![]() ![]() Update 7/12: This article has been updated to include a forum post where OnePlus offered further details about this practice.ĪnandTech explains that benchmark numbers were not in line with other Snapdragon 888 devices, but specifically, benchmarks run through the Chrome browser. However, like many other brands before it, OnePlus has just been caught red-handed limiting the performance of most apps but paving the streets in gold for benchmarking apps. This allows us to compare cross-platform results more reliably.OnePlus flagships are among the most high-power smartphones you can buy, and if benchmarks are your deciding factor, they’re often near the top of any list. We're running this test in off-screen mode once again to remove display resolution differences from the equation. Unlike previous gen 3DMark mobile tests, Sling Shot is a much more advanced OpenGL ES 3.1 and Metal API-based benchmark that employs more advanced rendering techniques, like volumetric lighting, particle illumination, multiple render targets, instanced rendering, uniform buffers and transform feedback. UL's 3DMark Sling Shot is one of several modules in the 3DMark mobile suite. This allows us to compare cross-platform results more reliably. UL's 3DMark Sling Shot is a newer benchmark module that's been added to the 3DMark mobile suite. We tested all of the smartphones featured here with Geekbench's single and multi-core workloads Geekbench is a cross-platform benchmark that simulates real world processing workloads in image processing and particle physics calculation scenarios. This octa-core chip shows a small but meaningful improvement in CPU speeds, but the GPU is better still. This latest release from Qualcomm will appear in a lot of high-end phones in 2023, and if the OP11 benchmarks are anything to go by, it's going to be a good year. This is the first retail phone we've been able to test with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. Whether or not the Atmos tuning makes any difference, we like the volume and clarity of the speakerphone. OnePlus says the dual "reality" speakers in this phone are Atmos-certified. We noted no issues with call clarity, over cellular or Wi-Fi connections, and the other parties had no trouble hearing us. It supports dual SIM cards, and both can be active on 5G at the same time. In fact, it managed consistently high speeds even in areas known to have poor coverage.Īs it's officially supported on all major carriers, you should have access to services like VoLTE and voice over Wi-Fi now matter what SIM you plug in. Download speeds consistently hit several hundred megabits, and uploads are much lower, which we blame entirely on T-Mobile-the OnePlus 11 is as fast as any device we've tested. We tested the OnePlus 11 5G on T-Mobile's 5G network in areas that use the older frequency bands as well as TMo's newer "Ultra Capacity" network. OnePlus did, and while it won't do you much good now, you're all set for the future. This new wireless standard is supported by the latest Snapdragon chips, but not all devices will implement it. Still, you're almost as likely to find Wi-Fi 7 as mmWave, but unlike mmWave, Wi-Fi 7 will eventually proliferate around the world. This new standard can theoretically support speeds as high as 40Gbps, but it's only available in a handful of routers. If you're missing mmWave, maybe the inclusion of Wi-Fi 7 will make you feel better. Again, OnePlus wanted to keep this phone's pricing competitive, and mmWave is an unnecessary add-on even in 2023. With mmWave, you can get multi-gigabit speeds, but the signals only travel a short distance, and the antennas add to the cost. There's no millimeter wave (mmWave) support, however, which isn't a major concern in our opinion. ![]() ![]() OnePlus is doing the legwork so you can get sub6 5G no matter your choice of carrier. Unfortunately, there are too many unlocked phones in 2023 that won't work on one or more of the new 5G networks rolling out across the country, even though the hardware supports the necessary bands. We applaud OnePlus' decision to get its newest phone certified for 5G on all major US carriers. ![]()
