[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] zeno78200:
My thoughts after almost 1 year:

1) too heavy.

2) metal quality really poor. After paying a lot of attention the phone has all metal angles washed-up.

3) Screen is not responsive from time to time and this is annoying while using with 1 hand

4) home button randomly not responsive.

5) good feeling while having phone on the ear while talking.

I would not buy it again.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] dejan16v:
With Sandstone cover it feels good and I quite like it.

With Bamboo and Rosewood style swap covers it feels a bit slippery.

It feels just great in original silicone case.

Screen size is just right for me

While Oxygen OS can be buggy, it is as clean as it gets apart from a Nexus phone. With only nice features like a dark theme and permission settings, the feature set is simple, yet useful.

They need to add features like in cm 13..
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] _MetalHead_:
They wisely took the Motorola approach- near stock with a few added but useful features. It's perfect, IMO. My ROM flashing days are far behind me.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] muqtaliff:
A near stock experience; they could have chosen a name without adding OS at the end. There are simply not so many features for it to merit an OS tag...
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] crapula512:
Oxygen it's far from being a mature OS. Specially the first version felt like a beta.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] eirigance:
I love the look of Oxygen OS, but I could do without the bugs :)

I would like to be able to remove the Google search bar, disable the notification led while charging and I would like to be able to adjust the grid size on the home screen, with such a large screen all the icons look novelty oversize with the stock launcher.

1. You can remove search bar (long press on main screen --> Options, there it is

2. Xposed module ---> GravityBox

3. Change DPI or also Gravity BOX

Anandtech frowns on the greys

According to Anandtech the accuracy of colour is not very good, especially in the greyscale range. Also, he says that it is a little too blue even otherwise. Does anyone here have any different opinions?

(Can't post the link here yet)
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] msohail_7:
Color saturation is very poor, as I have switched from Xiaomi Mi4 it looks as if colors are washed off.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] Kirahvi:
The stock calibration is too bleak for my taste. I added a little more contrast and saturation. It's android after all
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] Capilleary:
Coming from the Galaxy Note 2 and LG G3, I'd say the colors are great. Not insane like on Galaxy phones though, but much better than on LG G3. For blue/red, the color temperature is settable even on the stock OxygenOS. It appeared too warm at first, so I sent the dial almost all the way to "cool" to get what seemed like a correct white color.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] kimas65:
I had note4 and oneplue 2 color saturation is very bad.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] alexferdean:
Using Boeffla kernel I managed to get this display almost perfect concerning whitebalance and colors.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] tlxxxsracer:
How about lets see some display settings you guys used to improve color/image quality ;)

I find the screen too cool (I came from a s6 which i found too warm).
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] itsLewin:
Would love to see some settings too. :)
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] krishna442:
for me by far, the best display is Samsung AT&T Captivate, no phone had reached my expectations until now. I'm satisfied with OnePlus 2. I would be happy if someone shared KCAL settings.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] Chris-woods:
Hi i'd like to have a screen like Samsung Phones with good saturation and good contrast. How can I do for changing those option(If I need boeffla kernel how can I configure the app for having à magnific screen?)

(I haven't installed yet but I will do it soon)

Thanks
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] GiMo84:
As a happy owner of a x-rite ColorMunki, I've managed to find the time to run some tests on the phone screen and find a suitable configuration for Boeffla Kernel's color settings.

First, some values for the un-calibrated display, with the default configuration (rgb 255, saturation 255, hue 0, display value 255, contrast 255) and maximum brightness:

Black level = 0.2751 cd/m^2

50% level = 122.72 cd/m^2

White level = 578.07 cd/m^2 (quite close to the 600 cd/m^2 that OnePlus claims)

Approx. gamma = 2.24

Contrast ratio = 2101:1 (am I mistaken or OnePlus claimed "only" 1500:1??)

White chromaticity coordinates 0.2896, 0.3019

White Correlated Color Temperature = 8532K

Gamut coverage: 90.1% sRGB (not great)... http : // imgur. com /wb8kylH ... sorry but I can't post proper links yet.

Extremely "cold" color setting, with a quite remarkable contrast ratio and decent brightness. I'm quite impressed by this display!

To achieve a D65 (6500K) whitepoint and 2.2 gamma, as per sRGB standards, I've used the following settings:

red: 255

green: 233

blue: 159

saturation: 255

hue: 0

display value: 260 (it basically affects the gamma)

contrast: 255

resulting in:

Black level = 0.2804 cd/m^2 (shouldn't change)

50% level = 122.72 cd/m^2 (dictated by the gamma)

White level = 517.92 cd/m^2 (lost some brightness, unavoidable)

Approx. gamma = 2.19 (much closer to 2.2)

Contrast ratio = 1847:1 (I can live with that!)

White chromaticity coordinates 0.3121, 0.3288

White Correlated Color Temperature = 6540K

In my opinion, increasing the saturation above 255 is counter-productive, as it will only result in clipping. Furthermore, the vast majority of media content (unless you're working with professional Adobe RGB-based workflows) has most likely been designed for sRGB devices - or at least something with comparable gamut coverage. AMOLEDs are exceptional in terms of "color richness", but might result - if not properly calibrated - in unrealistic over-saturated colors.

The side-effect of these settings is the appearance of banding in images with blue gradients, such as... blue skies. I'm afraid, though, that this can't be solved in any way.

Cheers
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] tofuboi01:
Ive tried these settings and it just made my screen really yellow and warm, I still prefer using the "extreme amoled" setting listed in AK's kernel thread.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] GiMo84:
Well, all displays differ physically... but most importantly it's a matter of personal preference.

Personally, I am accustomed to the "yellow and warm" display (I'd find the default settings way too cold and blue :) ) as it matches every other screen that I have around me, and I find it appropriate to rely on an industry-standard color space/calibration. At this point, I can blame the content creator (i.e. whoever took the picture/drew the image) for not using sufficient saturation :D.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] tofuboi01:
I am using your screen value, contract and saturation setting though, it makes a change from the extreme amoled look but using opposite colours, R:235,G:245,B:256. I prefer cooler/whiter looking screen i guess haha.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] demongokul:
Rooted, flashed boeffla kernel, installed boeffla app and adjusted color, saturation and gamma. Looks better than any other 1080p for me now.

which is the best phone overall?? i have a note 4 and im thinking to buy oneplus 2

Stay with note 4
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] kimas65:
hi.

witch type of note4 do u have?

dose your note4 has 4g or two sim support?

Note4 has better display color, better resolution, better battery than oneplus2, and has pen.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] cowgaR:
dreadful color accuracy

Hi All,

I'm enthusiast photographer so know a little about color spaces and screen quality (contrast for that matter)...I prefer saturated colors (not much though) on my mobile devices, as it's not a photo reviewing machine. I've been fooled into buying this phone when my need for dual SIM phone fell on this pick (from GS5) as my work phone. [fake] Reviews said how good the screen is (too bad I haven't read XDA review first) but I never seen such a bad unsaturated contrast-less screen on any phone, and I have more than dozen android phones in my personal possesion (and over 20 in 'android career').

I usually prefer AMOLED and let me start first here - there's no comparison to screen quality full stop. So I picked my LCD HTC One X+ (hardly used) that was taking dust for 3 years as I knew it had amazing screen back in the days, run display tester... not comparison either. Actually, I don't have phone with such a weak display at home!

So I opened my amazing trusted Latitude E6410 laptop, the greatest Dell ever built (still works!) with the cheapest poorest screen though 'made for business'. Guess what, this washed out Latitude is having better contrast than One Plus Two. And I thought I never will see worse screen.

I'm keeping the phone as business, 810, having two sim cards and bigger screen running CM13 is more important for me than color quality, but it's quite a shock from my previous phones... won't be having it more than 6 months so what...f^%k it.

Can't wait for Galaxy S7 edge enough, dual sim version with Qualcomm running CM14 please :)

[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] saurabhp75:
The colors look washed out, even in comparison to OPO. What is experience of other users?
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] Kirahvi:
The colors are natural and give a "true to life" look. Go ahead and bump up the saturation and contrast for that "amoled look" if that's your thing. We are on android after all.

1080p is more than enough for a phone or tablet.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] jixbo:
The display color is way better than nexus 5 and OPO screen. Bright is also good when high, and gets very low too. The resolution is great, not missing QHD at all.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] maxvision:
I will agree with saurabhp75 that the colours are not as vivid and looked washed out compared to the OPO. The only settings are brightness and colour balance which goes from cool to warm. I do agree that it is brighter than the OPO though.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] shigi1231:
For those complaining that the colors seem "washed" out, that is true to life colors. If you want to have that AMOLED like saturation, we are on android after all, flash AK kernel or Boeffla and from there google the gamma settings for the kind of color reproduction you are interested in ;)

Color production is subjective in this case, it is unjust to call the onplus 2's display as sub par lel
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] Frenk_Ryder:
1920x1080 resolution on 5" bit small but for my eyes enough. HD Videos, HD Pictures looking sharp and not pixelised.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] rahmannek:
super amoled is the best, screen clarity /color is not ok, if u compare with samsung's amoled screen, i'm not satisfied with OP2 sceeen :(
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] M3ntoR:
Flash AK Kernel, Change colors to some AMOLED-like mode. Then colors would be over contrasted and not natural...if that's what You want, You can do this. OP2 Screen is amazing. Whites are white and blacks are almost 100% black. I'm really happy with it
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] PedexGaming:
Install a custom Kernel and increase the saturation to 40-45. It looks much better now, and much more pleasing than the OPO's display. That one always looked weird and cheap to me.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] otonieru:
Resolution n sharpness is good. FullHD is still pretty much enough for our eyes.

Agree that color is slightly dull (i always compare color with iphone - the most natural screen you can have) but its easy to tweak using kernel that have KCAL setting enabled. So no issue there
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] tejaswy:
Mate! Really? You think the screen is bad? It is just not saturated. I have a Sony Xperia Z3, Galaxy Note 3, and an LG G4, and Honestly, I cannot tell the difference. Let me get a little technical in the hope of helping you understand it better.

If you feel a magazine page and the photos on a magazine are crisp enough, they are printed at 300dpi. Fine art printers go to 720dpi. And no one really goes beyond that. And from a foot away, even a person with perfect eye sight cannot see more than about 450ppi. The One plus two pushes more than 400ppi, and that I believe should be plenty, unless you want to plaster your eyeballs to the phone screen (which would result in you losing your eyes, unless the screen is turned off ;) ).

[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] TS50:
WiFi on the OPT is amazing, my router is at the front of my house and my bedroom at the very back, most phones can only just pick up a WiFi signal in the bedroom or in my back yard, usually it's better to turn WiFi off because the signal is weak and the speed it slow.

However the OPT holds a stronger signal with no loss in speed

As a dual sim user I'm severely disappointed. If you're using a single sim the phone works fairly well. If you use dual sims whichever one is not set as the data sim will be lucky to receive calls and when you do it is garbled and unusable. This is my only issue with this phone.

This is going to be an area I will be paying close attention to, I spend a lot of time in remote areas so I will be keeping my old faithful s5 in my vehicle just in case it doesn't perform like I hope it will
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] khaos64:
I used to have an iPhone 6 and I am weekly in an area where I can only get one bar with LTE. With nothing going on I regularly stream movies/anime. I have since went from the iPhone to zenfone 2, I could get a signal but only 4g and barely. So I returned it and I've now had the OP2 for a few months and at first it will pick the(stronger but not faster) 4g connection but by manually changing to "LTE only" in the hidden menu I get the same connection as the iPhone. Just need to change it back when done or else no phone calls.

Overall it's satisfactory as I am able to do what I want to do, would just be nice not to go through the extra hoops to do so.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] TS50:
For a phone I was quite worried about it's doing well so far, usually in my living room I'm at 1 bar LTE signal, the OPT is sitting on 3 bars.

Will still need to see how it performs in remote areas.
[OnePlus 2 Real Life Review] TS50:
If you use this phone outside major cities in Australia, you will definitely need to be on Telstra.

bad signal strength on oneplus 2

compared with my htc butterfly 2 and another low-end android, one plus 2 running latest Oxygen OS has serious connectivity issues. I compared the signals strength using same sim card in same location (including being connected to the same tower) and One Plus 2 keeps dropping the connection and has really poor signal strength. I have tried the *#*#4636#*#* and tried different network modes, but none of them are helping. Its a real disappointment that the basic feature of this phone is screwed up.

I have tried with CM13 as well. Any ideas if this is a modem version issue?
