Alright, so as those of you who read my previous blog know, I decided to make my first android phone the OnePlus 6T. now that its here,
I figured I'd write this little review in case anyone else is thinking of getting one as well.
battery life/charge time
its been about 8 hours now, and I've only just now had to plug it in. I should also mention that it came at 50% battery to begin with.
As for charge time, you can expect ridiculously fast charge as long as you use the brick they give you in the box.
Sound Quality
I had heard people were unhappy with the speaker quality on the 6T. so how bad is it exactly? From what I can tell, not at all.
Its a huge improvement over my previous phone (iPhone SE). Its In fact, the only problem I have is that it one speaker on the bottom,
so no stereo sound (which really isn't all that important on a phone anyway).
Screen Quality
not much to say about it. its 1080p, and its got a weird aspect ratio. obviously not the best, but its not bad either.
security features
it has both face ID and a fingerprint scanner under the screen. I love the finger print scanner, but as for the face ID? don't use it.
its pretty terrible, and you can trick it with a piece of paper.
OS
the os shipped with the 6T is fantastic. I especially love the apple-like gestures (being someone who had previously only used Iphones).
gaming mode is also pretty handy, it makes notifications much less intrusive, as well as a few other things.
parallel apps. have way too many Instagram accounts? get some help. until then, you can use the parallel apps feature to switch from account to account without having to log out.
you can also lock each and every app behind a password. perfect for when you need to lock a recovering insta-junkie out of their 25 different accounts so they can sober up in time for thanksgiving.
I think thats about it... Did I miss anything? let me know!
