I'm getting very fed up with iPhones. Was on vacation last week, and my (almost brand new) qualcomm iPhone 8 was the only phone in a group of 10 of us that was unusable due to low signal. Everyone else (mix of iPhones and androids, but no other 8s) could at least send a text or web browse. Basically the only thing keeping me hanging on is my Apple Watch, because I'd hate to have that device be money down the drain.
The Android that seems most appealing to me in the OnePlus 6t. The 7 Pro is impressive, but too big and heavy. Is a 6t still a good buy, even as it's being phased out? Will it be supported by OnePlus for the near future? I'm so used to Apple at this point, I have no idea what to expect from a competitor.

So you fed up with iPhones because of low signal while there are other iPhones that work fine right in front of you.

Sound logic.

There are other factors including your carrier, your wireless plan, your APN setting, your SIM itself, your network setting, etc etc. But hey, your logic makes more sense, even though there are contradicting facts right in front of you.

He probably using one with Intel modem.

But hey, Huawei P20 has better WiFi and LTE reception than my iPhone XR (returned with in 2 weeks).
