    I swear to f&*king christ if they bring that stupid invite system back again i will not buy the OP3. They are a big enough company now so there should be no need to dispense with that bulls^it.

    Im thinking this too. Although, if they drop a substantial enough of money off it like they did the OP2, that could swing me. Certainly not buying it immediately anyway.

    Inb4 someone defends it saying its part of their marketing, controlling supply/demand bullsh** etc.

    Pretty pathetic either way. The cofounder of a company acting like a twat.

    Had the same issue. I saw the tweet and had issues with choosing the country in the bottom right

    Woohoo! Just got mine!

    .. Suppose this means I have to get a OP3 now. :pac:

    It seems I was too slow and now they are out of stock.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    I'm on OP2 and the battery performance has noticeably dropped off. Good reason to upgrade to an OP3 I think!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭deadanonymau5


    Theyre cancelling unpaid orders in batches. You could still get one!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,309 ✭✭✭✭wotzgoingon

    It was mentioned in both the OnePlus One thread and OnePlus Two thread as well as here.

    I would pick this up but I worry about the lack of an infrared port

    I have become used to using my phone as the only remote in the house


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,299 ✭✭✭CantGetNoSleep


    Meh


  • Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 11,183 Mod ✭✭✭✭MarkR


    I'm still quite interested. I'd like to see some hands on reviews and comparisons to alternatives.

    Don't own either of those phones anymore so I wouldn't have the threads subbed.

    Would've been nice to get one but I'm not too pushed tbh.

    Phone to be officially revealed on June 14th apparently: http://www.clickonline.com/tech/oneplus-rep-may-have-outed-oneplus-3-launch-date/36131/

    250 for a OPO and 320 for OP2.

    Holy moley! Great bargains.

    I hope the OP3 launches cheap and doesnt launch at a higher price then get discounted after a few months.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭deadanonymau5


    Does anyone have a ZTE phone? Or do they even work in Ireland?

    The new one looks like a great

    Axon 7
    Unibody metal case
    Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor at 2.2GHz
    4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage (microSD card for up to 128GB)
    Fingerprint sensor
    Quad-HD (2,560 x 1,440 pixel) AMOLED
    20mp Camera (with optical image stabilization and a F/1.8 lens) (4K video at 30FPS, and and 240FPS slow motion at 720p)
    Dual stereo front facing speakers (according to engadget are better than Boomsound) with high quality DAC inside the phone supporting 24-bit/96kHz audio.

    i had a ZTE phone before, dont see why it wouldnt work here. they have to work everywhere. those specs look top notch.


  • Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 11,183 Mod ✭✭✭✭MarkR


    Very similar specifications. Would wonder about rom support.

    Saw people asking about bands and LTE for certain phones.

    3G should work. However 4G may not, depending on the actual LTE bands the phone has. Some have different bands for different geographical locations e.g Europe, Asia, America etc.

    So if 4G matters to you then you need to pay special attention to this aspect.

    Lads anyone have a windscreen holder/cradle they'd recommend for the OP3? I tried a stick-to one with my OP2 a while back but the weight of it kept causing it to slip off. I imagine the OP3 will weigh something similar.

    Well since the OP3 hasn't been released yet it's very hard to know what sort of holder will work when the specs haven't even been released:P

    Have a look at the Kenu airframe. Slots into the vents on your car.
    I've been using one for the last year with no problems with my opo & zuk z1.

    Picked it up on aliexpress for about a 5er.

    Oneplus have started selling the Two on Amazon UK, with the X following shortly.

    I wonder what the odds of the Three being sold directly through Amazon at launch are? :)

    Me too! Wonder where they're being shipped from.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭deadanonymau5


    I still haven't got any shipping notification.

    Theres 30,000 of them so they'll do them in batches, like they do for their phones.

    Try your junk mail.

    I went onto their site and it's says shipment pending, I'd say they are doing them in batches like you said.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,155 ✭✭✭StereoSound


    So how much do you reckon this one plus 3 will cost? I say it will be 450.

    Got confirmation that my VR headset was shipped.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭deadanonymau5


    So how much do you reckon this one plus 3 will cost? I say it will be 450.

    Id say less. Last year the CEO, said before the OP2 release that it'd be under 450 USD, so it seems like they know that the price has to be low. Also they pride themselves on the fact they offer high spec phones at a much lower price, or at least they did when they put out the OPO.

    If it is 450 Euro or more, it'll drop after a few months like the OP2 did.

    Who says the VR is 5 days early?
    I read last week that it would ship on 1st June.

    Got my shipment email too, can't seem to find any tracking info though. Am I going mad? :D

    EDIT: Nevermind, I must have misread that it would be June 1st. Guess I'm a mind reader :P

    Oh I clicked on that link alright, it just seems to say shipped, rather than provide tracking info :D
