This is the last ONEPLUS phone that we really love
They really went down a negative path in the eyes of the consumers after this. And I don't think they plan to correct themselves.
No, after 7 Pro the 7T was the bestttt "Flagship Killer" 😎
@@commandopml5695 nah 7 pro is still the best Oneplus phone that they offered to the consumers because of it's bezel less design at that moment
@Muthu Krishnan ok mate I respect your opinion end of the day After the 7 series OnePlus went down immediately

This phone is honestly going to be a solid buy from many years - A OP7 Pro user here
Totally agree mate👍 (OP7 PRO user too)
Planning on buying one soon😁
@@nizat5189 great choice 👍
There is no interest for switching to new mobile!
@@andreagallo7945 Thank you 🕺🏿
Watching this from my OP 7 Pro ❤️ The uninterrupted display is 🔥
How do you like the mediocre cameras though? 😄😏
@@maxroman2010 It's more than enough for me. I have a Sony a73 for taking photos 😏
I watching from 7T pro McLaren edition
@@maxroman2010 mediocre? Lol Install gcam and you got high end
@@rafaelochoasalazar9929 how
It's honestly such a beautiful phone. Will remain timeless in design.
Nice comment 👍 and true.as.well
What's so special about the design? it looks just like a lot of phones on the market over the last 4 years.
@@pp3k3jamail no notch no punch hole...
@@pp3k3jamail No notch experience is soo much better that it has spoiled me.
Full screen awesomeness.
And the build is super sleek and solid.
TBH while watching this video I realized that my phone (OP7P) is actually 2 years old. Its a beast of a phone, with great design, decent camera and great UI.
The 7 pro is still a great device, especially if you don't mind the pop up selfie camera. OnePlus messed it a bit with its recently Android 11 update but hopefully they can improve it soon. I miss the full screen without any holes or notches!
Im using realme X (popup phone from realme) if i ever wanted an another device.. then it is oneplus 7 pro.. the display is soooo mouth watering....
The industry stoped pop-up cameras.. that's sad 🙁
Oxygen 11 works very well for me although there is no compelling reason not to remain with the excellent Oxygen 10.
Not having a hole or notch in the diplay in exchange for not having a constant front facing camera should be plus for anyone not obecessed with taking their own picture...
@@willstikken5619 offcourse
The funny thing is this phone, when it was announced, the new camera was heavily marketed. There were photos supposedly taken by this phone teased before it launched. OnePLus always hypes how fantastic the new cameras are, but they never come close to living up to those promises.
Still rocking this phone, and haven't felt any need to switch yet.
can you run android 11 on it and have u experienced issues with front camera
@@Applejaxman yeah Android 11 is fine. The latest update is pretty stable. I just noticed some lag while playing videos, specially on CZcams, but that's about it. The front camera is good, no issues.
Same here. Great UI, decent camera and all day battery. Not to mention great LTE speed I too am finding it hard to justify an upgrade after almost 2 years.
@@seanysj85 Yeap. I'm a little bit disappointed with Oneplus themselves, cause they've changed a lot. So if the Pixel 6 pro comes the way it's been leaked I might switch.
I just got it and wish I did sooner. Was kinda afraid to put down my Galaxy but I'm so glad I did. I wanted something full screen and this does not disappoint
Given my limited use of the camera. Rear camera like once in 4 days, front camera thrice an year, I really dig this uninterrupted design. I wish more manufacturers would have adopted it.
Man oh man this series is one of the best on YT u don't know how happy I'm
totally agreed 👍🏽👍🏽
Icon pack name please😊
I got mine back in October of 2019, still runs perfectly like new, no issues at all with anything, battery is still all day battery too, love it! Absolutely no need at all to upgrade or change my phone. The curved display never really bothered me, and like you said, a case easily fixes that, which btw a free case was included with the phone. No complaints or issues at all.
P.S. This series is so good. Keep it up Mark!
Still rocking this phone and waiting for someone to bring out a phone to top it. So fast and good to use even two years later.
Today morning I searched for OnePlus 7 pro review afer 2 year video in your channel
But now after 12 hours I got notification 😍
Same here😀
Just started searching 4 a new phone 10 minutes ago and found this
Man, this reminds me of the time when I just graduated from High School and wanted I new phone but couldn't afford to shell out for an OnePlus 7 Pro so I did the next most logical thing and bought the realme X, it too has a no notch display albeit with a 60Hz panel
I've got mine a few days after its release. I still have it and I want to keep using it for at least one more year. I simply don't feel the need for an upgrade. I personally feel that it was the best phone I could buy at that time.
I love that they focused on speed, no other phone than an IPhone is this fast 2 years later
However I feel this becomes less and less of an issue because of the insane good chips these days
The 7 Pro made every 1+ phone that came after it redundant (besides the 7T).
Probably the best Oneplus till date from every aspect including price.I wouldnt say Oneplus 8 pro as launch price was high but now dropped a lot.
I changed the battery a month ago and noticed the big improvement. Feels like a new phone again with Android 11 now that some of the big bugs have been fixed
been waiting for this❤️
I'm using and still it's a beast in all aspects 👍
This was my best buy ever. Currently getting around 6h of screen on time with heavy usage. The only thing that I don't love is the curved display, but you get used to it with a case.
For the cameras, just get Gcam mod and you are good to go.
Can u pl send me Gcam mod link which works well with it
Ah this phone is class .
Thanks for another great video of Tech rewind.
I had been using it for the past two years until recently. The 4G one. It got updated to Android 11 last month (April) and then there were some issues for an otherwise a great performing device. The gallery reloading and higher battery drain were two main issues I noticed after the update. However, I sold it a couple of weeks back for 50% of the original price after using it for two years. It had been a great device for all this while though only slightly let down by its camera system.
PS: The screen on this device is the real gem. Such a surreal experience.
Same they ruined it with the last update. My phone is literally lagging sometimes and heats up and drains really fast I regret installing Android 11 😭
Switch to DotOS
I don't know why everyone has accidental touches with a curved display, but I, personally have never had any issues. And IMO, curved display's look waay more modern and gestures feel a lot better.
Exactly
At this point I feel they just mention it for the sake of it
It, like the cameras, is a standard theme that most commenters do not actually research.
Its my first curved screen. Trying to adapt. I dont have touch issues. It just seems weird that the image sometimes has the text bent to the edges.
@@trebleclef4889 oh yeah, at the start it feels a bit different, but u get used to it tho.
I absolutely love this series!
Honestly this was the last great oneplus phone , oneplus went down the drain after this phone
I have been using the 7 pro since release and absolutely love it. I have no idea why more smart phones have not gotten rid of the notch
Typing from OP7 Pro, loving it, performing without any glitches whatsoever!
Also weird you didn't get the update, perhaps related to Spring? I got Android 11 through regular OTA, running smooth as silk.
Watching from my OP 7 pro 😍 the last good OnePlus phone!
I wish you'd do this video after Android11 update, cause I heard there are so many issues happening to OP7Pro after A11
They're rolling out the android 12 beta already.. which means 12 will probably be stable instead of bug fixes on the 11
I'm not having issues with android 11 on my op 7 pro. 👍
I only had one issue ,, battery draining so fast even in standby
Mine gets hot quick when gaming since I updated to Android 11
No issues with A11
I'm still on OnePlus 5 and it suits really well for my day to day activities
Same here buddy and I have the OnePlus 5T. Still works great and I hope it lasts a couple more years.
@@mdtaylor2274 cool, sure it'll last bro.✌️ I think the next VFM phone from OnePlus could be the Nord 2.. Fingers crossed..
Same here too..I wish to change to oneplus 7pro but worry about the android11 updates...they say it will ruin the phone...its that true?
Subscribed for the tech rewind series!
OP7 pro User here, lovin'this, the cameras are great my guy
Watching this on my OP 7 Pro❤️ Absolutely love the phone after all this time. Such a fluid and amazing experience. The end to end display is the best. Bought it for 54k INR and still it's a great value for that money!
Feeling good watching on my 7t pro.
Mark your channel is rapidly growing 🔥🔥🔥. Wow
Loved my OnePlus 7 Pro. Had the Sprint version too! But I traded mine in bc T-Mobile absorbed them and I worried about update support going forward. Great video Mark! 👍
Yeah, this phone is indeed a long term solution. I had even attended it's launch event in India and purchased it too. Unfortunately, I left it behind in the cab and later some thug stole it away 😪
@@droiddevx03 And you never got caught neither!
@@droiddevx03 Lucky?
What about the dementors?
Hey Mark, Could you link us to that beautiful icon pack that you are rocking here?
Flat Squircle Icon Pack
What a great reviewer!! Nice flow of both rhythem and info and everything
Using it since 2 years now. Very happy
I'll still prefer this anyday over 8 or 9 series, it was launched at Perfect price point and a complete value for the money.
This One Plus 7 Pro 5G + GCAM has nothing to envy to the iPhone 12 Pro Max, S21 Ultra and others.
Oh yeah!
Mate you got a install link for android 11 ?
What should I install about gcam? Are there any specific modules or things I should install because I have the OnePlus 7 pro but dunno how to use gcam
@@Jass-13 No sorry
@@raymondqiu8202 Try to see on CZcams there are a lot of tutorials.
Great series. From the ones I have seen so far, you tend to give high marks. Next do a video where the device would score something lower than a B.
A video at the right time i was thinking of buying it thanks for making this
I have the OnePlus 7t pro 5g Mclaren edition. Still to this day one of the best phones I ever have. The display is the best, no notch or hole punch in corner.
It aged very well, especially recently update for Android 11.
Yah I still love mine. I recently got the 8t (last week) and sure its slightly faster but not enough to warrant the upgrade. This one fell in my lap for 250 Canadian
Carl left and so did the magic ✨
ive been waiting for this one!!!!! keep doing thiss!!!!!!!
Still rocking my OP7 pro but has already screen burns but still awesome 😃
Watching it on my Oneplus 7 pro!!!🔥🔥
I think that Android 10 is the best OS right now for OP7Pro , i downgraded my OP7Pro to Android 10 for better battery life and no heating issues. Also the camera quality is better in Android 10
Nice video bro 👌I like the series of tech rewind hope some more good old flagship mobiles we can use in 2021 👍
Great review man!
Any Oneplus 7 users here?
His little brother Oneplus 7 remains as my most loyal partner even after 2 and a half years.
Yes me too but the update ruined it
@@RRRR-xg8to the update ruined my wifi. It keeps getting disconnected
Me. But proximity sensor problem ruined oneplus 7 series
I need that wallpaper, Mark :)
me toooooo!
Wallpaper please🥰🥰😍
Excellent review
Watching this on the same phone .. I always love when my purchase decisions are validated.
I have a 7t pro. Still a beast. I dont see myself upgrading anytime soon.
How good are the cameras on a scale from 1-10?

Probably an 8. Not the best but very good.
Mark- what wallpapers and icon pack were you using on the home screen and locked screen? Any particular app as the source?

I love my OP7Pro, have had it since Thanksgiving 2019 and it's been truly a great phone. Can't wait until OnePlus makes another phone like this one (no hole punch camera, just all screen on the front)
Amen. 109% screen or no go for me.
I love this phone. I usually change phone after 12-15 months but I'm still rockin this phone phone after 26ish months. Battery life is still pretty good but I forced the phone to run 90hz for everything. Thinking of installing Lineage OS but worried I wouldn't be able to install some of my apps I need for work.
still my op7 pro is running smooth 🔥🔥 even after 2 yrs
Please make a lava lamp review
Great content man!
Still using mine and its AMAAAAAAAZING I don't think I've ever owned a phone this long that I wasn't itching to replace!
Happy with my 7pro, I'm not going to buy an other phone until camera under display comes to the mass market
Still prefer the pop-up with 100% uncompromised screen.
Ye camera isn't a big deal. I can jst install gcam and have a very decent image quality
I don't find him honest on the quality of the camera. I spent hours and hours back then watching camera comparisons between Iphone, Samsung 10, Pixel 3 and Huawei P30 pro. They all had pros and cons and the OP7pro was not that good at night but with its day poctires and the 2 other objectives it was as good as the others. And since the last gcam updates it explodes any phone from that year and even competes with actual flagships, ultras aside of course.
Bought a 12/256 model in may 2020, and hope to use it well into 2024. I like its camera performance as well, and I shoot 2160p24 only to edit/archive at 1080p24.

Yassss! finally the video I've been waiting!
TBH, I never use a phone for a long term (2 years) and never get bored about the phone, because it's OnePlus 7 Pro.

Bought it in July 19 and still rocking it 💪🏼
I'm using it still going great like it's so ageless , truly it was way ahead of its time .
I'm still happy with my Oneplus 7T. Bought it one year after release for about 500eur. For that price a really great phone! If i need to take really good photos i take my camera with me. But in daylight the 7T shoots really nice pictures! and all the rest is just great! Although the smartphone was released at the end of 2019, it already has a 90Hz display. Apple users can still dream of this today!
Hi buddy How is the battery life?
Having bought the 7Pro Mclaren just recently, I was concerned with the pop up camera mechanism failing. Glad to know that isn't a problem.
My One Plus 3T 128 still works too. Definitely comfortable with One Plus company. Looking to get the OP watch as well.
You can always replace it for like bucks
Watching this on my Oneplus 7t pro .. loving this phone
Awesome tech series ✌️
Too bad OnePlus has messed up the updates!
I'll be getting a samsung next,they are getting better with update cycles
Yea it's weird how Samsung match up with Pixel in terms of update atm or maybe even better since Galaxy now received std 4 years security update, 1 more year than Pixel phones. Kudos to them
@@obidean3964 matchup with pixel? They have surpassed Google! 4 years of software support and providing security patches even before Google, it's just nuts! 🥵
@@ankitgondalia 3 year upgrades and 4-year security patches which are monthly for the S series, oneplus pretty much sucks now, they are not giving aod to the 7 series
3 second shutter delay? No thank you.
watching this on my op7pro, with one year of official and another couple with custom i wont be upgrading this until under the display camera phone or some other full screen display solution comes up mainstream.
The hidden front camera does it for me as I don't take selfie pics. The curves on the screen annoy me. Still using mine!
I certainly love mine, but I'm starting to think about running Lineage OS to get more frequent security updates, and Lineage has always been awesome for me in the past. Great phone though. Hoping Lineage gives the phone longer life as Oneplus starts to ignore it (more).
This is the only phone I haven't replaced after a year. I still use it heavily and have no intention of replacing it anytime soon. Best phone I've ever had
Had mine since December of 2019 and still works great! No need to upgrade anytime soon.
I'm still using mine. I bought a Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra to replace it... Which I've just sold, and gone back to the OP7 Pro.
I use it for my Instagram and to record all my CZcams videos too.
Used the Oneplus 7 Pro until last month,bought it at launch and it still worked as smoothly as a brand new phone 2 years later even after filling up 90% internal storage. Upgraded to Oneplus 9 Pro now and kinda regretting it,cameras are better but this phone overheats so much thus performs worse than the 2 year old 7 Pro because it starts throttling as soon as you start doing some heavy task like playing graphics intensive games. Although I still have my old 7 Pro around (gave it to my mom after getting its battery replaced,so its brand new now) so I still get to use and appreciate the beautiful phone sometimes.
Not surprised that it still holds up as I'm here, still rocking my OnePlus 2 (LineageOS 17.1) that works lag-free till date. Also, I had dropped it a couple of times and gotta tell you it's built like a tank!
Just the battery has degraded over the 5.5yrs of its use and soon I'm gonna keep this as a secondary phone and am going with the Asus Zenfone 8 when it launches here in India.
Ayeee oneplus 1 user here, everything's great, got the battery replaced last year, lasts a day!
@@mukundgupta1533 that's nice. I wish I could find a replacement battery. Unfortunately the OnePlus service centres at my place said that the spares for all phones launched before 6 are unavailable due to the production being stopped :(
Just waiting for your video ❣️
Tech rewind has one of the best videos.
Plus the way you make this
I bought this phone over the 8 or even 8t because of the beautiful notch free screen and the camera. Laser focusing and optical zoom
Yeah I bought one at launch just to try something other than a Pixel and the only complaint I have is how long it took for them to push Android 11. The front camera mechanism has always worked perfectly. I've had the silicone case it came with on it since I bought it and even that's great. I can't tell you how many times I've dropped my phone and/or gotten it wet or even soaked. Still works as good as it did back then. This is the first I don't upgrade my phone the next year. I'm still rocking it and I'm perfectly happy with it. I probably will upgrade to the Pixel 6 though if it's as cool as they're hyping up.
Watching it on my OP 7pro! Just love this Beautiful Beast🤗🤗🤗
Completely agree with you about Oneplus 7 pro. And yeah i also felt the same about cameras and software updates. Nice video👍
The previous update completely ruined mine ( t-mobile variant) kept having to force reset because after it would lock the screen wouldn't turn back and became unresponsive, 2 days after that update and with it still with the issue, it ended up deleting all my data by factory reseting itself and the problem still persists! :/
loved the phone prior to that ( even with the bugs it had previously) but now I want nothing to do with oneplus out of fear...
Your problem is unique. Unlocked or carrier branded?
that wallpaper on ur device is really cool
Got mine like 6 months ago, this is an amazing phone, so glad I bought it! It does feel faster than any other 90hz refresh rate, and the 30 watt warp charging it's a bless. Hope it keeps getting updates (Waiting for Android 11 too :/). This will perfectly last me for 2 years more or less so I can change it for the 9 pro ;).
Same here still use mine.
Fixed the screen on it due to some screen burn in, and now it is my house phone. After buying the iphone 12 mini as a street phone the Oneplus 7 pro is the best media experience at home due to being the only bezelless 1440p high refresh rate phone that exists.
I bought this phone when it first came out in summer 2019. Now I'm still rocking with it. Great phone. Won't upgrade to a new phone anytime soon
For who are interested in this phone, can install Gcam and your worry about bad photography will be gone. For myself have been using Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 6P, Pixel 2XL was impressed with the camera performance when OP7Pro snap photo using Gcam and last year I've turned from loyal Nexus/Pixel user to Oneplus 8 Pro(previously I didn't really like Oneplus before).
