[SOLVED] Samsung s7 vs Oneplus 3 or the Huawei p9 lite

[murtaza12]

[MENTION=42544]murtaza12[/MENTION] Telemart.pk or ishopping.pk for oneplus3? Which is more reliable as I live in Lahore dont want any issues after ordering. thanks

Never used Telemart, I ordered once from them and they didn't have it in stock.

iShopping is good. They take a while to dispatch the item itself from Karachi, but since they use BlueEx, it reaches very quickly and unlike TCS, BlueEx always updates their tracking status.

When is that coming out? problem is my current phone is giving me too many issues so I want to make the switch. thanks

Shipping for Pixel starts in November and the base price in the US is $695 or something. Too overpriced.

It'll be about 75k AT LEAST when it reaches Pakistan.

I'd stick with the OP3 if I were you.

Get Galaxy S7 or an iPhone 7 don't think twice about these 2nd rate companies only spend your money on the best and great brands like Apple or Samsung.

otherwise if you want to buy something from a 2nd rate brand why don't you get this with 4gb ram

QMobile Noir Z14 - Full phone specifications price is around 25k.

If you want to spare some of your money and enjoy the same level of performance then but Xiaomi Mi5. Redmi note 3 is also an excellent option. You get much better value for money then going the apple and samsung route. I myself used galaxy S7 and it looked like a cheap replica, the finger print sucked and edge feature is next to useless. I wouldnt spend 20k on it if it was selling for that price. Just do yourself a favour and buy a decent midrange phone. After sometime all youa re gonna do is call,sms,whatsapp,facebook, browse the web. Even if you game the Snapdragon 820 in mi5 is more than capable phone for any game now a days. Even if one has infinite amount of money, its better to spend it wisely instead of throwing money on things you think you need but can do with other less costly things.
My 2 cents.

This is some much needed valuable advice, especially the part about not wasting money.

One problem is where to get the Xiomi Mi5? I avoid typical shops cause you never know what fraud they are cooking up.

thank you.

there was a time when samsung was a 2nd rate company as well.

Check olx. There are sellers selling brand new box packed mi5 for around 35k. That's insane amount of value. But as with everything on olx you can negotiate the price. Just be cautious and check then packaging etc before buying. You will be fine.

Look's like you are back to square one. Since judging by your conversation and opinion you still seemed quite confused. Just go with the one that pop up's in your head, else you'll always be confused.

Seems like im still confused lol. not particularly impressed by any phone these days. Its just that I really need a new one now and this is forcing me to get one.

My honest opinion OP3 any day. Rest it's your opinion/choice.

I value your opinion thank you. Camera and display is better on s7 but people are facing so many issues that own it.

People are generally happy with OP3 but some label it as cheap crap.

Only thing that worries me is that OP3 has almost no support in Pakistan. I dont even think ill be able to find a protective case for it?

OP3's camera isnt that good but apart from that it looks quite nice.

Whoever said OnePlus makes crap, I could agree with them to a certain extent in 2014, the OnePlus One had tons of manufacturing issues, the one I have lying in my cupboard has display issues which are a pain in the ass for someone who types a lot, but they improved with the OP2 and the OPX, however, the OP3 is an entirely different story.

The OnePlus 2 was a great phone no doubt, but you could tell where they cut corners, there are some areas where you'd think 'Why is this labeled a premium device?', but again, the OP3 is completely different. They really nailed it with this.

Fortunately, I had the chance to use one for about 10 minutes, that's not much to judge, but it didn't feel like a OnePlus. The build quality, nothing I expected from OnePlus, a solid premium phone. The camera, again, I expected crap from OnePlus considering the camera they used on the OPO sucked ass, but this one is really impressive. Don't believe me? Go on Twitter and see what people have to say. I can't say about software experience myself since 10 minutes was barely enough to make an impression, but Oxygen OS is based on Stock Android, so it's quite snappy and light from what I could tell by watching YouTube videos. Just know, the OP3 is really worth the money if you're getting it at a good price.
Also, there is a place where you can get cases, covers and a skin or two for OnePlus phones. I'll PM you about it when you get the phone.

Camera may be good on the S7, but that surely can't be the only selling point? Well, it is and for me it was too. Everything else on the S7 is exactly the same as the S6, even the piece of crap fingeprirnt scanner which doesn't even register half the time.

I'm using OnePlus 3 and couldn't be more happier with any other Android phone, it's fast and fluid battery life is good and dash charge is really fast I mean 0~100% in freaking 60mins and regular updates latest is Oxygen OS 3.2.7 still based on Marshmallow 6.0.1, but Android 7.0 Nougat is in works already and public beta will be released soon.
The thing is it's a great device.

Your reply was quite informative thanks for going into detail. OP3 no doubt is a great phone. The camera is good but could have been better. the phone is very snappy and quick and does everything you want it to.

There was this person called fapste on Pakgamers who said something got to do with touch screen responsiveness or something like that, that was poor on the OP3 that got me confused? I might go back and check what he wrote to me.

I believe what you say and even during my research ive heard only good things about the oneplus3 while s7 is littered with comments in regards to problems people are facing.

I really am grateful for all the input you have provided and if I do endup getting the OP3 will definitely get the details of the OP3 case person off of you- Thanks for this.

always reliable info from a real OP3 user- thanks mate. The charging capabilities are truly amazing. great snappy phone with nice looks but I cant believe some people call it rubbish coming out of China?

 

[murtaza12]

touch screen responsiveness or something like that, that was poor on the OP3 that got me confused?

This is exactly what I was referring to. The OP3 has no major reported issues about the screen, there may have been a few, all the units were replaced with new ones, no more issues.
Like I said, the issues were there and very prominent in the older devices like the OnePlus One and OnePlus X.

EDIT: Get an opinion from [MENTION=327]Pcsx2006[/MENTION]
He has one, I'm sure he hasn't come across any touch screen issues.

That guy might have a faulty piece but mine is super responsive, And having iPhone 7 Plus as well.
I mostly use OnePlus 3 for daily task and iPhone 7 Plus for showoff[emoji41]

is it worth buying phones without warranty?

 

[murtaza12]

is it worth buying phones without warranty?

Depends on the phone's history of being defective or having higher chances of being faulty. *cough* LG G4, Galaxy Note 7 *cough*

If you're talking about the OP3, it has no warranty in Pakistan anyway, only Samsung does. And you can't get the S7 without warranty, so you have no choice.
