Reply to comment by Nyaxxy in OnePlus and Oppo set to leave parts of Europe, report says by Captain_Smartass_

The 7 was the last really good OnePlus phone and then it all went down hill from there.

The old CEO (who was there during the glory days) is the one running the new Nothing brand which might a good replacement if they can go back to the old OnePlus style/reliability.

Literally just switched from the 7 to the pixel yesterday, I foolishly downloaded the android 12 update around Nye and the phone just went from one problem to another with the last straw being Bluetooth triggering it to drop 70% of battery in a minute and then sitting at 1% for 6 hours. Up to that update the phone was great.

OnePlus had the best software in the game and they threw it away without a second thought.

I am sorry to hear that. I switched from the 6t to pixel 7 pro and my experience for the most part has been excellent, but I do hear the older pixels had a lot of issues.

Yeh I had the 2 then 7 and thought had found a brand to trust for years but guess not. I got the pixel 7 pro as well, mainly for the camera as doing a lot of traveling in the next year and felt was worth it for the handy camera so it's a good thing in the long run

I've been avoiding the 12 update for months. Glad to hear I'm not just being a grumpy old man about it.

My OnePlus 7 Pro doesn't have any issues with Android 12.

Maybe you need to do a factory reset. It is a pain in the ass but hopefully it will solve your issues.

Yeah my pixel had all sorts of issues with Android 12, switched to Samsung after and it's much more stable overall.

I meant the OnePlus had the issues but maybe it's just android 12 being universally shit

Good to know, thanks. I looked at new phones and have been really put off by the behemoth cameras on the back hopefully something releases in future that is more low key lol
