Hard pass for me. I get where they are coming from - no buttons, next stage will be wireless charging only, means it's a fully enclosed system with zero ingress for water or dirt, so that's kind of neat.
But personally I need at least a power button and volume up/down. And I love the slider for different sound profiles on OnePlus phones.
Mute slider is such fucking nice feature... How is it not standard?
Having owned 3 OnePlus phones, I never liked that feature.
Android 5 introduced a "do not disturb" mode, which OnePlus's software just... removes, in favor of the toggle. Hence I have constantly used workarounds or custom ROMs to avoid that toggle altogether.
This is why I prefer DND/software toggle:
I've also tried using the switch for something else, like flashlight, but sometimes ended up activating it by accident, draining the battery.
So now I just have the switch doing nothing at all.
Because most people have their phone on vibrate 100% of the time. I had a OnePlus and my slider got stuck. Couldn't change the setting for 2 years but as it was stuck in vibrate, it didn't matter anyway.
