    remove front camera cut-outs, make the front of the phone symmetrical just like rog and xperia 1 II... if you had done this since your launch of your first phone with ufs 3.1, i would have gotten it...

            AnonD-731363, 15 Jul 2020Man other brands are made in china too such as apple. Sam... moreYou id*ot does not completely understand what I meant in this context.

            Most people would say quality equals to specs. Wrong! 🙉

            Look at nubia's half-baked software, then the aftersales and service support, which are of low quality. Then the fan. Can it break and get dirty? Or OLED panel can suffer from discoloration issues? Ghosting?

            I will give you an example I have repeatedly used in the past. Take the Realme XT owned by Rokshan Singh from India, which exploded 24 hours prior to purchase (when brand new). Yeah it costs less than $200 these days, has SD712 chipset (still fast enough nowadays), VOOC charging, and more.

            That's just an isolated case, but multiple realme units have already mould growth (plastic back models) and software issues. Few units (even a new realme 6) had screen retention (burn-in equivalent) issue just like the famous Redmi Note 8.

            Of course readers here in this website would assume that quality equals to specs. And people are looking the highest price to performance ratio while completely forgetting any underlying issues they might have.

                Failure rate of these devices are low.

                Don't judge device quality based on specs.

                I have already informed that Samsung OLED panels have discoloration issue. It applies to your OnePlus. XDA has mentioned this.

                  ThePong, 15 Jul 2020Cheap price and great specs=good luck with quality issues.High price, High quality = Huawei, Samsung, Sony, LG.
                  High price, Low quality = Apple, (Vivo, Oppo in the past)
                  Low price, High quality = Xiaomi, OnePlus, Realme, Asus, Honor.
                  Low price, Low quality = Other cheap brands.

                    First of all, a lot of LTE and n (5G) bands are missing. Second, bad software. Overall, not a good device despite specs and low price.

                          Great device with PLA Spyware that must have subsidized the smartphone price like all the other brands. Pay once and get a ROG.

                                      The only thing stopping me from getting Redmagic is the absence of custom ROMs. Can't afford changing phones in 2 years. 😭
