The wireless charging complaint is so ridiculous on a OnePlus device when they give you ACTUAL fast charging AND the CHARGER IN THE BOX. Wireless charging is far less efficient and more damaging to long term battery health. KZitem reviewers make the same complaints all the time about OnePlus but don’t complain that Apple, Samsung and Google took chargers out of the box and didn’t complain when Apple took away the headphone jack. Wha about those folks who bought nice wired headphones or earbuds? Please keep the same energy for these other OEMs that everyone always seems to have for OnePlus. Other than that, good review. But the wireless charging thing is so irrelevant given everything else that OnePlus has on offer here

Great review there! I've recently changed to a OnePlus Open from a Pixel Fold (which I was pleased with) but this is on another planet. It resllys like a mini tablet when open, thanks to the lack of crease. Like yiu said, camera is very impressive. I tried the zoom module at 6x, then was just as impressed at 10x. Then I took a photo of a Robin at nearly 400mm full frame equivalent, it was still sharp with good detail. Certainly one of the best phones I've ever owned. Also, I must be one of the few without any wireless chargers. I do like the fast charging though.

I also realized that I don't game on my phones as much as I thought I would so having a gaming centric phone is a bit pointless.

Waiting on mine... was expected yesterday... now 12/15🤯 Only thing I disagree with here is your comments on wireless charging. 1. Wireless charging hasn't changed much since its inception, the only real change is that Apple jumped on board and brought magsafe to the table. 2. Speeds are tragically slow 3. The device is basically unusable while charging, as soon as you pick it up you break the cycle. Years ago I thought it was great but as time went on my wireless chargers went in a drawer due to the convenience of wired charging. One Plus takes that convenience factor to a completely different level. I think we need to start letting go of the wireless narrative until the tech starts to catch-up; a 3+ hour charge just aint it!!
