Question

Wich phone after Oneplus One?

Jul 23, 2016 4:49AM PDT

i've been playing around for 2 years with my oneplus but i feel like i could get an upgrade over my current device : it's aging, the battery is meh, the screen is not so good

this came up after i tried the vernee thor , comparing the devices side by side the vernee got A MUCH BETTER screen quality, deeper contrast, vibrant colors and it looked even sharper than i expected given the hd resolution

i'm looking forward a successor and i'm looking for these featyres in particular :

-Stunning display : i don't mean extreme resoluutions like qhd, i prefer a lower res but with better quality , lower deltae , wider color gamut, higher contrast, wider viewing angles are much more important than qhd vs fhd to me,
i'd rather not pick amoled tough, i fear amoled burn in too much ( i.e. i don't want a permanent pokemon go UI printed on the display within months )

-audio quality : this is rather important , i'm quite a music listener, i want a phone able to drive flawlessly my headphones with my FLAC library of albums, the speaker perfomance is important too but not too as much as headphone performance , a dedicated dac would be great

-battery : is so much important to me , i'm an heavy user and i expect no less than 5-6 hrs SOT on a single charge , i also give fast charging for granted

i don't mind anything else, unless it really sucks ( i.e. build quality issues, poor user interface , weird bugs... )

the screen size can range from 5 to 5.5 inch i don't really care

the budget is ranging from 200€ to 400 € ( approx 250 $ to 500 $ )

thanks in advance Wink
