Using the 6T since phone launched and I Can tell you it's still very good , no lag nothing like that near flawless ( no battery issue)
how long does battery last when playing pubg bro?
I'm using 6T since 3 years now. It's so good. No lag, Good battery, fast charging works damn flawlessly....
My 6T seems to have fallen off a cliff in performance over the last two months or so ☹️
Saaaaame
@@luc5915 same here
Watching this on my 6T. Sidenote : it's is water resistant. I dropped it in the pool and pulled after 30 seconds. (2 years ago) still works like a charm
@ FreestyleGuitar, still rocking my 6T and it's working great with no marks on it as I always keep it in a case. Upgrading to the 8T but the 6T still a great buy 3 years later.
I have an Oneplus 6 and as well, dropped it in water and other different cases multiple times..no problem
Phone manufacturers: we don't cover water warranty
@@caidee same
Watching at my op6
Still rocking my 6T today as my daily driver! The battery life has decreased a bit but not a big deal since I'm stuck working from home and don't travel like I used to. I'm planning to upgrade to the 9 depending on how good value may be. Who knows, maybe keep this one more year!
Same. Also, there was this occasional lag after one of the more recent updates. Disabling Smart Boost fixed that.
Same here,was looking at the 8T but waiting for the 9 to see if the value is there
@@ganengchong 8T is great but it is worth the wait as the 9series is almost here. U can get better cameras & display(9Pro). ✌🏻
Don't buy oneplus now. I am using 7t and the software support is not good at all. Their priorities changed. U can check forums for that in community app. Still stuck on android 10.
I was gonna write the exact same thing..!
Been using a 6T for 3 years now. It has to be one of the best phones from 2018-19 in my opinion.
On a side note, Android 10 works better on it than Android 11.
Me watching this on my 3t : ain't that neat
Me on my 3 in the same boat😂
Seriously?? 3T???
Any issues??
Bro i am watching on 5 still working smooth af👌😀🙌🏻 one of my friend still using oneplus one😵😂
I am also watching on my 3T
OnePlus 3 gang rise up
I'd like to see the Samsung Galaxy S9 👀
Agreed
Maybe also include Samsung S9 plus and compare the two..
Yes. S9 plus. I am using since last 2.5years
Was just about to say that lol
she upgraded to the iphone 12 tho
I actually bought the 128GB + 8GB RAM version brand new in the box on eBay recently and I don't regret my decision. This phone is really nice even at 2021. Nice video :)
great choice🤘
how much did it cost
I had a oneplus one years ago.
How is the 6? Has a notification LED or AOD? Thanks.
Samsung S9+ ... great series ... can’t wait for the next review
Yes its still in sales in amazon
Still rocking my 6t from day one. Functions just like the day I got it, battery life still amazes me. Best device I have ever had, still looking for a reason to upgrade.
hey bro I’m from Albania and i want to buy a one plus 6t? How do you think? too buy it or no?
Been using a 6T for 2 years now. Really happy with it and I'll keep it for as long as it lasts. It's a great phone.
Old Flagship phones are better value than budget, midrange phones. Great Review
Yeah. Other than the software update I am fine with everything else. But hey flashing does exist thankful
@@PPSRHD I love old flagships but the battery life you get on today's midrange are even better that today's flagships! I'm in love with these new midrangers from redmi and realme
nah, you can buy xiaomi/poco/realme devices nowadays with great specs
But yes old flagships sometimes have those premium features unique for their time
@@FOXeye95 you can get them, but when it comes to build quality it's not close.
you get an all metal body, gorilla glass 6, water resistance compared to an all plastic, regular glass (maybe up to gorilla glass 3) and no water resistance.
camera and video quality is also incomparably better on older flagships.
a snapdragon 845 completely mops the floor with a snapdragon 662 (best chipset found in new $150 phones) and the performance is incomparable, new cheap phones can have great specs on paper yet feel sluggish.
what new cheap phones do have are ridiculous battery capacities, hell, they even mop the floor with new flagships when it comes to battery size, but then again a quickly charged 3700 ma/h battery should be enough for anyone. especially with a much better optimized chipset/os.
@@blackeesh463 you can get gorilla glass 5 , ip67 and a 8 series Snapdragon under 200e nowadays
Quality content, I was surprised when you said in this video that you are gunning for 100k I honestly thought you were way ahead but anyway great work!
Thanks for the kind words!
Been using OnePlus 5 since launch and it stills runs just fine! Battery life still holding very strong. Only downside is the camera is a little outdated now especially as it wasn't its strong point at release either. Can't wait for my next OnePlus phone, will be quite a jump since this one's been holding out for so long
Still using 6T in Nov'22... Working like charm with custom roms on Android 13
how did you install Android 13?
I bought 6t on first day of launch still using it and works amazing never had any issues, I'm gone upgrade 6t to 9 very soon...
On the 6t still... Love this phone it's amazing still many yrs later...
Poco F1 would be really interesting! The ultimate "flagship-killer" from 2018.
Facts.. never seen a phone of that value ever since.
My dad owns both poco f1 and op 7t
Still had it. Watching on it too. Still a beast after replacing a new battery
I'm still using poco F1 and it's going great performance is still the same although I'm facing problems with the charging port but that might be due to me using type c earphones
I have the Flagship killer OnePlus 5T and it's still amazing. I appreciate having the fingerprint scanner at the back with all the gestures. The face unlock compensates for it not being under the screen. I don't know if I will be ever able to adapt to newer OP phones.
Same here bro
Watching this on OnePlus 6T
And same here even I am using it since 3 years
Had some battery issue but still phone works like a beast
No idea of upgrading .
Impressed by how well the phone held up. Great video as always.
I recently bought a used Oneplus 3T for less than 40€. Installed the latest version of Lineage OS, and a modded version of Gcam (for better camera performance) and I'm amazed by how well it holds up in 2021.
It's and old phone, but both the hardware and software are pretty decent even for today standards.
But battery 🤦
I've had the oneplus 6t since it came out and I still love this phone, it's still fast... The build quality is top notch still because I've dropped my phone many many times and it's still like brand new... The only gripe I have with the phone is the speaker, it's not as loud as I would like but it works.
Surprised no one has release a hack/fix that will also play the ear piece speaker to give somewhat a stereo affect for a little bust
Samee
@@ctgottapee plenty of hacks for it
Still (30th of October 2021) have and use my OnePlus 6T as my daily driver. It's an amazing phone. Could not see any reason to replace it by a new one. Battery life is still good.
Recently upgraded from this to 8t. Love both phones. Enjoying the 120 Hertz screen and the super fast changing. Not to say the charging speed on the McLaren was bad. Having android 11 Vs the 10 on the 6t is definitely better. Plus the improvements to camera are good too especially ultra wide.
I still have the McLaren and finding it difficult to part with. But I like to have a backup incase I break or lose my main phone. I think overall the McLaren is my favourite android phone I've ever owned. My 8t has all the bells and whistles of a 2020/21 flagship. So the upgrade was worth it.
Great video. New to your channel. Hitting subscribe as you have intrigued me with this video! Peace
Thanks for the kind words Jay!
Nice review. It's always nice to know how well some of this phones age.👍🏾
Would love to see one for the regular Galaxy Note 10.
Using the same since 2 years and every word he said is as correct as I experienced. Cheers from India. 🔥
How much screen on time you get on avg. Im planning to buy a used 6t
@@arukshan7 even if you wanna buy a used 6t, don't worry about battery life, a new one will cost you 1500 bucks
oneplus 6t 8GB/128GB is working great for me. I broke my screen temper glass, so using now without cover. still no scratch and no any problem even after falling on floor. I play game alot, but still no problem battery life is so great. I am planning to upgrade oneplus 9, but not serious because everything looks so fine, dont feel any need of another phone.
iPhone Xs in 2021 ✌🏻,
Great video 👌🏻
I can't stand it my mum switched from that to note 9 there's no difference even after updating to ios 14 and on the other hand samsung slight upgrade made it's camera way better than xs max
@@swarajrajegore6897 note 9 camera isn't better I can tell you that myself had a s9 and camera was just decent xs is better
@@shannonrolle8749 you had i have it now as well what i said is after software updates Samsung made it better than apple and xs max stayed the same so compare it now you'll see
@@shannonrolle8749 Samsung always give superior hardware so that they keep pushing updates and then make it better as you keep on using it and apple stays the same I'm not saying apple became bad it just didn't improve as much as Samsung does after the updates
@@swarajrajegore6897 yeah maybe but at launch the xs was quite a bit better it could keep up with the pixel 3 but the pixel 3 got even better note 9 can't compare to the pixel 3 I own 1 now the camera on this can even go toe to toe with all 2021 cameras believes it or not
For me that’s not how mine aged at all😂😂 it now drops frames like crazy and the battery life is okay getting me 3 or 4 hours some days
Same and I have a 7t pro mclaren battery and heat and batteries handling is garbage on the phone 😂
I would still have my 6T but the charging port broke when I dropped it while plugged in 💔 but now I'm rocking the s21 Ultra
Using OnePlus 6 since 3.5yrs no hiccups at all as smooth as on the 1st day.. got the battery replaced @6$ and it's good to go for another year or 2
The only disadvantage with the 6T is the android version and Oxygen OS 11. I bought it back in 2018 December. Still going strong. Not a scratch on the back glass. I started to hate Oneplus after the release of Oneplus 8 series!
yea they dropped the ball after oneplus 8 series tbh
Is any any performance issue or a anything else after upgrading to android 11.
@@Ihsar60 Yes. It turned into a cheap Redmi phone.
I'd love watching a rewind on the oneplus 7t
Before watching the video... Yes yes it is... I'm still using 6t and still do not feel that i need a new phone
(I am a person who used to change phones each and every year this is the only phone I've stuck with so long)
Same 🥳 even still not upgrade atleast 1 or 1.5 year.. most probably next device is I phone or oneplus 10t
@@TheSujayModi same here!! Will probably go for 10 pro
Yeah it's really nice to use even in 21 , currently am using this 6t it's been 2 years and battery and smoothness everything is in good condition.
Camera and display simply superb..
Loved to be using..💙💙💙✅
My boyfriend's 6T died after it drowned in a lake in xmas 2019. Early this year, we found it again & just tried to charge it before we throw it away lol. To our surprise, IT WORKED AGAIN! I've been using it since then as my daily driver. No problem at all, it's crazy. This phone is awesome.
Watching long term review of oneplus 6t on oneplus 6t lol..
It'd be awesome to see OnePlus 7 Pro in 2021
agreed!
Godfather of phone 6T McLaren purchase in 2018 when launch in India
I'm still using ❤❤❤
Still using One plus 6t, still good using it bout 5 yrs now👍
Watching this on my Oneplus 6T, an absolute beast!
Me too...:3
2 saal se jyada ho gya fir bhi kya shi hai 😂
I own a 7t and I can see myself rocking that bad boy for 3 more years
How’s the battery now?
Plus are you on android 10 or 11?
How much time does it last
It's holding up good. About 5-6 hours screen time. I got it on Android 11 now and so far so good
Thanks for mentioning the Software support. I own a Oneplus 6 and the phone is great spec wise, but because of software support I wouldn't recommend anyone buying a oneplus smartphone (even the newer ones), if you care about security updates. The promised "Bi-monthly" security updates often take 3-4 months and Android Version updates or feature updates are rare AF.
Agree with your point
Yeah he completely bypassed that point
I own a 7t and till now 7t series hasn't received android 11.
Let alone when 6 series will get it
still using it.. no complaints (2022)... hey its 2023.. still rockin it
OnePlus 6T is legendary Device 🔥🔥
Please make a lava lamp review
I've had my oneplus 6t for almost 3 years, i've been pretty satisfied. It's still really fast and really a great phone overall, you can get a used one on ebay for $300 its still better than the new samsung A32 IMO.
Compared to the Samsung A32 5G the Oneplus 6t has a better screen, better CPU, Better Camera, Better chargeing, Better Video recording. The only think the A32 is better at is the Battery is 35% bigger and its 5G.
The battery i can tell doesn't last as long as it used to. Keep in mind Oneplus no longer supports the 6t with updates so you would have to install a custom ROM to get updates to keep your apps working but privacy would definitely be an issue.
I'd say yes. I miss mine. I dropped it flat on its back a few months ago and the screen went black. Best phone I've ever owned.
Watching on my 6T. I sometimes feel like upgrading to something new, but there is nothing wrong with this one at all! Still waiting for Android 11, though.
OnePlus 7T. The best OnePlus product ever made
@Zion Scarlett I am sorry but you seem to have absolutely no idea about the earlier OP phones.
Watching this video at the end of 2021 on my one plus 6t which I have been using for the past 2.5 years and I have had no issues with it by far. Although even I noticed that the camera performance has slacked a little and the colur composition of the photos is not as it used to be. Apart from that the performance wise it still works the same and no hardware issue. I even had no issues with the charger.
Its been 3 years I have been using one plus 6t it is the most successful one plus phone so far
No se english pero gracias por poner los subtítulos hay muy pocos videos de One plus en español
OnePlus 6T is best premium smartphone in India ☺️🔥🔥
Watching this on my 6T with Android 11. Bored to wait official updates, I switched to Lineage OS and there aren't downsides. ROM is clear and sharp as the official one, plus it's regularly updated with the newest Android release. Got this phone in 2018 and can still last years
How do u switch OS
The OnePlus 6T was my first phone after moving away from Samsung. I'm still using it, two years after purchase. It was and still is a good phone and has aged quite well. That said, the camera was never great to begin with and things haven't improved with software updates. The speaker and vibration motor aren't that great either. Hopefully the upcoming OnePlus 9 series will address these shortcomings. Everything else has been fantastic, the screen is still great with no burn-in, and the software experience is excellent, with no lag.
Use Gcam for the photo, it's top 👍🏽.
I love my 6T but God damn, the speaker sucks...I have to use headphones.
For 155$ you can't complain. And keep going !! this series is amazing!!
Love your video! Exactly what I was looking for.
My 6t is still going strong after over 2 years! Only parts that are showing their age are the sub-par photos in low light (videos are great though!) and the less than ideal vibration motor.
Looking for that guy who asks for "Lava Lamp Review"
Damn.. his comment is ri8 below of yours 😂😂
I'd like to know what icon pack you're using on that phone. Looks sick and clean.
samee please someone help
Here I'm there to help you sir the icon pack name is "Reduze"and it's available for free in play store 😁💛
@@imvino1302 thanks mate, much appreciated.
Enjoyed this video, good information in it 👍🏼
I have a launch day 6T from Tmobile. Flashed it to the international ROM and bootloader unlocked it the day THAT was released, and have been using it till today. I replaced the battery in the phone which was pretty easy. And battery life is stellar again. Great phone. And keeps up with everything I need.
It's embarrassing that even the 7 pro still hasn't received Android 11
@Hyper X I've always wanted to put lineage OS on my OP 7 pro. But everyone says it's to complex and can damage your phone. So, I never did it. Besides, I also have a pixel 4 xl.
Anyway, I'll have to take the courage and go for the custom Rom
Even 7t/Pro still not got it fuck oneplus
I have the 6T and still working as expected (looking at HW) for 2.5 years now, but OnePlus FW is a different story.
They have made too many mistakes in the FW lately resulting in screen not responding until you lock and unlock, Wifi dropping or halting in data transfer, Assistant issues and using old security patches.
They fix it in the following update (3 months later), but these mistakes are not necessary.
They focus too much Nord and 9 devices which seems to result in rushing the firmware's for older devices.
So in general very happy with the device, not so much with OnePlus when you reach the 1.5/2 year mark
Watching on OnePlus 8 ❤️
Nicely explained 👍 well done ✅
Love from India 🙏
I am using OnePlus 6t more than 3 years ...battery n performance awesome now also...very good phone... appreciate one plus team✔️👌
I would like to see a review explaining why Android 11 is taking so long to update go onto OnePlus devices and see if they have a lack of developers or something.
Me too
@@vishnurcu1948 I have android 11 now, on my nord, and it's pretty good
I love this series!!!
I am still using OnePlus 6T in 2021. Fully satisfied with the performance.
Same
Using it for last 4 years, it's still so fast.
When you see him review a 6t and you own a 6. Lol 😂 Great video tho! Keep it up!
i have a 6t but İ'd prefer a 6 tbh lol
i hv 6😝
So, would you recommend it? I'm thinking of buying one
@@ivanvaladezvargas6647 a 6? Now? No lol. You're better off getting a 7t new and b and h photo or something. The 6 will run out of updates soon in a few months.
@@ivanvaladezvargas6647 Maybe if you wanted one a couple months ago or something but no.
Love this new series!
I would love to see the galaxy s9 next!
First! 🔥👌🏻👍🏻 Great vid, Mark!
Agree on your take about updates, OnePlus community has been angry regarding it. Hope they could get back to their old self and fix all issues.
Thanks Drew!
Great Vid, I love my OnePlus 6T, I've had it since it launched and it still runs beautifully, and I don't see myself upgrading for another year or two at least.
Same here
watching this with my 6T 😁
can't wait to see the one plus 9
I just searching a new rom Suddenly I see this video it's true still rocking my oneplus 6T and thanks for reviewing
Hey mark i still own a OnePlus 6t and i just recently brought a new 9pro. But i still like 6t its a champ. Still works like a boss. The battery life is way way better than 9pro.
I've been loving using this phone since it came out, no lag issues whatsoever. The battery life's a bit effected ofc. I've dropped it a couple of times in water, once in a rain puddle and once in a shallow bucket of water, that was more than a year ago, haven't faced any issues which is pretty damn good for it doesn't claim to be water resistant. The only thing that has been a bit unfortunate is it's screen's durability, I've had it replaced twice and it did cost quite a lot in relation to its price. But again wouldn't have gotten it fixed twice if I wasn't fond of using it so much. Probably the peak oneplus device for the bang for buck it gives.
OP 6T GANG WYA?
I am still using my OnePlus 6. Honestly it has stayed pretty decent and continues to perform like a beast for my everyday task! Amazing video mate! :)
Love your videos alot. So simple and straight to the point. I had OnePlus 6T back in 2019 this rewind made me miss my 6T alot 🥺. Awesome video 👍🏼
I'm watching this on 6T. Volumes button stopped working. Battery not charging all the time when connected to power adapter. But for sure, this still works without a lag.
Awesome review!! I'm still rocking my 6T McLaren. Definitely recommend it to those looking for a cheaper but still powerful phone! Good point on the camera, it is pretty good but has the problems you've mentioned. I'm using the Google camera APK and it seems to work pretty well, better than the stock app.
I found the little upgrade to the McLaren worth it, since it was $30 more and that's just worth it for the carbon fiber case it comes with, great case!
They didn't IP rate it, but it's supposed to be pretty water resistant. One been washing mine with soap and water every couple days since the pandemic hit and it's been fine, so it's quite resistant to water ingress. The speaker sounds muffled until it dries though, takes a few hours.
The warp charger is great right before I head out and need a quick charge, I try not to use it too often though, I'm sure it causes more wear.
My well abused battery is seeing a lot of wear though, and it's needed more charges than new. I'll probably replace it to gain more capacity.
The hardware quality is amazing, it's still working like day one and I've dropped and abused it more than any sane person should.
Great review! Keep it coming!!
Cheers,
David.
Still with 6T and super glad but OnePlus latest models don't excite me at all
Agree with u , one plus 7 series is the last one which gives charm for one plus
Upgrading from the 6t to the OnePlus 10 pro this year. Oneplus offered me $240 for trade-in after 4.5 years of use, plus the $250 instant discount on the 10 pro and $50 for registering my phone on the OnePlus Android App with Free Pro Bud headset with the 10p purchase!!
I have a oneplus 6, got it used back in august. Love that thing. Don't get me wrong I'm not in love with SOT but I just carry around a fast charging power bank. It's nothing. I adore this phone's performance, screen, ability to play podcasts for forever without dying. Sturdy as hell and I'm occasionally dumb with it (drop it a few times, nothing crazy.) Love it.
i've had m OP6T regular version since Dec '18 and still performing strong to this day... couldn't justify upgrading to another OP device anytime soon... patiently waiting for it to be updated to Android 11 and i think that will be the end of its support lifecycle.. may upgrade when OP10 whenever that comes out though. Great review and SUBSCRIBED!
I still got my OnePlus 5 as my "spare"/ trap phone and it still flies.
Had to use it the last 3 months cause I broke my OP8pro and it was still extremely fast, responsive, decent battery life and that Dash charging always saved the day.
OnePlus always made future proof phones
I use my 6T since launch as my daily driver till this very day and it is indeed incredible phone. You can even improve the photo quality, by just downloading the Pixel Camera app and using that instead of the stock OnePlus one and then u really have a 2022 mid-range-ish phone. So if u don't have much money, but u want a very good phone, do urself a favor and buy this instead of some crappy 2022 low-mid range phone.
After so many years of heavy usage, the battery in my 6T starts to show a degradation, but is still super swift and everything (as long as u have 15+ GB of free space in storage).
I'll be parting my ways with this phone in 2023, because no king rules forever and 4-5 years with one phone seems enough to me.
With all that said, I'm 100% happy that I got this phone back then.
I'm using one plus 6t since dec 2019..still I didn't face any hanging problem....top level performance..worth for money...
Other than the slider it's waterproof, I've rooted mine and flashed lineagos for android 11 plan to keep for a few more years
Wow really nice series keep it up... good Goingg...
Congratulations reaching 100k +
Great review
Oneplus 7t pro, i am currently using it for 1 year, still a masterpiece. So i want to see how it works for other. Also ❤️ from 🇮🇳india
Very underrated youtuber. Love your videos ❤️❤️
I've had the OnePLus 6T Mclearen Edition since launch & still do. Only ever issue I had was the battery but after a replacement it's been flawless.
Using my 6t for 3 years now, battery had gone down. Rest, as good as new. Dint need to buy a new one for at least a couple of more years.
Camera could've been better.
I was really hesitant to leave my 6t for the 7 pro because I loved it so much.
