Next level content would be the same, but with no commercial bias. This is just a commercial. And of course, all commercials seem nice/entertaining/interesting/funny/etc.
Any time you have a factory tour, you WILL have this kind of positive coverage by the host. Just the cost of doing business. Look through the host's implied bias to see the silent workers and machines.
wow... and ladies and gentlemen... THIS is why the western world will always bow down to the East for manufacturing.... because they chose to give the farm away.
You people always find something to get offended and point the finger. Nowhere did I mention the whole East vs West thing. Go talk about that in your own comments. I just respect their hard work, regardless of where they are from. Same goes for millions of people working in factories in the western world.
You'd be surprised. I'm someone who generally goes nuts pretty quickly doing boring things, but I worked as a spring maker for some time, and it was actually very zen and meditative. It really wasn't that bad.
Just ordered my oneplus 6 yesterday. Really reassuring knowing that their phones go through such extensive QC testing. Hope my phone lasts a long time. Amazing video Linus!!
Word of warning, don't drop your phone on the volume rocker edge as a design issue shatters the back screen ( mine and hundreds of other OnePlus 6 owners have the same problem with back panel cracks around the volume rocker area 😠
These “behind the scenes” type of videos makes one really appreciate the technology more because you see that there are real humans building them and the pull-outs from Serie gets tested hard.
You know, After watching just few episodes of LTT, I'm sure he dropped at least one - and if he could not do that, because of some tail they have there all the time, he just dropped random phone on the street, when he left. He could not resis. Just look in his eyes;]!
People can disconnect from the mundane task, the body does the robotic job over and over but the mind is elsewhere, at least i hope some can do that, how else would you be able to work decades like this.
Security at factory door: Mr Linus, what is this phone doing in your pocket? Red faced Linus: Errr, I was balancing it on my head and err... it must have *dropped* into this pocket. Camera man: Happens everytime he visits a shop or factory.
I work in a factory so I can appreciate what goes into making anything be it food, phone, cars or other. There's so much that goes into getting quality products to the customers. Love these types of videos.
BuyingOGNames not every chemicals is bad. If you hate food factory for thescientific advances on the last decades, your have a few options: quit eating, or go back to the caves and eat rotten food
In part, they do it because they have to work and earn a living... although we usually make jokes and say they are slaves, they are not, and they chose to work there. There are far worse jobs out there.
First job I ever had was in a factory, the show we put on when 'VIP' came around was great. The rest of the time it was stick it together and ship it out as fast as you can.
I work in a industrial bakery and we do the same thing when the big hanchos come around. The rest of the time none of the line operators have a fuckin clue whats going on and we constantly throw out metric tonnes of food waste in an 8 hour shift.
Thing is, people actually *do* expect their new flagship phones to work and look flawless, so good quality control is essential. Anything else is a waste of time and money for the company.I've done an internship at a company that makes piston rings once, and they, too, have extremely high quality control standards, because they really don't want complaints that a bad piston ring is what killed the engine in a five- or six-figure car.They'd rather throw out a dozen that might have never been a problem than ship one that ends up being a killer. Literally, even, in the worst case scenario.

I wonder how Oneplus makes revenue by making the phone cheaper than other flagships such as Samsung S9/S9+ or the iPhone X, despite having the features and quality of these flagships. Is it due to cheaper parts and labor? Or are companies like Apple and Samsung just simply charging more for their phones?
If I didn't have to get a phone just the other month, I would have held out for this, especially after seeing this video. I mean yeah, samsung probably performs the same tests, but I have't seen a video to prove it. These are the types of ads (per se) that work for me!
My iPhone 6 had so many problems it was nuts. The screen cracked a ton which happens so I let it go. The battery would die at 75% everytime so I had to have a case as my battery. Then the wifi antenna went to shit completely and I could be within a meter of the router and have poor connectivity. Then I sold it and bought a cheap Galaxy as a replacement and two-three years later still have it and have no real complaints.
Dont worry....The drop and stress tests are just for design verifications and random quality sampling. They don't drop the production units shipped to customers. I didn't expect this China company to do such extensive testings.
Introducing Crack (TM). With crack, your iPhone will be covered by 3D texture of random lines for a even more beautiful design. Note: the crak feature may reduce the chassis durability and resistance to impacts.
That's why one shouldn't generalize everything made in China, or any other country for that matter. Sure there are shoddy products, and there are great products. Same goes for everywhere on the planet.
I love seeing the manufacturing and QA processes, as I spent ten years in the field, so thank you for taking the time to put this together in fairly strong detail - well done! Linus, next time you're in China, please learn how to say "excuse me", "please" and "thank you" in either Cantonese or Mandarin. Its respectful to the locals and the companies will love you for showing some basic courtesy and good manners. I hate to nitpick, but I cringed at a couple of points in the video.
I'm not Chinese but I noticed the cringe points in this video too. Linus uses American style humor. I want to point out that Linus wasn't making fun of that guy with socks and sandals. Socks and sandals are what Linus loves to wear.
Becareful some users have reported the battery catching fire after getting dropped on the edge and squishing one of the batterys essential cable Nah I'm messin with ya 😂😂
Wow! No other words can convey the feelings surrounding watching this video. The level of testing these phones go through is quite impressive. All phones should be this Precise. I really enjoyed watching this video. I love watching behind the scenes videos. It helps to put things into perspective, for these devices that can be taken for granted just riding around our pockets. Thanks Linus for this and thanks to OnePlus for allowing all of us a peek into their process.
I bought a OnePlus One back in early 2015 shortly after watching a review of it by Barnacules. I had recently read an article about how different the phone industries were in the rest of the world from the US. Combining the two and hearing about a limited sale (64gb OPO for $175) I bought it. After some shipping issues, I got it. It took me a while to get used to the phone. I was going from iP4s to Android (CyanogenMod). The rest of my family all uses iOS and I will never go back. OPO is the best cell phone I've had and I say that mostly in terms of longevity. I ordered it with the optional additional screen protector. It was rather easy to install (my first). The screen protector has been the only fatality. I was one of those people that put the phone in my back pocket, usually didn't sit on it. But one day i pulled my phone out to see what looked like a cracked screen. Thankfully it was just the additional layer. A couple years have gone by since that and I rarely use a case (headphone jack clearance). It's slowed down a bit, has to be rebooted at least once a week but it's still good. I still own every cellphone I've ever owned dating back to 2000. I've never used a phone nearly this long. I'm going on 3.5 years and it could be 4 for this one. This is my first "flagship" phone. I like the idea of buying a high quality/featured phone, now, as their technology provides quite a bit of future proofing (upgrade savings). As we approach the next network generations I'll be look at OnePlus again for my next phone.
MindCrime Good to go.. I've bought & used all the oneplus variants except OP5T.. The new OP6 is fluid as it could be.. Great stuff 😎 and this video tells why it's awesome 👍
I used my Galaxy Note 2 for 4,5 years. Never a hardware failure whatsoever. Never replaced the battery, still give me 3 hrs SOT the last day I use it. Changed to OnePlus3T because the Note 2 became slow, which is understandable because softwares/apps demand more processing power overtime. My Galaxy Note 2 is the record holder so far, followed by my HTC Desire (2 years, top speaker failure once) and this OP3T at 1 year 6 months (no failure, yet).
My OPO just died. It started to reboot until at one point it refuses to turn on or even charge at all. I liked the phone but the audio quality was for whatever reason overboosted the high end stuff, very annoying. The OP3 sounds way better (which yeah what I got to replace it.) Still prefer a front facing sensor though.
You might want to look into rooting and installing custom roms for it, then it'll probably last another year or two until the battery is basically dead or it can't support modern software well enough.
this is my new favorite video from linus. its always cool to see inside some of the major manufacturers assembly and testing labs. oneplus looks like a transparent company to me, the consumer and that is what we need to see more of.
Search that squeaky voiced character is one of the best RUclipsrs out there Also of course Apple won't let any RUclipsr tour their factorys Apple wants to maintain secrecy about the inner workings of an iPhone Because they want you to think that it's magic
ryan seguira They don't manufacture their own Pixel phones, however. For instance, the Pixel 2 XL is manufactured by LG. The first units really lacked quality control.
And how would you even know? Which other electronic company has publicly revealed to have this amount of manpower, machinery and other resources committed to every single phones quality control? OnePlus is clearly trying to show how they stand out from competitors in this area, by welcoming visitors such as Linus here to visit. I have seen many ads of electronic companies claiming they have good quality control, but none of them have proven they have the extensive and meticulous process like OnePlus.
good job. even though apple can sometimes make good products for a reasonable price (pfttt rarely) you will save tons of money buying other stuff. although they make pretty decent products (like 55% of the time) if you buy them. coming from a samsung fan
These poor people are doing this job as this small white man talks a foreign language to a device behind the workers and points at the items they touch as they were told by their boss not to pay attention
Ya honestly it kind of made me cringe imagining if some hyperactive stranger came in my office pointing at all the things im doing yelling into a camera in a strange language after my boss told me I had to not pay attention because it would make the company look bad and would slow down my pace.. I'd personally really really hate that.. ugh itd be even worse if my coworkers were right next to me trying to do the same thing, why not have it be even a bit more awkward?
Such a fun video. Like How It's Made, Linus style. Very cool. Watching from a 6t where they probably streamlined this process even better for my phone :)
This was very interesting. I thought that production itself is more automated, but I guess it would be too hard to achieve considering how often new models are released (and all machines have to be changed / reprogrammed / recalibrated for each new model). I must say I'm quite impressed by the level of testing (and this is coming from a guy who used to work as a production tester designer).
Thank You, Linus, This Video was very enjoyable to watch, I really hope you could get more of these made in the future. Maybe a motherboard, or video card, or even a PSU manufacture could be done.
I purchased a one plus 6 because I needed to replace my old phone. When you consider Priced, Quality and Features it seemed like an amazing deal compared to their competitors like Iphone and Samsung. And It was, the phone held up in every way, and it just looks better, it feels better to use and it honestly runs better than my wifes Galaxy S9+ it runs considerably better.
This is a commercial that works for me 100%

13:50 I wouldn't be that enthusiastic Linus, that machine will steal your job.
bladudemovies it probably should steal this type of jobs so you can work harder on educate yourself and find a better job
Yeah, Apple obviously doesn't do those drop tests.
Nah, it's just their business formula to squeeze your pocket. I rather have Google Pixel/Samsung/OP/LG/Nokia even XiaoMi than iPhone.

Only towards the workers in those factories!
Trying to make them phones Linus proof
12:46 "Out of my way.. I'm a professional."
As someone who has worked in smaller scale manufacturing, this is impressive to watch. So many custom rigs and fixtures...
I love me some custom fixtures
13:34 hey look! A mechanical Linus!
cuz he drops his shit all the time?? :D
Exactly lol. I mean, he even put the darn phone on his head lol
A mechanical ass....
And yet you're here.
C'est la vie!
I've been thinking about ordering the OnePlus 6....i think I'm convinced. Great video
No wait the onplus 6t is on its way very soon
"Drop from 1.8 m" *Linus puts it on the head and is only 1.67 m*
Fantastic quality control, I usually feel uneasy about Chinese (from Chinese companies) products, but not anymore with One+

That's why one shouldn't generalize everything made in China, or any other country for that matter. Sure there are shoddy products, and there are great products. Same goes for everywhere on the planet.
Rocking my op5 like it's day one. These things hold and kick ass 24/7
Plot Twist: Linus gets employed to drop test them
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love seeing the manufacturing and QA processes, as I spent ten years in the field, so thank you for taking the time to put this together in fairly strong detail - well done!
Linus, next time you're in China, please learn how to say "excuse me", "please" and "thank you" in either Cantonese or Mandarin. Its respectful to the locals and the companies will love you for showing some basic courtesy and good manners. I hate to nitpick, but I cringed at a couple of points in the video.
Does it look like the workers actually cared?
I'm not Chinese but I noticed the cringe points in this video too. Linus uses American style humor. I want to point out that Linus wasn't making fun of that guy with socks and sandals. Socks and sandals are what Linus loves to wear.
Colgate Advanced White ? This isn’t being about being a SJW, it’s just being polite and having basic manners?

Linus attempts to hit puberty once again
tried to hide it haha.
... but puberty hit him back.
Why they using all those bots for drop tests... Master dropper linus is in the house for dropping out loud :p
Arun Kumar P - He seems to like dropping things.. I think he would volunteer!
Such a good video! Definitely one of my favorites in a while.
HA HA HA HA!! I guarantee Apple has never done a drop test on anything harder than a marshmallow.
they do, but they only accept 95% screen crash rate.
Apple products are not designed to be dropped by the end user ..
Lol kekov: Yeah. its called motorola. or anything that runs android...
F!@#Guilt I mean I’ve dropped my iPhone from 2-4 meters atleast 40 times.
It better don't break mainly,even it falls and breaks the front screen it even works perfect 👌 !!
just got my oneplus 7 pro yesterday i fkin love it

Wow! No other words can convey the feelings surrounding watching this video. The level of testing these phones go through is quite impressive. All phones should be this Precise. I really enjoyed watching this video. I love watching behind the scenes videos. It helps to put things into perspective, for these devices that can be taken for granted just riding around our pockets. Thanks Linus for this and thanks to OnePlus for allowing all of us a peek into their process.
Lol okay oneplus bot.
Greenmonkey552 Ha!! beep...beep
Lol every major brand does that.
haha low quality
watching on my OnePlus.... awesome video, Linus!
14:09 I wasn't expecting him to take it back out
If this is made in US or Canada, no one can afford this phone... Thank you China.
But they are
Aotuman X your right 👍🏼
Felix T iphone also Made in China,if Made in USA no one can buy it
Felix T then why iPhone cannot be afford?
@@johnweak6788 first GG grammar
Second, did you even understood the comment?
Apple quality check after assembly: Station 1: Is the screen cracked? No. Okay, quality check done. Ship to customer.
Basti Lift Samsung quality control: is it a iPhone? Nope, pass
I had seen several new iPhone 5 back, top or bottom glass chipped off out from the box when I was working in a phone retail shop...
Samsung's quality check *"Does it catch on fire or explode?"*
"Yes"
*"Pass"*
I bought a OnePlus One back in early 2015 shortly after watching a review of it by Barnacules. I had recently read an article about how different the phone industries were in the rest of the world from the US. Combining the two and hearing about a limited sale (64gb OPO for $175) I bought it.
After some shipping issues, I got it. It took me a while to get used to the phone. I was going from iP4s to Android (CyanogenMod). The rest of my family all uses iOS and I will never go back. OPO is the best cell phone I've had and I say that mostly in terms of longevity. I ordered it with the optional additional screen protector. It was rather easy to install (my first).
The screen protector has been the only fatality. I was one of those people that put the phone in my back pocket, usually didn't sit on it. But one day i pulled my phone out to see what looked like a cracked screen. Thankfully it was just the additional layer. A couple years have gone by since that and I rarely use a case (headphone jack clearance).
It's slowed down a bit, has to be rebooted at least once a week but it's still good. I still own every cellphone I've ever owned dating back to 2000. I've never used a phone nearly this long. I'm going on 3.5 years and it could be 4 for this one. This is my first "flagship" phone. I like the idea of buying a high quality/featured phone, now, as their technology provides quite a bit of future proofing (upgrade savings). As we approach the next network generations I'll be look at OnePlus again for my next phone.
MindCrime Good to go.. I've bought & used all the oneplus variants except OP5T.. The new OP6 is fluid as it could be.. Great stuff 😎 and this video tells why it's awesome 👍
I used my Galaxy Note 2 for 4,5 years. Never a hardware failure whatsoever. Never replaced the battery, still give me 3 hrs SOT the last day I use it.
Changed to OnePlus3T because the Note 2 became slow, which is understandable because softwares/apps demand more processing power overtime.
My Galaxy Note 2 is the record holder so far, followed by my HTC Desire (2 years, top speaker failure once) and this OP3T at 1 year 6 months (no failure, yet).
Opo was legendary
My OPO just died. It started to reboot until at one point it refuses to turn on or even charge at all. I liked the phone but the audio quality was for whatever reason overboosted the high end stuff, very annoying. The OP3 sounds way better (which yeah what I got to replace it.)
Still prefer a front facing sensor though.
You might want to look into rooting and installing custom roms for it, then it'll probably last another year or two until the battery is basically dead or it can't support modern software well enough.
this is my new favorite video from linus. its always cool to see inside some of the major manufacturers assembly and testing labs. oneplus looks like a transparent company to me, the consumer and that is what we need to see more of.
Yeah - Transparently in Golden Sample Potemkin Mode...
7:56 a Canadian, in China, speaking Spanish. DIVERSITY
jsdb Everything is bueno
"It's actually kind of cathartic to watch."
Linus is a sadist confirmed.
Bcz it should be his daily job.
Zack would be dissappointed, the battery is again not a red colour piece
Under rated comment spotted.
But he'll be happy the camera module is
Amitabh Srivastava *tech lover of the inside spotted* much love homie
Techandtrains101 yeah, hopefully
and why Samsung didn't test Galaxy Note 7 battery and charging ? JUST why
cause apple didn't do that since samsung is copying some details from apple
Because they didn't want to build all the phones again lol
They probably did. But now the testing is way more rigorous to ensure it wont happen again
Cost cutting since they are so cheap
@@divyamdembla ah classic ignorance
Next factory visit, Apple in China! That would be an interesting episode!
Jayson Dilao lol
That will be harder than get into the White House dude
Why The Hell would Apple Let This #SqueakyAzzVoice Character Tour Their Production Facility????
Search that squeaky voiced character is one of the best RUclipsrs out there
Also of course Apple won't let any RUclipsr tour their factorys Apple wants to maintain secrecy about the inner workings of an iPhone
Because they want you to think that it's magic
Apple is Pretty Dam Impressive, I must Say....
That's why there were fingerprints all over my new phone... 🤔🤔
-I'll take it
Mesha Davis better than getting a defective phone.
SAL3M definitely
Every fingerprints shows even more love
You probably got scammed.
Second Dark Someone forgot their gloves lol
After seeing this video... I'd love to see OnePlus make a Pixel phone with Google
well to bad google want to be stand alone phone brand now lol
ryan seguira
They don't manufacture their own Pixel phones, however. For instance, the Pixel 2 XL is manufactured by LG. The first units really lacked quality control.
Stand Alone Phone Brand.. you won't see them do like Huawei Nexus 6P right? Just Google Pixel. that's what i mean lol
ryan seguira
Got'cha. Yeah, it takes out a some of the incentive to manufacture for them.
LG has the same (if not better) QC process. Still, potential issues can occur. This process does not necessarily ensure the perfect QC.
13:33 Linus never took out that phone, he put in the pocket. *HMMMMMMM*
Goodness me, That's amazing!!! Who want's to start a smartphone company and set all these systems up????
INSANE!!!! totally amazed!
Is it? 🇵🇸
OnePlus has my respect.
you must be easily impressed then, this is standard procedure for all major electronics maker
Bryton Massie ?
You must be pretty gullible.
And how would you even know? Which other electronic company has publicly revealed to have this amount of manpower, machinery and other resources committed to every single phones quality control? OnePlus is clearly trying to show how they stand out from competitors in this area, by welcoming visitors such as Linus here to visit. I have seen many ads of electronic companies claiming they have good quality control, but none of them have proven they have the extensive and meticulous process like OnePlus.
Sweatshop
Nice vid Linus! Just got my self oneplus 6 after almost 10 years of being a apple user. Couldnt be happier.
Congratz buddy. welcome to the light.
Great move man..great move !
Stick with it for 3, 4 years and get your kidney back
Why didn't you wait until the OnePlus 6T? Did you not want it or not know about it, I'm curious!
good job. even though apple can sometimes make good products for a reasonable price (pfttt rarely) you will save tons of money buying other stuff. although they make pretty decent products (like 55% of the time) if you buy them. coming from a samsung fan
If invited into oneplus factory ..
Me: Grabs many defect oneplus phone and sells it at ebay for lower prices
*Ebay Bargainers Intesifies*
stonks
So many people making just 1 phone and one guy called JRE will rip it apart in minutes. "JerryRigEverything".
VERSATILE KNOWLEDGE I searched in the comments for this one 😂😂
You got that right..Jerry will test it to the limit..😂👍
His channel irks me. Yeah, of course a phone will fucking snap in half if you break it over your knee.
For a second, I thought you were talking about Java Runtime Environment. :D :P
These poor people are doing this job as this small white man talks a foreign language to a device behind the workers and points at the items they touch as they were told by their boss not to pay attention
Sir Antler lol exactly my thoughts
well his jacket does say V.I.P
Ya honestly it kind of made me cringe imagining if some hyperactive stranger came in my office pointing at all the things im doing yelling into a camera in a strange language after my boss told me I had to not pay attention because it would make the company look bad and would slow down my pace.. I'd personally really really hate that.. ugh itd be even worse if my coworkers were right next to me trying to do the same thing, why not have it be even a bit more awkward?
I would laugh, not cringe in that scenario.
They probably give tours all the time. I work in manufacturing and they always having tours.
Too bad the iMac Pro wouldn't pass these tests
cicada not that they would allow anyone to film in their factory

Wait wouldnt any apple product fail any of these tests?
Such a fun video. Like How It's Made, Linus style. Very cool. Watching from a 6t where they probably streamlined this process even better for my phone :)
I'd buy a OnePlus rather than an iPhone any day
WHoa!! That statement totally changed my mind about iPhones!!!

It's pretty bad when I'm less worried about the phone falling off his head than I am of it falling out of his hand...
7:42 lol LTT at its best.
13:23 too. 😜
This was very interesting. I thought that production itself is more automated, but I guess it would be too hard to achieve considering how often new models are released (and all machines have to be changed / reprogrammed / recalibrated for each new model). I must say I'm quite impressed by the level of testing (and this is coming from a guy who used to work as a production tester designer).
5:10 The blood station.
That is tape= =！
Yessir! Duct tape works well in a pinch as well.
xDD
not a blood
not a blood?
This is legit my favorite video of yours! I might be a little biased, though, being a manufacturing engineer AND OnePlus fan!
Thank You, Linus, This Video was very enjoyable to watch, I really hope you could get more of these made in the future. Maybe a motherboard, or video card, or even a PSU manufacture could be done.
I purchased a one plus 6 because I needed to replace my old phone. When you consider Priced, Quality and Features it seemed like an amazing deal compared to their competitors like Iphone and Samsung.
And
It was, the phone held up in every way, and it just looks better, it feels better to use and it honestly runs better than my wifes Galaxy S9+ it runs considerably better.
13:27 - Shots fired. It was a short target, but I can confirm a hit.
AlphaPT short target 😂😂
How many phones you stole there? 😉😂

every like is a steal
And still make garbage...
