I've had various iPhones and Androids over the years, most recently iPhone 6s+, 7+ and XR. I just yesterday bought a Oneplus 6T and am very happy with it. I've had the Xr for a few months now and it's been my least favorite iPhone. For me, it's a little heavy compared to even the older pluses. And the display isn't all that much chop for a premium phone. I'm glad it's a work phone, because I don't think I would ever have forked out over $1200 AUD for it. As much as I appreciate the privacy angle of the Apple ecosystem, it turns out that I've really missed just being able to install what I want on my phone. It's been liberating being able to customize what I want to not what Apple allows you to. Also, with Oneplus phones, you really do get 'flagship' quality phones without having to fork out the money.


To be fair, if you've only had the phone for a single day it's a little too early to tell how well it's going to pay off :)


I was a happy owner of the OP2, and currently the OP6. I doubt my next phone will be a OnePlus, though. While the OnePlus are great phones, the prices have risen to flagship levels over the years. The new OP 7 Pro starts at $669, a far cry from the $299 of the original OP One.
