Hi all,
I wanna share with you my opinion about One+6T after one month of heavy usage.
It's great phone which is blazing fast with long lasting battery and amazing screen but there are five things which are really annoying during daily usage (comparing to my all previous phones and the last Xiaomi MI5):
1. Android Auto is muting ringtone
I drive a lot so I use AA every day. I don't know why but after connecting to radio via USB cable the ringtone is automatically muted. It makes that sometimes I don't realize that someone is calling and I miss some incoming calls. I'm not sure it's problem of my phone or Android Pie but on previous phones (eg. MI5 with MIUI10 and Andriod Oreo) problem doesn't exist.
2. No LED notifications
I understand that One+ from some reason (probably making a small notch which is great) decided to remove notification LED but they should implement into Oxygen OS some other similar functionality. This is AMOLED screen so it is quite easy to do it without big impact for battery life. Currently, I use "NoLED" app from Google Play and it solves my problem but such functionality like "NoLED" is offering should be implemented into Oxygen OS by developers without need of using/instaling third party app.
3. Redial option is missing
Many times while you try to make some reservation (eg. car workshop, health clinic, etc.) and number is all time busy you must repeat dialing and so on and so on till you get connected which is really annoying. In all my previous phones there was "automatic redial option" and I don't understand why it's not available in this phone.
4. More info/details about contact during incoming call is missing
I use two SIM cards at once (a private and company one) and have a lot of contacts in my phone book (over 1'200). I don't' understand why during the incoming call developers allow only to show Number, Name and Surname of caller. For me more fields from my phone book should be available to display (like: Company name, Job title, Notes, etc.) which will make much easier rocognition of calling person if you have so huge quantity of contacts. On previous phones I used third party apps like "Call Informer" or "Contact Details" from Google Play but I don't know why they don't work on this phone (maybe this is Android Pie fault). In my opinion such funtionality should be implemented into Oxygen OS by developers.
5. Missing counter next to app icons (only dot)
Small thing but also missing and probably bothers not only me but more users. When there is unread action on some app you have dot next to its icon to show that you should check it. In settings you have only possibilty to switch on/off this fuctionality. In my old phones it was notification counter (then you have red dot next to app with number of missed notifications).
I read that One+ developers team is quite open for user's feedback so I hope they will take my remarks under consideration during preparing next Oxygen OS.
If it's a wrong thread then please move it to proper one.
Thanks
