This time without its protective shell.

Anonymous, 02 Oct 2024buy the x7 thenNot available in my country, atleast not without dodgy 3rd party stores and import fees/waiting periods. Closest I can get is a OP12, which is what I own. That is thankfully still curved on the sides.

    Darth Caesium, 02 Oct 2024Same here. It's such a damn shame that companies think... moreYep, everyone wants their phone to look like an iPhone now, they don't ever think that their customers might like the phones they already make, THAT'S WHY WE'RE BUYING THEM. Hope these phones sell poorly and they change it back.

      Darth Caesium, 02 Oct 2024Same here. It's such a damn shame that companies think... morethis, curved screens are awful and nothing can change my mind but micro curved screen like on the xiaomi 14 or even something like on the realme gt master edition and many more, flat sides are just worse to hold and swipe

        I have heard conflicting reports that the OnePlus 13 will not be like this X8 form factor although I still hope it will be so that they can finally retire the curved edges. I personally think the curved edges is a gimmick.

          Camera bump looks bad. Otherwise it looks same as other phones.

                  Beautiful Phone

It's such a damn shame that companies think that removing curved screens has to also mean removing curved sides, because they not only look much more aesthetically pleasing and have a premium look to them, but they're also ergonomically much better too, providing a better and more comfortable grip.

                      If they'd had a dual tone finish and even a slightly curved aesthetic (keeping the flat display of course), it would look much more interesting aesthetically. Right now, it looks inoffensive without standing out in any particular way, and the last thing you want as an OEM (or should do, anyway) is to make your phones look generic and forgettable. You want your phones to do the marketing for you when other people see them.

                          So basically they just took the design from the Find N3 and changed it up slightly.

                          Right.

                            Looks so boring and cheap, last year's x7 dual tone finish looked a lot better imo

                              Small camera bump, nice.
