I'm an outlier still using OnePlus One? I don't get the point of replacing phone every year or two.
- sstephant 6y agoI was a happy owner of the 1+ 2, 1+ 4. I'm now using the 1+ 6 and I'm glad to hear there's an upcoming Linux support. The thing is, my first two phones were stolen, so sometimes you don't really have a choice.
- pantalaimon 6y agoI used mine until a year ago when I got a new phone through work. It still runs the latest Android thanks to LineageOS and still was fast enough for the web (thanks to AdAway).
- uranium 6y agoI'm about to replace my OnePlus 5T. Last year it started garbling the incoming audio from outgoing phone calls, about 50% of the time. This week it garbled an incoming phone call, so I really can't put off upgrading any longer. I don't make a lot of voice calls, and from home I can use my land line, but if I can't receive calls, it's not a phone. I've really liked the phone apart from that, but it's a pretty big "apart from that", so I'm iffy on going OnePlus again. Support talked me through making a bug report, and then...nothing. Anybody else have a similar experience?
- wazoox 6y agoMy wife inherited my Oneplus One and uses it (running LineageOS); I'm still using my OnePlus 5T and don't plan to change it ever (unless the audio jack makes a comeback). Note that the One without any Google spyware still lasts 3 days no problem. I'll probably switch my 5T to Lineage without any Google stuff sooner or later.
- villgax 6y agoSecurity & App performance for starters, YMMV.
- Abishek_Muthian 6y agoSshh; don't let the YouTube smartphone reviewers hear you, they'll be offended. Honestly, the only YouTuber I know with millions of subscribers who doesn't behave like everyone buys a new smartphone every other day is Zack from JerryRigEverything he literally showed a video from 2014(Note 4)as Galaxy S21's video to make that point[1] in his recent video.

- BoumTAC 6y agoReally impressive, the footage is amazing. Incredible it's coming from a 6 years old phone !
- zokier 6y agoOne hasn't received security updates from OnePlus for over 2.5 years.
- Aerroon 6y agoOnly a bit. I still use my OnePlus One daily. I find it odd as well how quickly people replace their phones.
- Rhedox 6y agoReplaced my 3T last year. The port was completely worn out and probably close to completely failing and the battery was noticably degraded after 4 years of heavy use. On top of that the alert slider started acting up on it's own. Ofc you could try to replace those parts but I decided it's not worth it. It's pretty difficult to find a replacement battery that both doesn't explode and actually has as much capacity as advertised.
