    In fairness the shipping wasn't known beforehand (though obviously now I realise these shipping prices are the same as OPO/OPT).

    Express shipping from the UK is only a tenner, where are they getting 25e from. Such a pity really, the key selling point for this baby is its price. I wonder can I get a Ryanair flight to paris for that price and pick it up at the pop up shop :)

    When I bought my OPO we had to buy from the English Store. Express shipping was £15 for me then. When they went live with the Irish Store shipping came in at €15 normal and €20 express.

    The OP2 is being shipped from China at the moment so I assume that's where the OPX will ship from as well hence the long lead times on delivery.

    Very few covers available either at the minute, was so close to pulling the trigger, but seeing as I dropped my coverless OPO within hours of getting it, I need a cover!

    I'm pretty sure what the answer is, but I will ask anyway.

    What is the "protective case" specified in the OnePlus X specs page, under "In The Box"?

    It's a typo! There's no case included.

    Ordered this morning. I hope CEX still take €220 for the OnePlus one. Gonna trade in Tomorrow and use a busted nexus 5 for the meantime.

    I actually have it all set up to ship to PM from when I was contemplating a OPO a while back. But the exchange rate has killed us in the meantime - 200 sterling is around 280e, which means it is pretty much to the penny the same as the euro price with the increased shipping.

    Ah well. Tempted to just bite the bullet and order the bloody thing...

    Bullet well and truly bitten. Now for the agonising wait!

    My phone (Elephone P6000) is bashed up after about 5 accidents (including kicking it into the dodder) so it's new phone time. Bought one of these. A little bit more expensive than I was expecting, especially with delivery, but hopefully it turns out to be worth it. I'll be a bit more careful with this one.

    Exact same I paid last week for my OP2. In fairness I ordered it near midnight on Thursday last and I got it on Tuesday afternoon so it was a quick turnaround from China to Ireland.

    They have their own custom Rom called Oxygen currently running on Lillipop and there's rumours that they will be updating to Marshmallow on the OP2 in the new year.

    I wonder are the Oneplus Xs dispatching immediately? I hope so. Be nice to get it next week!

    Early in 2016 would be reasonable enough. Lack of upgrades is my main gripe with the cheaper Chinese phones.

    How was the support for the OnePlus One, does anyone know?

    Wasn't great. Think non tinkerers are still on 5.0 if even? Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm on the latest CM 12.1 (android 5.1.1) with no problems but rooting and flashing everyones idea of a good time!

    Thank you for your order!
    Orders are normally processed within 5-10 business days, excluding shipping time.

    i don't know what kind of express delivery they are offering for €24.49 which will take 5-10 business days, excluding shipping time.

    Lads let me know when your order status updated to shipped who ordered oneplus x today.

    cheers

    The 5 to 10 days has nothing to do with shipping. That's how long to process it and it could well be much shorter, I'd say they say that to cover their arses.

    I got exactly the same message last week when I ordered the op2 and I had it in my hand in three business days.

    Anything will be better than Elephone support! No issue with flashing although haven't been bothered in a number of years

    Any chance of getting hit by import taxes one one plus phones? Do they ship from China?

    Just to clear this up Yaba, you won't pay customs on One Plus phones purchased directly from One Plus.

    If you bought from somewhere else you may be liable for import duties etc.

    Yeah fair point but I presumed op meant direct from oneplus. I wouldn't advise anyone to buy from a 3rd party site.
