Too early to tell tbh. I am awaiting that and the water resistance info. Doubt I get this phone, but I am pleased with its improvements on paper.
Probably saving it for the One Plus 6T coming out 6 months from now in November. I wonder why they do this...
It's the identical phone to each iteration of OP previous to it, adjusted for current spec bumps.
With one caveat:
It now has a glass back for absolutely no reason other than aesthetics. If there's no functionality to the glass back, i.e. wireless charging, WHYYYY make the phone more prone to damage?

Same reason they included a notch.
I don't understand the notch either. Any way you cut it, this release is a step back from previous releases.
I wish every phone had a mute slider/button like the OP and iPhones
Not me. It's just another physical button to work itself loose.
3 vs 8 or 6? Based off some of the specs, you would think the iPhone X is a midrange device haha.
Not even the A11 processor can overcome a lack of sufficient RAM and poorly optimized software.
Have you ever had a mute button on a iphone or slider button on a OnePlus phone come loose?
I've had every iphone since 2007 and never had one come loose. I've had 3 OnePlus phones and never had a slider button come loose.
I’ve just ordered my oneplus 6 in mirror black, can’t wait to get it, pretty good price for the specs
Should be a good phone. I just don't trust OnePlus after sales support since their customer service is eh and they may not do a "partial repair" according to a recent Redditor's experience. Their old OnePlus device has a 2 year warranty and had a ding in it. OnePlus told them they do not do partial repairs since the warranty doesn't cover wear and tear; they didn't want to honor the coverage for totally unrelated issues like defective mics.
After seeing how it doesn't have 100% confirmed water resistance and the camera being decent, I am not 100% sold on going with a dodgy company. I'll wait and see, but I think I am willing to commit elsewhere for a phone to use for 2 years. I may go LG G6 and then get the Pixel 3 in October.
I've had one iPhone with a loose mute slider out of the box, and one grew loose with use. I hate physical buttons and go out of my way to use double tap, fingerpront sensors and lift to wake etc in order to avoid using them.
I sold my iPhone because of the terrible customer service I received from Apple support, I sure hope I don’t have issues from oneplus
Apple are the best in the business for customer support. Everyone knows this.
Well the expierience I had says otherwise, I sent an iPhone which had gaps in the back glass, I made it clear to Apple support I was sending it in because of these gaps however when they received the device they told me they couldn’t find anything wrong with the phone and sent it back along with a letter which would tell me what they have checked on the device, received the phone back with the letter and it never stated a single thing saying they checked the gaps and it said that the issue could have been caused by out of date software or from using an older version of iTunes, GAPS in a phone are not caused by outdated software or running an outdated version of iTunes. So I sold the phone and Apple won’t be getting a single penny from me ever again!
[doublepost=1527003506][/doublepost]Oh and just to add, when I sold the phone to mazuma mobile upon inspection they actually re valued my phone to just £190 because of these gaps, I accepted as I dont want anything to do with Apple again
