headphone jack)
People that have made the switch OP7Pro -> S10+ or S10+ -> OP7Pro, can you tell me your reasons?
THANK YOU!

I own both.
Battery: about the same maybe leaning towards the S10+
Camera: S10+
Ergonomics: S10+ (much nicer phone to hold)
Audio: toss up
I get bored with phones really easily so rooting the 7 pro does have its advantages but if you're not going to root the S10+ is just a better phone.

Is the S10+ better than the OP7 Pro using the Gcam? I can't install gcam on the S10+ because I own the Exynos model.

Hard to say as there are a lot of different GCam versions and so far I haven't found one I prefer over the stock 7 pro camera. The latest update really helped the stock 7 Pro camera.
Not to say a great version isn't out there for the 7 Pro but all the ones I have tried I prefer the stock camera.
I own the US Snapdragon version S10+ so no root for me either. Unrooted vs. Unrooted the S10+ has way more customization available. It's honestly the first phone I haven't felt the need to root.
This is coming from somebody who hasn't owned a Samsung since the Note 4 and has owned almost every OnePlus.
The biggest advantage is rooting, unlocking the bl etc.
If that's not important to you, you lose many features like
Wireless charging (I don't care tbh)
No IP rating (not even because of water, but because of dust. I don't trust OP in that regard, an ip rating would've been better - especially since the camera is a moving part that might let some dust in when the rubber is worn out).
No always on display (bummer for me, others don't care)
Filming in wide angle
And a very important point: The display of the s10 plus is the brightest of all flagships.
But rooting is very important to me, so I have no alternative to the OP7 pro.

1. With 90hz + FHD my 7P appears to be close to the US S10+. Mine has been used for < 24hrs, therefore I can't point out a winner. With my S10+ I regularly hit 10hrs SOT, sometimes a bit more with lighter usage or 7-8 with heavy.
2. S10+ with an altered gcam config will win, no doubt about that. I grabbed some sweet shots on mine. I'll test the 7P at some point.
3. In-hand there's no mistaking the premium device. Not to say the 7P is bad, it's just playing in another league.
My transition from Samsung to 1+ can be reduced to root, as well as longevity. Although it's also true that reception was awful for me, whereas the 7P posts better dbm values.

Unfortunately I can't use gcam (well, I kinda can but it's worse than the stock camera) with the S10+. I intend to use the OP7 Pro with 90hz and FHD as I use the S10+ with FHD.
Please, update me with some battery stats after
I was using Samsung phones since galaxy s2 till galaxy s8+. I switched to OnePlus 7 Pro for one main reason. Better display. First of all it is 90hz fluid amoled vs very good display on S10+ but:
1. 60hz
2. Punch holed
I know that some people do not see the difference between 60 - 90hz to be honest not sure why but maybe they do not want to see it and also I know many people think that punch hole is great option. I want to use full potential of the screen. I have returned every TV and monitor with single burned pixel. I just can not stand any form of notch or hole.
That is why I did not buy Galaxy S10+
If you do not care about phones display and you can accept punch hole and if you accept that your phone will start to work slower and slower every month( intentional phone silting) and you can not root it go for s10+
OnePlus made a huge impression on me with fluid work and it is very close to IOS experience which I had sometime ago.

I have both phones also and I have to say I prefer the 7 pro. The camera is definitely not as good to me, I think the 7 pro has a better battery life ( that may just be due to my personal use) for ergonomics, I'd have to give that to the OnePlus and for audio they seem about the same to me
So all in all I think if you don't care about pics as much then I think the 7 pro is a better choice. (Pics are essential to me so I need Both). My sim card is mostly in the 7 pro ( because I live rooting and have a SD s10+)

I'm not an owner of a S10+ but I switched from Pixel 3 XL unlocked to the TMobile OnePlus 7 Pro. My best friend has the S10+ and we've done our version of a comparison. The only follow up question for you would be if your OnePlus device will be carrier locked or unlocked. If you want the 90hz refresh rate and the Oxygen OS is your cup of tea and your device will be unlocked, then I'd say go for it. Honestly those 2 things are the real difference. Yes you get the fnatic mode with the unlocked OP7Pro, as well and more RAM (if you opt for the 12GB version) but those things are minor. If your OP7Pro will be carrier locked, and rooting/unlocking the bootloader is not your jam, then I would absolutely NOT switch over to the S10+. Honestly my only regret about the OP7Pro is the fact that it's carrier locked. If I could go back, I would've purchased it unlocked for sure.

It really comes down to the experience you're after. I'm currently using a Note 9 and while it's a great all around phone, Samsung's OneUI really detracts from the Android experience. It took a lot of tweaks to get everything running fast and smoothly.
The advantage of the OnePlus 7 Pro is you're getting a near stock Android experience and the ability to root and install custom ROMs. Sure, the camera may not be as good, but reviewers are saying the most recent update makes the camera quite good.
It's a tough choice for sure. The Samsung gives you a complete solution out of the box with wireless charging and headphone jack. The OnePlus gives you a cleaner, smoother software experience.

It's a tough choice for sure. The Samsung gives you a complete solution out of the box with wireless charging and headphone jack. The OnePlus gives you a cleaner, smoother software experience.

The Pie update with OneUI is why I got rid of my Note 9. It doesn't matter how good a device is. It can easily be ruined by a terrible software experience.
Iv'e switched from an Exynos S9+, had some screen burn in's that wasen't covered by warrenty.
The 1+7 Pro is a real beast when it comes down to performance. As we don't have SD versions of the Galaxy devices in my country.
Also, i diden't used any of the "extra" features like wireless charging etc'.
Not to mention most of sammy's apps...
Iv'e traded my S9+ and got a really good deal on the 1+. My plan was to wait for the note 10, but the price would be really too much, since i upgrade annually.
