  • Finally done moving (again)! Here is the 48 hour review of the OnePlus 6T! It is an awesome phone and just kind of blows my mind when I compare it to the $1,000 range. It offers just about everything you could need.

      I don't know if Samsung is using their own Filesystem (F2FS) but, if They are, it's likely that Your Phone is Suffering from a Slowdown due to that Filesystem's inherent Design Problem:
      - it Trades "Long-Term/Overtime" Performance for a WAY FASTER "Out-of-the-Box" Performance. → Samsung (probably) thought it wouldn't be a problem as "People" would Upgrade their Flagship Phone for it's Newer iteration every Release or whenever They "Felt" Slower... (Every 2 Years?...) ← it's Stupid.
      *Solution:*
      *1.* - Make sure that You have the Newest Firmware Upgrade/Update available installed.
      *2.* - Backup Personal Files (and whatever Application Settings You can Export/Backup/Save/etc. That You want)
      *3.* - Restart into Your Phone's *_"Recovery Mode"_* (You need to find out what combination of _"Volume+Power"_ Keys work for Your Device somewhere Online)
      *4.* - Format/Wipe Your _Data/Media Partition_ (Erase/Factory Reset ALL available Personal Data You can there)
      *5.* - Format/Wipe Your _Cache Partition_ (if available)
      *6.* - Restart ("Normally") (Should take _"a While Longer"_ than a "Normal", Non-Reset Restart due to having to "Compile" All the Pre-installed System Apps and initialize the Android OS and it's Settings)
      *7.* - Finish the Device initial Setup however You want
      *8.* - Go to "Settings → Security" (or similar) and make sure that the Device is Encrypted (should be _"by Default"_ , but make sure)
      *9.* - Check for System Upgrades/Updates and then the Google Play/App Store (Open the "Play Store"'s Settings and press the Version to check for and install Updates to the "Play Store" itself) (better have WiFi for this)
      *10.* - Update All Pre-installed Apps (or Disable them - Samsung is infamous for it's _"Bloatware"_ ...) ← This includes (it's a "Must") Updating the illusive "Google Play Services" App!. - might need to search for it in Google Search engine on Chrome or something and open it in the "Play Store" from there... (You can't find it by searching *in* the "Play Store" itself - it just doesn't show up)
      *11.* - do a "Normal" Restart
      After Booting, let it Stabilize for 5 minutes or so to make sure every (System)(and other) App did Finish Booting/being Loaded.
      Check if it's still Lagging. - it shouldn't, hopefully...
      *Remember:*
      - Only install Apps (or Games) that You actually frequently "use"!. (Prefer Websites on Chrome whenever it's just "Sporadic" use, unless there's no "alternative"...) ("WhatsApp" for example)
      - The more Apps You have installed, the heavier and more "Laggy" it gets, even without the Filesystem's Overtime Performance Degradation...
      C Ya L8r then!. *;P*

    Thanks, Erica, now I finally know what this phone is about. Everyone was so stressed to get therir reviews up first that most feel rushed and not too deep. Yours, though only about your first impressions, is impressively detailed. ;) Can't wait to hear your thoughts as you test out the 6T more fully. I find it interesting that you don't have any gripes with the missing jack or notification LED and I'm really curious how you get around those little flaws. (They're not a dealbreaker for me, just curious) I have to say, I was really really looking forward to buying this phone in white. I don't care much for black phones.

    • @billyc3237
      @billyc3237 Před 5 lety

      I have to admit, once I learned that they did away with the notification LED, I almost did not buy the 6T. it was a big deal breaker for me as I had different colors for difererent apps (so I could know how important it was to check my phone). seriously, I didn't even care about no headphone jack as much i cared about the notification LED.
      after much research, I discovered this app called pixel pulse which wakes up the 6T's ambient display when you get a notification and it's highly customizable like how long you want it to flash the ambient display for before it turns off (to save battery--I have it set for 3 minutes) and also how long in between flashes (I have it set to 20 seconds). I am now a proud owner of the 6T. it is just too nice a phone to pass up and the app was an amazing compromise.

      hey, just saw your question and thought I'd give my 2 cents.
      if you're into photography & take a lot of pictures on your phone. love stock android and want access to constant updates. Prefer phones that fit perfectly in your hand i.e good reach ability. I think Google Pixel is better.
      If you're not too particular about anything. About photography, about sound, about features. You just want a phone with great performance, takes great pictures & videos, is stress free and fast with good ram management. Offers what other flagship devices have all for a more affordable price then I think the Oneplus 6T would be better.

      @@sonicthehedgehog1984 Thanks. The OnePlus is not officially available in Australia so it's much easier for me just to walk into a local retail store and buy the pixel 3. Mind you, starting at$1200 here I might wait to see if they drop in price at the end of the year sales.

      Is the Google pixel a really good camera? Yes
      ... But it's not that much better imo the Oneplus 6T will definitely take great shots... Plus it's video is better than pixel which has a bad microphone... Also the pixel is ridiculed with hardware and software issues (most can be fixed via software but it doesn't speak well when there are soo many issues).. Also in regards to the software.. The pixel launcher has been under fire cuz its navigation system is intuitively flawed... The Oneplus 6T fixes that...

      You might want to compare pixel 2xl vs the 3, depending on your criteria. How often you upgrade etc... Only bonus I would see in the pixel is speakers and camera. Otherwise, I personally prefer the alert slider and various silent modes as well as the ram. It seems like 6gb was ridiculous when I bought it, but my OP3T has zero lag (cpu tools show it utilizing more than 4gb of the ram, which is all most brands have), which I can't say of my previous devices Samsung Galaxies as they age. Also coming from Samsung, I like to keep my back button on the right (unless pixel added the option, it's on the left) I tried the standard left side, but it's annoying to stretch so far when I'm right handed. OnePlus has so many nice little additions like this that I took for granted as well as dark mode, which Google finally added to Android messages, so maybe the system OS too.

      I'm not even sure that's legal to be honest. If you buy something and you own it 100%, they no longer have any right to keep any sorts of locks on it. If they're willing to sell it, they should be willing to unlock it. You can talk him into unlocking it anyway. I did the same thing with MetroPCS once. Just said let me speak to a manager. Once you own it you own it. Imagine buying a house and the ex-owner not only keeps the keys but tells you you can't change the locks lol

And no, it does change a lot, like being able to charge your phone and listen to music at the same time. Just because Apple spread false information saying that it's old when Bluetooth came out in 1989 does NOT mean that you end up being a sheep and take their word as gospel. The community wanted the jack but OnePlus wanted the average consumers' pockets. So yes, they settled for less than basic functionality for more money through accessories - remove and create a problem and then sell idiots the solution.

      Refractions one thing, but if you setup the fingerprint sensor after you put on the screen protector, the only data it should ever gather about your fingerprint is what it's scattered through the screen protector so it should understand the refraction.
      We're talking about super clear glass that's less than half a millimeter thick in most cases, but I imagine you wouldn't run into any issue even if you got a matte plastic screen protector.
