So , today , 3 days after posting ad on OLX India , I sold my OnePlus 5 (6gb model). I used the mobile for 1.5 years and had good experience with the device.
I loved batter life and smoothness of Oxygen os and dev support on XDA but could not stand the bulkiness and design of device when compared to current day designs. I had used Sony Xperia Z3 before and still think it was way better device than OnePlus 5 especially interms of design and usage and even as a complete package (Stereo speakers, multimedia apps, Water proofing etc..) . Some how I could not like what Oneplus offers. Oxygen OS is great but it is just bland and very minimalist. Last few weeks, I was using CRDroid rom and had fun. But I feel we get what we pay for and with OnePlus we get basic but high end feature at a reasonable price
My device has paint quality issues as spots of paint got removed with Spigen rugged armour case
I am a huge Sony fan and had used their live with Walkman, Xperia SP & Xperia Z3 before but sadly they are not selling very few devices and no latest flagship in India at all. I m left with Samsung and is planning to buy Samsung Galaxy S10. Suggest any other android if you can. I d always want complete package in a mobile and Samsung is only android manufacturer that provide great quality android mobiles now (yeah , I like customizing my phone a lot , and themes too
).
Thanks XDA developers for proving wonderful roms and community for helping me out with some issues I had in past. It was fun (frustration sometimes) while it lasted with OnePlus 5. I am attaching my last home screen setup and will have that as a memory
