Are There Any Known Issues with the OnePlus Smartphone?
It always helps to know if there are any bugs or prevailing issues with a smartphone you own or plan to buy, so make sure you keep up with any updates and recommendations. Some issues reported by consumers and industry professionals include:
- Slow charging
- Overheating concerns
- Connectivity Issues
- Slow performance
- Battery life issues
- Fingerprint sensor issues
These issues are frequently bugs that you can fix with some support assistance, as opposed to manufacturer's defects that require a manufacturer or repair professional's attention. However, it is always important to do your research about your manufacturer's limited warranty and the best and most affordable insurance plan and extended warranty available.
Does OnePlus Offer a Warranty?
OnePlus smartphones purchased directly through OnePlus come with a limited one-year warranty, covering hardware components as originally manufactured and supplied. The limited warranty does not cover:
- Software and accessories
- Circumstances that result in defects or damage, such as misuse, accidents, neglect and abnormal conditions, including dampness, dirt, moisture and liquid
- Cracked screens and dents, scratches and other cosmetic damages
- Ordinary use, wear and tear
- Damages or defects due to excessive force or use of sharp or metallic objects on the touchscreen
- Conditions and situations causing defects and damage to a OnePlus smartphone, including fire, flooding, windstorm, collision with an object, lightning or earthquake
- Poor or failed operation as a result of faulty cellular transmission or reception, viruses or other software issues introduced to the product by the owner
OnePlus does offer a OnePlus Care Benefits plan that extends the limited warranty for an additional year, but that plan is not yet available in the United States.
