Awesome take on this!

That lag is where I still disagree. I want to know where one UI lags. Opening apps? Loading apps? Where exactly?

Make una educate us abeg. Cos if you see lag on Infinix and Tecno then you'll understand this is lag. How it happens on One UI is what Im dying to know.

I havent played with a Samsung since after S1 & Note 4 which my wife used for almost 4yrs. But from what i hear the lags and frame drops are noticeable when scrolling through apps, and animations in the UI. All these are minute, ignorable complaints that can be overlooked whenever they occur but when you pay a premium to own a premium device insignificant issues become big issues and tend to annoy.

With phones like Techno & Infinix, you get what you pay for. Lagging, frame drops and hanging are their 3 stooges.

Performance on the oneplus 6 and s9 is about thesame due to same soc, except the exynos version. Oneplus may be slightly snappier due to its close to vanilla android os unlike the bloated sometimes laggy UI on Samsung. But it all boils down to user experience and preference.

I am biased... Go for the Corolla.

Oya make una come beat me

Go to www.xda-developers.com, search for your phones forum, you will see tutorials.

I am in Abuja, i would have helped you for free. I have owned and rooted more phones that i can remember. Been a member on xda-developers since 2012. Prior to that i have been hacking blackberry os & symbian os since early 2000s.

Batteries have actually gotten smarter with lithium ion batteries but there are still some safe practices to prolong the battery health.

Lithium ion batteries are at their best in the middle, never too high nor too low. So its best to;

1. Charge a battery to 80%. Pushing in the last
charge between 80-100% causes the battery to
age faster.
2. Never allow it to die out completely.
3. Some phone manufacturers have battery
management systems (smart charging) in their
os to regulate how long a battery is charged,
this is to prolong battery health.
4. Some experts say once in a month allowing
your phone to die out completely, then charge
to hundred percent helps re-calibrate the
system, like restarting your PC clears the cached
memory.
5. Always using your fast charger(33watts,
64watts) degrades battery faster. Use them on
the go, not over night. Get a normal slow
charger for long charges because fast chargers
heat up the batteries significantly, and heat
degrades battery life fast.
6. Just like in dieting, its better to eat many small
meals than one large meal, in battery care its
also good to go on multiple charges of 10- 90%,
20-80% than 0- 100%.
7. Every battery has a charging cycle of between
300-500cycles. Every time you charge from 0-
100, that is one charging cycle recorded. At the
end of your cycle the battery stops to hold
charge. When a battery reaches 100% it stops
charging even when it shows the charging sign,
it discharges to a percentage determined by the
manufacturer then its starts charging up to 100
again. It doesnt show it discharging while
plugged in, but the battery is busy charging and
discharging. Minus the continuous charge and
discharge, the process heats up the battery
which over time damages it. Imagine leaving a
battery charging overnight from 10pm to 7am,
by 11pm it must have fully charged from 11pm to o7 will be discharging and charging using up precious charging cycles. A battery that should
end up lasting 3yrs will suddenly run oout in one year.

Sticking to one brand gets boring. I also dont believe in limiting myself technologically when there is alot to experience and learn. Xiaomi was a good experience for me, and so was Xperia, HTC, Blackberry & the numerous Nokia phones before them. I started hacking phones from symbian days then blackberry os before my first Android phone; Samsung galaxy S1. The experience then was bliss.

Windows phone & Iphones are just too boring for my liking, i almost went for an iphone 11 before getting the oneplus. Thank God i reasoned some senses back into my head, while iphone is a great device there is still ALOT an android can do that iphones cant. Especially when you are rooted and a SuperUser.

You dont know jack about cars. No be insult, no vex.

Oneplus 9 is finer sha. I like the camera arrangement. Did you root your oneplus 8, What firmware are u on? 2 days back i got the 11.0.8.8.IN11AA update, but i am reluctant to update until i hear some positive feedbacks.

ibawon:
I remember one Bros then that used to water our eyes with Oneplus devices barely weeks when they are released, but wait oo
Oneplus 1
Oneplus 5T
Oneplus 6
Oneplus 6T
Oneplus 7
Oneplus 7T
Those are the Oneplus devices I've used

Wow, you were loyal to the brand! How was your experience?

JimmyCrow:
7pro is not better than 8, 8pro isn't better than 9 ..I have been using one plus since op5 to 6t to 7t and now currently using 8..just say there's no point buying a op8 if you're already using 7pro..heck 7pro is sd855 not even 855+..
I used to get overheating prompts on 7t playing pubg 90fps for long sessions but on this 8 my temp is always below 37degrees..like the phone no even d feel the game sef. 865 is waaaay better than 855

Ok. Nice insights, hence the creation of this thread. Well, the users on reddit may choose to differ on their views on 7pro. From what i have seen Oneplus 8pro is better than One plus 9. Oneplus 8pro has better screen 513ppi vs 402, ip68 waterproofing can only be found on oneplus 9pro & 9t, better battery life (SD888 over heats & thats not good for the battery)4500mah vs 4510mah, camera has ois slightly better hardware on oneplus 8pro. Its just a better phone to my opinion. To me SD 888 is powerful but not much of an upgrade to SD865, they both handle same tasks with ease.

If mediocre fuel mileage will bother you, go for a 2010 Rav4, CRV or HRV.

If you are willing to overlook fuel mileage for cost of power go for 2010 4Runner, Highlander, MDX or Mazda CX9

RuneKingThor:
Well written thread. For a while I've been thinking of getting a OnePlus device. I might just entertain that idea.

You will stand out if you do. If you can, go for the pro version. Apart from using a year old processor the pro is always better than the next gen model. For example the 7pro is better than 8, 8pro is better than 9...

Benjaniblinks:
Let me sit down here
I'm a proud owner of a OnePlus 6. Just 2 days old Sha. The phone is super fast.

Oneplus 6 is still a very good phone. I remember the oneplus 6T being a gaming champ in 2018.

Do you know that when oneplus one came out, one needed to get an invite to buy it. Talking about exclusivity.

Oneplus came into limelight with their flagship killer Oneplus one in 2014. Ever since then Oneplus has remained in the top league of android phones, and one of the first Chinese brands to challenge Samsung, Sony, HTC and LG for the top spot in mobile technology. Apart from their decent hardware their main selling point is a bloat free close to vanilla android OS; Oxygen Os(global) & Hydrogen Os(Chinese). 7 years later we now have the oneplus 9, oneplus 9pro and oneplus Nord 2 with the Oneplus 9t coming soon.

Right now as far as android mobile phones are concerned the top 5 flagship brands are (not in any particular order) Samsung S21ultra, Xiaomi M11ultra, Pixel 5xl, Oneplus 9pro, xperia 1iii. Sadly Oneplus went from one of the affordable flagships to one of the most expensive, same as Xiaomi. Oneplus 9pro is close to a whopping 500k!

After a lovely year with a Mi Note 10lite (the most beautiful phone i have used) i decided its time i jumped ship and get a new experience out of MIUI, so here i am, now rocking 2020s Oneplus 8pro, i could not afford the oneplus 9!

The oneplus 8pro is still a powerful device by todays standards, the specs are as follows;
. Snapdragon 865
. Qualcomm Adreno 650
. Curved fluid 6.78 inches amoled 120hz display
. 3168 × 1440 resolution with 513ppi
. IP68 certified water and dust resistant
. Aluminium frame and gorilla glass 5 front and
back
. 8g 128gb or 12g 256gb
. 48, 48, 8 & 5 Sony rear camera & 16 front camera
. 4510 battery with 33w wireless charging and
reverse charging to charge other wireless devices
- Android 10 out of the box, updated to android
11. Oneplus promised 3yrs os updates and 4yrs
security patches. So android 13 is a given.

While changing brands my main concern was battery life. Smartphones of today have reached a crescendo in terms of technology, most phones have good cameras and enough power but battery capacity is always an issue. From research oneplus 8pro was second to Samsung galaxy S20 ultra. In real life use it was at per with my Mi Note 10lite (a battery king with 5260mah battery) due to the battery efficient SD 865 and the optimized Oxygen OS.

The first thing i did after setting it up was to root the device by patching the boot.img with magisk. I left the recovery untouched. The advantage of this method is to be able to update my os wen needed and still maintain root. I just have to un patch and patch the boot image. Easy!

This thread is to promote all things Oneplus. Pls be free to make discussions, post your pictures taken from oneplus, tell us about your oneplus device & your experience.

Do you know that the G63 AMG does not somersault, no matter what?

Before i make claims i first verify on google before i goof on the internet. The following images are G63 AMGs....

proclinician:
Have u seen a tank more than an AMG?

And ur point is?

Decentdave:
so if the accident involves explosions it wont explode..or if na naija container fall on top am e no go press?

This question should be directed to the person who claims the G63 is a life saver. Not me o!

proclinician:
So if they ask you to mention conventional accidents normal road users de get for road u say collision with train and tank

A train running through cars at a railway crossing is a conventional accident if you dont know. Sorry we live in Nigeria where the sights of trains running through towns and cities is rare, many havent seen a train and many dont know what railway crossing is. But i am very sure more have seen a train than a G63, so which is more conventional to you??

proclinician:
G63 amg is built such that no matter the nature of accident, the occupant won't die provided it didn't fall inside water.

Put it infront of a train, lets see the magic wey Mercedes do. Train wey dey rip trailers to shreds... The G63 is tough no doubt but dont say "built such that no matter the nature of accident, the occupant won't die"! Dude, a tank will run over that beauty with ease.

Neatly used my foot!

Do you have an office in Abuja or do we move our cars to Texas for repairs?

Very unfortunate. When next you want to buy cryptocurrency, do it through any of the exchanges(Binance, Bitrex, Latoken etc). Through their p2p (peer2peer) arrangements if the seller refuses to transfer the purchased crypto you can report him/her. The exchange will reimburse you and ban the seller for life.

I love how they blended the screen to the seats. Even Rolls Royce, Bentley & Benz wasnt this ingenious.

If I nack again ... Make I bend !!!!

Better prepare to bend....
....and unbend

You can only know by trying it out yourself. I have always wondered what it was like until one night i forgot my keys in my car. It only took a stone & a nice swing to know what it felt like.... then 5k to remind me not to forget my keys again.

mind you, the windshield is way stronger than the window glasses.

uzoma213:
You can just say you like all off-road cars because you just named almost all of them

I like cars generally, read every article about cars. In my next life i will be a mechanic, in this life i will own and drive as much as i can.

But for now its just me and my Corolla!

The OP requested for the best off road vehicles, from what is available in Nigeria, these are the best i know.

Not in any order;

1. FJ Cruiser
2. Toyota 4Runner (4×4 not SR5)
3. JEEP wrangler/ Rubbicon
4. Toyota Landcruiser (70 series)
5. G Wagon
6. Land Rover Defender
7. Toyota Hilux
8. Nissan Patrol

Showing affection, kissing your spouse infront of your kids is ok, but when kisses don dey lead to ass grabbing.... Hell no,go to the oza room!

some c class are AMG and tuned nicely



Especially sports

Its like you didnt understand my comment. i was talking down the C Class or comparing it to the Lexus IS, rather the man behind the wheels.

They are not surrendering out of remorse or change of heart, but because of hunger and disease. Their killer instincts is docile due to a threat to their survival, this doesnt change who they are, let them face the law prosecute them all!
