I switched recently from iphone to an Android (oppo find 7a in fact) and am really happy to say the experience has been great. What wasn't mentioned in this video is that the Oppo find 7a also has long exposure (up to 30 seconds) which is what I've always been waiting for on a phone camera to take night scenes on a tripod. Beautiful and really elegantly implemented. Also the 4k video works flawlessly - and we are able to collect 4k footage to use on our broadcast productions! The ability to expand memory is really useful too - micro SD is cheap and it's just nice to know that if I fill up my 64GB micro SD card I can swap out another one or change to 128GB without buying a new phone... I guess these sorts of features were unknown to me in the Apple ecosystem and now I really appreciate Android for what it allows me to do. I still like many Apple products - it's really nice to have very good competition amongst companies - great for us!
Taylor how could you forget to mention the price discrepancy? The unlocked 128GB iPhone 6 Plus is $949 plus tax! The Find 7A is $499 and the Find 7 is $599 with no tax...for $150 more than what the iPhone 6 Plus costs you can own both versions of the Find 7. That's a huge omission Taylor.
I own both Oppo and iPhone Oppo Find 7a - screaming power Antutu Bench highest i've seen iPhone - slower but fast enough for approved apps, gives better battery power Oppo - flexible memory, up to 128 GB that you buy yourself - you are in control iPhone - stuck at what you purchase and adding 64 GB is way more expensive than microSD chips Oppo battery - spare 3000mah battery cost $24.00, replacement in 30 seconds. battery life 2 days running the firmware from November 2014. Has rapid charge (awesome). I also have rapid charger for my car lighter plug. iPhone battery... don't ask (and don't ask about a memory chip either) replacement cost so much most people just replace the phone (that's what Apple wants you to do - sheep). Chassis - both phones have a very solid metal chassis Oppo has Maxx Audio, iPhone doesn't but still sounds great Screen - sorry but the Oppo screen is better - the reviewer here was flat wrong. Accurate color is more important than "vibrant" and the Oppo is very bright, i think he didn't turn it up all the way. Camera - both good, Oppo more flexible, with RAW and ISO and selfie flip and 50 MP Ultra HD Oppo front-facing camera is 5 MP - very nice! (check out the new Oppo N3) Both cameras are poor in dark conditions - could both use Xenon flash :-) Fingerprint - Apple has two versions - Oppo doesn't have one on this phone but their N3 is 10 times better than the iPhone, because you can use the fingerprint reader pad as a scroll and tap pad (and assign different functions to different fingerprints!!). Remote control - Oppo has the O-click device (sweet). iPhone - don't know...maybe somebody makes something, but I'm not sure Notification LED - Oppo nailed that, but it is only a single color (blue) - N3 is rumoured to multi-colored. Oppo also has function built in to help make the large phone more usable for single hand use (reviewer didn't know that, I guess). Cost - iPhone 6 + configured to match my Oppo was over $800.00 off plan. Oppo was $500.00 and I have had mine 9 months now. obviously, this was an Apples to Oranges comparison. A new phone to a 9 month old phone that is still top of the line. The next comparison should be to the Oppo N3 (slam!)
I'm pretty upset about that. What really grinds my gears is all of these apologiest and product defenders pointing fingers at the consumers for buy faulty. It's a great phone, but it might as well be covered foil.
Hehe. Now that's a first. Innovative. Curves to your bodies shape. In all seriousness apple need to sort this, somehow, but how? I don't see them recalling 5 million i6's
Find 7a on Color OS? Try loading a Find 7 with CM 11 and then compare the 2, even with the few bugs still being worked on by +CyanogenMod, you'll find the Find 7 superior to the iPhone. Best thing, the iPhone is practically only available through a 2 year contract, while the Find 7 will cost you $599, and that's tax and shipping to the US included.
you should do it, it's a great device to use, I'm on the opposite side I've been using iOS since the iPhone 4s and now that the iPhone is big like every phone I will try android maybe nexus 6 or htc one m9
Jake Wrigley add to that issue, the easily shattered screen due to round glass on the edges and that popping camera gets cracked when the phone falls on the back. lol
Battery life on my Find 7a was horrendous. It could have been the version of (stock) software I was on, but I was lucky if I could make it through a normal work day.
Should have compared 6+ with the Find 7 not the 7a. Definitely find 7 beats the 6+ right from the display,camera,VOOC charging,expandable storage to the price differences!! Compare the Apples with the Find 9...apple would be a scrap infront of it!
The real only problem is the price : 800€/1100€ for Iphone VS 400€ (and only 300€ for is brother is OnePlus One). Sorry but Oppo is 2x less exensive, that why the Oppo is a better deal.
I purchased an OPPO 7A because my wife wanted to take my Galaxy S5. I needed a phone in a hurry so I just went out to the mall and got something to hold me over until the S6 edge came available, Well I have to say I have never been so impressed with a phone as I was with the 7A. I was pleasantly surprised to find out all the great features this (very reasonably priced) phone has. The speakers are larger, and there is also two of them, instead of the one on the S5, (sound is noticeably better as well). The Camera has a 50MP in HD mode! A removable 3000ma. hr. battery, with quick charge capabilities, and a substantial charger that came with it. I have to say that the OPPO is head and shoulders above the S5 (Samsung's flagship at the time I bought it). All in all one of the best purchases I have made. Never mind the 6 Edge I'm waiting for the OPPO 9 to hit the market! 64GB standard and 6GB RAM! SD up to 128, Don't have the specs on it yet, but they are talking about the very best processor available with even a quicker and improved charger,(only 15 min. for a full charge.)
I have an Oppo Find 7a since July. I personally find this comparison a no-brainer. Apple's 6+ has only a slight edge on the camera (but can't yield 50MP images) and on the battery life (but doesn't have fast charging), and packs a different app ecosystem (with its pros and cons.) Oppo's 7a, on the other hand has a huge edge on battery charging (I literally had my phone at 7% battery 2 days ago in the early morning, forgot to plug it in to charge during the night... in 10-15 minutes of charging while I showered I jump-started it to 55%, which lasted my whole day without a problem. That is a huge plus you don't get with Apple), and the price, oh the price. I bought mine for $400, which is pretty much HALF the price of the 6+. At this point all those millions of people buying Apple's phones are just buying the name of the brand, it's not anymore about the actual product. It's a brainwashing of sorts, if you think of it. Of course, everyone has a right to buy whatever they prefer, but if they actually LOOKED at the other options dispassionately, I am quite sure many of those 10 million people buying 6 & 6+ would have to come to the conclusion that the 7a or even the One Plus One carry much more bang for the buck...
I love my g3. What do you at Pocketnow think about the iPhone problem recently unearthed. The hardware warps in pockets. Spending an upwards of $500 for a cellular device with a flaw this incredible seems unreasonable to me.
It's the beginning of the end for iPhones.They now starting to adapt their products to their rivals, the time of the iPhone dominance is over. I think they should start really quickly to offer third party phone manufacturers the ability to build devices on top of iOS, so the potential of the software and the vast offering of apps can spread.
The only reason people buy iPhones is because there is no fragmentation, so if Apple did that, they would destroy the whole great ecosystem that they build. The biggest reason I don't like Android is because of the fragmentation, which is the source of all the frustrating problems. If Google would be the only one to create Android phones, then Android would be optimized for the hardware and work great. Also, app developers could focus on only one device. I would rather wait 10 years to get a new feature on the iPhone, then enter into the horribly fragmented Android world. Other then fragmentation, I have nothing against Android, but this is a HUGE issue for me and for others, so saying this is the end of the iPhones is a great stretch of the imagination.
Andrei-Lucian Șerb You're absolutely right in a few points, and yes, I'm totally willing to accept your concerning that what I've written *'is a great stretch of imagination'*. In my imagination Apple is doing the same stuff every 2 to 3 years again and again and again... *and in 10 years* the rivaling companies have outrun all of what apple could possibly do in terms of product innovation. The whole smartphone market is and will be about who has the bigger balls, display, processor, camera or whatever. *Diversification* (the Android strategy) is the essence of technological progress in this particular market and in fact of every form of progress. That means more fails and more wins, because there ARE more opportunities with various manufacturers. If you think in short time periods, Apples concept is in deed very successful and reasonable. But maybe you're abled to think more than 3 years into the future and you'll start to understand my whole point. Thanks.
BT on the iphone is useless, as u can't use it for normal BT transfer, like "native file transfer", also the Find 7a is the slower brother of the Find 7, and on top of that, there is no mention of "Bending"...
I find it remarkably funny that most people commenting on this video don't have an iPhone 6+. I've had my iPhone 6+ 128gb for about two weeks now and I can say that it has not bent at all. I constantly get remarks about how my phone can bend and I have to constantly remind people that I can buy at least three of their phones with my one phone.
What always surprises me is that many Iphone comparisons often don't mention the price difference. Now I know I might just be really poor, but to me the difference in Price (often higher on Iphones) should make a greater impact on any judgement. I don't know the Oppo but I think it would definitely be the better choice if it's say 2 to 300 dollars/euro's cheaper. Just my opinion.
Find me an app that I can make music with on android that's even close to as good as nanostudio or beatmaker 2. Find me a movie editing app on android as good as iMovie. Find me a Better Twitter client on android than tweetbot. Fenix is really good but tweetnot is still better. I could go on forever baby (home alone 2 reference haha).
The line with baby was from home alone 2 (I love that movie). And you say not everyone needs the same type of apps as Me? Well I could say the opposite and say that even though the official Twitter client works for you, tweetbot is still better. And what about iOS only apps that are amazing like paper? I know it's only opinion as to which OS has better apps but show a random non techy geek person the same app on iOS and android and ask which one they think is better and I bet 9/10 will choose the iOS one.
the thing that is so amazing is that people once again are giving Apple a pass, saying that you just have to be careful and saying that any phone can bend, now I know for sure Apple fans are brainwashed. I remember (because I am a long time Nokia user), that if Nokia even thought about slipping up, the wall of criticism would collapse on top of Nokia. But what ever people find to hate about Nokia, NONE of their phones would ever bend. They work perfectly even after 10 years after release. Which means that Nokia build quality is the best, Apple just has beautiful designs. The Lumia 1520 and 1320 has been out for a year but they never bent. in fact, can anyone ever remember any phone bending before the iPhone. Even as thing and brittle feeling as the Galaxy Line is, never heard of bending. Screens might break but no bending. But back to Nokia, they weigh more for a reason, so they don't bend or break, no matter the size.
Odd to say it's the more polished phone when he also says the significant new additions of third party keyboards and sharing could be more polished. Taylor does have this habit of contradicting himself.
why dont you compare iPhone6plus with oppo's find7 (!not find7A!)??? mine is just awesome. 2k display, amasing camera(crystal clear pictures and 4k video),loud speakers with clear sound, 3GB ram,32GB internal memory and 4core snapdragon processor clocked on 2,5 GHz.
Still, phones like the HTC M8 or LG G3 while being a little smaller, propose a better overall experience than both contestant here. The One M8 offers 2 possibilities of OS, have a great UI simple and smart, the camera does the job the speakers are wonderful and it's screen is among the best. The G3 offert a great camera (though lacking a little in low light) , wonderful almost absent bezel for it's big beauty-screen and proposes an all-tweakable UI. And most of all, their design are GREAT. I trully think that this Iphone is not this pretty, specially when i look at the 5s for exemple. I also was trully suprised by the overall quality of the Nokia lumia 930/Icon this year, or the quality of low priced phones like Oneplus One or Xiaomi's. Still, the year is not finished and many phones are coming in near future. I look at the Note 4 (edge or not), the Blackberry passport(for it's concept) and obviously the next Nexus.
Can't help but feel that the 6 plus lacks some of the top notch build quality that apple has done so well in the past. Comparatively to other phones of similar screen size.
You guys should've asked Anton to send the Find 7 to Taylor for review. Also, I don't think anyone will cross-shop a relatively budget, relatively high spec Android phone with the top of the line Apple phone.
In this community,there's 2 major type of people;Apple fanboys/girls and Samsung fanboys/girls. The ones who r usually criticizing I phones are the Samsung fans,while the one who criticize the rest of android phones are both Samsung &apple fans. However,the ones usually criticizing Samsung are the android community.
Just wanna point out that if you don't like Color OS you can always just mod it to be Kitkat :) I don't really see a huge problem, i like the Color OS features :D
Look at Oppo Find 7's little baby sister (Oppo Find 7a) giving Iphone 6 Plus a run for it's money!!! I'm not sure if he is trying to shame the Iphone 6 Plus or may be he is trying to make it look better by sizing it up against Oppo Find 7's little sister....Two thumps down
You forgot the fact that the iphone stay at almost the same price while oppo, lg, 1+.... Prices go down alot and that the main reason i sold my lg g3 for an iphone 6 plus i bought the g3 for 750$ but now it is sold for 300$ new
So reading the comments below I can only say this: 1. iPhone has a better camera (although lower resolution, it SOMEHOW manages to bring more detail and dynamics to the photos taken with its 8 mpx) 2. iPhone has a better battery (nearly two days) 3. iPhone single core processor is double than Oppo's and is even higher on multi processor score. So how in God's name is Oppo the better phone? P.S. someone said that iPhone hardware already existed in android phones for a long time. Quick reminder, why would you put a quad core processor in a phone that is already optimized and works like a charm with a mere dual core? Just to nom nom the battery? Why would you put a 100 mpx camera when you can optimize an 8 mpx camera to be even better? Big numbers = shit if they're not optimized for the particular software. Just saying.
I really don't understand why you would choose to not compare the iPhone 6 plus to the Oppo Find 7 instead of the Find 7a.. The Find 7 is still a much cheaper phone than the iPhone, and it's even better than the Find 7a... I would love to hear something about what thoughts are behind that choice and why you only mention the Find 7 when you are talking about the Skyline Notification, and beside that not once mention that Oppo have an even better phone than the Find 7a on the market...
Did they called it "Find 7a" to make it sound like "5 7 8" when you pronounce it on purpose? Each time he mentions it to me it sound like 578. That's cool!
I swear almost every phone of the same screen size and/or a tiny bit bigger like the note 3 has a smaller footprint than the new iPhone. And jeez has anyone seen the articles about the iphone 6 bending in people's pockets? I laugh at them people
I switched recently from iphone to an Android (oppo find 7a in fact) and am really happy to say the experience has been great. What wasn't mentioned in this video is that the Oppo find 7a also has long exposure (up to 30 seconds) which is what I've always been waiting for on a phone camera to take night scenes on a tripod. Beautiful and really elegantly implemented. Also the 4k video works flawlessly - and we are able to collect 4k footage to use on our broadcast productions! The ability to expand memory is really useful too - micro SD is cheap and it's just nice to know that if I fill up my 64GB micro SD card I can swap out another one or change to 128GB without buying a new phone... I guess these sorts of features were unknown to me in the Apple ecosystem and now I really appreciate Android for what it allows me to do. I still like many Apple products - it's really nice to have very good competition amongst companies - great for us!
Taylor how could you forget to mention the price discrepancy? The unlocked 128GB iPhone 6 Plus is $949 plus tax! The Find 7A is $499 and the Find 7 is $599 with no tax...for $150 more than what the iPhone 6 Plus costs you can own both versions of the Find 7. That's a huge omission Taylor.
I find it funny that given the vastly different specifications they both perform roughly the same in benchmarks!
Love to see review on phones with comparison qi wireless charging, great job on your reviews
what is the Background Music?
I own both Oppo and iPhone
Oppo Find 7a - screaming power Antutu Bench highest i've seen
iPhone - slower but fast enough for approved apps, gives better battery power
Oppo - flexible memory, up to 128 GB that you buy yourself - you are in control
iPhone - stuck at what you purchase and adding 64 GB is way more expensive than microSD chips
Oppo battery - spare 3000mah battery cost $24.00, replacement in 30 seconds. battery life 2 days running the firmware from November 2014. Has rapid charge (awesome). I also have rapid charger for my car lighter plug.
iPhone battery... don't ask (and don't ask about a memory chip either) replacement cost so much most people just replace the phone (that's what Apple wants you to do - sheep).
Chassis - both phones have a very solid metal chassis
Oppo has Maxx Audio, iPhone doesn't but still sounds great
Screen - sorry but the Oppo screen is better - the reviewer here was flat wrong. Accurate color is more important than "vibrant" and the Oppo is very bright, i think he didn't turn it up all the way.
Camera - both good, Oppo more flexible, with RAW and ISO and selfie flip and 50 MP Ultra HD
Oppo front-facing camera is 5 MP - very nice! (check out the new Oppo N3)
Both cameras are poor in dark conditions - could both use Xenon flash :-)
Fingerprint - Apple has two versions - Oppo doesn't have one on this phone but their N3 is 10 times better than the iPhone, because you can use the fingerprint reader pad as a scroll and tap pad (and assign different functions to different fingerprints!!).
Remote control - Oppo has the O-click device (sweet). iPhone - don't know...maybe somebody makes something, but I'm not sure
Notification LED - Oppo nailed that, but it is only a single color (blue) - N3 is rumoured to multi-colored.
Oppo also has function built in to help make the large phone more usable for single hand use (reviewer didn't know that, I guess).
Cost - iPhone 6 + configured to match my Oppo was over $800.00 off plan.
Oppo was $500.00 and I have had mine 9 months now.
obviously, this was an Apples to Oranges comparison. A new phone to a 9 month old phone that is still top of the line.
The next comparison should be to the Oppo N3 (slam!)
Can someone give me the links to the wallpapers on both phones at 0:29 ??
"iPhone 6 plus is more polished product."
But... It bends!?
Shut up.
take a look at a test done by Unbox Therapy it's bent easily
I'm pretty upset about that. What really grinds my gears is all of these apologiest and product defenders pointing fingers at the consumers for buy faulty. It's a great phone, but it might as well be covered foil.
aBAE Sengdamalae It doesn't bend "easily" a fully grown man put all his strength into bending a phone and you say it bends "easily"
***** Plastic tends to go back in place, it's kind of obvious.
Hello...No comparison of pricing? Big miss.
Don't forget the iphone6 pocket bend technology.
Hehe. Now that's a first. Innovative. Curves to your bodies shape. In all seriousness apple need to sort this, somehow, but how? I don't see them recalling 5 million i6's
It's one of the thinner flagships on the market...
Too thin. Cameras be sticking out
Find 7a on Color OS? Try loading a Find 7 with CM 11 and then compare the 2, even with the few bugs still being worked on by +CyanogenMod, you'll find the Find 7 superior to the iPhone. Best thing, the iPhone is practically only available through a 2 year contract, while the Find 7 will cost you $599, and that's tax and shipping to the US included.
I actually was thinking about going to the iPhone from android and I have never owned any Apple products and always had android your thoughts?
you should do it, it's a great device to use, I'm on the opposite side I've been using iOS since the iPhone 4s and now that the iPhone is big like every phone I will try android maybe nexus 6 or htc one m9
iPhones are much better now with the increased screen sizes, but I still prefer Android for its variation and customization.
I'd first look up the bending issues of the new Iphones... There have been many reports of the new Iphones bending in people front pockets lmao
Yeah I saw that and I'd be so ill
Jake Wrigley add to that issue, the easily shattered screen due to round glass on the edges and that popping camera gets cracked when the phone falls on the back. lol
Can you do a iPhone 6+ and a Lumia 1520 comparison please
So just wondering where can you get oppo phone in US or Canada (not online)?
Battery life on my Find 7a was horrendous. It could have been the version of (stock) software I was on, but I was lucky if I could make it through a normal work day.
Should have compared 6+ with the Find 7 not the 7a.
Definitely find 7 beats the 6+ right from the display,camera,VOOC charging,expandable storage to the price differences!!
Compare the Apples with the Find 9...apple would be a scrap infront of it!
The real only problem is the price : 800€/1100€ for Iphone VS 400€ (and only 300€ for is brother is OnePlus One).

+Kenneth Russell , on the 7a, what OS is it running on? TIA
"they both feel incredibly solid" with the 6+ has more tendency to BEND in your pocket :D
***** Sure, I am aware of that. I love these guys and their reviews are awesome .. I was just joking about this issue. :)
Nah.. you are just jealous.. enjoy your cheap plastic phone fandroid
Sarah Na Still better than an expensive soda can :P
Why didn't you guys used the Find 7?
What was the song used in the background?
so is there gonna be a video 4 iphone vs every other phone?????
I have an Oppo Find 7a since July. I personally find this comparison a no-brainer.

Are u from The Verge channel?
Watching this on my OPPO find 7a. I have to say I'm very happy with this phone!
Mee too...
I love my g3.
What do you at Pocketnow think about the iPhone problem recently unearthed. The hardware warps in pockets. Spending an upwards of $500 for a cellular device with a flaw this incredible seems unreasonable to me.

I think they should start really quickly to offer third party phone manufacturers the ability to build devices on top of iOS, so the potential of the software and the vast offering of apps can spread.
Yah tell that to the 10,000,000 sold and the 4,000,000 still pr-ordered.
Look at Mac, does it have other brads on OS X, No, so unless Tim Cook is planning to slowly kill that idea, no.
The only reason people buy iPhones is because there is no fragmentation, so if Apple did that, they would destroy the whole great ecosystem that they build. The biggest reason I don't like Android is because of the fragmentation, which is the source of all the frustrating problems.

Andrei-Lucian Șerb You're absolutely right in a few points, and yes, I'm totally willing to accept your concerning that what I've written *'is a great stretch of imagination'*. In my imagination Apple is doing the same stuff every 2 to 3 years again and again and again... *and in 10 years* the rivaling companies have outrun all of what apple could possibly do in terms of product innovation. The whole smartphone market is and will be about who has the bigger balls, display, processor, camera or whatever.
*Diversification* (the Android strategy) is the essence of technological progress in this particular market and in fact of every form of progress.
That means more fails and more wins, because there ARE more opportunities with various manufacturers. If you think in short time periods, Apples concept is in deed very successful and reasonable. But maybe you're abled to think more than 3 years into the future and you'll start to understand my whole point. Thanks.
iPhone 6 and 6+ is the best selling phone Apple have ever had..
im currently still on my Oppo find 7a running Nameless Rom 4.1(android 7.1.2) it's still running strong and insanely fast
What's the better? iPhone 6 plus, Oppo R5 or oppo find 7a??? I am brazillian and go travel for USA ,you can help me,please?!
So why the find 7a? And not the find 7?
BT on the iphone is useless, as u can't use it for normal BT transfer, like "native file transfer", also the Find 7a is the slower brother of the Find 7, and on top of that, there is no mention of "Bending"...
where can I buy and oppo
does anything ever use 802.11 ac anymore?
Please compare the iphone 6 plus vs lumia 1520
I find it remarkably funny that most people commenting on this video don't have an iPhone 6+. I've had my iPhone 6+ 128gb for about two weeks now and I can say that it has not bent at all. I constantly get remarks about how my phone can bend and I have to constantly remind people that I can buy at least three of their phones with my one phone.
But will it b(l)end?
OMFG I WAS JUST ABOUT TO SAY THAT!!!!
Could you do a comparison of iphone 6 plus vs lg g3....
That would be a slaughter, not a comparison.
LOL!
What always surprises me is that many Iphone comparisons often don't mention the price difference. Now I know I might just be really poor, but to me the difference in Price (often higher on Iphones) should make a greater impact on any judgement. I don't know the Oppo but I think it would definitely be the better choice if it's say 2 to 300 dollars/euro's cheaper. Just my opinion.
That song in the background seems familiar...
Great review!
really good fair comparison.... great!
The music you picked wasn't really good background music, it really made it harder to focus on what you were saying.
The Find 7A looks great. But will it bend?
1:56 xperia z2 have notification led
Are they the same prize?
Did I see a HTC one M8 at 1.02 ??
How convenient that everything in apples favor is "virtually unnoticeable."
Background song sounds A LOT like m83 midnight city ...
I cant wait for the Note 4 comparison. It's gonna shit on the plus in every single category
It's gonna rebend the plus back to reality.lol
Bo Vorachack Lol
App quality off the 6+ will always be better.
Find me an app that I can make music with on android that's even close to as good as nanostudio or beatmaker 2. Find me a movie editing app on android as good as iMovie. Find me a Better Twitter client on android than tweetbot. Fenix is really good but tweetnot is still better. I could go on forever baby (home alone 2 reference haha).
The line with baby was from home alone 2 (I love that movie). And you say not everyone needs the same type of apps as
Me? Well I could say the opposite and say that even though the official Twitter client works for you, tweetbot is still better. And what about iOS only apps that are amazing like paper?
I know it's only opinion as to which OS has better apps but show a random non techy geek person the same app on iOS and android and ask which one they think is better and I bet 9/10 will choose the iOS one.
I have the Find 7 but the support from Oppo is extremely bad.. i have a snapdragon 801 phone with 3GB memory and I'm still on 4.3? ridiculous
We get it already. No more iPhone please. I m still waiting for the Mate 7 review!
the thing that is so amazing is that people once again are giving Apple a pass, saying that you just have to be careful and saying that any phone can bend, now I know for sure Apple fans are brainwashed. I remember (because I am a long time Nokia user), that if Nokia even thought about slipping up, the wall of criticism would collapse on top of Nokia.
But what ever people find to hate about Nokia, NONE of their phones would ever bend. They work perfectly even after 10 years after release. Which means that Nokia build quality is the best, Apple just has beautiful designs.
The Lumia 1520 and 1320 has been out for a year but they never bent. in fact, can anyone ever remember any phone bending before the iPhone. Even as thing and brittle feeling as the Galaxy Line is, never heard of bending. Screens might break but no bending.
But back to Nokia, they weigh more for a reason, so they don't bend or break, no matter the size.
You forgot to mention the iphones 1 amp charger takes over 4 hours to charge the phone.
Odd to say it's the more polished phone when he also says the significant new additions of third party keyboards and sharing could be more polished.
Taylor does have this habit of contradicting himself.
I think oppo find 7a is far more better than iphone 6 plus.
if the oppo has nfc. Does it have google wallet as well?
can someone verify
Can't wait to see the bloodbath when you compare the 6+ to the g3!
And the price comparison?
0:29 - We got ourselves a badass! Oh yeah.
OS should not be a factor in rating a phone. It is too bias in direction.
Your reviews and comparisons are top notch Taylor Martin !! Very neutral and fair. Not like the verge. Lol. (Its true). Keep it up my friend.
why dont you compare iPhone6plus with oppo's find7 (!not find7A!)??? mine is just awesome. 2k display, amasing camera(crystal clear pictures and 4k video),loud speakers with clear sound, 3GB ram,32GB internal memory and 4core snapdragon processor clocked on 2,5 GHz.
A. You forgot to mention that the Oppo is half the price. B. #Bendgate
Still, phones like the HTC M8 or LG G3 while being a little smaller, propose a better overall experience than both contestant here.
The One M8 offers 2 possibilities of OS, have a great UI simple and smart, the camera does the job the speakers are wonderful and it's screen is among the best.
The G3 offert a great camera (though lacking a little in low light) , wonderful almost absent bezel for it's big beauty-screen and proposes an all-tweakable UI.
And most of all, their design are GREAT. I trully think that this Iphone is not this pretty, specially when i look at the 5s for exemple.
I also was trully suprised by the overall quality of the Nokia lumia 930/Icon this year, or the quality of low priced phones like Oneplus One or Xiaomi's.
Still, the year is not finished and many phones are coming in near future. I look at the Note 4 (edge or not), the Blackberry passport(for it's concept) and obviously the next Nexus.
getting my iPhone6Plus in November :D
Can't help but feel that the 6 plus lacks some of the top notch build quality that apple has done so well in the past. Comparatively to other phones of similar screen size.
You guys should've asked Anton to send the Find 7 to Taylor for review. Also, I don't think anyone will cross-shop a relatively budget, relatively high spec Android phone with the top of the line Apple phone.
What music
Disagree...iphone6 is lower spec Phone 1gb RAM vs 2gb...less powerfull CPU...and much more expensive! Bad review ....biased.
It shows that the software is so much more efficient to mange the given hardware. You pay for the experience the specs give you, not the raw specs.
Samuel Tan It has far less software features. Thus the software does not have to handle so many stuffs and thus it does not lag.
didnt u see the benchmark ??? i phone 6+ was way better single core and almost the same at more cores
Samuel Tan agreed. its not about specs. its about the experience. Non nexus android phones would struggle with low specs
You know, mkbhd did a video on the bend gate. You should go watch it
err the z2 got that notification led style first.
In this community,there's 2 major type of people;Apple fanboys/girls and Samsung fanboys/girls. The ones who r usually criticizing I phones are the Samsung fans,while the one who criticize the rest of android phones are both Samsung &apple fans.
However,the ones usually criticizing Samsung are the android community.
Should really be comparing it to the Find 7, not the Find 7a - they're closer in price.
Just wanna point out that if you don't like Color OS you can always just mod it to be Kitkat :)
I don't really see a huge problem, i like the Color OS features :D
You should have compared with the OnePlus One.
Not considering the price... iPhone 6. Not considering the price... That's a no brainier.
U did forget to mention that the iphone is almost 2x more expensive
wow the find 7a camera, i like it
You forgot the MOST IMPORTANT THING to many people: THE PRICE! You can buy 2 a7s with the money you need to buy 1 6+
*Sees the face in the thumbnail is not Michael's*
*Knows not to click on the video*
(Clicks on it anyways to post this comment)
What about price comparison?
IPhone costs at least twice the price of Oppo find 7a
the main question is; does the Oppo Find 7a bend ? because the iPhone 6 does bend easily
why is nobody here at pocketnow talking about the iphone 6 plus bend game? the iphone 6 plus bends under the pressure of a tight pocket. hello????
The iPhone 6 plus is going to be the iPad killer
Come on pocketnow, go on for 8 minutes about how the phones are a close match and then forget to mention pricing?
Oppo Find 7a style!
Why are you forgetting the most important? The price!!
480 for find 7 and 1000 for IPhone 128gb
why compare iphone 6 plus with OPPO Find 7a instead of OPPO Find 7?
Look at Oppo Find 7's little baby sister (Oppo Find 7a) giving Iphone 6 Plus a run for it's money!!! I'm not sure if he is trying to shame the Iphone 6 Plus or may be he is trying to make it look better by sizing it up against Oppo Find 7's little sister....Two thumps down
You forgot the fact that the iphone stay at almost the same price while oppo, lg, 1+.... Prices go down alot and that the main reason i sold my lg g3 for an iphone 6 plus i bought the g3 for 750$ but now it is sold for 300$ new
iPhone 6 plus has a secret feature. If you put it in your pocket for eighteen hours, then it'll turn into a curved display.
iPhone 6 plus vs G3 is surely a more interesting comparison.
What the title looks like:
"Koala plushie vs An actual koala"
So reading the comments below I can only say this:
1. iPhone has a better camera (although lower resolution, it SOMEHOW manages to bring more detail and dynamics to the photos taken with its 8 mpx)
2. iPhone has a better battery (nearly two days)
3. iPhone single core processor is double than Oppo's and is even higher on multi processor score.
So how in God's name is Oppo the better phone?
P.S. someone said that iPhone hardware already existed in android phones for a long time. Quick reminder, why would you put a quad core processor in a phone that is already optimized and works like a charm with a mere dual core? Just to nom nom the battery? Why would you put a 100 mpx camera when you can optimize an 8 mpx camera to be even better? Big numbers = shit if they're not optimized for the particular software. Just saying.
Why compare with find 7a ? Find 7 are more powerfull..
woahhh Iphone 6plus is adorable
pwety thacha yeah like you lol
I always thought this guy was a bit of an Apple fanboy, and that little Steve Jobs statue proves that he kneels down and prays to the church of Jobs.
I really don't understand why you would choose to not compare the iPhone 6 plus to the Oppo Find 7 instead of the Find 7a.. The Find 7 is still a much cheaper phone than the iPhone, and it's even better than the Find 7a...
I would love to hear something about what thoughts are behind that choice and why you only mention the Find 7 when you are talking about the Skyline Notification, and beside that not once mention that Oppo have an even better phone than the Find 7a on the market...
wtf u didnt even mention the price!
800 vs 500
you should have compared the find 7 not find 7a
Did they called it "Find 7a" to make it sound like "5 7 8" when you pronounce it on purpose?
Each time he mentions it to me it sound like 578. That's cool!
I swear almost every phone of the same screen size and/or a tiny bit bigger like the note 3 has a smaller footprint than the new iPhone. And jeez has anyone seen the articles about the iphone 6 bending in people's pockets? I laugh at them people
