Is OnePlus WARP Charge Special?

2018-12-13
hey how's it gone Dave 2d here so 1 plus recently launched their new McLaren edition of the oneplus 60 and it costs $70 more than your regular kind of equivalently specs 1 plus 60 for that $70 you get 3 main features one a completely different aesthetic is the same foam but it looks a lot better in my opinion than the regular ones it comes in a new box comes with some fancy stuff but the phone itself has this carbon fiber finish and an orange accent color on the bottom and it looks nice but also has two main hardware features so it has 10 gigs of RAM instead of your standard 8 gigs and it also has this new charging system so the 10 gigs of ram is cool but I could be honest I feel like 10 gigs of RAM on any phone is superfluous at the very best but the charging system was something I was interested in so I tested it out so this charging system is called warp charge and it pumps up to 30 watts into your phone so the traditional kind of 1 plus 6 or 1 plus 60 charging system the well they used to call the dash charge it's called fast charge now this pumps 20 watts at peak into this phone 30 watts comes from the warp charger and it comes in this bright orange color oneplus claims that the warp charger can fill up the McLaren Edition phone to up to 50% in 20 minutes so I tested it several times truth is I never got 50% not even once in the several 20 minute trials ahead but it got close the closest I got was 48% but this is the charging graph so at first when you charged both of these phones the regular one plus 60 with the regular 20 watt fast charger or - charger charges noticeably slower than the 30 watt warped charger but by the time it's like 50 maybe 60 percent full the speed is reduced on the warp charger it's still fast but it's just not as fast as it is when you first start charging the device it could be a thermal thing but I feel like the benefits of the Warped charger are more noticeable if you're just filling up from 0 to like 50 or 60 anything beyond that it's cool but it's not as substantial as I thought it would be and just out of curiosity I switched the phone so I used the warp charger to charge the regular one plus 60 and I used the - charger or the fast charger to charge the Maclaren edition phone and surprisingly the warp charger does juice up the regular 1 + 60 a little bit faster but it's not like a huge day either I would say though that this is it's like is this worth 70 bucks I feel like for most people it isn't like if you're looking at a 1 plus phone you're probably someone who appreciates value not that this is like a bad value or anything like that but this like the value proposition of what you're getting here isn't huge right like unless you're a huge fan of McLaren or you love the color orange or you love this little plaque thing I just realized you can remove this like you can take this out there's a little piece of carbon fiber in here it's like a little it's like the McLaren logo prints I don't you know what let's remove it I'm getting a screwdriver oh yeah comes apart real easily but like I was saying value wise it's a cool-looking product but for 70 bucks that's like a big percentage of the actual value of the product so I would say for most people it's not worth it but it does look cool now I think more interestingly I think in the future oneplus phones will probably include the warp charger and that sounds cool like I hope they don't use this as a as a way to like justify their upcoming increase in price for all their future phones but slightly faster charging times is good for everybody I might have to edit this but I don't feel like this video is very long anyways thanks for watching okay it is it's glued in it actually looks like it's real carbon fiber though okay hope you guys enjoyed this video sir this was so disappointing see you guys next time thumbs we liked hit subs you loved it
