I like the new Pie gestures, but I will have to try out the One+ version and see what is better for me.
Got a tip for us?

The Pie gestures waste a ton of screen space on both the home screen and in applications.
I had a play with it at TMobile store, it is really nice.
V20 is a qualifying device and I have one. Damn.

.2 seconds for physical finger print sensor compared to .38 seconds for the under the screen sensor.
The definition of ‘noticeably faster’ isn’t what it once was.
Well am not sure I can keep the 3 XL at this point with the TMobile qualifying offer, way too much of a better bang for buck with the 6T. I can always revisit the Pixel when its price drops.
Gotta do something to offset my smartphone phobia and get good deals.

Got to give it to One Plus, their pricing on the 6T is excellent. I'm tempted to get the 8GB/256GB version.
My 8/128 in midnight black should arrive Tuesday or Wednesday. I picked up a black nylon case and a red silicone case as well.
Lol, I ran out of T-Mobile store this morning with a 6T after giving them my V20. I could not probably even get $50 for that phone.
Really like the pixel 3xl but I am returning it. 6T should hold my smartphone phobia back for awhile.

Just traded in a Z2 Force I got during the Best Buy $159 deal. This phone is DOPE. And that's coming from somebody whose main phone was a XS Max.

Played around with the 6T at T-Mobile today. I wasn't overly impressed. The haptic feedback (or the lack thereof) was very odd and I wish it was much stronger. There were some stutters while using OnePlus's navigation gestures. I didn't like the screen at all; the text looked odd; it reminded me of the headaches I used to get when I briefly had the Galaxy S8 (I believe the 6T has the same screen as the S8). I do like the Shelf, though--it's similar to the iPhone's widget screen; I prefer having widgets dedicated to one page in card form that way.
Also, I'm still very uncomfortable knowing that China would have access to my data (and would probably mine it) if I would get the phone. I'd be paranoid about that constantly.

Lol. Google and Apple can mine you all day long but China (who could do very little if anything with your data) can't. I'm sure the screen is perfectly serviceable.
Your data is already sold to China so don’t worry about that.
You are the first person I have heard of that has said you encountered stutters? Every reviewer I have seen on the 6T and every person that owns the 6 (including MKBHD) has praised One+ on delivering a stutter-free and fluid experience.
I played with one as well, and didn’t experience any lag or stutter. As far as haptic feedback, it def isn’t as strong as my iPhone X, but it is pretty much on par with other phones I have owned. Def not weak IMO.
That's why I don't judge a phone software based off demoes. Usually they have some sort of demo mode apps installed that are not very optimized and handicap the OS.
Not buying a OnePlus phone because you're worried about data mining LOL. Apple + Google already got to your data first, and sold it three times.
Fear of change. There are skeptics who are fearing the OP will beat Apple and Google at their own turf.
whiners doing what they do best, whine. it's as if other phone makers are paying them to trash OP.
Huh? I’m not scared of change at all; my previous phone was a Galaxy S8. There are valid reasons to be skeptical of OnePlus, despite the excuses OnePlus users use to defend the company:
