I am having massive issues with Bluetooth. My range is literally only 18 inches and my phone drops the connection to whatever device I am on

    Also, after Android 11 update, WiFi Smart switching is completely gone (despite being activated), I have to manually switch WIFI spots, otherwise it will stay on the low signal network and -stupidly- will try to assist it with the 4G data (facepalm!).

      does anybody know if the update will come to the 6t? it kills me with the delay

        This phone is a beast. Been 2 years using it today.
        Problem is, I'm stucked with 2 boring default font if I don't want to root my phone.
        Not happy with it and changing to another brand.

            Shellyman Infinity, 30 Oct 2021Cause we're not, this shows how incompetent OnePlus is... moreSamsung phones will remain worse than OnePlus, no matter how many times you update the software on them.

              Shadocx, 30 Oct 2021I'm getting bimonthly updates on my OnePlus 7 since I&... moreBut OnePlus used to provide better software support than Samsung despite being a smaller company. All that changed since late 2019 when I first got my OnePlus 7 Pro. OTA updates are so rare for me to the point I have to download the Oxygen OS updater to stay up to date. Again, there's no excuse, Samsung has twice of more phones models than OnePlus has. I'm sure that'll change when they merge into Color OS in 2022.

                Shellyman Infinity, 30 Oct 2021Cause we're not, this shows how incompetent OnePlus is... moreI'm getting bimonthly updates on my OnePlus 7 since I've bought it in 2019, I'm surprised the more expensive model doesn't.
                So you think Samsung and OnePlus have the same quantity of employees ? OnePlus made their phones in 2014 in case you didn't know, it's not an experienced company like Samsung.

                  nanagdad, 30 Oct 2021True they now have 1+ RT to sell to old 1+ 7 series owners ... moreHow funny, my OnePlus 7 doesn't have any bugs, so obviously I'm fine with the software, if I buy the 9RT it's because a 60Hz display, IMX 586, SD 855, 20W charging are outdated in 2021...

Half of the time, my OP 7 Pro goes more than 2 months without an update. No excuses, Samsung has twice more phones as OnePlus, and they stay to up to date with their phones. On top of that, still experiencing bugs. This is my first and last OP product.

                          OMG! Oneplus became such a bad company. After all this time since the Op 7 Series came out still have problems... I own a Op 9 and it has so many problems, I came from Oppo and now I regret this.

                              Anonymous, 30 Oct 2021Because this is android that we are talking about. This is ... moreYour comment makes zero sense. I've owned the Huawei Mate 9 for nearly four years & it never lagged on me. Battery drained a tad quicker after the last update, but never had any lag issues. 22.5W fast charging was great for me (something iPhones never reached until quite recently). The sole reason I changed this 2016-model phone to a new one was due to the measly 64GB internal storage (SD cards never were as speedy as the internal storage for running files & apps). Other than that, I'd say it's still more capable than the current iPhones in terms of OS flexibility.

                                BJRG, 30 Oct 2021OnePlus 6 has this bug too.It's deliberate they want to force you to buy 1+ RT now, but would you buy it? 😀

                                  Bigmeme, 30 Oct 2021Why will people buy newer oneplus phones if their op7 is wo... moreTrue they now have 1+ RT to sell to old 1+ 7 series owners 😀 But after such a bad software experience would you return 👎

                                    Fix one big introduce another bug on purpose sh#t planned obsolescence. I bet this screen delay bug wasn't there when the phone was first purchased. This is their plan to force customers to buy their new phones pathetic indeed. Never buying a OnePlus phone #NeverAgain1+

                                        Any Android phone I have used has lag concerning calls , use one as a toy now and an iPhone for work as intended.
