[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] boricuastock:
I had a Pixel 3 XL and returned it. I was able to use both at the same time. I think the Pixel 3 xl feels better. I actually did like the squeeze sides to get to the voice assistant, but the 6t has the powerbutton shortcut which is similar, but not the same of course. Fingerprint reader was not near as responsive on the 3 xl as it was on my 5t. The swipe down for notifications worked about 40% of the time on the pixel. I think this was a bug, but it bugged me. No face unlock on the Pixel 3 was a disappointment. I know they are trying to be "secure" but meh, I like that about the 6t.

Unlimited camera storage is nice, but at the end of the day my wife takes a lot more pictures of the kids with her iPhone than I do. Camera isn't a huge deal for me as long as the pictures arent terrible. Most of the time I take pictures outdoors and the lighting isn't terrible so the pictures look decent enough.

As has been mentioned the RAM management on the Pixel 3 was terrible. I also thing the speaker on this 6t is about as loud and less distorted than the Pixel 3 xl. I have a moto x pure and the speakers on that thing sounded better than the Pixel 3 xl. I also think the screen looks better on the 6t than the Pixel 3. Colors on the pixel 3 are more muted and I feel like the 6t gets brighter.

All that being said, if they were the same price I would probably get a Pixel 3 for the instant updates and the dedication to the software experience Google has. The 6t is great. The face unlock balances the fingerprint reader and it is nice when the thing is on the table to be able to push the fingerprint to unlock instead of picking it up. I miss my swipe down for notifications, but I will get over that. At $500 dollars more, I didn't think the Pixel 3 XL was worth it in the end ($250 more if doing the BF deals - still not worth it). Although the experience was smooth, getting two years out of the hardware didn't seem reasonable and I will take much less of a hit on the resell of a OP over a Pixel 3. I have had a 3t and 5t and only lost about $200 on each. The Pixel 2's this year you are losing about $400+ on the resell if using something like swappa.

Both are great phones, for me it came down to money because the experience wasn't drastically different enough.

I am on Verizon and the 6t has been flawless. I don't have voice over wifi but I don't care about that either. I do care about VoLTE
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] mjnoles1:
Nice summary. I too do not care as much about the camera aspect. Now, to tell you the truth if money was no object I may get the 6T as I like what I have been reading about the speed and the batter life, it seems both of those things are better on the 6T which is important for me. But, with the 6T I have to pay cash upfront compared to Verizon which I can pay off monthly. Also, a new Black Friday deal seems to be coming up for the Pixel which really is making it hard not to just get the Pixel (even though I prefer the 6T):

https://www.phonearena.com/news/ver...-galaxy-note-9-pixel-3-iphone-x-more_id111198

That is quite a discount.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] boricuastock:
Only problem is the Verizon variant. Those do sell for less it seems since many want the unlocked. If you can unlock the bootloader some how then it is the same. Battery life on the 6t is definitely better. The Pixel 3 XL got me through the day for sure but not like the 5t or 6t does now. That is a definite plus.

Most reviews are slamming the 6t for not being a major upgrade over the 6. For those of us on Verizon it makes for a stupid conclusion on the review (yes they always have the caveat). One thing to remember is we are choosing between to great phones with lots of support.

Doesn't OnePlus have free financing you could do just like with Verizon or anyone?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] stealthj:
1+6T over Pixel 3 XL :

Some software optimizations, (gaming mode, parallel apps, etc..)

better use of the notch,

ringer switch physical key

UD fingerprint reader (which they say is supposed to be a generation ahead of vivo nex S, but as far as I can tell, its the same speed as my Nex S)

Twice the ram (instead of apps closing, they pre-load into memory for faster loading times)

around 400Mhz more processing power, felt ever so slightly while opening apps or updating through play store.

Dual Sim

No huge bottom screen bezel

Battery lasts about 20% longer

Higher rated screen protection (Gorilla Glass 6)

Records 4K video@60FPS

Price

3 XL over 6T

Higher resolution screen. ( I don't notice the difference.)

Faster fingerprint reader.

Smoother software

Don't need to worry about chinese spyware

The best camera on a cell phone

Unlimited online photo backup storage (probably region dependent, wife loves it on her pixel 2 XL)

Wireless charging? (Slow)

IP68 Dust/water resistant

Stereo speakers

USB 3.1

I have T-Mobile in California. Both phones get equal service for me, wifi calling is active on both phones when I'm not in range of cell, and the phones in general seem to perform the same, cell wise. Both Have the required bands for and support Extended Range LTE

As for the notification thing on the oneplus 6t. I am not sure if this is a BBK thing? Cuz i I had a similar issue on my Vivo nex S, but it was weird because it did not happen in china, only here in the US!

I chose the 3 XL as my primary driver though, because I do have young kids and I love to take pictures.

Also sometime when I open apps on the 1+, they hang at the splash screen and I have to reload, hmm....

If i take my phone off the charger at 8am, by 6am the next day (when I usually stick it on the charger), my pixel 3 xl has about 25% battery left, and the oneplus CONSISTENTLY had over 50% battery at 6am the next day, with about 3 hours of screen on time. so I'm sure during my heavy days, 5-6 hours of SoT shouldn't be a problem.

I had some other point I was going to make but I forgot while I was writing this :)

Oh, and I tried to ask OnePlus for a dual sim tray and I explained to them about flashing the stock rom and what not and they were like no it doesn't work you cannot do it, it will never work...... -So you have to deal with ultra-low-class trash OnePlus customer service
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ram4ufriends:
Are Pixel 3 photos any better than Pixel 2?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] mjnoles1:
Are you saying at 25% left in battery on the 3XL you only have 3 hours screen on time as well?

If the Pixel was the same price or less than the 6T (which it will be on Thursday and Friday of this week through Verizon) which phone would you pick between the two if you were only getting one? What about if you take the camera out of the equation, which one would you pick if they were the same price?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] mpetruzz:
You've got 5 pages of some pretty detailed comparisons. Each phone will have a return window should you not like it.

Personally I love my 6T and have 0 regrets about selling my 3xl. To have that damn notch and lose almost an inch of screen vs the 6T is huge for me personally. I compared the two side by side and its redonk how much space the 3xl wastes!!!!

And remember the Verizon deal locks you into a 24 month payment plan. I'd personally NEVER do that which makes the 6T the choice for me.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] stealthj:
Yes, around 3 or 3 and a half hours. . Same price at verizon? I'm guessing the bootloader to the pixel can't be unlocked if you're getting it on there but that's okay. If you take the camera out of the equation....that's a tough one. It's a toss up. 8 gigs of ram on the 6t but the software is super optimized on the Pixel

---------- Post added at 06:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:34 PM ----------

hmm. Haha i can't tell.... But reviews say they are a tiny bit better!
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] mac208x:
The pixel 3 and xl will be 150$ or 200$ for xl off at the Google store as well
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] capsnbottles:
I had the Pixel 3 xl and returned it because of the cost and got the OP6T from tmobile, unlocked it and flashed the international rom. OP6T is a great phone, hopefully roms and official twrp come soon. I ll be returning the 6t and getting the Pixel 3 xl again from google tomorrow because $700 is a great deal. When the prices are similar id rather have Pixel 3 xl to go with my Note 9.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Mike02z:
I just got my Thunder Purple 6t. I did some basic testing. Overall the 6t seems quicker. The 3XL boots about 5 seconds earlier than the 6t. The camera is better on the 3XL in my limited use. Not that the 6t camera is bad, it's just loses some detail you get on pictures with the 3XL. Especially in low light.

I don't put a lot of stock in benchmarks but here are my Anti Antu test results. Both phone had all their apps closed and each was rebooted.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] krabman:
Yep. I went into the Tmo store with both the 3XL and my old 5T and when I started putting them up side by side with the 6T to compare usable screen words just don't do it justice, you have to see it for yourself. IMO if people saw what we saw with them side by side there would be a lot less people contemplating a Pixel 3 XL purchase. I wasn't kidding about firing someone, the notch on the Pixel 3 XL should have never seen the light of day and the people who were movers on making it happen should be held accountable and finding work to which they are better suited elsewhere.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] olejonbj:
Probably apps using old and/or deprecated ways to send notifications (sticky services with custom JSON API check or setting AlarmManagers there or some third party cross platform messaging service not maintained anymore or built by themselves when Google offers it all, AlarmManager or GCM instead of FCM, well the last one, the legacy server is still supported I think to give devs some time people emigrate to Firebase. Anyway wouldn't trust GCM if they target Oreo or Pie, maybe just not analyzing their code or ignoring deprecated messages with tags in the code and ignore it until:

"As of April 10, 2018, Google has deprecated GCM. The GCM server and client APIs are deprecated and will be removed as soon as April 11, 2019. Migrate GCM apps to..."

... w00t I wrote a much longer message. Damn copy and paste with links I suppose from Google Dev Docs.

TLDR if it doesn't work they don't code it right. Don't use the right native framework for latest version of Android which maintains a looong backwards compatibility so no reason not to. Or maybe messing up somehow managing to compile their app using SDKs incompatible with a build tool version, basically meaning they can't be using Android Studio and don't Analyze their code. Maybe some cross platform **** they don't test, just the UI and as long as background stuff comes in on their iPhones it's ok... They MUST dogfood as everyone.

Never ever had a problem using FCM to any Android version or device, like 4 physical devices all on different versions, and emulators back to my latest supported version (4.2, before 4.0.3, worked fine there as well).
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Paz9:
yes

you will notice a massive improvement on reflective surfaces the p3 captures more natural and real looking photos while the p2 blows the reflections out and creates almost like a halo effect.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] suzook:
My wife has Pixel 3, i have OP6T, I am not noticing a difference in pics. Some are better on 6t, some better on pixel. Sorry, but i'm not buying this BS about how much better the pixel is for pics. My wife is actually going to exchange her pixel for 6t.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] krabman:
Yeah, OnePlus has upped their game on cameras, no question. On the other hand it's the difficult photos that get ya, not the easy shots. Things like odd lighting at dusk, inner city night shots, fast moving targets, etc. I found it to be a better camera but I'm no camera expert by any stretch. In any event, she wont miss the tumor...
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] mpetruzz:
While I love my 6T, there is absolutely no doubt the camera on the 3xl is superior. Before I sold mine I geeked out and took about 20 identical pics with both phones.

Yes the 6T hung in there but there were a few where the detail and colors in the 3xl pics was very noticeable.

Overall the 6T camera can hang for sure, but if you compare identical shots/lighting/etc you def see the difference.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] suzook:
I just said I compared the EXACT same photos. As stated, some better on 6t, some on pixel. It's a wash as far as im concerned.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] spjetrovic:
:cowboy: no regrets! Really liking the 6T.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] mac208x:
I must of gotten a defective unit. My camera on the 6t is freaking awful. It's grainy, won't focus, video looks like something out of 2005, colors are washed etc
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ram4ufriends:
I had OnePlus 6T for couple of weeks and returned the phone (might have got defective device)..

Wanted to see how Pixel 3 XL is and wanted to keep it as well...But I am not having good time with it..Software experience is not as fast and smooth as I had on OnePlus 6T...Have some annoying bugs (Wifi asking to connect after every restart, widgets asking to login after every restart)..3 XL has terrible battery life for me..I am averaging 4hrs SOT, but I got around 7.5hrs SOT on 6T and 6hrs on my Pixel 2 XL with same setup and usage...Turning off Always on display didn't help me either...

Pixel 3 XL Pros for me:

Awesome screen...I felt screen is way better than my 6T

Stereo speakers..I thought they are average based on reviews, but they are really good...

Awesome Camera

Always on display

Build quality

Vibrations across UI are pleasing as well

Voice calls seems to better as well compared to 6T

3 XL Cons:

Buggy software experience

Terrible battery life no matter what I do

OnePlus 6T pros:

Awesome software experience with added features here and there

Face unlock

Screen unlock (Though it is not as fast as 3 XL's back sensor, Still I feel front one is better)

6T cons:

Average camera (GCam mod is still being developed, so hope it can come close to 3 XL)

I felt phone is heavier

No always on display (I had Always on Display module installed, but it was buggy and not working)

No stereo speakers (I had stereo speaker module installed as well, but still not as good as 3 XL speakers)

3 XL cons are frustrating for me and made me think about returning it ..But I got this on $200 discount on Thanksgiving deal, so kept me thinking..

But I faced scary bug with 6T..Other side caller was able to hear me even after I disconnected the call..not sure if it was because of some defective unit I got..
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] dante`afk:
stunning, is that with gcam app?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] stealthj:
The Gcam app does wonders for the 6T

Some people say that its up in the air when comparing photos taken with 6T vs pixel 3.

I take maybe 30-40 photos a day of my little babies and I notice a big difference in quality and general image processing. the pixel 3xl always comes out on top in my opinion.

Of course this can vary from user to user and what the user perceives as a 'good photo'
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] spjetrovic:
Sure is, but the stock Cam isn't that far off.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] thiagoserrao:
Hi guys, i want to know if the Mate 20 X supports the 40W wall charger that come with the Mate 20 Pro, anyone to help with this question?

No only Mate 20 Pro.

Lol the battery will last all day you will be charging it when in bed anyway and half hour is over 50% charge anyway lol
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] WhySoSeriousJoKer:
Yeah i also saw it at Amazon.de and Giztop. It will work but not faster than normal charger. Huawei Mate 20 X is max 22.5W.

Yeh, i know ;D , but is always nice have a fast fast charger.

XD
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] torr310:
Will it be OK to charge it with other chargers such only 1A or 2A? I have some Samsung chargers and Anker.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Sebring5:
The Huawei charger works better than the OnePlus One charger even if is lower wattage. Charging is not all about the wattage. I actually charged a OnePlus One quicker on the lower wattage Huawei.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Cccmachins:
Probably will have to wait for the M30X to get Godlike charging of the M20P or buy an iPhone. I heard they give you a super fast charger in the box
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] 0alfred0:
Yes of course. I own mate 10 pro which also supports the same 22,5w. I am pleasantly surprised how fast it is charging with normal chargers...

Fast charging i only fast in the beginning anyways, it slows down beginning from roughly 60% getting slower and slower, to make sure the battery stays healthy. So all above lets say 70% is not much slower than the fast charger.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] walkwitmeinhel:
Dude i am using this mate 20x couole of weeks and you dont need to think charge your battery lol and also the default charge it in suoercharge you get almost full in 30 minute i think
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jasaero:
Has this actually been tested? A chance it doesn't ship with it, but can charge faster with it.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jasaero:
Obviously the charger will work, but will it charge at 40w?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jasaero:
I get that apsect. But this phone has 5000mah battery and probably could actually utilize the 40w better... but wasn't advertised as compatible. Oppo and OnePlus seem to have a more superior regime with higher amps to actually charge even faster with less heat and such ... But would be curious if anyone has tested Mate 20x with 22.5w vs 40w charge block to see if it seems the 40w is possible on 20x.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Sebring5:
I tested the Huawei 20w charger with the OnePlus One 6 and it was quicker than the 50 watt OnePlus One charger.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jasaero:
Now that is interesting. What amps is the OnePlus 6 charger?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Sebring5:
5 volt 4 amp
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jasaero:
Ok...so I guess Huawei is using similarly high amps to BBK brands. Just looked it up and Oppo Lambo 50w is 10v and 5a.

Still curious if the 20X will pull more than 22.5w on the 40w brick?? Wouldn't change times much, but could be worth having the 40w now and then when you are in a hurry

also i have sumsung fast charg i can use it ?

and what best fast car charger for mate 20 x

plz answer ty
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] LxMxFxD:
I put my Mate 20 X in-the-box charger on my kill-a-watt and got some interesting results. I was charging from 70%:

1. With in-the-box white cable: 17W from wall

2. With a braided, high end Wav-Link branded USB 3 branded cable: 11W from wall

3. With my generic USB 3 stand I got on aliexpress some years ago: 5W from wall

What this tells me is that if you wanna fast charge you must use the cable in the box. Very strange. I'm sure also, it will go to 22W if the battery were lower, say below 50%.

Edit: Took me 2 days (this battery is amazing) but plugged it in a moment ago @ 25% and indeed it pulls 23W from the wall (41VA) with the Huawei included cable.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] walkwitmeinhel:
I guess when i plug my mate 20x with quick charger 3 it say quick charging and if i plug just normal charger it say charhing so i think it support QC
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] jasaero:
Yes....the 4 amp charge rates require special lower resistance USB cable. Probably a bit more copper in the power leads that push juice and it can detect if that by the resistance it sees I am guessing.

So could it be possible to reprogram this chip to allow 40W??

Booted up my tornado (hadn't done so for a while) and it came up fine. Battery level was still good and then I ran a clear storage. It shut itself down and would never come back up again. Charging doesn't seem to work as I no longer get a light - left it like this for a few hours. Is this a battery problem or is the main board dead ? Anyone come across this ?

Just got a OP6. When on the lockscreen, the screen is tinted a lighter shade, never come across this before and it reverts back when you unlock the phone. I don't have face unlock enabled. Is this normal?

Also, brightness under 100% is very dim, have to have it at 75% to be the same as my Moto Z Play on 20%. Is this new on 9.0?
