So, I just wanted to name a few issues I've been having with my OP7T

1. wide angle camera doesnt focus in 90% of cases. manual tap to work sometimes helps but all in all the wide angle is almost unusable. tried factory reset, reverting back to stable OS build.. messing up with different camera app options..nothing helps

2. alarm clock volume keeps turning itself off.. I've tested it many times, the alarm simply doesnt ring.. I checked the volume just to see that the slider has gone all the way down.. Reseting the app fixes it for some time but than it goes back to being unusable

3. speakers are too loud even if you use them at 30% of max volume.. all above that makes the sound unbearable to listen

4. if I want to use the loudspeaker during a call, the person on the other side of the line immediately says that the sound quality has drastically changed/became worse

I do like the phone. I had Galaxy S10+ before this one and there is no way I would go back to that.. I wish these things would get sorted out. After all, a simple OS update can make the phone much better..

Thanks for taking some time to go through my blabbering :)

I'm on Open Beta 8 (just recently updated to OB9)

1. Camera can't focus on low light at all. I think this is because 7T lacks laser autofocus which the pro version has.
With good lighting though, focus is as fast as other flagships.

2. Alarm works fine every time for me.

3. Try turning off Dolby Atmos. (CLICK HERE for the proper app and instructions)

4. People on the other end of the line can hear me clearly both on loudspeaker mode and normal phone.

I sold the phone yesterday.. Could not decide if I should buy the 8T or the S20+.. in the end I went with Samsung.. so far no regrets.. :good:
