Anyone who pay with paypal have "You have orders which have not yet been paid." when you check your orders?

I had that but it updated to the payment being completed after about 10 minutes.

Just ordered phone, case and extra power. Got PayPal confirmation through from "DA SHENG INTERNATIONAL TRADE CO".. Jayzus wait till work sees that on my credit card statement!

First sway away from Samsung since my S3.. this will do me till the Note 6 comes out.. or Note 7 as some are saying it will be named

Does anyone know if they are going to launch multiple versions of the phone or is the 6gb ram, 64 gb drive the only option?

4gb end June...

i was slamming f5 last year trying to buy the 2. will hang fire a couple of months. the 3 does look good, and fair play to them giving free delivery and a factory installed screen protector, so you dont have to worry about scratching it while waiting for a tempered glass one. the 2 still looks good though.

Argh so tempted to go for this despite my previous post wondering if I even need to replace my OPO.....

Anyone manually cut down a micro sim to a nano?

My 3 sim card has already been cut down to a micro from a full size, so a bit wary

Anyone know if you can transfer number/activate a replacement nano sim from the uk with 3? Not currently in Ireland so don't want to be stuck...

yeah, i just hacked it down to size with a scissors until i squezzed it into the holder. fierce easy thing to do mate. have no fear.

EagererBeaver

I'm likely to upgrade my One to this and could get mate to bring me one home from Hong Kong. Would they be the same versions?

It's cheaper then I was expecting, I thought 450 odd. Now I am going to have to make a decision. I have some rainy day money put away so maybe this can inject some sunshine into my life. If I sell my onePlus 2 for 200 then this Oneplus 3 is actually only costing me 199.

What colours are available?

Mr Velo

Ooooh, so tempted! Have an iPhone 6S 64GB that i wouldn't mind flogging to get this.

You know the way The Verge have a go at every phone thats not an isheeps device? Well not today, they love the OnePlus 3!

StereoSound

Ok I've had a think about it, I knew I would when I seen the price, I'm gonna go for it now and see if I can get one purchased tonight or tomorrow if possible. My Oneplus 2 is going on Adverts.

EDIT: DONE! I guess I'm in the OnePlus 3 club now. Ordered a flip case to go with it. This has been a surprise purchase for me, really for the life of me did not expect to be buying this right now. Knowing I can sell my Oneplus 2 for the 200 odd mark motivated me to do it so I wont feel the financial pinch much at all. Heres to good things ahead.

Sorry my last post came off cheeky and to answer your question yes the OP3 does support Vodafone 4G.

No probs, thing is I got the ablove from a vodafone forum member, how accurate their post is I don't know.

Nolars

Wanna get this but my opo is still good, what are the camera reviews like on the op3?

dan786

Was expecting to see a Micro SD， I dont see the point of not having it. Yeah with the One Plus One they had a 16GB and 64GB model so gave Customers options and made One Plus money.

But with the OP2 and OP3 its 64GB only so dont see the advantage for One Plus behind it.

Considering the fact it would have added under 5e to the manufacturing cost， its really a disspointing one.


Seeing as many are going for it， if anyone is selling there OP2 near 200 give me a message. Dont get paid till end of month to go for the OP3 and phone cracked earlier today so have to get something to do me till them. Seems people are looking for 300 on Adverts etc which is ridiculous considering they are almost same nww.

Where are you located? I could sell mine for 220ish

Website saying ships within 5 business days. Has it been that way all day or am I just late to the party?

CastorTroy

So as someone who hasn't spent over €100 on a phone before and is using a Lumia 520 at the moment, do you think this would be the phone to splash out on? Power button's beginning to go on the 520.

What's the warranty like?

I assume this supports 5ghz Wifi?

I'm trying to buy from the Hong Kong store with Revolut to save me a few euro. Proving tricky but I'll get there!

How are you going to get it shipped to Ireland from there?

Friend who lives in Hong Kong is moving home in early July

Anyone else using Revolut to make the purchase from a foreign OnePLus store? Can't get it to work so far.

EDIT: Forgot about using a VPN when accessing the site. Hopefully will work now!

Just get him to sign up to Revolut and transfer him the money that way and get him to order for you from there.

Should I just get the bundle pack if I'm getting fast charger and cover?

He's already on Revolut but don't want to be nagging him all that much with stuff. He's already sorting me out enough as it is and there's a customs risk when he comes home I guess.

Tried with VPN and still wouldn't process so I'm wondering if there's a Revolut issue with the OnePlus site. The phone and a flip case works out at €375 euro. Well worth the effort in fairness.

decided to pull the trigger and ordered it, should be here in a week! oh and it's for my dad hahah!

You might just need a card from that region to match your friends Address.

You could try change your address in the Revolut app to the shipping Address.

Yeah, I thought about that, but assumed it would be same process like with foreign Xbox stores - you go to the foreign website through VPN and make up a fake billing address as long as it was in your name. This one is proving a bit trickier.

EagererBeaver

Tried transferring him the money and letting him buy with his Revolut locally in Hong Kong and still didn't work so I'm assuming it's a OnePlus/Revolut issue.

Can still get him to buy it locally and will work out cheaper but I want to save my additional 15 euro!

You could go sing a song out on the street and busk for that €10

It works out as phone and flip case for €390 euro instead of €420 by buying from local store. Can't be too disappointed I guess!

No but don't forget that you need to use the included charger to avail of the Dash Charge so how is that going to work if you use an adapter for Irish Plugs?

The Hong Kong plug is the same as the UK/Irish one.

Same. Problem is I live in Spain! Will use an adaptor initially and then just buy local one here and keep the three prong one at home.

Did you pay €400 + €20 for the OP2 and delivery when it came out?

I was thinking the same as you, but figure it'll drop price after a while like the OP2 did.

marcbrophy

All tech drops in price after a while

I might be wrong, but didn't it take 8 months for the OP2 to get a price cut?

:rolleyes: I dont think it was that long and it dropped price twice thats why I said I'll wait. Also, some people got €50 vouchers from OnePlus at some stage too.

deadanonymau5

There's more details on the OP3 in the Q&A on Reddit with the OnePlus team

It's clear when some Android sites have a bias against oneplus.
Android Authority have a tweet saying how the new screen on the oneplus 3 is only a super AMOLED from Samsung ... wait what? Only? that is a reason to celebrate not criticise it!

Ah, I see, I wasn't really keeping track of the OP2 that much

The OPO got a €50 increase the week after I bought one

tylerdurden94

Just purchased, wont ship till the 23rd so hoping it arrives before intended. One thing I didn't like about OOS was that you couldn't change the the DPI and was one of the main reasons why I switched ROMs currently using CM on my OP2, might just try and keep the OP3 stock this time and not mess about with it. Have seen there is an unofficial CM13 already available for it.

Are the Otterboxes are worth buying? I've normally just stuck to a Diztronic TPU case and tempered glass protector.

horgan_p

I like the look of the sandstone cover , it apparently squares off the "camera bulge"

Maybe someone who orders in the next few days could help you out and add it to their order for you. Spirt of Boards!!
