Yeah bcs its a phone not interesting enough for a two part if it didnt have that (faded) OnePlus branding. Neither was 10 Pro. Also they both broke. So take your pick as the reason.
Looking to what basic mistakes phone companies are repeating these days, I find it first priority to see tests like these before buying the phone for myself.
I think budd if u take this channel as a priority whennu buy phones ull never buy any lol.... U can watch one this video or maybe for some phone that u believe iys sttong but basiclly this type of test at the end is uselless.... Can undestand glass test coz u can have keys in a pocket or maybe scratch test at a side and at a back of phone but really burning it and to tryin to aplit it on half....its idiotic tbh.... Just try imagine rl situation when it can be usefull so u put all other characteristic a side and this few tests decide for u what phone ull buy....o boy....
@@simbad3311 buddy, the mohs scale test is for checking whether keys and coins would scratch your phone or not. The bend test is for occasions where you sit on your phone. All these tests are for a purpose except for the burn test that even Zack says serves no immediate purpose. These tests are necessary and help those who go beyond the basics to know about their phone. Imagine you bought this expensive one plus phien and then on one fine day, it snapped like a biscuit and your friend's age old samsung survived the same. How would you feel? If you're paying so much for it, you should know what you're getting of it.
@@anasalisyed9237 How will it snap like a biscuit..the 10t is clearly far more durable than the 10 pro. The first bend test from the back did no damage to the phone which is more than enough durability for me. I've never broken the screen on any of my phones
Oneplus's fall into irrelevancy is just sad. They made such huge news when they came out with budget phones that could rival other phone company's flagship for a cheap price only for them to become the same thing they once opposed.
LoL you are all dumb. You could probably do that with every phone if you put enough strength behind it. This snap with Jerry did DOSENT mean shit in real life. If the phone holds well when it falls then it's a buy for me. I mean who bends there phones? Even if you accidentally sit on it wouldnt snap like this and most probably wouldn't snap at all.
Two phones to fail Zack's bending test in a row, OnePlus has definitely lost its touch. It's not just another brand, it's now a brand with fragile devices. 🔨
@@kunalshah912 it is not alot of pressure and yes, compared to other phones of the same price that recieves the same amount of force. And compared to the giant piece of glass that was the Tab S8 Ultra which was thinner and like 3x the size, this phone is fragile as fck. Also looking at the folding phones which are supposedly super fragile survived a bend from the wrong direction, this and the 10pro are weaker than a piece of paper
I think you should always do the fingerprint test Zack! If a phone can detect your print even after some hefty level 7 deeper grooves we know it's a good scanner. I hope one day you get a Vivo phone with the 3D SONIC MAX in. (X80 Pro and IQOO 8 to 10 Pro all use it if you got curious 😉)
That is the 10T official teardown as Oneplus recommends, see the screen worked just fine but it's rated to open at 89 degrees not 90. Still great phone with easy battery replacement method.
especially the deeper slow voice he puts on 😂 I seen his videos when he's talking normal to his wife and his voice is different 😂 idc what you say about the mic the SPEED changes
@@3nity89 I think it's pretty common. Mostly among women, because the front pockets on their jeans tend to be smaller and tighter. But I've definitely seen men pull a phone out of the back pocket too.
@@3nity89 I was perplexed too when I first visited Canada and saw phones peeking from people's behind. poor people can't even afford a decent pocket for their iphones.
The fingerprint test is still good to have, it's nice to know what readers are forgiving to damaged prints. My finger prints can often get damaged when working or if I injure myself, so I always set multiple prints in the phone incase I can't use my main finger/thumb. It's also good to see phones that have faster readers. The back reader on my previous redmi note 8 was significantly faster and more forgiving than my current redmi note 11's power button reader and I find that irritating.
What was once feared has vastly fallen. I really enjoyed my 3t and while my 8t has seen the software decline I was hoping they would correct the faults. Unfortunately they have seemingly became that what they despised. Maybe they will fix their issues in the future, but for me the 8t shall be my last OnePlus phone as I don't think I can trust the brand anymore.
The OnePlus 7 Pro was the pinnacle of OnePlus. My 7 Pro is 3 years old now and still looks and works just like a brand new phone. No problems at all. Love it today as much as the day I bought it. It's really sad to see OP going downhill after that.
I still remember the joy and excitement I had when I got my first OnePlus device, the 7 Pro as well; I eventually went to an S20 after that, then a S20 Ultra a little while later, but ended up going back to an 8 Pro. It felt familiar, and I really liked it, plus the camera was definitely an improvement over the 7 Pro and even the more expensive S20 Ultra. Just last month I made the move to a 9 Pro, and decided to keep OxygenOS on it just to give it a try, since I typically put a ROM on all of my devices when I can. When looking at what they did with the software in OxygenOS 12 and even 13, and how the 10 Pro is almost identical in spec to the 9 Pro, or how the 10T is just.. odd, it's a little disheartening. It's kinda funny, since history might repeat itself for me. I had 3 LG phones in a row in the past (G6, V30, V40) before switching brands. With me now going from the 7 Pro, a little sidetrack to an S20 and back to the 8 Pro and now 9 Pro, this might be the end of the road for me, and it'll be hard to figure out where I might go from here, if I even want to jump off of the 9 Pro, it's still pretty decent hardware too. It's just a shame that there isn't many brands to pick from anymore, aside from the new ones like Nothing who are region exclusive right now, or smaller brands that were genuinely interesting, before they got bitten by the crypto virus (aka OSOM.)
@@jaroslavmrazek5752 I usually switch after a year of use, sometimes a few months less or more, and I always stay a generation behind since it's typically cheaper and generally more stable, especially if they're physically broken and can be fixed easily, like a cracked back. Like with the 9 Pro I just got, I found it for $299 with a broken glass back, and I was able to get a different (matte) color for just $20. It honestly just keeps things interesting, being able to see what's new or different between brands and generations.
OnePlus is no longer the company it used to be, prices are now on par with other flagships with the same specs, there's nothing really unique about the company or the phone any longer, so why should choose OnePlus? I started out with the OnePlus X. Major reason was the impressive specifications at great price. Fell in love with it the moment moment I got it out of the box (still have the box, by the way) Sleek, beautiful screen, great specifications, amazing camera. I dropped it many times, without the screen ever cracking. (well until it finally did, after three years of constant, rough use) I used to be a real fanboy, used to love going on the forums, discussing the phone with others, asking questions and answering them.. After my OPX was finally put to rest, I bought THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PHONE I've ever seen. Indian variant of the OnePlus 7T. Still wonderful OS, great camera, top notch specs, mesmerizing body with those frosted panels, blazing fast phone wonderful touches here and there that truly made the phone a joy and delight to own. Such as the braided charging cable and the carbon fibre and alcantara case. I've been using my OP7T just as I used my previous phone, and still in love with it. But it's starting to show it's age: the battery dies faster, warp charging sometimes doesn't work, the camera is no longer as good as it used to be. I'll use it for as long as it lasts, probably even send it for servicing. But after that, I don't think I'm buying another phone from OnePlus. Each year, I've eagerly watched OnePlus launch events, hoping they do something good again. Each year I'm disappointed. Some of the reasons are: The first few batches of OnePlus 8 and 9 phones having display problems. OnePlus merging with Oppo. (Especially hate the merger of Oxygen OS and Colour OS. OP said that the OSS will be separate, but under a single dev team. Hah) Carl Pei leaving OnePlus. Prices matching other flagships. Nothing really unique. OnePlus was once a phone company with a niche following of tech nerds with tight pockets. Now it's a phone company that wants to cater to everyone. That might be in the company's best interests, but OnePlus and many of its long-term costumers don't align with each other. Thank you for everything so far, OnePlus. Thank you for two great phones, 6 years of great memories. I'll be looking at Samsung for my next phone.
Same feelings man.. My OP7T's screen literally came off yesterday as I was replacing my screen protector. The battery doesn't hold charge as much any more too. I'm looking at the Asus Zenphone 9 but maybe I'll just finally go with an iPhone lol. It's funny how we old OP fans are all settling now.
Oneplus one and 5t owner here. When I bought 5t, I told myself I will buy the 10t after 5 years which is this year. After all the changes happened to op, I decided against and bought iPhone 13 last month.
I love how the cameras are just regular size, but they have these huge circles around it that makes people think they are comparable to like the iPhone 13 pro sensors
That is not a correct comparison. The OnePlus 9 pro has a 1/1.43 inch sensor, while the iPhone 13 Pro Max has a 1/1.9" sensor, a bit smaller. The huge circles are for the lenses that focus the light into the sensors. If you search for a camera replacement for the iPhone 13, you can see they look as small as the ones in this video.
funny how oneplus phones are even now failing the bend test on top of removing features with what made them special in the first place. At this point, just buy an Oppo phone.
I did just that. Bought an oppo reno8 that is basically the same as oneplus nord 2t for a much lesser price. Oneplus wants to charge a premium for a rebranded phone with an alert slider and glass back. Guess I can live without those considering new oneplus phones don't even have that
@@lifeisshørt_420 Samsung is just trash for the asking price. Had an S8 and I though it would be good. Sadly it falls short of my expectations, and my previous phone was a p8 lite 2017, not on par performance wise. But battery life was garbage, camera was disappointing compared to my p8 lite (who woulda knew??!), and the phone itself is the flimsiest phone I ever had. Only 2 little drops with a case on and all you get is a phone with both sides smashed. Even the fingerprint reader came apart !!!
Wow, I had my 10T since it first came out. I live an active lifestyle and not once for I think the 10T could be snapped in half as such. I still love my 10T.
Drops are very random. You can't possibly drop a phone the same way twice in a row. Let alone different phones. Meaning you could get very different results that are not necessarily representative of the structure of that phone
I have a One+ 6s (I think) I've had it a few years now and it was cheap then, it's withstood bouncing down the stairs several times it's been dropped screen side down more times than I can count, it's been bounced off of door frames been kicked been stepped on, the back is covered in gaffer tape and still it works! The toughest phone I've ever owned by a mile.
Funny, I just closed my eyes when you talked about waking up your listeners. Hahahaha. Zack, I really appreciate your videos, the ones other than just the tech. I love watching how you and Avery live your lives and the projects that you do I think it's time for an update don't you think ?
i honestly like the going from glass to plastic. because it just crackes less and keeps the phone looking clean. but 1 fall and its bent. 4 of my phone's corners have a bent part in it now.
Also, I love 120 Hz or more for my desktop and television, but my phone really doesn't need anything more than 60. Scrolling social media will still be misery regardless of the framerate.
I have had my LG Escape for like the last 5 years...i need a update. Its really just a memory problem. I can only do minimal gaming and saving thing if i can always go to my card. I really like the phone...still looks ABSOLUTE brand-new. LG makes durable long lasting stuff. Still have one of the first 32" lcd flat panel tv that came out. It's like 16 17 years old and perfect conditon too. Just is 65 pounds...LOL. But works and has a descent pic. MY POINT IS KEEP YOUR STUFF IF IT STILL WORKS..Just take care of it and NOT TOO MANY defects these days if you stick with a great brand. THIS SHOW KILLS ME. JERRY YOU ARE KILLING ME. BUT, i know its for science i suppose. God bless you and your wife and new baby too. Keep up the good work. Cant wait to see the HUMMER ALL DONE!!
Thanks Jerry I was waiting for this durability text for long, OnePlus 10T,yet they failed again, OnePlus should bring back the pop up camera, the 7pro and 7Tpro were great
They were too expensive/complex to produce hence the short life is pop up camera. But it was undoubtedly the best innovation for full screen experience
@@ridgefrost OnePlus 7 was a beast but after that they ruined everything they built so far,and with the Nord series coming in it was never the same company anymore
I still have my 5T which is the slimmest phone they made and it survived Zacks bend test. I literally ordered it after seeing Zacks test of it. Sadly the battery has gotten pretty bad after almost 5 years and it's become slow as well. But i got a Pixel 6 to replace it. Still have the 5T as a backup phone used mainly for flying my drone.
Hey, I think it would be nice if you would talk about the lifespan(updates, security patches) of the phones you test, since this would kind of fit with your durability testing
@@srijanvarma5657 So "literally every Phone reviewer ever" does the durability test like Zack is doing and tells you about software stuff alongside it? Seems like I am watching youtubers on another platform then... just get lost mate, go touch some grass
@@gurkengerd9981 stop touching grass you could use some English classes tbf if he starts talking about software and stuff there isn't really any difference except ofcourse the breaking phones part
I use the OnePlus 8 Pro and absolutely love it. The battery is great and the camera is outstanding. No need to upgrade or switch phones I'd guess for another 2-3 years, and I've had this over 2 years already! Sad to see their phones are getting crappy now, looks like my next one will be from a different manufacturer.
I agree and I am also still using an 8T and like it very much. Buuuuuut updates... I just hate that there are now already such long cycles between new updates that I have to upgrade in the near future because of that. And I don't mean features, just security updates which are limited to 4 years. The 8T is still on the February security update, released 1st March 2022...this is just sad. Hate to say it but it might be an iPhone then as they simply get regular security updates for years. I mean the latest iOS 15.6.1 is still supported by the iPhone 6S which was released in September 2015! That's 7 years of updates which is unbeatable for me and after 7 years I am also happy to upgrade to a newer phone ;)
I wanted to buy this phone as a replacement for my OP6T, but then I realized that today they are no different to other Chinese brands like Realme or Oppo. In fact they're also ditching their own OxygenOS and going with OS from Oppo just with slight look change. It's very sad and I am refusing to invest in their products any longer. I'll probably just go with Asus ROG phone 6. Pricier but well worth it in comparison.
I'm still hanging on to my OnePlus 6T too, but I'm soon upgrading to S22 Ultra. I miss the glory days of OnePlus, if they hadn't changed and lost their identity, I would have gladly stuck with OnePlus. What a shame.
@@TheWalf999 I really considered iPhone 13 pro max but it's pricing is unjustified and it's not as good in gaming. Gaming is what I do at least 80% of time on my phone so it makes sense to buy a gaming phone. Plus iOS is annoying to use.
My first smart phone was a OnePlus One and I loved it. I've never had another one until now. I finally retired my LG v40 and picked up a Nord N10 as a free temp phone till I can get a Pixel 6 or 7, but to be honest, this is a surprisingly nice phone for free from Metro by Tmobile. Frankly, it's as good in almost every way as my V40 was. Surprisingly good camera, 2 day battery(my v40 was down to much less than a day), great dual speakers, nice bright 90 Hz screen and the same size as my v40, 6.5 inches.
I defended the decision of removing the alert slider because they might have done it for structural reasons. Man OnePlus devices used be rock solid (7Pro was a champ)
I understand where you are coming from, but for me this would not be a good enough trade off. 1. The alert slider is so important to the OP identity and it is so useful. 2. The structural improvement is not even significant, so it makes the loss of such an important function not worth it at all
2:06? SLIGHTLY?! That's fucking half, and it makes a huge difference when trying to have a good quality front picture, even though it wouldn't be used as much but still!
I don't see what bending the phone in half proves. True phone enthusiast baby their phones and would never allow their phone to be abused like that. When would you ever accidentally bend your phone like that?
The location of the flash is annoying on both versions, I feel like it should always be somewhere in the middle so there can be an even flash throughout each lens.
I much prefer the teardown to the durability test. I literally feel stressed when we get to the bend test. It makes me jump (ever so slightly) when the phone fails. Zack does it so we don't have to. Zack has your back. 👍😉
I feel like my old oneplus 7pro was the last good value oneplus. Now i moved to a realme gt2 pro, kinda like the new oneplus. Fair prices for a good flagship competitive phone.
I would love to see you do drop test and water resistant tests. I know that would result in a hot more damage to the phones, but most of these companies would probably be willing to give you an extra one..
Zak is a game changer , he's going to make phone manufacturers rethink before they try getting one over the Customers. I truly believe you are the reason so many of the phones are becoming more and more structured and durable 🤜🤛
Hi Jerry, I really love your video, gives insight on durability of latest phones. Would you consider doing some water splash test before start bending? So we can get to know its water resistance.
It's always awesome to get a durability test AND a teardown all in the same video.
Talk about efficiency.

Thank you for everything so far, OnePlus. Thank you for two great phones, 6 years of great memories. I'll be looking at Samsung for my next phone.
At this point there are no reasons for are to not choose oppo over OnePlus
Same bud, using OP7T right now and gonna switch to iPhone 14pro as soon as it rolls out, sick of the 7T now :?
Same feelings man.. My OP7T's screen literally came off yesterday as I was replacing my screen protector. The battery doesn't hold charge as much any more too. I'm looking at the Asus Zenphone 9 but maybe I'll just finally go with an iPhone lol. It's funny how we old OP fans are all settling now.
I'm not going to read this but, I agree with you.
Oneplus one and 5t owner here. When I bought 5t, I told myself I will buy the 10t after 5 years which is this year. After all the changes happened to op, I decided against and bought iPhone 13 last month.
Durability test and teardown in one video. You're getting ahead of yourself, Zack.
Hi
"It is slightly smaller at 48 thousand mAh"
I really wish it was 48k, that would've been dope.
then when you plug in the charger it says "bomb has been planted" 😉
@@chunweng28 nice one 😂
@@chunweng28 Brings a whole new meaning to when DankPods says "stand back, I'm arming the nugget!"
3:38 that's what she said! 😩
I love your voice Jerry,it's very soothing😉😉.I always used to wait for you videos👌
And its JerryRigAwesomething🔥
I love how the cameras are just regular size, but they have these huge circles around it that makes people think they are comparable to like the iPhone 13 pro sensors
It's what cheap Chinese brands usually do to try stand out to a larger audience, its sad to see one plus come to this state
well people bought OnePlus mostly for the software experience then secondly for hardware .. ever since they merged with oppo's OS its a dead company
2 of the 3 rear cameras of 10 pro are larger sensors compared to.iphone 13 pro
That is not a correct comparison. The OnePlus 9 pro has a 1/1.43 inch sensor, while the iPhone 13 Pro Max has a 1/1.9" sensor, a bit smaller. The huge circles are for the lenses that focus the light into the sensors. If you search for a camera replacement for the iPhone 13, you can see they look as small as the ones in this video.
Even iPhone does that. There's no need for such big circles, the aperture of cameras in mobile are tiny and a 10mm max.
More impressively, OnePlus made an almost-foldable phone!
It is foldable.
Just once.
@@tarantuluke See that's why it's made by OnePlus, and not OnePlusPlus
They used a flexible oled display
Good job Jerry, its not only the specs but a durable phone matter, this tests are good for after market business and good for the environment ♥️
funny how oneplus phones are even now failing the bend test on top of removing features with what made them special in the first place. At this point, just buy an Oppo phone.
Or you know.... Just any other android phone lol. Like realme gt phones imo are the new oneplus now.
I did just that. Bought an oppo reno8 that is basically the same as oneplus nord 2t for a much lesser price. Oneplus wants to charge a premium for a rebranded phone with an alert slider and glass back. Guess I can live without those considering new oneplus phones don't even have that
@@Lewinium yes, not to mention one plus is owned by oppo.
Coloros is trash so just buy a pixel or Samsung or apple if you wanna try iOS
@@lifeisshørt_420 Samsung is just trash for the asking price. Had an S8 and I though it would be good. Sadly it falls short of my expectations, and my previous phone was a p8 lite 2017, not on par performance wise. But battery life was garbage, camera was disappointing compared to my p8 lite (who woulda knew??!), and the phone itself is the flimsiest phone I ever had. Only 2 little drops with a case on and all you get is a phone with both sides smashed. Even the fingerprint reader came apart !!!
These phone videos that I have been watching for over 4 years are awesome and very useful! Thanks Jerry for making me a tech geek. 🤣
you know exactly what you're doing jerry, lmao. 3:32
Zack can change battery in record time, impressive for the repairability aspect.
If 48,000 MAH is slightly smaller I’d love to know, how big was last years battery?
😆 glad someone else noticed it. If it's 48,000 mAh, I want it.
It was 4500 for the 8T so the 9 models should be somewhere between that and 4800
10 pro have 5000mah
Big Battery slimmer chaise sign me up!
Don't forget battery size vs chip efficiency:) 10t is more efficient then 10 pro.
Wow, I had my 10T since it first came out. I live an active lifestyle and not once for I think the 10T could be snapped in half as such.
I still love my 10T.
It would be great to add liquids in the durability tests as well as shocks (height drops) as they'd reosonate well with everyday use
Drops are very random. You can't possibly drop a phone the same way twice in a row. Let alone different phones. Meaning you could get very different results that are not necessarily representative of the structure of that phone
I love these unexpected teardown video with durability test
I have a One+ 6s (I think) I've had it a few years now and it was cheap then, it's withstood bouncing down the stairs several times it's been dropped screen side down more times than I can count, it's been bounced off of door frames been kicked been stepped on, the back is covered in gaffer tape and still it works! The toughest phone I've ever owned by a mile.
Is that what you do with your phone?
@@oracle8785
Not on purpose chap, it's what's known as being busy 🤣
Wow!! A 2-in-1 video. Durability test and tear down of the OnePlus 10T. Never thought I would get to see it like this 😆
Funny, I just closed my eyes when you talked about waking up your listeners.
Hahahaha.
Zack, I really appreciate your videos, the ones other than just the tech.
I love watching how you and Avery live your lives and the projects that you do I think it's time for an update don't you think ?
her name is Cambry lol
Avery? You sayin he likes dudes? 🤣 kidding
i honestly like the going from glass to plastic. because it just crackes less and keeps the phone looking clean. but 1 fall and its bent. 4 of my phone's corners have a bent part in it now.
Is that phone of yours also a oneplus 10T?
@@appp5375 yes i have a oneplus 10T
Hope to see OnePlus comeback with new ideas and solutions.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
yes, in a parallel universe
And that's the nothing
Lol🤣🤣
I've been waiting for that to replace my Oneplus 5 for the past 2-3 years, but they are only getting worse...
0:56 That subtle budum tsss though.
Would love if you do a lullaby , your voice is so soft and calming . It's very relaxing
In my opinion 1080p is the best resolution for phone screens as its sharp enough to look good but also great on battery
Definitely. I never could see the difference so I have switched my phone on 1080 to spare battery ^^"
Also, I love 120 Hz or more for my desktop and television, but my phone really doesn't need anything more than 60. Scrolling social media will still be misery regardless of the framerate.
That and refresh rates no higher than 90.
1:44 I feel called out XD
I have had my LG Escape for like the last 5 years...i need a update. Its really just a memory problem. I can only do minimal gaming and saving thing if i can always go to my card. I really like the phone...still looks ABSOLUTE brand-new. LG makes durable long lasting stuff. Still have one of the first 32" lcd flat panel tv that came out. It's like 16 17 years old and perfect conditon too. Just is 65 pounds...LOL. But works and has a descent pic. MY POINT IS KEEP YOUR STUFF IF IT STILL WORKS..Just take care of it and NOT TOO MANY defects these days if you stick with a great brand. THIS SHOW KILLS ME. JERRY YOU ARE KILLING ME. BUT, i know its for science i suppose. God bless you and your wife and new baby too. Keep up the good work. Cant wait to see the HUMMER ALL DONE!!
3:05 was dying listening to this sound 😭😭
5:32 the battery is 48 thousand mAh. XD
Your voice is so soft I would honestly love to fall asleep to listening to you singing lullabies.
Thanks Jerry I was waiting for this durability text for long, OnePlus 10T,yet they failed again, OnePlus should bring back the pop up camera, the 7pro and 7Tpro were great
They were too expensive/complex to produce hence the short life is pop up camera. But it was undoubtedly the best innovation for full screen experience
After that OnePlus went to shit
My favourite one was the 7t tried to get my mum to upgrade to one
She went for the xr instead
Still use 7npro it is broken and will probably switch to pixel 6pro or iphone 13pro
@@prijomoj8854 what's broken
Looks like the front glass is more durable than the midframe. Cool.
1:45 I feel called out lol. Your voice has that calming effect.
I like how he uses Nothing's sim ejector, its a lot cooler than other brands
Or just use a paper clip📎
Sadly One plus is not the same company we once knew...
They were awesome in the 3t era and below. Good until the 6. Crappy from 7 and above.
i have an oneplus 5 thats still working fine 6 years after i got it.
their latest phones are a disgrace compared to the older ones
@@seanchina9902 the 7 was great, that was peak oneplus
@@ridgefrost i have to disagree. 3t was the peak oneplus. Oneplus 7 they started following the trend of less features for higher price.
@@ridgefrost OnePlus 7 was a beast but after that they ruined everything they built so far,and with the Nord series coming in it was never the same company anymore
Zack should be at the end of a smartphone conception to give the jerryrig approval
4:56 T H E - C R O N C H ❤️🔥😩
I still have my 5T which is the slimmest phone they made and it survived Zacks bend test. I literally ordered it after seeing Zacks test of it. Sadly the battery has gotten pretty bad after almost 5 years and it's become slow as well. But i got a Pixel 6 to replace it. Still have the 5T as a backup phone used mainly for flying my drone.
The OP 5 was peak oneplus.
You can replace the battery yourself. Get it from Aliexpress
Man the only JerryRigEverything vid that was both a durability test and a tear down.
Hey, I think it would be nice if you would talk about the lifespan(updates, security patches) of the phones you test, since this would kind of fit with your durability testing
? Then he's gonna be literally every Phone reviewer ever the current style is good I'd rather watch mkbhd if i wanted software updates and stuff
@@srijanvarma5657 So "literally every Phone reviewer ever" does the durability test like Zack is doing and tells you about software stuff alongside it? Seems like I am watching youtubers on another platform then...
just get lost mate, go touch some grass
@@gurkengerd9981 stop touching grass you could use some English classes tbf if he starts talking about software and stuff there isn't really any difference except ofcourse the breaking phones part
I use the OnePlus 8 Pro and absolutely love it. The battery is great and the camera is outstanding. No need to upgrade or switch phones I'd guess for another 2-3 years, and I've had this over 2 years already! Sad to see their phones are getting crappy now, looks like my next one will be from a different manufacturer.
My OnePlus 7T Pro is still working flawlessly.
My 9pro also
Brother go for samsung
@@vinuvarghese6374 yeah if you live in an area where they sell the snapdragon model sure
Exynos on the other hand is a hard pass
I agree and I am also still using an 8T and like it very much. Buuuuuut updates... I just hate that there are now already such long cycles between new updates that I have to upgrade in the near future because of that. And I don't mean features, just security updates which are limited to 4 years. The 8T is still on the February security update, released 1st March 2022...this is just sad.
Hate to say it but it might be an iPhone then as they simply get regular security updates for years. I mean the latest iOS 15.6.1 is still supported by the iPhone 6S which was released in September 2015! That's 7 years of updates which is unbeatable for me and after 7 years I am also happy to upgrade to a newer phone ;)
3:06 too satisfying 🎶🌝 loop on 🔁
Gotta love how the durability test became a teardown halfway through the video.
Can we appreciate him actually taking off the screen protector before the scratch.
Is this your first time watching his videos? He sometimes does that.
Would it make sense to do scratch test with screen protector on?
This is exactly what I'd like to do to my phone when it says it has 5 bars of 5g but no internet connection.
When Jerry Rigs Everything, Jerry means it
Correction - 125W charging is US only, for the rest of the world it's 150W
Holy shit 150W on a phone?
Same with the Pro, 65W US, 80W for the rest.

Me: Thank god!
I'd like to congratulate to Oneplus for the company's second foldable phone.
I wanted to buy this phone as a replacement for my OP6T, but then I realized that today they are no different to other Chinese brands like Realme or Oppo. In fact they're also ditching their own OxygenOS and going with OS from Oppo just with slight look change. It's very sad and I am refusing to invest in their products any longer. I'll probably just go with Asus ROG phone 6. Pricier but well worth it in comparison.
I'm still hanging on to my OnePlus 6T too, but I'm soon upgrading to S22 Ultra. I miss the glory days of OnePlus, if they hadn't changed and lost their identity, I would have gladly stuck with OnePlus. What a shame.
@@yazunakarmi3315 good choice, if I weren't gaming on my phone I would probably consider S22 ultra.
Switch to iPhone and ditch android.
same
@@TheWalf999 I really considered iPhone 13 pro max but it's pricing is unjustified and it's not as good in gaming. Gaming is what I do at least 80% of time on my phone so it makes sense to buy a gaming phone. Plus iOS is annoying to use.
One plus are efficient at least, they allow you to combine the durability test and teardown in one go!
My first smart phone was a OnePlus One and I loved it. I've never had another one until now. I finally retired my LG v40 and picked up a Nord N10 as a free temp phone till I can get a Pixel 6 or 7, but to be honest, this is a surprisingly nice phone for free from Metro by Tmobile. Frankly, it's as good in almost every way as my V40 was. Surprisingly good camera, 2 day battery(my v40 was down to much less than a day), great dual speakers, nice bright 90 Hz screen and the same size as my v40, 6.5 inches.
At least you got to do a durability test and a teardown in 1 video - Thumbs up for that
I defended the decision of removing the alert slider because they might have done it for structural reasons. Man OnePlus devices used be rock solid (7Pro was a champ)
I understand where you are coming from, but for me this would not be a good enough trade off. 1. The alert slider is so important to the OP identity and it is so useful. 2. The structural improvement is not even significant, so it makes the loss of such an important function not worth it at all
they were having the alert slider since the beginning and most of their phones passed all durability tests
1:52 my disappointment is imeasurable
Hello. nice job you are doing here. respect. what phone do you recommend for me in 2022? is it good to choose a Samsung note 10 plus or Samsung A52s?
2:42 Did anyone noticed something?
Nothing
Thank you OnePlus for giving us such affordable foldable phones.
You have the best job ever. Envy
2:06? SLIGHTLY?! That's fucking half, and it makes a huge difference when trying to have a good quality front picture, even though it wouldn't be used as much but still!
I don't see what bending the phone in half proves. True phone enthusiast baby their phones and would never allow their phone to be abused like that. When would you ever accidentally bend your phone like that?
True.
OK, NOW SHUT UP.
Durability test AND a teardown in one video? You spoiling us mate 😜😂
Malayalis ondoiiiii😌
The location of the flash is annoying on both versions, I feel like it should always be somewhere in the middle so there can be an even flash throughout each lens.
It's funny Zack mentioned the falling asleep to his videos comment at 1:47. My co worker finds his voice "very relaxing" lol
Shazzamine video kanduvannavar like 🤣
Malayali
Yes
I love his videos
Ur the first comment congrats
Seriously bro me too
Hey I miss your electric hummer videos. Any updates?
Ouch that hurts. I always look at his review before considering buying a phone
If that's the case I guarantee he is not bending his own phone like this 🤣
I much prefer the teardown to the durability test. I literally feel stressed when we get to the bend test. It makes me jump (ever so slightly) when the phone fails. Zack does it so we don't have to. Zack has your back. 👍😉
Excellent, thanks for sharing, very useful for me.
I feel like my old oneplus 7pro was the last good value oneplus. Now i moved to a realme gt2 pro, kinda like the new oneplus. Fair prices for a good flagship competitive phone.
Still on my 7 pro and wouldn't change it for any phone on the market right now :-/ . Hope he will hang on until Oneplus wakes up (if it ever happens)
I would love to see you do drop test and water resistant tests. I know that would result in a hot more damage to the phones, but most of these companies would probably be willing to give you an extra one..
Nice reference to open the sim card tray with the Nothing tool.
Jerry annan is back with onepluse foldable phone 🤣🤣🤣🤣😍
Anyone here after Shazam video lol
How does he know i fall asleepnto his videos every night
Gotta admit, was rooting for this one, sad to see the state of it and the declining quality of OnePlus's products.
Wow! Jerry created new OnePlus 10T Fold. Congratulations
Btw Love your videos ❤️
2:00 We are all still waiting for a diamond phone screen💎💠
Zak is a game changer , he's going to make phone manufacturers rethink before they try getting one over the Customers. I truly believe you are the reason so many of the phones are becoming more and more structured and durable 🤜🤛
Hi Jerry, I really love your video, gives insight on durability of latest phones. Would you consider doing some water splash test before start bending? So we can get to know its water resistance.
