Oneplus 11 – Are they really back?

When Oneplus one comes to the market they just spread like wildfire.  Everyone was trying to get an invitation to buy one, p.s (yes, an invitation was necessary to buy one those days). After seeing huge success and setting a benchmark in the mobile phone industry for quite some time, they have gone miserably wrong with their phone. After taking over by Oppo they made some unnecessary buggy devices and software updates, which forces their fans to shift to other manufacturers. But after the launch of oneplus 11, this question has been asked by all the oneplus lovers, are they really back.??

After using the device for a month or so I can clearly say there are some small compromises but in general it is a good phone altogether. No, this review will not be going to be a back-of-the-box reading or a small essay. But rather it will be my experience based on my observation. So I will divide this review into two parts:-

Things I Like about the Oneplus 11 – 

1- OP11 is such a well-balanced device, neither it is too heavy nor too light. Fits perfectly in your hand.

2- The texture of the black OP11 is on point, giving a feel of the sandstone finish.

3- The best haptic motors that you can get in today’s market. Brilliant, even it is better than the S23 flagship of Samsung.

4- Oxygen OS is working fine, although there is some touch of color OS that can be seen but still it’s good.

5- They have promised 4 yrs of major software updates and 5 yrs of security patch updates, making it future-ready.

6- Nice set of cameras, no-nonsense. Color correction has been done beautifully by Hasselblad.

7- Speakers are damn good. Brilliant clarity and proper surround sound experience.

8- Super fast charger, takes about 25 min to fully charge the device, also the battery backup is extremely good. I got about 7-8 hrs of screen on time.

Things I did not like about the Oneplus 11:-

1- Although it is a QHD Dolby vision display, somehow the quality of the screen is not up to the mark.

2- No waterproof rating, it cost around 60k/ 799$, still not getting a proper IP68 rating is not justifiable

3- No wireless charging, Yes, I know it has a crazy fast charger but I think it is just cost-cutting from Oneplus.

So far this is what I have experienced, and if you ask me OP 11 is a nice phone and you can definitely go for it.
