MrMobile [Michael Fisher] Should i buy oneplus6 or LG-G7 both of have them their have own pros and cons. And also that they are priced similarly in INDIA...i am really confused which one to buy.. please help me out on this.😊
I like your reviews for the fact that you not only dont start with "Hello guys this is a review and these are the specs and everything is good". Your reviews are like a well written book. They consist of impeccable stylistic devices, each one has a core theme you follow through and all that is presented in a very professional and easy-to-listen-to way. You even vary which aspects you mentione at which time according to your core theme and the device. I just feel like you really put effort in these. Best tech reviewer hands down. And by the way, your taste in music is excellent.
Yes Micheal is the only reviewer to talk about the vibration motor, I got the OP6 and while it is an amazing phone it is true that the vibration motor is meh!
Excellent review, Oneplus always delivers great value and Always comes short on some things. Why have a glass back and not have wireless charging? Water proofing would have been a great feature. Great detailed honest review, thanks
@@wasteyourtime8935mkbhd no longer says anything negative straight to the face in his videos. Just beats around the bush that it should have been better whereas Michael and dave2d day how it is .. m
@@wasteyourtime8935 MKBHD stopped reviewing the Moto G series for some reason. did not give a proper follow-up for the Essential PH-1. It didn't improve to a miracle, but it had enough improvements that it deserved a follow-up because of the discounts it was getting.
This. I use the OPX, and the build holds up. An OPX2 could be just that with better internals (including camera); and you have a winner. Also, I (and many) don't pay >300€ for a phone. If Oneplus must make its flagships so expensive, make a OPX2 for half the price.
This is the review I've been waiting for. I agree that the glass back with no wireless charging is stupid...but I also don't like slippery as a wet bar of soap build that also comes from that bad decision. And well, that useless notch....Everything else seems like a good compromise....and I'm not a OnePlus fan, I've never owned one. I honestly was waiting for what your opinion was on this one before I made up my mind on this. And for the first time I'm actually interested enough to even consider them, and that's the reason why I keep on coming back here. You are the best of the best, Michael!
Michael Livote phones have had glass back when wireless charging wasn't even around. Wireless charging is a gimmick and just raises the price. Not to mention dash charging is superior to wireless charging or any charging for that matter. Oneplus went for glass body for better LTE connectivity. They have explained that. I don't understand the surprise
Ledenk mems there's nothing wrong with the screen resolution, and the pixels are actually quite invisible. I'd suggest you stop spreading nonsense. (hint: I own a 5T) Also, 1440p is useless. It causes more battery drainage and it's just unneeded on phones. I don't get why OEMs use displays with that resolution.
4 years on and this is still a killer phone. at the same $500-$600 price range it's still hard to come by anything else that even comes close to its specs.
That train shot was amazing. And one of the standout of your reviews that you do better than others, the script writing. The way you used words is top notch and poetic.
To those who bash this phone just get a OnePlus device and you'll see how amazing these phones are ...I still have a 3T and not day of lag on this thing ...its buttery smooth and flies 🙌
Matthias Rambally I just wish you could get the older models for cheaper, although that's one of the problems of getting a phone from a smaller company
They are only good for SPEED that's all OnePlus focuses on, camera and audio I still shit in comparison to other phones, if they want a true flagship, they got work to do.
in my opinion "more smartphone for less money" is no longer true... It's a normal smartphone with less features (no wireless charging, no SD card, notch, no stereo speakers etc.) for a BIT less money than the flagships after a few months like the S9... For example the S9 here in germany is only 50€ higher priced than the OnePlus 6 right now... and those gestures are just HORRIBLE because of the lag of any animations made for them. Unlike on the iPhone X... it looks so ugly on the OP6.. seriously... PS: Watch Ericas video :D The OIS is only used in 4K60fps and 1080p60fps. In30fps it uses only EIS.
The oneplus 3 was the last phone for which the "less money" argument could still stand, even the op5 cost more than the lg g6 (amazon price) here where I live when it launched.
You don’t know what you are talking about. Ericas video showed that the EIS worked better than the OIS and asked why electronic stabilisation isn’t used on the 60fps too.
In majority of places S9 is more than 150% of OP6's price. The thing is, S9 lies in a price bracket which seems too much to pay for a smartphone. They're overpriced for features that may not even be needed.
and what do you mean you couldn't fit it in the script? Is it a crime to add in as many details as you can muster? I figured the more the information about the device the better the review
you might be thinking if it was to read off the specs sheet or something like that but taking a few mere seconds to mention what the call quality is like only takes a sentence and if people get bored within one sentence then they must have ADD or ADHD because taking a few seconds to mention call quality, fingerprint recognition, face unlock, the fact that he mentioned those things in the video but not say if they were good or bad. Would it really be so boring to add a simple synopsis telling people call quality was decent overall, but the one speaker is easy to block. See what I mean? It might have only added 1 whole minute to his video to mention each of those features and say whether they were decent or not. I highly doubt it would be boring. Especially when Michael is the narrator. He's got a great voice
Yeah, it's a combination of wanting to keep the script to a certain length (for a tight video) and there being very few changes in terms of the software and call quality vs. the 5T. On a review like the upcoming, say, HTC or Motorola phones, which only come out once a year, I'm content to repeat myself. But on OnePlus devices, which launch every six months ... I get really tired of saying the same things over and over (and I think the audience does as well). But thanks for the feedback!
Even so it's just 2 extra minutes every 6 months or so! Are your audience not WORTH IT? Please be as thorough as possible. There's a reason why people come to your reviews
I was honestly gutted when you left Pocketnow, thinking you had stopped reviewing phones for good! The best phone reviewer in my opinion, closely shadowed by Arron Baker formerly Phonedog, (haven't heard from him in a while)
Man, that was a great review as are most of the others you've put out over the years. It's so hard to find a reviewer who will call out the bad and point out the good without sounding bought and prayed for. You, my friend, stand head and shoulders above virtually all of them, and I thank you. Most reviewers seem just to regurgitate what the big players state in there reviews, as do a lot of commenters (have they even handled the product that's being reviewed, most likey not). For my last few phones my biggest need was front firing stereo speakers, case in point, my last phone was the axon 7 and prior to it was the 6p. Both sounded pretty damn good, but both had their own faults. Point being all phones fall into the "I wish it had this or didn't have that" category no matter what the cost, there's no one perfect device. This time I just wanted performance over all else and I'm willing to take a 1080p over a 2k screen or an average speaker over better sound, that doesn't make my choice of the OnePlus 6 a bad one, in fact I'm enjoying it immensely. And being my first OnePlus I think the price is more than fair for the experience I'm getting. For those in the fence, check out the reviews, but don't but into all you hear. Decide what important to you and not the reviewer. I believe you'll be happier in the long run. Thanks again, Mr Mobile! 👌🏼
Great review. I think it would haven good to have SD Card support as when additional storage needed it would be great to be able to swap out an existing SD Card for a larger capacity one, rather than having to buy a new phone just to get additional storage.
Dash charger is INCREDIBLE, it charges extremely fast. The car charger isn't even expensive only 29 dollars. I don't even understand why he says to drop the cash.
This phone costs almost $1200 AUD! That is for the 256gb however the 128gb is about $1k as well. lol budget phone what a crock of shit. It's as expensive as any flagship from apple or Samsung.
The ONLY review that points out all the important PROS and CONS!!! Everybody else keeps saying Dash charge is the best, but fails to point out that all the previous chargers (with Qualcomm QuickCharge) that almost everybody else is using, are rendered useless (normal charging). Am I supposed to buy a couple more Dash chargers to keep at home and workplace? Nope. Are there any power banks that uses Dash charge? Nope.
Unexpected Sensation I'm over that honestly cause all of the OEMs are abandoning hp Jack so I do not see that as a minus anymore yeah but what I hate to see is a notch and fortunately htc didn't include that
techknowledge well you can make the notch black with built in apps or one from the playstore if it's not to distracting I have no problem with it but if it sticks out too much I find it distracting :p
Unexpected Sensation well that's the problem it eats out the screen real estate , so it's better to put a chin and have 2 front cameras ( htc has it ) rather than just an ugly notch which u r hiding anyways
u11 was an amazing phone but got zero love from youtubers, I somehow doubt the u12 will get a different treatment. Anything that's not google, apple, samsung or one + doesn't get you the clics
Every time i'm searching for a review of a potential Phone i wanted to buy (i'm buying a new one every 1/2 months..) I'm so happy if there's a review of it by MrMobile. Michael seems to be always on point with his thoughts about a device. And i'm not even talking 'bout the fact that his voice is such a pleasure to listen at. Side note: I am going to buy this OnePlus 6 for sure (: Thanks Michael!
i think thats pretty much the same with almost every phone. its never worth upgrading if you have the previous gen of the same company. I have the OP3, so im thinking of upgrading. i never would have if i had the 5t or even the 5.
I bought the OP6, and it's already boxed up and ready to go back. Audio with headphones was so low, and then when I used any sort of voip calling (like Freetone), it couldn't multitask without major sound distortion and artifacts.
Looks like most youtube tech influencers liked OP6, but MrMobile always makes the best video hands down. You're getting more and more poetic with each video! "If you wanna do the dash, you gotta drop the cash!"
For the same price now I good buy a Note 8 in the uk. Better of with that. Better specifications. That why it's best to wait a bit. As always great review. Thank you.
I do not understand the point of the second sensor at all. A second sensor acting as a depth sensor is the same setup you'd see in budget phones like the Honor 7X and Moto G6, not a $500 phone like the OP6. This is why I'm not sold on the dual camera trend - it's simply more practical to make a good single camera than two mediocre ones. Unfortunately other people will fall for the dual camera feature, every time.
The dual camera system on the Xiaomi Mi A1 is actually really good for a budget phone, but yeah tacking on a depth sensor seems a bit pointless to me. I guess a lot of people see 2 cameras and instantly think it's better.
Juuhazan The 2nd sensor/lens on the OP 6 helps in low-light situations, as well, it's not just there for Portraiture mode/bokeh effect. Spotty low-light performance was the biggest knock against the 5T's rear cameras.
I have listened for a series of reviews and to be honest your sounds like you are speaking from hearth, rather than reading a transcript from your sponsor, a.k.a OnePlus. We need more people like you. Thanks
Been using it since launch and found couple camera problems, some Michael mentioned : * Finds it hard to ficus on high contrast or close up shot of smaller objects. * In Potrait mode subjects are softened, just like S9, but much better than S9.
MKBHD? Really? His video's are great, but only for presentation. He never does critical reviews (which is fine), so you never get a fair presentation of His explanations are pretty cool. Juan Bagnell is good and Damir Franc has a real own insight. I often disagree with Damir, but he does take his time and what he says is really his opinion based on use.
One of the biggest flaws of the OnePlus launcher is that it doesn't support infinite scrolling of the home screen, i.e. what LG or Samsung call Home screen looping. I hate it when the home screen gets stuck after scrolling. I wonder how come OnePlus hasn't enabled it yet...
Great review! I still can't believe that they haven't fixed the vibration motor and the single speaker setup! After using phones that have stereo speakers, it's really hard to go back.
I really enjoyed this video, it seemed like you were having a lot of fun reviewing this phone! Also big 1+ for including clips of video recorded from the phone! Most other reviewers didn't include this. Keep it up!
The OnePlus 6 is actually pretty terrible value here in the UK, you can buy a brand new Samsung s9 for the same price, or you can get (I'd argue a better value) Xaomi Mi Mix 2S for considerably cheaper. OnePlus has been increasing the price year after year with nothing to show for it to the point where I don't think I'd ever consider them again. What a shame.
Great review! But one more thing: Erica Griffin reported that, at lower FPS, the Oneplus 6 uses EIS instead of OIS, which it uses at a higher FPS and 4k, and she noticed that, aftually, the EIS sometimes does a better job at stabilising the video then OIS! So we can appreciate Oneplus's EIS skills.She has contacted oneplus for more info about the matter. And the Pixel 1 just shows how good EIS can be!
This is probably the first OnePlus device that I can confidently say is that they, well, Settled. The biggest problem is that the Nokia 7 Plus is actually a more attractive proposition than this...
Paolo Ariedo OP 6 specs simply blow that Nokia out of the water -- sorry that's just a fact, not hyperbole. Plus the 7 Plus isn't available in the US, so that device is a non-starter for us Americans.
Sharky165 The 7 Plus has a 3830MAH battery, over 25% larger than the OnePlus. And the difference in performance is only massive with gaming. In general use, they're sufficiently fast.
Paolo Ariedo It really depends on what you want from a phone. If you want great battery life, decent specs and a solid build the 7 Plus is a great choice. The 6 is a very good all round phone for €520. Only having 64GB with no SD card support isn't great though.
I agree, especially in this new generation with 4K and Slo-Mo capabilities, that's gonna chew through the memory pretty fast. I'm saving up to get the 256GB 8GB model this time since I tend to hold onto their phones around 2 years. I used to always feel the need to upgrade every year with all other phones, but these honestly run just as fast now as when I first bought them so it's hard to give them up. If I had a 5 or 5T, I'd wait for the 6T. OnePlus only includes one "bloatware" App which is their community forum, but you can delete it without rooting unlike others like Samsung or LG. I can't recommend these phones enough honestly. I build my own PCs and like to tinker with tech and these phones offer flexibility and speed that's unrivaled in Android. 😎
You brought it! Great video. One of your best and I've been following you for many years. I loved the way you transitioned into the Dbrand. I miss your enthusiasm for Motorola but that's cool. I'm a big mod user keeping my black JBL mod on all the time. Fits into my Pixel XL belt clip and I'm in business. Too big for some but I love it and wouldn't give it up for anything. Anyway you're awesome! Thanks!
It is for me. At the office I just drop my phone on the wireless charge, it sits upright, and charges. I pick it up quickly when leaving desk. I do this 6-7 times a day. No need to unplug and replug each time and phone is always at 100%. It's a nice convenience. I think the complaint about no wireless charging is more the fact that they made it with a glass back, which is more fragile, and serve no other purposes than looking good since it doesn't have wireless charging.
If I had a phone with wireless charging, I'll do the same thing. It won't replace the main charger, but it's one hell of a convenience in a office environment where you shouldn't be focusing on your phone too much.
Are there any specific game mode boosts like on the razer phone?? Also did you use the bullet earphones with these and what was it like. Thanks mr mobile ur vids are awesome love from Australia.
Always love the review. I have considered a a OnePlus since the One. The thing that gets me is speaker. I am so used to HTC and boom sound, it's tough to venture away. The only phones that seem to be able to do that is the Razer and Pixel 2
Arif yeah you can.. but expect $30-$50 increase for wireless charging, ip rating and may be a triple camera setup.. since apple is working on it.. OnePlus will do it too...
your neighbour is under your bed I had a used iPhone 7 for $325 not refurbished... thing still flies and as an android fanboy, it’s making me switch because overall in value and performance... can’t think of android midrange money now $300-450 that can top a used iPhone 7 but I dare even put it up among flagships this year because it will still get updates longer than today’s unfortunately... I just feel like OnePlus is charging a bit too much for what the phone is when it is still lacking wireless charging and water resistance.
They should have aimed for making the entry model 500$ and be like: half the price TWICE as good and show camera & speed comparison adds to the iPhone x & Samsung galaxy s9 +
Can you do a compare video of the OnePlus 6 and Pixel 2 xl? I have both and can't decide which one to keep. Both have their own pros and cons but would love to hear your thoughts.
To clarify, the OnePlus 6 uses Electronic Image Stabilization for video except for 1080p60 & 4k60 (Erica Griffin showed this). Great review, and loved the wisecrack jokes (like "polite storms" in Canada)
Shots fired at 3:11? You trying to say that Canadian storms are not as bad as what you get in Boston? Hahaha! Great honest review as always. Love your work!
Michael, will they ever add CDMA bands in these devices for use with Verizon or Sprint networks in the USA? It is a question I have (and can't never find an answer to), since all these One+, Huawei, Oppo, ZTE etc phones have started popping up a few years back. As a Verizon user since 1996 when it was named Bell Atlantic and by the market share that Verizon has, it simply does not make business sense. Unless something else is at play here with CDMA which I am not aware of. Thanks.

The cheapest Pixel 2 is $920 where I live. But the fully speced out OnePlus (256GB/8GB RAM) is "only" $720. Yeahh, I'll go for the OnePlus thank you.

Yash Jain the first gen lasts forever
How is it holding up guys ?
I guess it's time for you to upgrade to OnePlus 6
in my opinion "more smartphone for less money" is no longer true... It's a normal smartphone with less features (no wireless charging, no SD card, notch, no stereo speakers etc.) for a BIT less money than the flagships after a few months like the S9...
For example the S9 here in germany is only 50€ higher priced than the OnePlus 6 right now...
and those gestures are just HORRIBLE because of the lag of any animations made for them. Unlike on the iPhone X... it looks so ugly on the OP6.. seriously...
PS: Watch Ericas video :D The OIS is only used in 4K60fps and 1080p60fps. In30fps it uses only EIS.
Tim R. Same price as a Mate 10. Mate is a bit slower but more feature packed so I fully agree with you
The oneplus 3 was the last phone for which the "less money" argument could still stand, even the op5 cost more than the lg g6 (amazon price) here where I live when it launched.
You don’t know what you are talking about. Ericas video showed that the EIS worked better than the OIS and asked why electronic stabilisation isn’t used on the 60fps too.
In majority of places S9 is more than 150% of OP6's price. The thing is, S9 lies in a price bracket which seems too much to pay for a smartphone. They're overpriced for features that may not even be needed.

The 'One Plus' brand isn't "cool" anymore once they've settled. I would say this to One Plus, welcome to the real playing field.
One of my favorite reviewers. Not afraid to call out the flaws when other reviewers brush it over afraid of losing sponsorship. Money grabbing twits
Man ......though I've seen alot alot alot of 1+6 reviews but your's is something unique and on point review .

I waited so many months for this phone. But after I saw there wasn't any wireless charging or a wide angle lense, I went with a LG V30 for about $400.
Grey Goose better choice considering the price
Grey Goose Great choice.I have s lg v20 that I love.Got it for only $120.
Grey Goose where did you get it for $400
Did you get it from Swappa?
Good for you.

If you want the dash , drop the cash.
One Plus , you better take notes for your next campaign.😂
Dash charger is INCREDIBLE, it charges extremely fast. The car charger isn't even expensive only 29 dollars. I don't even understand why he says to drop the cash.
4k video looked best I've seen in a review for any phone.
those cave shots!!!!
Good review. Its ok but in europe just not worth the buy.
Every other phone dropped so hard in price that the OP6 is up there with the flagships.
In the UK it's pretty well priced to be honest. After looking around at the actual flagships and this oneplus6.
in the netherlands the OP 6 256GB is 620 euros and a s9 64gb is 650 so not everywhere in Europe
In Spain, the OP 6 is at max. 619 € but the s9 is at minimum at 819 €
And I think, it's better than the S9...
This phone costs almost $1200 AUD! That is for the 256gb however the 128gb is about $1k as well. lol budget phone what a crock of shit. It's as expensive as any flagship from apple or Samsung.
Marques Brownlee who?
It's Mr Mobile the best out there 😎
Using in 2020
This shit never lags ❣️❣️
The ONLY review that points out all the important PROS and CONS!!!
Everybody else keeps saying Dash charge is the best, but fails to point out that all the previous chargers (with Qualcomm QuickCharge) that almost everybody else is using, are rendered useless (normal charging). Am I supposed to buy a couple more Dash chargers to keep at home and workplace? Nope. Are there any power banks that uses Dash charge? Nope.
I had qualcomm quickcharge on a previous phone. I'll take dash charging any day tbh. QCQC killed my battery on my previous phone very quickly.
hey man where is u12 plus video , it's first time in years that an HTC has got my attention and I expect my mate Michael to have a video on it
techknowledge where is the headphones jack at I was interested in it until I read no headphone jack :p great phone still
Unexpected Sensation I'm over that honestly cause all of the OEMs are abandoning hp Jack so I do not see that as a minus anymore yeah but what I hate to see is a notch and fortunately htc didn't include that
techknowledge well you can make the notch black with built in apps or one from the playstore if it's not to distracting I have no problem with it but if it sticks out too much I find it distracting :p
Unexpected Sensation well that's the problem it eats out the screen real estate , so it's better to put a chin and have 2 front cameras ( htc has it ) rather than just an ugly notch which u r hiding anyways
u11 was an amazing phone but got zero love from youtubers, I somehow doubt the u12 will get a different treatment. Anything that's not google, apple, samsung or one + doesn't get you the clics
Every time i'm searching for a review of a potential Phone i wanted to buy (i'm buying a new one every 1/2 months..) I'm so happy if there's a review of it by MrMobile. Michael seems to be always on point with his thoughts about a device. And i'm not even talking 'bout the fact that his voice is such a pleasure to listen at. Side note: I am going to buy this OnePlus 6 for sure (:
Thanks Michael!
For me it doesn't seem much of an upgrade from 5T. It's kinda like Oneplus 5TT 😁😁
Bandhan Jha OnePlus 5T wasn't even an upgrade from the OnePlus 5, just had a taller display..and thats it
they drop a phone every 6 months how much of a upgrade can it be? But the 📷 camera is for the 6 over the 5t.
The only real upgrade is the camera. Definitely not worth an upgrade if you have a 5T. If you want to stick with OP wait for the 6T.
okay, why would you want to upgrade your phone in six months within the same company?
i think thats pretty much the same with almost every phone. its never worth upgrading if you have the previous gen of the same company. I have the OP3, so im thinking of upgrading. i never would have if i had the 5t or even the 5.
I bought the OP6, and it's already boxed up and ready to go back. Audio with headphones was so low, and then when I used any sort of voip calling (like Freetone), it couldn't multitask without major sound distortion and artifacts.
dash charge was probably the best part
there seems so be some framerate stutter, is this from the edit? during the video samples you showed
Fantastic review Michael!
Thanks very much, man!
Looks like most youtube tech influencers liked OP6, but MrMobile always makes the best video hands down. You're getting more and more poetic with each video! "If you wanna do the dash, you gotta drop the cash!"
Did.... did you just say you like ranch dressing on pizza?
Gabe Taylor Yeah, sadly, some of my countrymen (Americans) are weird enough to actually like that. 😆
Never try it. You'll love it and then you'll gain a hundred pounds.
Pepperoni + ranch = heaven
MrMobile [Michael Fisher] Filmed in NM? You must be talking about Dion's Ranch :P
It's actually pretty tasty.
I will never understand why other manufacturers don't embrace the wide angel lens. This was a golden opportunity for One Plus.
Nothing like a Mr.Mobile review
For the same price now I good buy a Note 8 in the uk. Better of with that. Better specifications. That why it's best to wait a bit. As always great review. Thank you.
In Germany the OP6 price is the same as the Galaxy S9 price
naftyloescher Where can you find an s9 for this price?
in Indonesia, OP6 prices start from 850 dollar for the base model, and literally 1100 dollar for the top model...SAME as s9/s9+...
how ? it's 520€ 6gb ram 64 gb storage and goes up to 620€ for the 256gb storage 8gb ram from Amazon or the one plus website .
Dino Ari Kusuma
Wtf, poor man... Crazy prices
naftyloescher that’s terrible
Did they solve the problem the 5T had with the internal certificates allowing it to only playback 720P on Netflix ?
best perform and nice accent and voice . best music choise. its Mr mobile
They should change their tagline. They are not fitting to use "Never Settle" anymore. "Learn to love the notch"?? Oh SO MUCH ARROGANCE
I do not understand the point of the second sensor at all. A second sensor acting as a depth sensor is the same setup you'd see in budget phones like the Honor 7X and Moto G6, not a $500 phone like the OP6. This is why I'm not sold on the dual camera trend - it's simply more practical to make a good single camera than two mediocre ones. Unfortunately other people will fall for the dual camera feature, every time.
The dual camera system on the Xiaomi Mi A1 is actually really good for a budget phone, but yeah tacking on a depth sensor seems a bit pointless to me. I guess a lot of people see 2 cameras and instantly think it's better.
Juuhazan The 2nd sensor/lens on the OP 6 helps in low-light situations, as well, it's not just there for Portraiture mode/bokeh effect. Spotty low-light performance was the biggest knock against the 5T's rear cameras.
I have listened for a series of reviews and to be honest your sounds like you are speaking from hearth, rather than reading a transcript from your sponsor, a.k.a OnePlus. We need more people like you. Thanks
Your phone didn't include the dash charger and the cable?
Rubab Huss it does, but if you want a spare it will cost you.
Topher S Do you happen to know if they make a Dash car charger ?
Sharky165 they do, but you gotta buy it from them separately
AuRoyalty Yeah, that's how those dirty fuckers get ya ! If the Thunder doesn't get ya, the lightning will !! 😆
Rubab Huss
Been using it since launch and found couple camera problems, some Michael mentioned :
* Finds it hard to ficus on high contrast or close up shot of smaller objects.
* In Potrait mode subjects are softened, just like S9, but much better than S9.
Mr. Mobile and MKBHD are the only two reviewers you need to watch to get a good perspective of tech!
totally agree with you! Linus and jerryrig are a must watch as well! Lou and Austin also offer a different view to things!
MKBHD? Really? His video's are great, but only for presentation. He never does critical reviews (which is fine), so you never get a fair presentation of His explanations are pretty cool. Juan Bagnell is good and Damir Franc has a real own insight. I often disagree with Damir, but he does take his time and what he says is really his opinion based on use.
Flossy Carter??
L.GH. Djoetma Exactly.
This review was better. MKBHD just sucked the phone's d*** the whole time.
How good is both the fingerprint scanner and the voice calls?
*Mr Mobile's* reviews are the best in my honest opinion. There's something about them, I don't know what. But I love 'em
Tanbir Singh He's not perfect (no one is), but he's daaaayum good, and def one of the very best UA-cam tech reviewers, no doubt !
One of the biggest flaws of the OnePlus launcher is that it doesn't support infinite scrolling of the home screen, i.e. what LG or Samsung call Home screen looping. I hate it when the home screen gets stuck after scrolling. I wonder how come OnePlus hasn't enabled it yet...
Makes me wonder why iPhone X is so expensive.
Great review! I still can't believe that they haven't fixed the vibration motor and the single speaker setup! After using phones that have stereo speakers, it's really hard to go back.
So tell me Mr.Mobile, how is Face unlock working on the OP6?
O.G.H it's fast as earlier...
Just as fast, just as non-secure. :)
But seriously, it's pretty convenient if for whatever reason you don't wanna fingerprint it.
MrMobile [Michael Fisher] Glad to hear that OP 6 not only copied Apples notch, but also their insecure Face ID
I really enjoyed this video, it seemed like you were having a lot of fun reviewing this phone! Also big 1+ for including clips of video recorded from the phone! Most other reviewers didn't include this. Keep it up!
wireless charging ,0-19% in 30 minute or dashbcharging 0-60% in 30minutes..duhh..
"Mr. Mobile, talk dirty to me."
*Whispers in my ear*
"Ranch dressing on pizza..."
best drand skin according to you??confused between black dragon and white marble
Black dragon. But checkout Black camo too.
White marble for me
Carbon fiber
White Marble looks like the phone is dirty.
mohit yadav I had the black dragon skin from dbrand I hated it I removed it the next day and ordered a carbon fiber skin
Among OnePlus 6 and Samsung Galaxy S9, which one is worth it according to you?
Hey man review Nokia 7 plus as I am on a budget and don't want to pay for this . It's out of budget for me
pragyan Joshi used iPhone 7 is $325
Audiofilio not a fan of Apple thanks for recommendation through
Yes Michael, do review Nokia 7 Plus if possible !
pragyan Joshi He probably won't, because the 7 Plus isn't available in the US.
The OnePlus 6 is actually pretty terrible value here in the UK, you can buy a brand new Samsung s9 for the same price, or you can get (I'd argue a better value) Xaomi Mi Mix 2S for considerably cheaper. OnePlus has been increasing the price year after year with nothing to show for it to the point where I don't think I'd ever consider them again. What a shame.
11th and part of the MRMOBILE squad 😎😎😎😎👍👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😍 great video 😍
Great review! But one more thing: Erica Griffin reported that, at lower FPS, the Oneplus 6 uses EIS instead of OIS, which it uses at a higher FPS and 4k, and she noticed that, aftually, the EIS sometimes does a better job at stabilising the video then OIS! So we can appreciate Oneplus's EIS skills.She has contacted oneplus for more info about the matter. And the Pixel 1 just shows how good EIS can be!
This is probably the first OnePlus device that I can confidently say is that they, well, Settled.
The biggest problem is that the Nokia 7 Plus is actually a more attractive proposition than this...
The OnePlus 6 is still quite competitive for €120 more than the 7 Plus.
Paolo Ariedo OP 6 specs simply blow that Nokia out of the water -- sorry that's just a fact, not hyperbole. Plus the 7 Plus isn't available in the US, so that device is a non-starter for us Americans.
Sharky165 The 7 Plus has a 3830MAH battery, over 25% larger than the OnePlus.
And the difference in performance is only massive with gaming. In general use, they're sufficiently fast.
Paolo Ariedo It really depends on what you want from a phone. If you want great battery life, decent specs and a solid build the 7 Plus is a great choice.
The 6 is a very good all round phone for €520. Only having 64GB with no SD card support isn't great though.
And then 3 or 6 months later they'll release the 6T which fixes all the wrongs. Like adding IP rating, Wireless charging and so on..
Wtf 5:20 😂😂
that $629 for the 256gb doesn't seem so expensive now considering new android phones coming out this year cost $700
Watching on my oneplus6 ❤️ it's fukin amazing ❤️
KHD me too...
Me too, I really love it!
I agree, especially in this new generation with 4K and Slo-Mo capabilities, that's gonna chew through the memory pretty fast.
I'm saving up to get the 256GB 8GB model this time since I tend to hold onto their phones around 2 years. I used to always feel the need to upgrade every year with all other phones, but these honestly run just as fast now as when I first bought them so it's hard to give them up. If I had a 5 or 5T, I'd wait for the 6T.
OnePlus only includes one "bloatware" App which is their community forum, but you can delete it without rooting unlike others like Samsung or LG.
I can't recommend these phones enough honestly. I build my own PCs and like to tinker with tech and these phones offer flexibility and speed that's unrivaled in Android. 😎
and if you don't like the notch you can always turn it off with their software implementation :P
@Prash Mc it looks better than with a bezel at the top.
You brought it! Great video. One of your best and I've been following you for many years. I loved the way you transitioned into the Dbrand. I miss your enthusiasm for Motorola but that's cool. I'm a big mod user keeping my black JBL mod on all the time. Fits into my Pixel XL belt clip and I'm in business. Too big for some but I love it and wouldn't give it up for anything. Anyway you're awesome! Thanks!
What is your daily driver MrMobile?
so far he uses the key one
That opening background score is awesome!! Been waiting for your review to drop and it finally has..Michael your the best!!
Who cares about wireless charging....personally it is not a feature
John chris Agreed!
It is for me. At the office I just drop my phone on the wireless charge, it sits upright, and charges. I pick it up quickly when leaving desk. I do this 6-7 times a day. No need to unplug and replug each time and phone is always at 100%. It's a nice convenience. I think the complaint about no wireless charging is more the fact that they made it with a glass back, which is more fragile, and serve no other purposes than looking good since it doesn't have wireless charging.
Brawndo it's just that wireless charging charges really slow compared to dash charging. So no one would really use it.
If I had a phone with wireless charging, I'll do the same thing. It won't replace the main charger, but it's one hell of a convenience in a office environment where you shouldn't be focusing on your phone too much.
Just plug it on stop being lazy
Are there any specific game mode boosts like on the razer phone?? Also did you use the bullet earphones with these and what was it like. Thanks mr mobile ur vids are awesome love from Australia.
Do I have to smash my old phone to buy it?
A Mr. Mobile and High Tech Traveler collaboration?
I'd buy that for a dollar.
This phones feels like a 0.5+ rather than a 1+
Kevin Backalive no more like a 2+
Have you received the Pixel 2 which Jerry repaired ?
Waiting for the 10 GB ram
Always love the review. I have considered a a OnePlus since the One. The thing that gets me is speaker. I am so used to HTC and boom sound, it's tough to venture away. The only phones that seem to be able to do that is the Razer and Pixel 2
are we must wait for another 'T' version again? just skip this phone
Arif yeah you can.. but expect $30-$50 increase for wireless charging, ip rating and may be a triple camera setup.. since apple is working on it.. OnePlus will do it too...
viva somuvivekanandan lmao
your neighbour is under your bed that’s why I buy used iPhones 1/3 of their price lol
your neighbour is under your bed I had a used iPhone 7 for $325 not refurbished... thing still flies and as an android fanboy, it’s making me switch because overall in value and performance... can’t think of android midrange money now $300-450 that can top a used iPhone 7 but I dare even put it up among flagships this year because it will still get updates longer than today’s unfortunately... I just feel like OnePlus is charging a bit too much for what the phone is when it is still lacking wireless charging and water resistance.
They should have aimed for making the entry model 500$ and be like: half the price TWICE as good and show camera & speed comparison adds to the iPhone x & Samsung galaxy s9 +
First
Can you do a compare video of the OnePlus 6 and Pixel 2 xl? I have both and can't decide which one to keep. Both have their own pros and cons but would love to hear your thoughts.
It’s nearly in last gen flagship money and it’s a OPPO. And it makes the Chinese spy on you! 😂😂😂 best phone ever!!🙌🙌🤣🤣🤣
Miyuru Weerarathna Stop with the emojis.
What gimbal where you using in this video? Is there any that you would recommend?
To clarify, the OnePlus 6 uses Electronic Image Stabilization for video except for 1080p60 & 4k60 (Erica Griffin showed this).
Great review, and loved the wisecrack jokes (like "polite storms" in Canada)
5:20 should've wore a superman t-shirt XD
Shots fired at 3:11? You trying to say that Canadian storms are not as bad as what you get in Boston? Hahaha! Great honest review as always. Love your work!
Michael, will they ever add CDMA bands in these devices for use with Verizon or Sprint networks in the USA? It is a question I have (and can't never find an answer to), since all these One+, Huawei, Oppo, ZTE etc phones have started popping up a few years back. As a Verizon user since 1996 when it was named Bell Atlantic and by the market share that Verizon has, it simply does not make business sense. Unless something else is at play here with CDMA which I am not aware of. Thanks.
