    He hasn't been able to escape to Hawaii just yet, but he's been looking for an immigration lawyer in Honolulu to help with his asylum claim.
     
    It's been slow, due to his family breathing down his neck, but he seems to fully intend on escaping to Hawaii.

    Homophobic parents that are okay with the idea of killing gay people, because they see it as "justified" in the eyes of God. And they're starting to suspect that he is gay.

    Who took the jam out of your donut?
     
    So long as the battery life is good (and it appears to be), it doesn't matter how far above 1080p the OnePlus 7 Pro is.  And I haven't seen an Android phone using anything faster than UFS 3.0, so I don't think you can accuse OnePlus of lagging.  This might be more expensive than earlier OnePlus phones, but you're also getting flagship-class hardware for considerably less than flagship prices... my only beef is that the non-Pro 7 isn't showing up in many markets.

    Well, the OnePlus 7 Pro is official, and it's pretty much as expected.
     
    First things first, the OnePlus 7 Pro is the first OnePlus device to break free from the realm of FHD and introduces a higher resolution display, and also goes a step further with a higher refresh rate of 90Hz, which should offer a smoother experience, although not quite as smooth as the 120Hz panel on the Razer Phone 2.
    The OnePlus 7 Pro also doesn't seem to have a notch, which is because much like its Oppo/Vivo contemporaries, the front camera is hidden behind a motorized pop-up mechanism. OnePlus claims it can withstand north of 300k cycles and is able to apparently retract quickly should it detect a fall. Not a huge fan of moving anything on phones, especially motorized, but we shall see.
     
    Speaking of camera, seems that OnePlus has joined the likes of other Chinese manufacturers and implemented a higher-resolution image sensor that's designed to do 4-in-1 pixel binning, effectively creating 12MP resolution images which should have better overall quality. That, of course, is accompanied by computational-whizbangery.
    The OnePlus 7 Pro will go on sale later in the US on May 17th, although keen buyers can get it now off the T-Mobile pop-up store in Times Square. The phone starts at $669 all the way to $749 depending on what variant you get.
     
    $669 - 6GB/128GB
    $699 - 8GB/256GB
    $749 - 12GB/256GB
     
    And no, the standard OP7 is not coming to the US.

    I hope these issues aren't going to turn out too big, or at least be able to be fixed with software (that doesn't lower the performance much), otherwise Intel will be somewhat screwed..
    Or it turns out AMD also has these issues and it's evenly bad for both parties.

    No. One of the reasons why people choose the iPhone/iPad is security and allowing other stores in the App Store would result to sketchy applications without the knowledge of the user.
