List of how OP Settled on 6T

[katmandoo122]

So I've been hyped to get the 6T but more and more, man, there are a lot of issues. Let's see...

• No HP Jack
• Slow FPS
• No LED
• USB 2.0, not 3
• Still a single speaker
• Same meh camera as 6
• Same bad haptics
• Higher price
• What am I missing?

OK - better battery, great notch implementation, and even tho the FPS is slow, it still has some wow factor, but it really feels like OP missed on this one. Am I wrong?

In fairness, I thought the price only increased on the base model. I might be wrong though.

Single speaker is extremely disappointing. And bad haptics would be an instant reminder that your phone is one of compromise.

It went up $20 I think but I believe the storage also doubled so not really an increase?

The haptics do concern me but I don't love them on my Pixel 2 either so it may not bother me.

The fps is more because of first generation tech. Maybe software updates will fix it

The choice to get rid of the notification LED but not implement always on display is odd. All of the other compromises I'm ok with.

Also the camera processing is definitely improved, even not considering the special nightscape mode. Look at the arstechnica review.

I agree, the argument for getting rid of the Led was having AOD, but the op6t has neither??? I guess they feel double tap and raise to wake eliminated the need for AOD
