There also seems to better band support that results in faster internet by means of carrier aggregation, but im not sure of it.

Though i dont these are worth the premium over the k20 pro, especailly since most people would prefer a notchless less screen over all the other features.

        Hookar, 03 Jun 2019True, the Haptic engine makes or breaks the phone and its a... moreThe 6/6T's haptic motor was trash, and many reviewers complained about that. The 7's is better, but still not on par with even the S10, and very far from the 7 pro. I personally upgraded from OP6 and the vibration motor on that one was really, really bad. The 7 pro is like pixel 3, and feels nice. iPhone's is still better, but iPhone uses a very big motor on expense of battery capacity.

        Check out android police's review. I myself have asked this question to the reviewer in the comments section.

        I used both of these phones and felt like 90Hz 1440p display, better haptics, faster charging, better design, more cameras and no notch was enough of an upgrade to justify the extra 15/16k (depending on 256/128GB) was worth it. Obviously the 7 is still better value for money, but I could afford the pro easily and hence got it.

          Boldy, 01 Jun 2019The 7 pro also has better haptic engine, which was the sole... moreTrue, the Haptic engine makes or breaks the phone and its also true that its not worth 16k especially when OP themselves say that they have put a better motor in the 7 compared to the 6T and I have not seen anyone complain about the motor on the 6T so I still dont think its worth 16k. The best haptic engine is on the iPhone and the second best in probably the 7Pro.

            Flow, 01 Jun 20197 should've come with a pop up camera to be worth a buy. Fl... moreIts fine man! I really doesn't bother that much if at all. And tbh its better to not have a moving part in your phone. Just wait around for under display camera which is already being showed off by OPPO and Xiaomi so it will probably be on the next major OP phone.

The only thing op7 has over k20 pro are the stereo speakers. K20 pro meanwhile has the pop up with no notch, better cameras and a headphone jack. Oxygen ui might be better to you but that alone doesn't make the 7 a better phone.

UFS 3.0, stereo speakers, better screen, alert slider are not present in K20 Pro but it has a headphone jack & for a much lower price. For me K20 Pro wins in terms of value.

                                  Sorry Oneplus but the K20 Pro & the Zenfone 6 are racing to take your throne as the flagship killer. I'd go for the K20 Pro for the amoled screen & optical fps. 4000mah battery of K20 Pro is enough to last all day. I don't like the flip camera of Zenfone 6 & its screen looks dull.

                                    What an fugly camera hump, djeez!
                                    Is it realy necessary to make it that big?

                                      People have problems with how much weaker regular 7 is compared to 7 Pro.
                                      I think problem is with the name. 7 is clearly a different phone and I'd rather see OnePlus create a new line and have one for high end and one for midrange ones. Otherwise there will always be confusion and hate...
                                      I'd rather see 7e/s/r (any name would be cool actually) and then regular 7 instead of making pro one.

                                        Holy knuckles, look at the size of that thing? When did we learn to find such giantic phablets acceptable?
