7 Reasons to Wait for the OnePlus 7T & 4 Reasons Not to
Don't Wait For Wireless Charging | ||||||||||||
 | ||||||||||||
Don't wait for the OnePlus 7T if you're waiting for the company to finally offer wireless charging. Or a headphone jack for that matter. With the 7 Pro they finally killed the 3.5mm headphone jack and it's not coming back. Furthermore, OnePlus reaffirmed their position that they'll never offer wireless charging if it's not very fast. And while we're sure they're working on a super-fast type of wireless charging the technology isn't there yet. When your OnePlus 7 Pro can go from 0-70% in around 25 minutes with a cable and Dash charger, but takes over an hour using wireless charging, that's not a seamless experience they want to offer. The OnePlus 7T could finally be the device (and now is the time, IMO) that they offer wireless charging, but don't bank on it. | ||||||||||||

No one even knows if there will be a 7T. This is all very loose speculation.

Yes. but considering we got a 5T and a 6T, it’s a little more than “loose” speculation.

ONE PLUS 7 IS STILL WORTH PAYING FOR THAN ALL AVAILABLE FLAGSHIPS AND EVEN THE ONES RELEASED BEFORE THE END OF 2019. CONSIDERING WHAT YOU GET FOR THE PRICE

If they kill the pup up camera n the screen size they are killing everything that make this phone stands out. Water proof not so much. The 5G thing n 12 Ram they been playing us about that in a way.For US they aren’t available or u must get it directly from them, that’s kind turn off. But am still happy with my 7 pro if they asure 5G is a plus n the Android 10 OS that’s all I need

Thanks for the comment Josue. I agree. The 7 Pro will get Android 10 Q before December, and I don’t think 5G will be relevant until this time next year. Your 7 Pro is still a great phone.
And while I agree that making the screen smaller isn’t ideal, but a lot of people complained the phone was too big and heavy. Which is why I think we’ll actually get TWO 7T phones. Plus, as neat as the popup camera is, that’s a potential fail point and a moving part they’ll want to remove ASAP.
I don’t know if under-display camera tech is ready yet from Oppo and for OnePlus, but if they manage to put the front camera under the screen in 2019 that would be a big deal. It’s doubtful though.

It should be with snapdragon855 plus with 12 g ram and more improved camera may be 64 pixel.

1. Why does anyone care about IP ratings??? OnePlus makes their devices water resistant to sufficiently withstand being accidentally dropped in water. Unless you take your phone deep sea diving, the only thing that an IP rating will do to a OnePlus device is drive the price up unnecessarily!
2. Please explain the logic behind the alleged demand for wireless charging, when it’s so damned slow? Especially in comparison to OnePlus’ fast charging!?!? Why would you want to pay MORE for a device that charges slower? Who cares if it doesn’t have wireless charging? I want FAST charging, because I can’t afford the luxury of standing around with my thumbs up my ass. I’m an IT professional; and I need my device ready when a situation arises. I can’t afford to leave it on a wireless charger for an hour, just to get enough battery juice to allow me to hotspot off my phone… and establish a VPN connection… while I troubleshoot and resolve a problem (which may very well require downloading and uploading large files).
3. News Flash: not everyone cares about the front camera, because not everyone takes selfies. More than half the phones out there are never used to take selfies! The current pop-up camera solution on the OnePlus 7 series phone is more than sufficient! Unless OnePlus can implement something that offers better photographic results AND is more cost effective, let them leave the pop-up camera in.
Stop whining for better this, or more that… which only makes the device more expensive and less attractive! I want VALUE for my money! If I didn’t, I’d buy an iPhone.

As far as the rumors are concerned, will there be any upgrade in the camera like 64mp ??
Also does the pop up camera work well with use??
