Saw this on reddit and ouch. personally I wish OP used high quality plastic vs glass.

A handful of posters that do not have the phone , posting on a thread of a phone that clearly was hit or dropped. It comes with a case. Tmo offers casemate for $20.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Elnrik:
Exactly. This is more an example of vocal idiots than any kind of issue with the phone.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] truckerdewd:
You can tell it was dropped or hit by something. In the sub Reddit thread, someone even pointed out that you could see the impact and when I looked closer at the picture and zoomed in, I could see it also.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Heisenberg420:
I read that post yesterday and was shaking my head. OP: "I woke up and it was like this???" And the top comment seems to agree it could have happened spontaneously. This of course is only possible on reddit.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jongcruz:
Why OnePlus used glass black in a phone without wireless charge? Unless the 7 Pro T comes with it so they will use same glass back.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] whoamanwtf:
Hell I could see the impact without zooming in, looks like a sharp edge. If he really doesn't remember it he probably drank and ran into a counter.

I don't understand what these people are doing to their phones, I've had 6 phones now and not one has ever been damaged like that, my Nexus 4's battery inflated like a balloon eventually but I was able to replace it. When I hand on my phones after replacing them they've always been in mint condition. Screen protector and a good protective case, that's all you need. I think it's just the iPhone mentality..."Nah, it spoils the looks bruh"

OnePlus 5

OnePlus 7 Pro

This is hilarious,the guy is hangover for sure,any glass phone won't break itself that bad, he surely hit something while phone was in hos pocket or he dropped it.

Btw ,today going to work i had my phone in between the car seats in a cup holder and i slammed on brakes ,phone flu hitting gear stick and landing on the floor . Nothing happened,i had the case provided in the box.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Apex i ITR:
he woke and it was like that because he dropped it while he was sleeping. He just left out a few key details.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] trapcoder:
Probably passed out on a bench after a late night outing and the phone fell on the pavement / tar road. Only on reddit. Everything is possible.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] turbotorsten:
So what do you think of the upgrade from 1+5 to 1+7? Worth it?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] djsubterrain:
7 Pro! :D ...and yes, definitely worth it if you passed the 6/6T. The UFS 3.0 alone is worth it. Startup time is stupidly quick.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] .vermilion:
I upgraded from 1+5 to 1+7 Pro. This was definitely worth it and I bet it's the same for an upgrade to 1+7!

I've had the paint off mine come off on a little spot below the alert slider.

Do you think this is some sort of manufacture defect or just my own carelessness?

I have been using the phone with the case (the one includes in the box) since the very beginning.

Although the case doesn't cover that part, I don't see how I could have caused the paint to come off. If it's just due to some light scratching due to my nails when using the alert slider then I'd be quite disappointed with the durability of the frame, especially since it's made of aluminium.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Aniruddha10:

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] turbotorsten:
Does anyone have the nebula blue? My metal frame is way darker at the top of the device than at the bottom. Is that normal? Bottom is more silver ish while top is more black
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] .vermilion:
Don't worry, it will!

I've got the Nebula blue as well. Can you please provide some images then I'll check.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] turbotorsten:

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] turbotorsten:
Here you go: The blue is what it normally looks like, the silver is under certain angles. At the side you can clearly see the color fade.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] .vermilion:
Okay, so I turned my phone for a few minutes now and was holding it in different light sources. I'm not able to see and color fadings, it's always rich blue, I can't see any uniformity issues.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] turbotorsten:
So there's also no color fade from top to bottom for you? Thanks for the help though.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] whatthekj:
That's their fault...

---------- Post added at 08:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:14 PM ----------

I have the nebula and so does my friend. It is completely normal. It is a gradient blue so the back glass should have the same effect as well.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] .vermilion:
I would say it's the same effect as on the back. Some kind of gradient. Looks totally fine and not totally off.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] truckerdewd:
I saw some reviewers comment it changed color when you moved it, like it would go from a silvery blue or chrome blue to a deep blue or black depending on how you tilted the phone. Check Unbox Therapy's review, he commented on it as did Erica Griffin and IJustine .
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] vukis:
Same pattern happened to me. https://imgur.com/a/XRUUhFd Forgot my backpack and got some longer receipt invoice receiving procedure in gas station and put in back pocket in "auto pilot" mode... Then sat in the car and some bad glass cracking noise reminded me about phone in back pocket. At first thought, that it's just a front screen glass protector, but it was intact. Back glass shattered. I don't know if it it's normal to crack with such usage case.

Now I am having other repair issue. All official repair centers needs me to send my phone for back glass panel replacement for +2 weeks! All non official repair centers can fix it in a day or so, but in that case I should provide them with new back glass part. I asked OnePlus if they can ship this part, but they refuse to do so. I can order from AliExpress, but I am not sure if I would receive product which is good enough.

Anyone had this back screen replaced by unofficial repair centers? Where did you by replacement from?

I could apply dbrand or similar and call it a day, but I am afraid, that integrity is compromised, and it's not as safe and moisture proof as it was before. I know, that if didn't have any IP rating, but it had some basic moisture proofness.

Legit cracked for no justified reason. No drop no bang no nothing.

I don't know who this guy is but I just got the OnePlus 7 pro the special edition almond and I had the case and it was in my pocket and I took it out today and it was cracked on the back right side. This guy would not even give me his manager just kept repeating the same thing over and over and over and I'm trying to help him understand this is not normal and it's a one off situation and to get me a manager I searched to see if there were any known issues with people experiencing this. I have never had any phone in my life with any type of damage. I'm so disappointed. I can't imagine what will happen if I were to accidently drop this phone. Case and in pocket I just don't get it smh. I would own it if I deserved to have to pay to fix but seriously? In a case in your pocket and you should see it. I see you guys talking about being able to tell if it was hit I'm curious to everyone's opinion. Isn't this Gorilla glass too? I know it's not the newest Gorilla glass but man you got to be kidding me. The worst customer service experience.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] makksi:
I don't understand why some people have prejudiced about who is saying the back glass cracked without any drop. I can ensure after 4 months I had the same crack on my Oneplus 7 mounting since the first day the plastic cover provided by Oneplus. I had 20 years of smartphone and I never cracked a back cover. Most of them was plastic, and some glass. The problem is that back glas today is so thin, so delicate that I think it is not the right material for a top class phone. You can see lots of phone which are cracked in the back because of a drop, more often then the front glass.

So instead of "trolling" saying people are lying, try to understand the reason why it really happens because the back glass is inadequate. Don't be opposite biased just for fun.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Gorgice:
So I just pulled out my phone from my pocket with cracked glass on the back. I did see a few threads with people having a crack on the same location. Has there been any more reports in terms of glass cracking by itself or am i just unaware that i might've bumped into something. This occurred while walking down the street, there was no crack before that.

Also the phone has never been dropped and has been in the OEM case since i got it.

I find it weird that it could just crack like this by itself because by looking at the pattern it looks smashed in. Im at the point where i question reality :confused: :(

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] blackst225:
I've had this crack in the same direction out of nowhere too...

Always in a case no drops...
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] That0nepotato:
This seems to be an issue on oneplus 7 pros I've had mine for 3 months and when i set it down and plugged it in right before i went to sleep i noticed that the back glass was cracked near the volume rocker.

On a sidenote, this person oneplus 7 pro was straight up dropped or hit.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] kev1807:
the position is always the same on the pictures that I saw, and always a black phone (?)

maybe there's too much tension on the frame around the volume buttons?

By the way, I find your volume button is coming out quite strangely (far more than on m nebula blue version, I'd say), was that before?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] stuclark:
This thread is perfect - a perfect example of the "OnePlus can do no wrong" attitude of many posters, until enough "noobs" or "idiots" stick their heads above the parapet and prove the fanbois wrong!

These repeated cracks are a worrying development - it looks like OnePlus have some form of manufacturing or assembly issue that's causing excessive stress over time. Pity some people will refuse to believe that ad infinitum!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] TheKnux:
Mines still fine and I got mine the day it was released. I work in construction and I'm constantly dropping my phone from ladders, the work truck, etc. Maybe y'all are just a bunch of idiots. ?*♂️
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jaseman:
Wait a minute here...mine is still OK but these people are not idiots! If the phone was dropped, or hit against something, why are the cracks always on the back under a CASE????? Would not the front glass be smashed under the same circumstances? It is always the back.... inside a case..... there's something wrong with the glass. It may be a certain manufacturing run. The back is not "inside" the frame at all. It is just glued to the back and resting on the frame, so either it is too thin in some places, or it is being stressed by the use of the various physical buttons, or the process that is used to push the glass onto the glue if causing stress. Under such stress a change in temperature could cause this paper thin glass to shatter. The front glass is supported more thoroughly by the digitizer that is glued to it, whereas the back glass is just "floating" without any real support over the entire back of the phone electronics.

Someone needs to start a major web shout out to OnePlus to get them to honor their warranty and fix this issue. I would recommend a person who is popular on YouTube....this will get their attention!

I also think it's high time that glass go the way of the Dodo Bird and top grade plastic be used on the backs of ALL phones.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] coolchris305:
mines just did the same. same area near the volume and power button. no drops and had the case on it. this is not good tbh.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] amritpal2489:
Mine too developed a crack near power button in the same way despite the phone being in cover and no drops or bumps. There is surely a manufacturing defect at play here. In my history of owning and using smartphone for last 15 years, never had broken anything
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] stuclark:
Well said! Your post called out the exact fanboi behavior I alluded to in my post; and you're absolutely right - these people with cracked backs to their phones are NOT all idiots, far from it!

It is time the OnePlus fanboi community started accepting that OnePlus aren't a golden gonad and actually called them out on these issues.

(unfortunately when I tried engaging with OnePlus regarding the lack of firmware updates for the 5G model, they were absolutely un-interested)
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] CosmicInsight:
From what I've seen, the cracks are more or less in the same place. I'm fortunate enough to not experienced it (yet, and hopefully not).
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] galaxys:

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Darius_bd:

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] xdamember143:
I messed up and didn't get insurance when I just got the phone so now I have no way to replace it .... Rip
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rootSU:
Mine cracked today, though it was my fault. Put it on a stand 6-6.5fts above ground, and forgot. Somebody called and the vibrations would've made it crawl to the edge and fall on the tiled floor below. Even though it was in a cheap case (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32952490708.html), the back got cracked, saw it lying on the back when I got there. The screen however was intact, so it was a cheap replacement by OP service center ($40) for the back and took just a couple of hours. The screen thankfully is undamaged, so that's a relief.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] shooterlgk:
I'm assuming u have an op center near by, I was GNA ask u if how long the process of sending in the phone and getting it repaired took but nvmd...

It was in my pocket. I was leaning against my car and I heard a pop. My first thought was no way. Sure enough the back glass broke. F@#k

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] cavist:
Why not? It's just a glass phone with tempered, curved and fragile thin glass back that people without imagination are carrying it in the back pocket of their jeans, sitting on it while driving a car and then being surprised it broke. Want to avoid that? Buy a plastic Motorola. Want to have a fancy glass sandwiched electronics? Buy any current flagship hone and better watch out for it. Simple.

Same as with buying a expensive watch and then complaining it got scratched and/or cracked while using it daily and swaping an engine on their 76' Mustang rather than wearing it for just a special occasion like business meeting. Same if you buy a McLaren and park it at supermarket crowded parking lot and then complain somebody opened their door on your car and you now need to pay 25k for replacement panel because it is carbon fiber and with very expensive paint job and premium rates for ML bodyshop work service.

Just converted my mirror grey to nebula blue because the back glass broke. I have to say it looks amazing. I was a little worried because the aluminum frame is grey and not blue but I think it looks better than blue frame that comes with the the OG nebula.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] cantenna:
Just got my one plus two weeks ago, have dropped it numerous times, on asphalt too. Did I mention it's been in a military grade case since I got it? Not a scratch on the phone itself.

Sorry to hear you accidentally broke your phone... Suppose you could get. Case now and hide the damage.

I think glass back are better for heat transfer; why it's preferred over plastic.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] cavist:
Aluminum as a material has almost 250x greater thermal conductivity than glass. You can categorize aluminum as a conductor and glass as a insulator.

Glass is used because it's shiny at looks overall way more premium and luxurious. Same with piano black plastics spammed in all new, mostly European cars. Nobody cares it gets scratched almost by simply breathing toward it or any light source is reflected and creates unnecessary flash sources. It is used purely because of the aesthetics reasons, not functionality and durability. Same with smartphones.

Who would pay for a boring aluminum unibody without being bling-bling when they can have a pretty glass sandwich that looks better?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jrmt077:
I never got how glass came to be a "premium" back material. I understand that it allows wireless charging and is more scratch resistant than shiny plastics. But as consumer (actually manufacturer) tastes now move to glass finishes with light scattering and 3D effects as marketing gimmicks (do we all just sit and stare at the back of our phones that much?) it seems we are stuck with glass as plastic materials may not offer the same light scattering properties. To quote a famous YouTuber: glass is glass and glass breaks.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] cavist:
Even with aluminium back, probably still 95% of users needs to have some type of case anyway to protect corners and front glass. I personally would like to have a metal unibody like on my previous owned HTC devices and I would still carry it in a case to protect the front and corners. All I care is internals and front panel, since having a case is pretty much a must, the shiny looks does not matter at all because they have their moment only during presentation of marketing materials and during unboxing. After that, everything disappears and is meaningless.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] CosmicInsight:
I think a unibody build would have been much better since recent OnePlus phones don't come with wireless charging.

So I did the clear back glass mod and then I dropped my phone into the ground getting out of the car phone was in my lap first time and last time lol got out fell. Didn't think much of it cause I had the case on it but got hot took it off glass was broken. Question you guys think if I would have left the film on not making it clear would it have took the impact with no problem? I'm wondering if that file makes it a bit tougher I know it's just film?*♂️ IDC I repairs phones anyways just my thoughts
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Amd4life:
I sat mine on the desk, backside down, inside the tpu case. Picked it up, turned it over and the back is cracked to all hell. I certainly didn't drop it, maybe it was just heat and time. My device is 5 months old. I too wish there phones would go back to aluminum.

Not just huawei, this effectively means they are free to do this to any manufacturers in the world. Time for new OS to emerge.
