The OnePlus 6 is particularly snappy. Apps and menus seem to open even faster than the LG G7, another phone with a Snapdragon chip.
OnePlus explained that this added quickness is because it prioritizes what parts of an app it needs to load, increasing speeds by about 10 percent. It also made small efforts to increase performance in games and can boost network speed of those games by slowing down any apps sucking up data in the background. Battery life is about 1. Photo quality continues to slowly improve with each new OnePlus.
The megapixel main rear camera has a bigger sensor this time around, and does an adequate job under most conditions, even if it still struggles in low light sometimes.
Use OnePlus's 'Find My Mobile' Beta Version to. Under ideal conditions it can pinpoint the location of your phone. I tested it and it accurately located my device. Things to remember: > This works.

If there are, I might be in trouble. Then again, maybe not. On the whole, the camera is good relative to the cost of the phone, but it's nowhere near the quality of the Pixel 2. The only big caveat worth highlighting is carrier compatibility. Cellular, and others that use similar networks.
If you have a lot of photos or apps, get the GB version. For most folks, 64GB should be enough, but check the capacity of your current device just to be sure. This is a grown company now. For the last year, things have been quiet for OnePlus—at least where negative press is concerned.
Nay, quite the opposite these days—this is a company that we feel has overcome the growing pains of being new and trying to stand out in the crowd. Founded just a hair over four years ago—at the end of —OnePlus is a subsidiary of Chinese electronics manufacturer Oppo. The initial idea for the company was admirable: to make smartphones with high end components and features without the high end price tag. And you know what? For the most part, OnePlus makes good smartphones. On video. Nothing about that sounds like a good idea out of the gate, but it gets worse. If chosen, they would then smash their phone in the described manner, on camera.
Then they could buy a OnePlus One for one dollar. Sound crazy yet? People smashed their phones on camera not only before they were chosen to do so, but also before the contest even started. Phones are full of chemicals that are safe when housed within their intended enclosure, but prone to explode when put in certain conditions…like being smashed to hell. The OnePlus One was originally only available through an invite-only system.
This was put in place to combat the limited quantities available at release, but it just made things needlessly complex. In order to get an invite, customers had to jump through a series of hoops with things like contests. All just to buy the damn phone in the first place. Once they bought a phone, those customers were given a limited number of invites to hand out to friends and family.
If you were one of the lucky ones to get an invite, you had 24 hours to use it. After that, it was gone. God forbid you were out of the house that day, or on a family vacation. Shortly after the OnePlus One was released, some users complained of screen yellowing.

The pictures would then get upvoted by forum members—mostly men—and the top 50 got a free OnePlus t-shirt and an invite to buy the phone. Objectifying and sexist, Ladies First received a massive backlash as soon as it was announced—so much that the company cancelled it within hours.
This company was responsible for building the operating system that would run on the One. This is one of the things that made the OnePlus One so appealing to Android die-hards. This also later turned into a nightmare for OnePlus. While no fault of OnePlus itself, Cyanogen, Inc. This came at a bad time for OnePlus, as it caused a temporary ban of import and sales of the the OnePlus One in India.
This was the beginning of the end for OnePlus and Cyanogen, but the relationship took six months or so to really come to an end. The parking feature from the home screen is still in testing on the OnePlus launcher, so it has not rolled out to everyone as a stable release on the Play Store just yet. This means you have two options: Either check the Play Store and hope for an update to the OnePlus Launcher app you'll need version 3.

Now that you're using the latest OnePlus Launcher you'll be able to start using the parking location feature. Head to your main home screen page and swipe to the right to open up the Shelf page, which is packed full of many useful shortcuts and features.
Once you open the Shelf page, you will be greeted with a "Parking Location" message that wants you to know why it needs these specific permissions. Go ahead and tap "Accept" to enable the feature, and it should be at the bottom of the Shelf by default.
