TLDR;
They love it now, one of the most accurate displays they have tested.
"The display has gone from being the most inaccurate display that I've seen in years, to being among the most accurate displays that we have on record."
--- Anandtech
Seems I like inaccurate displays [emoji6]
I had no problem with the first calibration, but after using sRGB for a couple days I just can't go back.
Also keep in mind that some users reported to restart the device after enabling sRGB to make the yellow-tint disappear.
Great job by OnePlus to bring sRGB to quickly to the users.
Me too first thought that the new sRGB mode is too yellowish, but after a couple of hours I really got used to it. Won't switch back again!
Does srgb consume more battery?

hi every body
i have some issues with high battery drain and image stabilization defect in camera!
i want to know is there any secret codes like as sony's phones for testing hardware health or any app?!!!!
when i am starting to use my phone fully charged ,battery drops to 50% only after 1 hour continues usage,i know this is depended on many items and kind of use but i think my battery really has some problems
about taking photos there is one severe problem.it seems optical image stabilizer doesnt work for me.in the most of my portrait photos Hand tremors are recorded!!!
i have latest software 401.13 on phone !!!!
Hi Babakmaham,
Try *#*#3424#*#*
It has all kinds of different testing capabilities.

thanks bro
can you take a shot from your battery level?
how long it takes from 100% to 75% in a 3d game like as real racing 3?
No problem buddy. I just ran the test on my phone, attached is the screenshot. I haven't really done any gaming on it yet but I'm getting great battery life. On the few days I've used it nonstop I got about 12-14 hours run-time.

Yo XDA people! Whats up! ?
Im just asking about brightness performance under sunlight, or outdoor settings. To be hones my M7 is not as good as I thought on this settings.. it shows lots of reflections.
I just saw my friends Xiaomi MI4 next to mine, I was blown away by the performance of their brightness.. mine was already in 100% yet easily taken down by MI4 50% ??
But i still love my phone and would love to see some improvement in this area
Any thought? ?

Is eco mode turned off? Its the only thing I can think about. There's not much improvement to do, the display is built like this.

Looks like it is being released to reviewers first then to us. I'm excited to see what other tweaks are included and how it performs after that update. Although my screen seems perfect and I've changed my ram limit to use all 6gb, it will be interesting to see how the world reacts.
http://www.neowin.net/news/oneplus-...xed-in-upcoming-update-reviewers-get-it-first
Maybe a reviewer could give us that update file even sooner ?
I hope that both are only options in developer section. I have no interest in a RAM fix right now.

Nobody has demonstrated that. I'm willing to bet that it conserves battery life because fetching an app from RAM is far more efficient than having to reload apps all the time.
Yesterday, with the ram fix, I got over 5h SOT with heavy multitasking. If that's the battery being impacted, then I'll take it :good:

Because I agree with OnePlus' decision in the first place as it fits my usage better.
It has seemed to make my battery life better, and to open up an app exactly where I left off is amazing. I think it's worth the fix.

Their decision was because they wanted to conserve battery life - but if it doesn't have a negative impact on battery life, then that's a moot point, right?

I don't know. If it doesn't have any impact on battery life and snappiness, then I would probably welcome it. However, I barely use more than 6 different apps on a single day, so I wouldn't even see a difference.

I'm curious (please don't take this as being rude or anything). How are you using only 6 apps a day? I mean, just making a phone call, texting someone, and checking email takes three.

Don't worry, no offence taken. A regular day would look like this:
phone, hangouts, chrome, inbox, whatsapp, camera, spotify - sorry, that's already 7, but I don't use the camera nor spotify (only in the gym) everyday. Most used apps are hangouts, chrome and inbox. I'm a pretty boring user but use my phone a lot.

Ah, I can see why the 6gb wouldn't be that important.
Do know that chrome uses a lot of ram! Every tab is an app. So 7 tabs is 7 apps
I've never been able to max out 3GBs of RAM much less 4 even with a 64bit Android OS. OnePlus added 6GB of RAM and USB C solely for the bragging rights, which explains why neither are implemented properly. I would have bought the OP3 if it didn't have either of them.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk
I'm all for updates, and glad they're pushing them out quickly. Honestly though I'm perfectly content with the current version. I think the screen looks great, I don't notice any over saturation. And while I guess putting more of the RAM to use would be a welcome thing, I have yet to experience any kind of slowdown at all. I guess I'm kind of like Derdjango in that I use my phone all the time, but only a select few apps. Maybe closer to 10-12 depending on the day though.
Battery should be more efficient with multitasking, and a camera upgrade is badly needed as sometimes camera got buggy and stucks while clicking the pics.

I can see why people are calling USB C and 6 gb ram as a gimmick but if it's giving me a future proof phone, I will take it. 2 years back 2 gb ram was more than enough and today 3 gb is considered as a baseline. With 6 gb ram at least I will have options to keep this phone for few years even if it fails to manage RAM properly. We all came to XDA to learn how to tweak with our devices after all and it would be better to respect OP's decision of how to manage their OS and take the tinkering in our own hands.

Here is a screenshot where you can see only 1Gb unused out of 6Gb. 5Gb used for system, apps and cache. There are a lot of apps opened/cached (nothing crazy). Only 1 game in memory (candycrush).
The other screenshot shows battery life under this load. I must say, I'm quite surprised.
I think many people complain because they were hoping that less memory would've made phone cheaper, but I doubt that there would be much difference in price. I like 6Gb for the future proof as mentioned earlier. It can be used right now with build.prop fix or upcoming OTA. I hope that Google builds system that can even better utilize it in the future.
I noticed on my phone that it is set at the medium resolution settings instead of the highest one. I read in the preliminary reveiws that going to the highest will burn more battery and make things smaller. I am a 50 year old man that should use glasses but doesnt. Now that people have had the phone for a while what settings are people using for their resolutions and does it make the text smaller. I dont seem to notice but i cant check anymore as i returned it for a verizon model and will be waiting. It is a question i could never find a answer and this is the last place i could figure to look.
The highest resolution does not change the text size. If you look very, very carefully, you may notice a slight difference in sharpness compared to medium resolution, but it is, in my opinion, negligible. Take also into account that med res is also more battery friendly and you may reach the same conclusion as I, that med res is the way to go.

I keep mine at FHD+ (2220x1080), simply for the battery trade off. WQHD+ (2690x1440) uses a lot more power and not a lot of content is native in that resolution, and it does make things smaller. The only instance I could imagine there being a significant advantage of the latter resolution would be when one was using the Gear VR. When a display is that close to your eyes and viewed through the lenses of the headset, you'd want a higher resolution to avoid being able to see individual pixels.
As a near 50 year old man myself I recommend setting it to the medium setting, keeps battery happy and the old 4 eyes.
The battery difference in the middle and Max is minut. Here is mine at Max all day brightness at 80.
So put it on the Max if you want don't worry about the battery. Like I said I tested both resolutions and its not that big of a difference at all. We buy these phones for there great display use it.

Thank you for that - I may switch as well, the difference really seems negligible.

Yes this!!! I just got 24 hours on full res with 25% battery left, so no big hit on battery. Makes it look crisper and sharper when I have my cheaters on .

I tested out the highest setting when I first got it but found it to be negligible in difference. Based on that and the fact that I knew it would just burn down the battery, I switched back to medium.

I got over 6 1/2 hours of SOT yesterday with it on Max.
don't see the point in max setting for general use. Its only of use for VR. Should auto detect VR and whack it up too but it doesn't.

Good question. Battery life on my Note8 is very good. Today, with a SoT of 4h, 45 min of which was Waze, the phone was at 49%.
But - I don't use push notifications, no Whatsapp and I am vrey careful about which apps can send notifications at all.
BTW - screen on Auto, resolution at medium.
If you are doing all that, I would consider a factory reset...

So you don't see the point for having better resolution on your screen? If that's the case just get a 720p phone.

I got close to 7.5 on medium. It's just not necessary for what I do. If I'm going to use VR then I'll switch to it, but I don't so there's no need for me.

Nice
I've own the note 9 since it's release, and I've heard that the phones need to "calibrate" themselves to achieve their best battery life, so long story short, today I got this INSANE SOT
Pretty much an hour of SOT per every 10% of battery.
NO battery saving mode.
My screen is at WQHD
AOD off (I don't really need it)
Mostly WIFI
I'm using Swift Installer (all black with accents)
IMO I think this battery is an absolute beast. What do you guys thinks?
And yes, this was on a single charge. From 100% down to 4%
Did you check if anyone got better
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-9/review/screen-time-t3824664
Not a record but still impressive..I've seen 13+ hours even on Note 8 lol. You can game SOT like crazy if you really want to
