- it tooks 4months for samsung to get MM to his flagship
- battery life is lame
- worst ram menagment phone ever ,, cant handle more than 3/4 tasks
- for my opinion selfie cam is so fake with that "beauty" filter
- reception in LTE / 4g was so bad (max 3h sot with mobile data)
- they didnt post kernel source so it lacks in developing
- BLOATWARE all around ... more than 300 apps+ services
- a lot useless stuff, flip to mute , proximity to ear call , IM NORMAL PERSON I CAN DO IT BY MYSLEF, im not handicapped
- 2560 x 1440 was so bad move for a 5.1 inch display . in 1080p more battery life , less pixel to show , more cpu power , more gpu power etc
thigs ive liked :
_ the build was so good
- it was amazing fast phone (even with touchwiz , imagine what can he do in cm13 , but they never gona have stable cm13)
- fast charging , 1h22min 100%

If you are coming from an iPhone every Android is worth buying. And OnePlus Two is very cool if you ask me..

If I'm not looking to tweak the phone, just want something to get away from iOS, is this still a solid choice? I see lots of issues, but it's hard to discern what is causing what.
No, my advance go with Nexus. I miss Nexus

OnePlus 2 is perfect from my point of you. But not the software. The hardware of the device is beast. Software by OnePlus is no match to if. If you want to buy OnePlus Two you should tweak to get most out the phone. So it's in your hands. Perfect hardware, OK stock software. Of course the Device heats up a bit. If tweaked its the best phone in its range. If you don't want to tweak, you can use stock but wait till marshmallow.

Oneplus 2 and nexus 6p are both good phones for their price range. If you have a bigger budget, i would get a 6p because its better in terms of software updates (they have marshmallow already). For me i haven't experienced many bugs with oneplus 2, others in the forum have had minor bugs. Battery life is not bad, i get around 6-7 hr screen on time with YouTube only with a bit of internet.

I really like the 6P and OP2, but both seem to have some issues. Some bigger than others. And I know no phone is perfect. I can spend up to what a 64gb 6P would cost me, but saving money is never a bad thing. My 6s Plus has no issues, but the OS is so stale and I'm going nuts without the simplest of customization.

I truly need Dual SIM for lot of international travel..this is one of the few or only phone that supports 4G/3G dual sim standby. I have heard on T-Mobile even VoLTE works (I am on ATT, don't ask if not for their coverage i would have switched)..but the only band missing is 66 which T-Mobile is planning to roll out, but it would be ages for that to be widely deployed, and by that time you can get Mi Note 3 ..
Hi,
As far as I am concerned, I would stay away from this phone
It's really nice... on paper !
But real life looks quite different.
First, despite having cloase specs to the Xiaomi mi5s Plus, I could compare them both side by side : in EVERY aspect, the mi Note 2 is beaten by it's Xiaomi sibbling.
Second, the display is simply a catastrophy... unless you really like blueish displays and ****ty view angles. It's AMOLED. The Xiaomi mi5s Plus which has IPS doesn't suffer from that.
Third, the GPS is lazy, always showing you 10 meters behind where you really are. Here again, the mi5s Plus is much more accurate !
It might be that I have got a defective device. But at least about the display, I had the exact same symptoms on the OP3 I got the very first day it was released
SO I guess : AMOLED might offer really random performance
Regards
My husband bought us mi note 2's. We have owned them for 4 months. I personally have no plans on buying another u.s. marketed cell phone. I highly recommend the mi note 2. I have the 128GB storage phone.

Just to give my experience so people seeing this don't immediately think this phone is awful... I've had mine (Global 6GB/128GB) for about a week and it's been great. Last phone was a Nexus 6P but I'm liking this much more. The display isn't as high resolution as the 6P but that is only really noticeable when reading small text. I don't have any issue with the display being "blueish" or poor viewing angles. GPS is also fine for me so I'm wondering if you did get a defective unit.
Get the phone you won't be disappointed. I have had the global edition for a couple of months and it poops on anything else .. Side by side with the Samsung S8 and this phone looks pretty much the same. It is not as fast as an S8, but then costs half as much, and it has loads more memory, dual SIMs, is still one of the fastest phones out there, and the display is plenty good enough. Maybe not the phone you should get if you find blowing ROMs exciting but if you want a phone that works really well out of the box this is it. The benchmarks appear to be better for the international edition so get that one, with 128gb. Remember that Xiaomi make more phones than Apple so you can bet it is going to be a solid product.
If the poster above actually owned the phone they would be competent enough to flip into the settings and adjust the screen settings to warm if they want a warmer looking screen. You can also set the screen to remove blue light at night if you want that sort of thing.
I am running dual SIMs with no issues internationally.. 4g is fast. The front end is Miui which is a bit quirky but has a bunch of good features built in.. And, having a 4000ma battery you can get a couple of days use out of the phone between charge on light use. The GPS is really good, helped by the fact that most of the phone is glass. So you get a fix real fast. Best phone I have ever owned for sat nav in a car. The GPS doesn't suck the battery dry either.
Camera is good, not brilliant but it's better than many Chinese phones. I am comparing to a DSLR which costs twice as much as the phone so probably a bit unfair! Double the resolution of the S8 phone...
This isn't a hacker phone.. It is a good phone that just works and has an interesting launcher with good features to help you control your privacy and battery use.. Usually the things you need to root your phone for.. With this phone you don't need to root to do that, and that is really handy. I do actually own this phone so feel free to ask questions

I've had mine for going into three months now. I'm in the US using T-Mobile and I've had only one issue with it so far (I have a few issues taking calls on a wired headphones). Overall, really satisfied with it.
Is it still worth getting in 2017? Any problems now!
screen and camera mediocre.
I just got mine and going to start using it. Initial impressions, it's a BEAUTY. The black one is a SEXY monolith. Very minimal in curves and subtle in design. Nothing jazzy. The bad part - Only the screen/display. Yes the resolution is a little less. But honestly, you wouldn't even notice it. 6GIGs OF RAM DUDEE! What else do you need? And 128 is more than enough. For that price, you will usually compromise on something or the other with other phones, not this one.
I currently own an S6 Edge+ and the battery has degraded heavily so I am currently looking for a new phone and this one looks very promising, but will it get Android Oreo?

Of course it will. Any Custom Rom can do the trick.. Just save money ..
Mi Note 2 worths it !
I have a discount code for today for this device at 220 euros and I am really wondering if it's worth it. It's the 6/64gb version.

Gearbest. I can also get it for 217 euros. but after using my credits.
Without credits, you can get it for 230 euro
I just love that phone.
I have this phone for month now and it great, fast, stable, no heating, great battery life. After all I think its worth baying this phone.
I confirm I got this phone few days ago from Gearbest, paid it 213€ with shipment included. I will now request bootloader unlocking so I can add root. I am planning to keep stock MIUI, really hoping it's going to get MIUI 9 before christmas.

Actually , it is . Mi Note 2 has already Miui 9 in nightly realease state for the global rom .
I am on the zenfone 2 right now, so this would be a big upgrade for me.
I am not the person who buys phones every year, so given the issues people are reporting for the OP5,
should i go for the OP 3T. My friend uses it, and has had no issues uptil now.
3T might be a bit behind the OP5, but still is a great phone. What should i go for?
I still recommend to buy the OP5. Yes, it has issues (BTW i just got a little jelly effect (which could be fixed later), i had no WiFi/Bluetooth issue), but still, i'd get one if i were you.
Tbh, just get OP 3T. You'll save money. I had the 3T and I'm on the 5 now, felt like the same phone minus the obvious thinner feel in the hand. Anybody who's already on 3T, don't waste. It's not worth it and the 3T has OIS.

I never had any heating issue on my OP3T tho (You can check on their XDA forum). I know on Antutu you see the number difference but tbh, real life usage, you can't really tell the difference. It's too little . The dual camera is good but not great, same goes to OP3T. It's up to you, really. If you have the extra cash to burn, get the OP5 but if you're being frugal, go for OP3T. In my opinion, I kinda regret getting the OP5. Not because it's a bad phone but because I already had the OP3T and I don't see much difference in daily performance.

Good choice. Changed from OPO to OP5 and I'm in love with the OP5.
Sure, people coming from Op3 will say there's not a big difference. That's true because Hardware development isn't that fast so you will have a completely different phone when you change from Op3 to OP5.
But if you are coming from another brand I would recommend the OP5 for sure. It has a slightly higher price but it's more future prove. The dual cameras are great and they will get better with software updates. If you want breathtaking pictures get a DSLR instead of blaming a MOBILE CAMERA (like a few people do).
Pixel phone's camera is slightly better but the price isn't just "slightly" higher
I don't have any Jelly Effect, no WiFi issues or anything. Phone is running flawless and very, very fast.
If you won't get a phone with jelly effect you will love the OP5 for sure.

Still a good phone. Lucky for me, My unit has no jelly effect. I think because of that fact, those with Jelly effect is probably a hardware issue. All the displays are the same so It doesn't make sense that some experience it and some don't. See if you can test your unit 1st if you're buying it from a walk-in shop, if online, make use of the 15 days return policy and have it replaced if you do end up with the jelly unit

Its arriving tomorrow, jelly effect is the first thing i will look for, wonder they would replace it or not.
Replace is via amazon here in india, Oneplus doesnt do it officially here.
I came to OP5 from Nexus 4, I just love this phone!! The camera is great for a cell phone camera, I am still getting used to it to get better photos.
The jelly I think is not a big deal, not for me at least... I noticed it a little only after reading about it a lot
I bought it for the same reason as you, I don't upgrade often. And I want a phone that is supported by community on XDA, which I think this will surely be
SO if you don't upgrade often like me, you will love this phone...
P.S. just forget that you read about the jelly if you can since OP has officially said its normal, it will be difficult to get replacement for that issue via Amazon...

you would be surprised about the length some company go for every little market percentage.
they have the lawyer firms on retainer anyway, so why not put them to use, no matter how bizarre it is.

The best phone I had ever had in my life for the budget.If you can afford a more expensive phone I dont think this phone gonna impressed you but if u're like me coming from a mid range 400$- phone u're gonna love this and will realize how overrated other brands are.Coming from a previous Galaxy Alpha owner which cost 480$ on release date.
Even compared to other flagships 1+ 5 is still hanging right with them, that says a lot
Best phone ever, got rid of the Galaxy S8 after 2 days because i got sick of all the crap, lags and framedrops (games) and bloatware on it. Can nothing but recommend the OP5 despite all supposed/rumored issues :silly:
Happy with it too. No Jelly, no nothing.
and now all oneplus paid trolls are posting here
No issues here To all. INSANE battery life. 9+hours sot. I get 3-4%/hour battery drain combined sot/idle. FAST FAST FAST. Just everything good on my end.
I still am a tad apprehensive to buy an OP5 over G6 due to camera (video and wide angle lens) and that design/ display where as OP5 has great performance, better battery life, better software and will most probably have better long term life in terms of battery and performance.
anyone who used both can shed some light on my apprehensions?

Seems you are the troll here ha ha
Do yourself and those of us that don`t have issues a favour and just buy another phone and go troll there
I'll tell you I've had many brands of phones throughout the years, and none of them are as refined, smooth, efficient as this OP5....
Stick to Oxygen OS is my advise, I've always been a fan of AOSP and LOS based ROMS, but only with the OP5 I keep coming back to stock.
Enjoy the phone is my last advise. Use a custom kernel, you'll find your favorite, they save tons of battery, besides making the device EVEN smoother and efficient.
The thing is a beast.

I would very much appreciate if you could tell me where to collect the money you are talking about.
Shortly, Best phone i've ever owned: battery life (SOT), performance, shell temperature, ram, storage performance, stock feeling. And i've owned quite a lot.
This is the first android i've seen that doesn't lag when installing apps (!!!)
Display is really ok, and personally i am glad they keept the 1080p for efficiency and performance reasons (i've used 1080p also on s7).
What bothers me is the standby battery life (still better than my previous s6/s7). The wifi seems to consume more battery than other devices
I notice the jelly effect but that doesn't bother me.
What do you guys think the main changes will be from OP5 to the T variant? We all know about screen size, but battery, SoC clock speeds, or other changes are possible.
Personally I think it'll be slightly larger battery + the screen size upgrade.

What are they doing ? i dont understand it any more.They are making smartphone after smartphone just like others do.So whats the point of buying now a 5t and sticking with Oneplus?? because with in 6 months they are going to release 6! they are going way fasters with the number to achieve 10 or higher i assumme? time to move on to another brand.

Sounds if you are forced to always have the latest model? Let me tell you something: you don't! Just skip the non T versions...
I hope the camera will have OIS, I was disappointed that the 5 has no OIS.

It would be nice to get OIS, but I don't think we will see that in OP5T. I think we will see Electronic Image Stabilization.

Yeah i do! I am an hardware engineer so i do buy always latest hardware, own at the moment samsung s8, one plus all the versions, lg v30 and so on. Thats what i do.
I really don't mind , had the 3 then got the 3T. Have the 5 and now getting the 5t. They ain't forcing us to buy it and me personally don't mind as long as it's worth and it the screen on the same body to me it is. I have the 2 XL but thinking about extending it for the 5T. I liked that original 5 THAT much. .
I'm getting the feeling they might have not had enough time to do any major re-engineering aside from the screen in the 5T
Apparently as far as specs go everything is the same except the screen is now 18:9 with a 1440p and the camera 20MP rear is no longer a zoom it now has the same focal length as the primary. Still EIS no OIS
Battery is the same 3300mah
According to an early German camera review the camera is basically worse in low light compared to the OP5
I mean basically you buy this one because you really want the screen since it doesn't sound like the camera is that much improved and with the more pixels to drive the battery should be the tiniest bit worse than the OP5 I guess final pricing is what's left but everyone seems to agree they'll bump up the price.
I guess this year we did get a surprise in that the OP5 vs OP5T isn't a straight up upgrade depending on your priorities you may still like the OP5 more (front finger print, slightly longer runtime battery, zoom camera slightly better low light although still bad)
and the OP5T if you really like the more modern screen, prefer fingerprint on the back, don't care much about the slightly worse low light.
And really if that's actually what happened this year then OnePlus would've been better to just list the two phones side by side as alternative models and a lot less people would've been pissed off (yes I know they can do what they want but there were a lot of angry people on here)
If everything you care about is the camera, you should probably better invest the $500 in a good DSLR. (I did.)
I always buy a new smartphone when the old one has serious hardware issues. Mine has now.
Well they fixed the two main defects with op5 the crap camera on a supposedly camera phone and the jelly screen.
A major change IMO is that 5t has no notification LED, that may be important to some users.what do you think guys?

There's no notification LED on the 5t? Why would they omit that?

I hope so. I think ambient screen wake is rather wasteful. I get a ton of notifications though. Would much rather have just a tiny led fire that too. Exorbitant while driving at night, with my phone in a mount, facing me.
