My experience:
Bought a used OnePlus 7 Pro in late January 2021. It came with Oxygen OS 11 Beta, and had some severe bugs:
* Display issue on lock screen would cause mismatch between PIN/Pattern display and touch input making it very difficult to unlock
* Black screen requiring button combination to force reboot
Both happened several times a day.
At the time, I rolled back (easily) to Oxygen OS 10.3.8. When 11 was officially released, I ignored it for two updates. Finally, 11.0.0.2 came out and I caved. Guess what?
Same. Two. Bugs. Constantly. Also had a really bad issue during the install process that caused the screen to flicker rapidly the entire time.
Since this wasn't a beta, it was not trivial getting back to 10.3.8. Eventually I found the correct imaging tools and images and was able to get back to 10.3.8, which doesn't have any apparent or show stopping bugs.
- ferongr 5y agoI'm using the EU version of the OnePlus 7 Pro on 11.0.1.1 and I don't have such issues. I gave my 2 year old device a refresh at the official service center with a new battery and it's going strong still.
- mfkp 5y agoLikewise, I have the US version OnePlus 7 Pro and I have never seen these issues. I've been using this phone for 2+ years and like you mentioned, the battery could use a refresh, but it still lasts long enough to not be too annoying. I tried switching to a Pixel 4a 5G but I was not impressed and switched back to the OnePlus. That being said, I'm not sure if I'd pay the premium prices of their new flagship models at this point.
- neogodless 5y agoThere's no doubt that if everyone had the issues I did, OnePlus would fix it or there'd be a louder outrage! But the point being that there's clearly a change (for the worse) in their drivers that affects some handsets (examples below of various reports), despite working fine in earlier versions. https://old.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/ldg7gn/op7pro_open_beta_2_lock_screen_bug/ https://old.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/ldg7gn/op7pro_open... https://old.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/mvddho/android_11_on_oneplus_7_pro_is_completely/ https://old.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/mvddho/android_11_... https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/lock-screen-scaling-is-wrong.1383081/ https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/lock-screen-scaling-is-wr...
