Hi everyone- this is Joseph from forest tech reviews, aka your favorite Cajun tech, reviewer back with another video today, today's video, yes, I'm gonna, talk about five reasons why you may not want to pick up the OnePlus word 200, I'm actually filming this on the OnePlus word 200. So again, let me know how everything sounds. How does everything look and can you all actually use this phone to film YouTube videos? Yes, it's not the brightest day in Texas. We have been having a lot of rain in San Antonio, which is a good thing, because normally it's about 105 degrees every day out here, so let it rain, but I don't want to make this video too long. So, let's get into it. If you have this phone, if you agree or disagree, let's have a discussion in the comments below overall, I am enjoying the phone, but I think there are five things that may keep people away from buying this phone or five things that they can really improve.
On the first thing I'm gonna talk about is the low light capability on this phone. If you are taking pictures in low lights, all the time or situations where the camera is not perfect as far as sunlight or lights, then this phone may not be for you like right now. The camera looks good, the video not too bad. I mean this is the best. No, but it's its doing pretty good as what I'm seeing you know on the phone itself, but when you come too low light video and photos yeah, it doesn't work.
I mean I don't. I don't care what people say. This is not. Oh, it's the phone, it's the price. I have other phones for the same price that will do a better job.
So, if you're into low light pictures and taking video and low lights, then I wouldn't try to pick up this phone. Also, the next thing: when you're in your room or in a not bright situation, then the display is not bad, but if you are outside all the time trying to use it, trying to read it trying to even take video during the day the display is horrible, and again it's an LCD screen. It's 216 dollars, but it may keep people from buying it because it's not an ole duh display it's just an LCD and when it comes to your know bright, uh, sunlight yeah, you can't really see you can't, it's pretty bad, pretty bad, pretty bad, pretty bad. But again, how does this video look, and how do I sound? Because I think it's doing a pretty good job. The clouds look a little blown out right in the middle there, but not too bad.
So yeah. The display on here, especially in direct sunlight, is not not the best, not the best at all. I don't yeah. It is what it is, though I mean I got the phone for free, but just wanna, let you all know some things I notice about the phone. The next thing I want to talk about is on the speaker.
The ignored 100 had dual speakers and actually sounds pretty good. I watched some videos on that device and the speaker actually sound, perfect. Even with the dual speakers. They took away one of the speakers on his phone and gave us a bottom facing speaker which gets kind of loud. It's just not great.
I did some comparisons. I even did a comparison with my motor g7, which is two years old, and the motor g7 did a better job to me sounds better, and it just overall sounds like a better speaker. It's louder too, but I don't know what OnePlus was thinking and again. I know people don't say for the price, for the price can't keep on saying that folks can't keep on saying that you know. Overall, I mean yes.
Can you watch YouTube videos? Yes Netflix? Yes and again, will your older parents care about it? Probably not, will a younger kid? Probably not. It does have a headphone jack so, but these are vid. These are things I don't like about the phone, but the overall speaker quality is not the best man, not the best man. I don't go to water with baby girl, but so, let's move on that was number three. If I'm not mistaken, number four is overall too.
If you are not with T-Mobile- and you want to buy this phone out right, it's 249 right now, 249! I don't know about that. I mean overall, you get a perfect device, but for 249 dollars. If you shop around, you can get a one plus seven t pro for that you can get a one, eight one plus eight for that price. There are other options that you can get. You can get last year's flagships or two years flagships and probably get a better experience with those phones.
Then you would get with that one if you, if you're, not if you're, not with 18 t, I don't know- or I mean, if you're not with T-Mobile. I don't know if this phone makes sense for you, especially if you're trying to buy unlock. That's just how I really feel about it again. Like I said, if you're 18t, I had a friend looking for a phone, and I thought that was with T-Mobile. They told me it was 18 t, so I had to go a whole different way with them, because I didn't want to recommend this phone to them because I don't know if they had to buy unlock for 249 dollars.
I just wouldn't spend that much, because personally I know I could get the phone cheaper somewhere else dude. What are you breaking for so fast come on? Let's go turn. Look. People don't know how to turn. They just don't know how to turn come on baby girl.
It's okay, don't get mad, but yeah overall, like price. I know you can get phones for cheaper and get a better value now, if you're on T-Mobile, again no-brainer, if you have a used smartphone that you're not really using any more as long as the screen is not cracked, and it turns on that's a no-brainer, I mean pick up the phone for a second phone, give it to your youngest son or kid. That's young. Give it to your grandparents for T-Mobile makes sense. Now.
The last thing I want to talk about and one and the last reason, the main reason why you may not even want to get this phone, even if it's free is the snapdragon 480 processors. Yes, I know it's a 5g processor, but man it opens abs slower than my grandma can walk. Sometimes you know, and it's its just it has hiccups on it. I mean I had to reboot couple apps the app shut down on me or crash on me. So overall the 480 processor needs some help.
To be honest, I've played some games on I'm trying to make a gaming video. It did okay, but I mean it just takes a while. I know it's not a flagship processor on there. So yes, I know how much I paid for the phone, but again there are some things you want to perform. Well, even no matter what the price is for so yeah.
So and that's one thing: the snapdragon 480 processors, not the greatest thing on earth, but I have to let you all know this. I just want to go to five things that you know you may not want to buy this phone for if you have it, and you agree or disagree, let me know if you're thinking about getting like, I always say on all my videos, make sure you do your homework. If you like this video, give it a thumbs up, also make sure you follow me on Twitter at four's reviews and also have a great day, listen to the car. She sounds great, but you all have a great day. Peace out.
You.
