When a phone manufacturer forgets to check the actual phone 🤦‍♂️ *Slow claps*

Because you must always try to turn off and on again to make sure problem is solved

OP5? As the monitoring system?

@Linux one plus 5. I know, it's stupid. Should be abrrviated 1+5

That darn oneplus should give an update.

@Dacexi let's simplify that to 6

I don`t get it...? Has it something to do with the Facebook link?

Works well in Austria as you can see on that screenshot - the "Notrufnummern" was 144 - the local number for medical problems (we have seperated emergency numbers for firebrigade, police and ambulance).

I liked my oneplus one, but it was really noticeable that they cut costs. It did not receive emergency alerts, the 4G radio chip was sub par, and it rebooted randomly at times.

For budget almost-flagship phones I like Motorola better these days: The Moto G5, G5 plus and G5S plus are €180-€300, close to stock, easy to root/mod, have expandable storage and replaceable batteries, and are quite resistant against impact and water damage.

@Jop- Maybe I'm getting older and a bit less turned on by shiny features, but I really don't see a big difference anymore.

Typical flagship features mostly feel like unnecessary gimmicks. Display sizes are comparable, ultra high DPI is just draining battery faster. Memory and SoC might be slightly less, but I have yet to find any real world mobile app which underperforms on 4GB of ram instead of 6GB.

The biggest differences are in design, expensive phones look better with thin bezels, more glass and alumium and less plastic, but they're also more fragile.

@dsteiner A oneplus user from austria...? Servus :)

@cr78 Grüß dich :) - and yep. OnePlus 3 & 5.

@dsteiner Oneplus 3T here, darf ich fragen bei welcher it firma du arbeitest? :)

That's kind of scary! Are you one of the people with the jelly scroll issue, too? I've luckily been having nothing but the best experience from mine, and I'm coming from a Nexus 5X so the bar was set pretty high I'd say!
Edit: just realized that's probably not you in the post in the pic lol

I don't have that jelly screen

@dsteiner I wonder if maybe it was only the original preorder stock, or a software fix 🤔

Can someone please explain what the fuck this rant is about?

As someone above me here asked, is the fb link relevant?

Phones are nice though

@orangelightsabr weil I've pre-ordered mine. I am wondering if this has to do with the 6/8 gb ram difference

@dsteiner it was from the screen being upside down in the phone. What they did was enable a developer option to reverse the screen which made it lägg A bit causing "screen wobble". This could have been fixed in a software update but idk

@Dacexi yeah I knew it was from the screen being upside down, just don't know if they started putting them in upright or if it was a software fix like you said, they said it was a "feature" a first lol

@orangelightsabr no they did not change the screen as they would have to redesign the whole motherboard. If I had to guess they optimized the dev feature to fix it

so far I'd say it's been an unnoticeable sacrifice for me, best phone I've ever owned, and the only thing the OS is missing is caffeine integration and disabling those pop-up push notifications!
