Oh, that's Ah, one plus seven Pro box.

You're probably wondering why it's there, because I've already on Box seven pro fact.

I've been using it now for a while, so this video is going to serve as kind of like a combo video.

I'm gonna tell you about my thoughts and whatnot about this device, considering I've been using it now for a couple of weeks.

But first things first.

I got this other version.

So if you recall from the original video I own bought this guy right here.

The nebula blue.

They came out with another color.

This one is almond, I believe, is what they're calling it.

Get almond and I like almonds.

So, yes.

See, what is what is apple?

Call this color.

See that?

You could call that almond if you want.

You got a pearl essence to it.

Look at that.

Wow.

Depending on the angle with which you view it compared to the iPhone.

Yeah, I'd say it's pretty.

What is I Phone call.

What?

They could just go call that gold.

Same as the other one.

Obviously, triple cameras set up a bit more predominant on this unit because it's up against the lighter color.

You have to pop up camera.

You already saw it.

You already know.

So I guess you can pick between the two now that it's out there.

Nebula, Blue and all men let me know in the comments, Which is the more popular?

What about my feelings about the phone?

What about my feelings about the device, man, I've been using a lot of phones lately, so I've got a lot to reflect on, compared to pretty much all the stuff you'd be considering if you were in the price territory of this particular device, the one plus seven pro.

But I think that's kind of the comparison you're making now.

This one has gone upmarket, targeting those types of devices, and rightfully so.

To be honest, the most striking thing about this device and you may have heard this already from others is just the speed of it.

This is one of the rare cases in which the software on the device I don't want to touch it like I don't want to put a launcher.

I don't want to do anything to it.

I just leave it as is.

It's very close to stock Android in the experience of it.

But it feels even snap here because of their optimization.

And if you want to go a step further, you can actually turn off animations completely over on phone buffs Channel.

He did a 1 to 1 comparison of this device in the S 10 and he did his own speed testing, which is just like launching different applications closing windows, multitasking to see which one is quicker.

And it's surprising because your first thought on quickness is just like, Okay, it's got a snapdragon 8 55 So it's going to be the same.

Well, no, there's there's little optimization that affect your day to day usage and can actually speed up your ah behaviors and in the common things that you do frequently, like relaunching APs now the snappy nous.

It's also in this display.

The fact that you have this 90 hurts display, and this is the hardest thing to really put across to you in a video.

Because you're not.

You're not able to pick this up right in the recording, but it is just unbelievably snappy.

Now.

It's important to note that not all applications support the full refresh rate, and also you can toggle it down to save battery life if you choose to back down to 60 hearts.

But when you have these animations toggle down in conjunction with the 90 Hurts display, you essentially end up with probably the speediest, snappiest smartphone experience that's out there now.

A lot of that is perception to, for example, like unlocking the screen.

See how there's no animation there.

I turned that off myself because they had that little electrical function going on, but it makes it feel slower.

And I've compared this device the fingerprint unlock to other devices that use and in display fingerprint.

This still feels faster to me.

Some of it is perception.

Some of it is reality Now.

The other thing about this display thing, the other story of this phone is, of course, the pop up camera.

Or, for me, the lack of any camp with the lack of any cut because I don't really use front facing camera frequently.

So all this means for me is full display all the time.

So if I pop open a video, for example, so this just means like zero distraction, all display no notch no hole punch, just the video that you're trying to watch and the trade off is what, a motorized camera where I never even used the motor because I just don't use the front facing camera that much.

I understand the argument against it.

Moving parts.

I made that argument myself because I'm always trying to pitch both sides of the story.

Now, of course, one plus, they come out, they say, Hey, man, this, uh, this camera unit can withstand all kinds of forces.

You can lift up a cinder block and all the rest of it so dare claim is that is completely fine.

Regardless, battery life has been really good on this device.

It's 1,004,000 powers.

Of course.

It charges really quickly, though that does bring me to one of my criticisms.

One thing I do, mrs the lack of wireless charging.

I think one plus is at a price premium.

Now where it's like you kind of have to throw it in just cause the other manufacturers have it.

It would just be more convenient.

And it's one thing that I'm missing.

So it's a criticism of mine.

For me to camera is it's not.

It's not like mind blowing, but it's There's been a consolidation of camera quality recently.

I would say a lot of these things sharing sensors, in fact, so I'll be sitting here in this studio stopping photos and analyzing pictures.

But ultimately, a lot of those end up on the same back end with the same sensor.

So that's a picture of the sensor right there.

I am x 586 and it's on a surprising number of devices.

I still haven't found a device that, for me is as pleasing immediately out of the camera as frequently as the pixel Siri's.

But this never left me.

Uh, it never left me feeling like I was really, truly missing out on anything, especially outdoors, especially in well lit environment.

I have mentioned in previous videos that you can sometimes enhance the camera performance simply by installing Google's camera software, which they're inevitably will be.

A port for that, said one plus, his own software updates have improved the performance of the camera in the stock camera app that comes via the device.

So yet the camera it's fine.

I would say it's in the same territories in the same neighborhood as the Samsung stuff.

They're small attributes and differences you may be able to notice, but for me, for my money, it's a wash.

So here's the thing.

Okay, s 10.

You picked the S 10.

I think there's a couple things that you're getting.

You're getting the brand name you're getting Samsung getting a really vibrant, rich display.

You're getting wireless charging.

Obviously you're getting a front facing camera that doesn't require a motor, which could be advantageous to you, but what you're getting into one plus for a little bit less money, at least based on the retail cost of the S 10 you're getting this no notch experience in conjunction with 90 hurts in conjunction with the software optimization that make this the fastest smartphone experience Probably you can have right now for me, that's a trade worth making for me.

This is the device I wanna have in my pocket right now.

Is probably gonna be there up into the point.

There's another pixel to choose from because I'm gonna want to experiment with that camera particularly what Google is doing with their camera software right now.

The absence of the notch, the lack of distraction.

The true full screen display, the old lead 90 hurts, and the software is a reason why this would be my pick.

It's no longer in the value category, which I think a lot of people have a right to be upset with.

That was kind of in the D.

A.

Of one plus was like, What can we get for around 500 bucks?

That was the idea, and they've gone upmarket with each generation of phone.

I think that those sort of marginal improvements on this one arm or significant to me than whatever marginal improvements exist on the Samsung.

There it is.

One plus seven Pro nebula, Blue Almond.

I'm gonna be on the smartphone for a little while.
