   Been using OnePlus 11 for about a week now and at this price range there’s no phone right now which can be considered as an overall package.

   Pros –
   Extraordinary battery life and even better 100W charging. You’ll always appreciate how this makes your life easier when you know you can get your phone charged to 50% in 10 minutes.
   I don’t think I need to review the SoC which is 8gen2. It’s not about how super powerful it is but how good it works in terms of efficiency and heating. Though it is start of summer only, I haven’t felt gte phone heating up even once. It’s like these two problems which ruined last two years Android scene are non existent this time.
   Display is quite capable with Dolby vision and Dolby Atmos tech, the viewing experience is as immersive as it gets at this price or may be higher.
   Haptics are awesome, you don’t see (feel) haptics as good as this except iphones or pixels.
   Color OS inspired Oxygen OS is quite good and if we ignore some bugs highlighted by MKBHD. I moved from OnePlus 6 which was maybe pinnacle of OnePlus and Oxygen OS to this and I feel like it’s an upgrade.

   4 years of OS updates and 5 years of security updates. Their updates are not as frequent and useful as Google but this adds to phone’s overall life. You can at least get it repaired and have parts replaced in this window. I couldn’t get power button replaced on my old OP6 because it was out of support.

   Camera is decent. It is actually competing with Samsung and iPhones and beating them in low light shots. This is change as OnePlus cameras used to be B+ which is now A- with other flagships at A+ but they also don’t come this cheap except pixel. One disappointment is front facing camera. DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE IF YOU’RE A SELFIE LOVER and don’t like Vivo and Oppo approach of making your skin look smooth and brighter. Front video is also called at 1080p which is a shame. Should have been 4k30 at least.

   Cons – as said earlier, there are some annoying bugs/features in UI which can be easily fixed through a small update.

   Display is not brighter indoor as iphones and Samsung ultras but you won’t feel if you haven’t seen those.

   One very apparent disadvantage vis a vis S23 is lack of Wireless charging and IP rating. These are compromises which I think ok to not have if we are getting quad HD display at this price. Although I would have preferred reverse wireless charging so I could charge my earbuds on the go.

   And last, the most beautiful thing about his phone is it comes with charger and screen guard and a phone case in the box. Appreciate this when trillion dollar companies like Google and Apple don’t provide this despite charging more than 1 lakh.

   I hope you find this helpful. I was criticizing OnePlus and Qualcomm heavily for past two years on all platforms but this is the year they have turned it around.
