                it has plastic frame instead of aluminum which is more stronger and durable. Also this device use Mediatek chip set instead of Famouse Qualcomm.

                              Excellent device, but firmware... 5G service is disabled in current Global OxygenOS 11. So actually it's not 5G phone out of the box.

                                I’ve had this phone since the beginning of December, bought directly from OnePlus France and there are some major disappointments. First up, I should explain that unlike most people these days, I don’t use a phone as my primary source for consuming media. I do illustration and design work, and I work from home, so I’m lucky that I rarely have to commute. So for me, I use a phone to listen to podcasts or music while working, cooking (I’m at home, so cook every evening for my wife), or using the rowing machine or bike rollers. I do the occasional sketch on the phone, take photographs, but don’t edit movies or anything heavy - I have a Mac and an iPad for that. (Why don’t I have an iPhone? I hate the b******t around them, and have too many Android apps that I prefer to the Apple equivalent.)

                                These are the problems I’ve found since I’ve had the phone.

                                • Bluetooth: it’s terrible. Making a phone without a headphone jack, then having a terrible Bluetooth connection is laughable. I have a set of decent Bluetooth headphones which work flawlessly with my Mac, iPad and old Huawei phone. My new phone has yet to even find them, never mind connect to them.

                                • The in-ear earphones: It was supposed to come with Bluetooth in-ear buds (French law says you have to supply headphones with a smartphone). Instead of the advertised Bluetooth buds, it came with in-ear buds that connect through the charging port - possibly a bonus, given the Bluetooth nonsense. Except they’re cheap and horrible. They’re like something you’d find for 5€ in a discount supermarket. When you have them in your ears, you can hear the noise of the cable brushing against your clothes amplified in your ear, like someone rubbing their hand over a live microphone.

                                • The fingerprint reader: Also a massive pain. I’ve followed all the advice and options to try to get this to work quickly and smoothly - messing with the always-on display, setting tap to wake, shake or move to wake - and it fails maybe 70% of the time. I have to pick up the phone, try to get the fingerprint reader to actually appear on-screen by tapping or shaking it; if it doesn’t work, hit the power button again to put it to sleep; wake it again with the power button and then, hopefully, the reader will appear onscreen and will allow me to access the phone.

                                • The in-screen reader itself is also way less ergonomic to use than a reader on the back of the phone, and is to me a stupid idea - copying the latest trend, but done badly. You end up needing two hands to use the reader and get the phone to wake, because if your thumb is even slightly out of alignment, it fails to recognise your print. I’ve deleted my prints and re-set them twice, trying with multiple fingers and thumbs, and the problem remains. Whereas my five year old Huawei, with the reader on the back - which is far more ergonomic because you naturally wrap your fingers round the phone when you pick it up - still works in a split second, every time.

                                In short:
                                The very good: the lack of bloatware and the smooth OS. The camera: I like the camera a lot.
                                The good: the design, the look, the sound from the stereo speakers.
                                The bad: see above.

                                For a 400€ phone - yeah, I know, “flagship” phones cost 2-3 times that, but I don’t care about owning a phone as some kind of status symbol - I’d hoped for a lot better.

                                At the moment, it means I still use my almost five year old Huawei to listen to podcasts via Bluetooth while I’m working or cooking in the evening. Which to me is a huge disappointment.
