Oneplus 3 vs ZTE Axon 7

I know there are a lot versus threads popping up (OP3 vs Samsung S7, OP3 vs Nexus 6P,.. ), but I would really like to hear your opinions about the ZTE Axon 7.
https://www.zteusa.com/axon7/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7
I'm very interested in the Oneplus 3, but the Axon 7 looks so promising.
I really don't understand why this device isn't getting more attention. (Bad marketing?)
It is on many point familiar with the OP3. But imo has more interesting features.
They are releasing a 6GB/128GB model and a 4GB/64GB model.
- Same Snapdragon 820 CPU
- Same Adreno 530 GPU
- Both are Dual SIM
- Same screen size
Pro's for the ZTE Axon 7
MicroSD support
1440 x 2560 resolution display instead of 1080 x 1920.
20MP camera (can't really compare the quality)
Quality dual front facing speakers
Larger battery (not by much. 3140 vs 3000 mAh)
Pro's for the Oneplus 3
Great community and custom rom support.
Comparison between the two on GSMArena
I also prefer the fingerprint sensor on the back, but I admit this is personal preference.
The only thing I'm afraid of would be the possible lack of a community.
So please tell me. Why should I choose the Oneplus 3?

I personally don't know anything about zte development here on xda(my bad) the specs are look really promising.
But think about it. It's only 140mAh more battery for a 2K display...and don't want to mention the phone's own UI(talking about the optimization)
It is a bad marketing from ZTE, I haven't heard about the device at all....
The sd card is just unnecessary for the 6gb/128gb IMHO.
When is this phone gonna be released? Interested abou the price and want to know if it will have a European version....

It is a AMOLED display, so battery shouldn't be too affected.. They are aiming for google daydream support after all and a resolution like that is required.
The MicroSD slot is a hybrid SIM-slot. Unnecessary since I will be using 2 sims, and like you said, 128GB is more than enough storage. But useful when I think of flashing a new rom.
If I read correct the release should be somewhere in mid June - begin Juli.
So hopefully not much longer.

I have been searching for a phone for at least 6 months and this phone was on my list.
I compared the OP 3, Axon 7, and the Zenphone 3 deluxe.
All very similar in specs besides the screen on ZTE axon 7. Both zenfone 3 d and axon have the front facing speakers, but also both start at a higher price tag for what I consider not important enough features for me to justify the jump.
The oneplus 3 has everything on the inside the other two do, yet an appealing price tag, and developer community is not just supported, but encouraged. This made the phone a win in my book. I can manage fine with a decent display and lose the dual front facing speakers (which I really wanted). It literally depends on how much your willing to spend for what is important to you.
Either way, the ZTE seems to be a fine phone, and is a top contender for anyone. I just didn't want to pay more for a less ram/storage option over what the op3 offered me.

Keep in mind that the ZTE offers a free extended warranty program 'Passport 2.0'.
A similar warranty program for the OP3 costs you $80 extra.
Axon 7 + Passport 2.0 (2 years warranty and free out-of-warranty repairs): $450
OnePlus3 + On-Guard Plus 24 (2 years protection similar to Passport 2.0): $399 + $80 = $479.
But yeah.. not that I was going to buy that extra warranty for the OP3. So I get your point.

Coming from the 10, a lot of the Axon 7s features really struck a chord with me, like the dual FFS, and their insane attention to detail when it comes to headphone audio.
However, aside from that I can think of like 0 reason to pick it over the 10 or the OP3. Why am I going to OP3/7 after owning a 10? Great question. I just have an obsession with trying new phones. Maybe an addiction.
Not sure either will stay, but I love trying them all.

There is also the ZUK Z2 Pro which has a 5.2" Full HD screen.

Last time I took a look at the ZTE Axon 7 this was what I learned:
- ZTE = active in USA (outside their home markets), Passport 2.0 program applies to USA (afaik), ZTE is looking to expand their activity in EU but so far they don't even really have an active EU site (again afaik).
- I have contacted ZTE about EU availability, they did "not know anything" at the time, ZTE UK even tweeted Q4 release in UK (in 4 months maybe the new nexus is the new star).
twitter.com/ZTE_UK/status/743094792049987584
- The 'normal' Axon 7 has huge top/bottom bezels, the premium (6GB version, touch force, wood inlay, capacitive buttons on the bottom) is again no information on if it would launch in USA/EMEA markets (maybe China only). I was very interested in the premium for a short time but I have serious doubts they won't put a 500+ $/€ price tag on it, which blows past my price point for a "Chinese Brand" phone.
Pretty much the same applies to the Zuk Z2 Pro which is only available in EU region through import (so far) and that raises the price as well.
Now all this was last week, maybe fresh info points to other availability/launch dates.
tl:dr: For USA Axon7 is a OP3 contender, for EU we'll have to wait (for months possibly).

I've tried ZTE in the past, non of the ZTE devices I've owned have ever received updates or timely ones, and the XDA community for these devices just doesn't exist. My dad's Alcatel phone recently died (another garbage brand), and I decided to get him ZTE phone. I knew that I shouldn't have, and I was right, the capacitive keys just stopped working on it, and my dad is currently using it without them until I get him a better phone... Just avoid the following brands BLU, Alcatel, ZTE, ASUS (for smartphones), and the myriad of cheap Chinese brands out there. Either the XDA community will not exist, and/or they do not support their devices, and/or the hardware quality control is piss poor. The only Chinese brands I trust are Oneplus, Xiaomi, and Huawei.

You actually trust xiaomi? The Mi5 is the most flimsy phone I have ever felt lmao...
I should tell you. This phone was given to me for development purposes. 1st time in the pocket... Cracked screen

The only Chinese branded smartphones I've owned from the brands I recommended have been the OPO and the 6P. To this day both of those stand as the only two smartphones that I call the best I've ever had. As far as Xiaomi goes, I've been very happy with their Yi action cam and the random home electronic devices, trinkets, and accessories I've bought from them. Hell, I even use their huge mouse and keyboard pads on my gaming rig now. I've heard many good things about their smartphones, but I trust you in your assessment of them, smartphones are a lot harder to pull off.

Awesome. Thanks for the feedback!
Guess I'm going to wait a bit longer for the release announcement, but as it looks now, the OP3 looks like the better choice when you're in the EU.

I had to think about aswell and my choice ist the axon 7. Better Display, Better Sound and Better camera. It has am mircosd Slot. Look at this Video. http://youtu.be/anmqPsVYeN0/

I think a big determining factor for me is well the zte axon 7 be be rootable? We know the one plus 3 will be but many of other zte phones weren't rootable.

I was on the fringe between buying op3 or waiting for the axon 7. I decided on the op3 for two reasons. , Capacitive buttons, 6gb ram and dev support. OK 3 reasons. I am French American and travel to France a lot. I looked the ZTE for the front speakers and full Eu and USA LTE bands. But i decided on the op3. Excited to receive it.

My reason for OP3 was minimal bloatware, and presece of google services. Now this is kinda something you better dont expect right out of the box with the chinese phones. You can install google services, yes, but there might be some issues here and there. The Axon7 is a beast. But wheb you look at Axon Elite, which is sold for $200 and has not that great support well...

one huge PRO for the OP3 is OxygenOS, which is near stock vs the touchwize-like modifications on the ZTE Axon

Pro's:
- Really need 2k display ? (Google Daydream also applys for thr Oneplus 3)
- Micro SdCard is for Musik&Pictures&Videos etc. If you have a lot okay (64gb modell). But 64Gb is enougth imo
- More Battery doesn't mean better batterylife (+2K display uses more)
I'll recommend you the OnePlus 3 after using it for a Month.
Pro's for the OnePlus 3:
- Really easy unlocking bootloader (one fastboot command) + warrenty
- Great Dev Community
- Great Stock OS
- Rocking Fingerprintsensor
(- I like the Design more, it just looks more premium imo )
- really big Pro is DASH Charge
OnePlus 3 - OP3Lite | systemless root | xposed v86 ?

I have both and right now, I'd have to say unless you need a SLIGHTLY better camera, or stronger cell reception then your better off with the Axon 7. Speaker, DAC, screen, build and battery are all better on the Axon. in places im seeing signals of -120 to -123db on my Axon, the OnePlus is at -116 to 118. Even with that said, the Axon still takes the win on battery life.

Life after P8000

I wondered if anyone had any suggestions as to where to go after our P8000 has worn out? What similarly priced and spec phone is best?

Redmi Note 3 with Snapdragon 650 and 3 GB RAM. Best bang for your buck and Custom ROMs Best phone I ever had especially for that price.

I agree with @BlueFlame4,
i got that device (Kenzo) when my elephone died. best device. even the GPU is better than mid range phones. its like a high end device in the mid range phone.
if you need band 20 then get the device with the codename Kate, this version has the band 20 implemented in it for Taiwan.
only issue is right now regarding that is some say custom roms work from kenzo, others say they don't etc etc.
mind you, it's been a while since i've used this device.
I hope Xiaomi implements NFC in the redmi note 4 SD version when it comes out.
and really good to see the elephone p8000 rocking

Thank you. Very helpful advice. I think I shall have to have NFC in next phone. It seems the time is right. Does the lack of the band 20 affect UK 4G/3G operators?

In my case I opted for an Asus Zenfone 2 with 4Gb RAM and 32 Gb ROM. Recently updated to Android 6 with a very well working rom, unlike P8000. I only miss the fingerprint sensor, but considering it was a bit underused on the P8000, nothing to miss really

yes.
all of O2's 4G is on 800MHz and Three uses it too for building penetration in urban areas and for coverage in less built up places. voda and EE use it too. so while aside from O2 you will still get some 4G in short, yeah it is an issue.

Xiaomi Redmi note 4? I know that it has just a mediatek helio x20 version right now, but I've heard some rumors that it'll have a snapdragon variant too, which is better for development.

I have now bought the Leeco le 2 internationally.
The phone is really great!
Real compass, gyroscope, LTE 20 (800MHz)
Root and Xposed work top.
A nice EUI ... and the best is the kernel source is available.
Perfect successor for 180 € from DE

I bought the LeEco Le Pro 3 for 300 bucks. It's just freakin awesome, does everything, has dual SIM, BIG battery, nice stereo speakers, 4k camera, superfast CPU/GPU etc etc.
Will continue using the P8000 as a navigation system.

I've got P9000 now. Very happy so far.

I ended up getting a Leeco Max X2 x829 for $220. Works great on ATT. 3GB ram, 2.15Ghz quad core, 1080p screen, and 64GB storage. There is no sdcard slot or headphone jack, but easy solution is keeping a 32GB USB stick with a USB type C flat connector on it, attached to my car key ring for backups (Roms, gapps, twrp backup etc...). And keeping the Type C headphone jack on the end of my headphones.

Elephone P8 mini

I will never ever get Elephone again. Like.. not in a million years. They have 0% respect for their customers, 0% support for their phones. Maybe their phones are cheaper than the usual, but f*ck it..it is not worth it. I'm stuck with this damn P8000 for 1,5 years now.. I'm satisfied with the phone and the performance, but i strongly dislike the company. My next phone will definitely be Xiaomi or HTC.
Xiaomi - Cuz they are cheap and have great performance + great customer care
HTC - They have outstanding performance + their OS are very very good.
My .02

Don't laugh at me now but I've gone back to my Galaxy S5 with extended 7000mah battery. Gave the P8000 to my 9 year old daughter.

After Elephone M3 (mine) and P9000 (my wife's):
M3 is/was GREAT after final update. Absolutely no issues.
P9000 - mixed feelings. Elephone never got rid of all bugs and on top it's blacklisted for androidpay. Despite Android 7 and LineageOS14.1 it never lived up to it's position as Elephone's "flagship"
Both phones of course now suffer from the 2 year old Helio-P10-SoC, which was good at that time but now already feels a bit outdated. On the P9000 more than on the M3.
I searched for a worthy successor for the M3 (my wife got my M3 and won't give it back to me...) and compared all available phones in the <200$-class.
With my keystones I came with only one: Elephone P8.
I got one for 163€ (!!!) and after updating it felt nearly perfect. Considering the price it's real blast.
Sadly, mine was defective. No SIM-connection, otherwise ok.
At first I suspected a software-problem and contacted Elephone's customer-support.
And here I must say: They were very very good. Responded very fast (despite the time-difference), explained a lot of things, advised a lot of things to try, even went with me through the flashing-process and a lot of settings.
16 eMails (!) were exchanged between me and Elephone customer-service within one day.
Never had such a good customer-support-experience in my life.

I've now upgraded to Huawei P20 Pro because I find great contract deal. All is very good!

What is the biggest difference between OnePlus 3 and Oneplus 5

hi, dear all
if anyone can tell the biggest difference between Oneplus 3 and Oneplus5 ?

Gsmarena will tell you much better than us I think, there is a great comparison tool

I'd say the most strikingly obvious one would be the camera setup: the rear camera sports a dual-camera setup and the front camera has an upgraded specs in it (though I cannot speak for their quality since I have never personally tried them myself).
Going down from camera, there isn't much of a difference; The usual specs bump are there: new SoC (Snapdragon 835 vs OnePlus3's Snapdragon 820), more storage capacity which also happen to have more RAM (as long as you pick the 8/128 model).
If you're going WAY down, you can also spot upgrades like Bluetooth 5.0, the same battery capacity as the OnePlus 3T, and a very minor dual LED flash which upgrades over the single LED flash of the OnePlus 3.
Oh and of course, the updated design, but that's obvious.

Long story short, camera and SoC. With OP5 also being a bit more expensive.
If you're shopping, I'd say forget both and go for the new 5T (if budget allows). That screen alone is worth it. If not, you can't go wrong with either of older ones.

X2 Vs X2 pro

Does anyone else feel that X2 offers more value for money than X2 Pro or is it just me?
I mean the difference in performance between 730g and 855+ is very little and shouldn't hold anyone back from having a smooth performance on both SoCs.
Same goes with 90Hz display, you'd probably see a little more smoother transition but so little that you won't even notice that in daily usage.
Any other major difference worth paying about $170 more?
For me, it was the back panel design that killed my desire to buy X2 Pro.

I am planning on getting Realme X2 there will be no real-life difference in opening apps
apart from heavy gaming which could still be in split second. I don't plan to do heavy video editing on phone either so I'll say,
Yes, stick with X2 that ~$200 more is not worth it at all.
Oh! and that Logo placement on the X2 pro WTF!!!

I agree with you, also.
I've almost decided to buy the Realme X2 to replace my Nokia 7+, in my case the X2 Pro isn't suitable because of the lack of MicroSD slot and it's 150 € more for a marginally better SoC, Screen, quick charge and cameras.
Regards!

I was torn betwixt the X2 and X2 Pro, but upon looking at things more closely I think I also will be going for the X2 and saving a bit of money. Besides, I don't use my phones for gaming so the 855+ and 90Hz screen may be a tad overkill for me just using it phone, take photos and run apps.

It was the dedicated SD Card Slot for me.

I agree but it was the lack of dedicated SD Card slot in the Pro that was the deciding factor in my decision to by the X2.
What's the point of having a dual SIM phone if you need to use the second slot for memory? I love that the X2 has 3 slots instead of only 2 with one being a hybrid.

Was looking at the pro till I realized this is just better value,
Currently contemplating my next move,

X2 has dual SIM
PLUS
SD-Card Slot
The most important feature ever. Yet so few phones have it nowadays.

Yea,this a big advantage and the SD 730g is no slouch.Just Wondering about the cameras,how different ate they,seems 8mp instead of 13mp on one of the lenses(can't find definitive answer online).
But you get a 32mp front camera on the x2.
I guess your just missing out on the nice features of the pro,UFS 3.0,dual speakers,90hz,but is that even that important in 2019

For me two things are very important:
GCAM and Support from XDA.
I had a MI8 SE and it suffers this kind of problem.
I will wait a little bit more to see if X2 will have roms to be ported and if the support for GCAM will be good.

Hi guys sobI wanted to buy a phone around $300 and i've (almost) decided on X2. I will be probably ordering it from the EU site. Have anyone got theirs already? How is it? How's the sound quality on headphones? And overall feeling?

Having done research I think you might want to get a Mi 9T just for the better software and camera processing,the x2 does have an SD slot but other than that I think it's probably a weak phone for daily use. Ive heard reports the x2 screen is poor,not very bright.

https://www.kimovil.com/en/compare/realme-x2-global,realme-xt-730g-india-8gb-128gb
Basically we wait till the "Realme XT 730G" releases in India and BAM we get custom ROM support.
Its the same phone.

Your statement does not appear to be confirmed in actual test results (from 5 minutes onward):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bmQpNkoh3w
Even if you don't understand Spanish, the test results are labeled, so it's easy to see which camera is which. Overall, as a photographer, I give the win to Realme. And if video is your thing, then really, you are wasting your money on a Mi 9T, since the Realme makes intelligent use of it's gyro sensors to give 1080p footage that rivals putting your phone on an actual gimbal (such as DJI Osmo, for example). It's not quite as good, but speaking as an owner of various gimbaled devices, it's about 80% there.

I thought that x2 EU 8gb ram 128 gb storage ufs 2.0 for 279euro is the best deal, but I bought x2 pro EU 12 gb ram 256 gb ufs 3.0 for 449euro. The reasons:
the biggest and the fastest storage x2 ufs2 x2 pro ufs 3.0
display is the same as oneplus 7t
Dolby stereo sound

Was close to pulling the trigger on that over the weekend with that deal but didn't because not sure about the software and future software support,
Definitely by specs it is the flagship killer phone of the year,
If I could get the 8/128 model for around €400 I might consider that because even at 449 for 12/256 it was costing about 470 to 480 to get delivered from amazon Spain to where I am

Color OS 7 is coming, may be in 2-3 months, It will be something like Oxygen, a bit worse but very close. There is gcam 7.2 for Color OS 6. I've paid 449 euro plus 11.6 euro delivery. Great blackfriday deal, thank you Amazon.es.
X2 is good deal, but x2 pro 256 is almost oneplus 7T with more storage for me fantastic deal.

I'm agree with you.i am also think that Realme X2 is better than X2 pro.perfomance not like very big difference in X2 and X2 pro.But Budget have big difference..That's why i prefer for buying Realme X2.

Agree,
The only practical difference between these two devices is one x2 pro is more gamer focused than x2.
But x2 is half the price of pro so its more value for money than pro

Initial Impressions/Opinions ?

So I've been eyeing this phone for a few weeks now,I was going to get the 9t last year but didn't and I ended up getting the X2 pro which for the most part has been an excellent device and obviously much more powerful,
I'm someone who gets bored of my phone and regularly change it at least every 2 years.
The X2 pro is good in every department but the camera let's it down a lot and the 4000mah battery is decent but it can run down fairly quickly,
The software is actually good on the Realme,
Would I be crazy to straight swap my X2 pro for a mi 10t lite,
Things I like about it are:
the Sony 64mp camera
Big 2 day battery
I like iPS screens and 120hz sounds good
I'm interested to try MiUI
There are dual speakers,
Basically it has all the essential things I would need
And I'm not a gamer but do browse a lot of social media and web ,news etc.
Has anyone moved from a more powerful device to the mi 10t lite ?
What are your impressions so far ?
Or is anyone considering it ?
Am I stupid/crazy to want to move to this Perhaps lower end device ?

Just to update,this was a bad idea,although interesting budget phone the X2 pro is far superior so I will hold out

Just got mine today and wow what an amazing phone so much flagship tech packed into a phone for £229 was intending on spending £600+ but no need now has everything I need dual stereo speakers, 120hz display , big battery , amazing camera, snappy 5g CPU 6gb ram list goes on and on , you wouldn't regret getting one and if order from Vodafone ATM you can claim a pair of buds worth £79:99 or a Amazon evoucher £150 now that's a lot for £229 for base model [emoji106]

Definitely a great deal and a solid device especially at that price point,I had purchased the 6/128 model on Amazon for £250 but later cancelled because I wasn't too sure on it.
I don't see any reason now to pay 500+ for a phone when devices like these are being released.
I will hang on to my 1 year old X2 pro tho for a while and keep an eye on Xaoimis releases

Got mine last week too directly from xiaomi, so far im very impressed. comming from a one plus 6 with lineage installed wasnt too sure how id like it but im happy enough for now, until lineage is avaliable for it anyway also hope to find cases for it on ebay soon

Coming from a redmi note 5 pro
And before that a one plus one.
Like the screen blacks. Still I think not comparable to op1.
Cameras. I've always been disappointed with cameras. This one looks ok. Esp the macro
Works fine no glitches.
But heavy. Soo heavy. Can't get used to it. That was the last phone I buy over 180 grams ever.

I am still impressed every day (coming from a bq Aquaris X).

One week with it and I keep struggling with communications. Wifi and Bluetooth stability trouble. Trying to find solutions, but it's not what I expect when I buy a new phone. So I'll try to fix things if possible this weekend and if not, I'll send it back to Amazon. Quite disappointed at this moment. It seems a good phone for the price but tired to lose my time. I need it to run flawlessly.

Interesting comment. While I think 6.3" and 186 g can be handled (I have a RN7) I'm unsure if the "now standard" 6.7" and ~215 g are a good daily companion (because of the better CPU/SOC etc. I plan to upgrade sooner or later). At least I hope this is the limit and we do not get 7" Phablets as standard Smartphone size soon. I remember when people complained about everything bigger then 4.5"
