    The OnePlus 3 comes with a screen protector on it out of the box. So if your screen scratched up, you took it off, bro...

    • @TonderayiKanoz
      @TonderayiKanoz 7 років тому +8

      I am of the view that its scratching coz of the screen protector. Corning Glass should be tougher than the screen protector isnt it. Therefore if the Axon is not scratching you are comparing its real glass screen to a screen protector on the 3.

    • @Msanimaniac
      @Msanimaniac 8 років тому +3

      Right? I had never heard of the Axon and I was hesitant to even look at a ZTE phone. But after watching numerous videos, they sold me and I got my Axon Pro during Prime Day and never looked back! This phone is awesome and I'm more than likely to buy the Axon 7 as well.

    • @Msanimaniac
      @Msanimaniac 8 років тому

      +MiBerzerk compared, 7 is a slight upgrade. The only reason I'd buy 7 is just because it has a SD slot and I have a lot of music on my card. Other than that, I'm more than happy with my Pro.

  • @11donto

    why is everyone so hyped about the OnePlus 3 when the Axon is here slaying?

  • @EileenTheCr0w
    @EileenTheCr0w 8 років тому +37

    Not even a contest. Axon 7 wins hands down imo.
    Axon 7:
    * Better audio with speakers and headphones
    * Micro SD
    * Better screen resolution and larger display
    * Bigger battery
    * Unique design
    * Cheaper and comes with more high quality accessories
    Op3:
    * more ram 6 vs 4 (though there's a 6gb axon as well)
    * Better camera right now, but that could change
    * Slightly faster charging
    OP3 may be faster with load times in some apps, however if you tweak the screen resolution on the axon this would be a tie, and the axon would normally look better.
    So the axon you'll have the option of nearly identical performance and better battery life or better visuals.. Also vr potential. Idk what's not to like about having the option.
    Also If you order from many places you'll get bonuses with the axon like good headphones, gift cards, etc.

    • @EileenTheCr0w
      @EileenTheCr0w 8 років тому +3

      Oh and op3 has best software atm and both are going to be capable of custom roms

    • @EileenTheCr0w
      @EileenTheCr0w 8 років тому +1

      +WenJuckts My bad, I thought there were 2 variants of the op3 and one was like $429.
      But it's still not as much of a value because it doesn't come with anything but the phone and dash charger in the box.
      The axon 7 includes some decent jbl headphones, a slim case, a micro usb to type C adaptor and quick 3.0 charger.
      Also if you order from b&h, newegg or a few others you'll get bonuses with the axon.
      For example newegg throws in some monster DJ Pulse headphones that used to be $200 alone (realistically worth maybe 50-100 now, but still a great pair).

    • @aleckramer333

    • @fietspomp987
      @fietspomp987 8 років тому +3

      total nonsense its funny to see op3 fanboys like you come up with total bullshit to defend the op3.
      Axon 7 is just a better phone, face it guys. Op3 looks (slightly) better tho. Still im glad i haven't bought an op3 im going with the axon.

    • @Ebilcake
      @Ebilcake 8 років тому

      Oneplus 3 also has better battery life and throttles less, meaning performance in games will be better. Getting 5-6 hours most days with the OnePlus 3. I think the worst I've got when playing a game for 3 hours was still over 4 hours overall.

  • @CR7Ashley
    @CR7Ashley 8 років тому +39

    One Plus 3 is slightly superior overall but the ZTE isn't a bad choice either... Bottom line is you can't go wrong with any of these handsets.

    This review is so biased towards the axon 7. Fair enough when the axon wins in certain categories but trying to brush off the one plus' advantages in others smh

    • @moritzlang2251
      @moritzlang2251 8 років тому +15

      E.g. Zte has amazing speakers, screen, and battery and the OP3 has better ram, fingerprint reading and speed (all 3 of which they try to pass off as irrelevant or not noticeable. Its noticeable, I have owned both phones.) Not to mention destroys the zte in the camera department. Rewatch the comparison, its a complete joke to say the zte outdoes the OP3. (I have used both phones and side with neither. Just pointing out how bad this comparison is.)

    • @duonkaah
      @duonkaah 8 років тому +1

      +LBS your tests where you start test "at the same time". using the start up time of apps like youtube as a test. while the start up time of the youtube app and web pages are also depending on the internet connection.
      if you are not using a router which supports mu mimo, the results are completely random and depending on which phone is given internet acces by your router first. so those test says nkthing about the phones but something about your router

      I thought the same thing. tests done ON UA-cam mind you show the exact opposite of what he said. the op3 had better battery life and a way better camera. it's been all over the board that the op3 camera is leaps and bounds better then the Axon 7

      +Mustafa Mirza I've seen lbs stuff and I liked it for the most part but he was a tad dishonest during the game play charging time test. he wasn't charging it in dash charge during the test and when called on it, directly lied about it. so I call to question his authenticity but other than that I don't mind him

      @britannio 8 років тому +7

      Jonny Loo the OnePlus 3 has a better camera, performance, developer community, a faster fingerprint sensor, better OS, better build, dash charging and an alert slider. Also does expandable storage really matter when you have 64gb, I have used it since I had a OnePlus one and I think that it is enough.

    I'm loving my Axon 7 with 128GB and 6GB ram. I've had OnePlus 1,2,x, and now I've switched. I've wanted dual speakers forever! and now, I also get a 2year included warranty, and a QHD screen that doesn't compromise the battery life. Also! the MiFavor user interface is ugly and I dislike it, so I use Nova Launcher, from the play store, and it's just as awesome as my OnePlus phones. Lastly, the backlight buttons are missed very much, and the MiPop feature helps, but they need to include back lights next year, definitely. Also, the finger print is very accurate and fast, and for anyone that disagrees, then I recommend deleting and reprogramming you finger print. Maybe you didn't scan the edges if your fingertips enough, or you didn't scan your print with casual hand holding angles.

But the functions are what really matters, and it's clearly down in almost all of them except a few fractions of a second in opening some apps. To each his own, buy what you want for the reasons you want.

      Heyyo, err Android Authority gave OnePlus One an awesome image... but seriously, the ZTE Axon 7 has so many better design wins... stereo front facing speakers, their 2 year warranty sounds amazing compared to OnePlus's 1 year, Qualcomm quickcharge 3.0 instead of being locked down to dash charge parietary, SD card... there's stuff like QHD which is handy for VR content and higher brightness... so yeah, for the same price? ZTE Axon 7 has some REALLY big wins (speakers + SD Card + 2 Year Warranty) and other wins.. OP3 has 6GB of RAM and a little faster fingerprint reader... I own a OPO, but if my phone were to die? ZTE Axon 7 wins for me purely for the stereo front facing speakers and the warranty and QHD for VR (got my Cmoar headset coming down the line).

    (negligible?) difference between the snapdragon 810/ adreno 430 and the
    snapdragon 820/ adreno 530.
    please advise, because these three phones are almost at
    the same price where i live.
    fyi, i currently use an almost 4 year old lumia
    820 lol!

      WenJuckts everyone says the S7 has better battery life than the HTC 10, yet it takes around 9-11 hours for me to kill the battery even when I don't lock the phone and use it continuously. Peoples results vary on useage probably he uses an App with a high Sync rate and the OP3 doesn't have proper management for the app which the Axon 7 is capable of. Maybe the OP3 has problems connecting to the carrier (which drains battery life hardcore) that he is using with it while the Axon is perfectly fine which is actually more of a possibility since the OP3 has very little carrier comparability compared to the Axon.

  • @DerrickBest
    @DerrickBest 8 років тому +4

    Fingerprint scanner on the back, right where it should be. The Axon looks gorgeous, front facing speakers and don't forget the Oneplus 3 is not available in most countries. Axon 7 just killed the "flagship killer" Only OnePlus fanboiz will support that loser company that had a shitty invite system. Oh and the nexus 6p can be found for $399. That makes the OP3 less of a good deal in the price bracket.

Im glad i found out about this phone and that i could find one i wanted , i see phones but most always have something don't like like blu phones put their logo on the front and crappy speakers and i want a phone with finger print scanner , so after hours of looking for the best phone for the lowest cost out there i am happy to say im planning on getting the axon 7

    Very great comparison between the two phones. I already ordered and am waiting for my axon 7 phone. For those of you who say he is not a good reviewer and is more on the side of the axon 7, he tried both phones and came to his conclusion. I'm sure many of you have one plus 3 and are defending it at all costs. Don't judge until you try it yourself. Every phone has its flaws, no phone is perfect. You have to live with the flaws of your phone and make the best out of it. Based on this, I am actually leaning towards the axon 7 and there is a good chance software updates might improve low light pics of the camera.
