    Will OP 7T Pro work on Verizon?

    Thanks, I appreciate the input. I actually decided to go with the 7 Pro. I just like the form factor so much better (it is a sexy beast) and, since I virtually never take selfies, I really like that that camera is out of sight.

    OnePlus 7T vs 7 Pro

    I have this same question as the OP. As I posted in another thread, I took a chance by ordering the European version of the 7T Pro to see if it would work in the US on Verizon ... only to discover today that they won't support it (even though all the relevant spec's are identical to the 7 Pro...

    Will OP 7T Pro work on Verizon?

    Final word from Verizon: they support the 7 Pro and the 7T, but will not support any "international Android devices" including the 7T Pro. Can't speak for other US carriers, but no love from Verizon. :( Hope my little experiment helps others. Question for me now is, 7T or 7 Pro? having held...

    Will OP 7T Pro work on Verizon?

    UPDATE: I decided to be the guinea pig and ordered the European version of the 7T Pro. It arrived today but, without boring you with the details, after being on the phone with several people at Verizon, they advise that the phone is not recognized in their systems and will not work on their...

    Will OP 7T Pro work on Verizon?

    Yeah, I've seen the rumors that Verizon was going to get the McLaren version of the OP 7T Pro, but I'd prefer to stick with an unlocked phone if possible. I had much better experience with updates on my unlocked Nexus 6P than I ever had on any dedicated Verizon phone.

    Will OP 7T Pro work on Verizon?

    I know this will probably sound like a really stupid question, but I'm hoping the hive mind here can answer this question for me. I know the 7T Pro is not coming to the US (at least not now), which really bummed me out. But, I've looked at the specs and see that it does support a long list of...

    OnePlus 7 Pro 5G in the US?

    Just wondering if anyone has found any information indicating whether and/or when the 7 Pro 5G might be available in the US. My Google-fu may be failing me, but I've looked everywhere and cannot find information on this. I'm on Verizon (for better or worse) and live in Boston, so 5G is of...

    OnePlus 7/7 Pro Picture Thread

    Re: OnePlus 7 Pro Picture Thread LOL! Yeah, I have to come clean: the only reason I saw this was that I started following Phonedog's FaceBook page years ago, back when Aaron Baker was everywhere, and I just never unfollowed it. This actually popped up on my Facebook newsfeed. As for Aaron, I...

    Re: OnePlus 7 Pro Picture Thread I don't know if this is the right place for this, but just saw this on PhoneDog.com and thought the folks here would be interested. OnePlus 7Pro Camera Update Coming

    Jumped ship from the Pixel line and I couldn't be happier.

    To the OP, thanks for posting. I'm still using my Nexus 6P and have loved the phone, but am thinking it may be time for an update and am very seriously considering the OP 7Pro. While I really would like a 3.5mm jack, I can get over that. Wondering if you could answer a couple of questions: with...

    Verizon ?

    Thank you for this thread. I am also tied to VZW for various reasons, and am extremely interested in the OP7p. I am currently still using my Nexus 6P (which I still love, but which is getting a little long in the tooth). I know when I first got it, while it would work on the VZW network, it...

    Advice: 6P on VZW - trip to Japan

    Thanks for your thoughts. I've also done some other research that suggests some of the problems I - and others - have experience when traveling abroad is related to the fact that the 6P is not technically a "supported device" on Verizon, and the suggested fixes for this are sort of a PITA, so I...

    Advice: 6P on VZW - trip to Japan

    I will be traveling to Japan in a few weeks and, in preparation, I have been researching options for phone service. Originally, I was planning to purcahse the Mobal SIM card for Japan, but they indicate my American version of the 6P offers 3G Band 1 but not 4G Band 1, meaning I cannot get 4G...

    Sticking with Nexus 6P in late 2017?

    As I just said on another thread, other than the battery issue, this is the best phone I've ever had. I bought it right when they came out in November 2015. The battery issue did become unbearable, though, and I chose to have it replaced locally for $79 last fall and, for me, it was well worth...
