đ Good morning, Daily Authority readers. I was at the OnePlus 11 global launch event last evening, and boy was it a packed show! There must have been a thousand people on the talk. This was probably the only big show from OnePlus this year as there is no OnePlus 11 Pro on the horizon. Anyway, Iâm going to do a quick wrap up of everything OnePlus announced, including what we thought of the OnePlus 11. review,
Is the old OnePlus back?

The OnePlus 11 went global yesterday. This is probably the only flagship phone that OnePlus is planning to launch this year, apart from the possible foldable phone that the company may have teased at the event. whatâs here Android Authority Ryan Haynes said about the phone in our review,
Party
- The OnePlus 11 sports an impressive design and premium finish. Evergreen is excellent.
- The alert slider is back after being absent on the OnePlus 10T.
- Already have the OnePlus 10T? Hereâs some advice on upgrading to the OnePlus 11.
- Talking about OnePlus 11, it seems that the company has struck the right balance in terms of waterfall display.
- The 6.7-inch display is bright and sharp, and the 120Hz variable refresh rate is smooth and as low as 1Hz.
- With moderate usage, you can extend the usage of the phone to close to two days.
- Charging is also pretty fast, at 80W in the US and 100W in the rest of the world. We took about 30 minutes for a full charge with the former and 25 minutes with the latter.
- The performance results with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 are impressive. It easily beats the OnePlus 10T, which was designed to be a performance-first device with its Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset.
- We didnât notice any stuttering or slowing down, even when running graphically demanding games like Asphalt 9.
- That 50MP primary sensor, for its part, performed very well in bright light.
- The most impressive part of the OnePlus 11âs camera setup is its portrait detection.
- Four years of Android updates and five years of security patches is also a big positive for the OnePlus 11, which is now matched by Samsungâs industry-leading update commitment.
Opposition
- While 80W wired charging is impressive, it comes at the cost of wireless charging, which is missing.
- Furthermore, the OnePlus 11 comes with a USB-A charging block and a USB-A to USB-C cable. This means that if you have to borrow a friendâs charger and they only have the USB-C option, youâll quickly run into problems.
- While we didnât notice any issues with the OnePlus 11âs performance in day-to-day tasks, it struggled in the stress tests.
- The Eternal Green finish looks great but itâs also a fingerprint and smudge magnet.
- Itâs good to see IP ratings for all OnePlus 11 models and not just for specific carriers, but IP64 isnât enough.
- The OnePlus 11âs 50MP primary sensor starts to struggle as soon as the clouds come out. Low-light performance is also a real sore point
- The phoneâs Hasselblad-branded cameras also often suffer from muted colors and poor low-light performance.
In many ways, the OnePlus 11 is a successful return to what made the brand exciting in the first place. go ahead and do a full investigation review To read our full verdict.

wednesday surprise
TIL â In the Steven Spielberg-produced horror film Poltergeist, a football poster says â1988 Super Bowl XXII,â which is weird because the movie was released in 1982. Even more strange, in 1988, the day after the Super Bowl, Heather OâRourke, who played Carol Anne Freeling in the films, died during surgery. The posterâs appearance and lack of explanation from the filmmakers has led to it becoming part of the infamous âpoltergeist curseâ.
