Common OnePlus 8T issues we check at inspection

  • Screen burn-in on Fluid AMOLED display. Ghosting from persistent UI elements like navigation bars or status icons on the AMOLED panel.
  • Battery degradation. Original battery capacity significantly reduced after 3+ years, leading to poor battery life.
  • Cracked screen or back glass. Gorilla Glass 5 is durable but can still crack from drops, especially on corners or edges.
  • Charging port issues. USB-C port can become loose, dirty, or damaged, leading to intermittent or no charging.
  • Fingerprint sensor malfunction. In-display fingerprint sensor can become less responsive or stop working entirely.
  • Software glitches or boot loops. Issues with OxygenOS or custom ROMs can lead to instability or failure to boot.
