OnePlus 7T review: The 90 Hz "fluid" era hit its stride — fast, clean, beloved.
The OxygenOS golden age.
7T is the phone OnePlus fans point to when they say the software used to be better — fast, clean, near-stock, on a 90 Hz panel that made everything feel instant. The hardware is firmly dated now, but as the high-water mark of the pre-merger OxygenOS era it holds a special place.
