    Both models out of stock already.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,864 ✭✭✭Simi


    Absolute bargain. Only downside is that it's going to be recommended constantly whenever anyone asks for phone advice on boards! ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 27,797 ✭✭✭✭TitianGerm


    That's a great price.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,264 ✭✭✭MayoForSam


    Yes, good deal alright, I ordered one from Germany last week using mailboxde.com, still waiting.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,207 ✭✭✭CantGetNoSleep


    I'm assuming these are shipped from Europe yes?

    No stock

    Both models appear to be in stock at the moment.

    Didn't see it mentioned but 16GB model (white) is 269 EUR, the 64GB model (black) is 299 EUR.

    Edit: tried it again and both showing in stock. Am able to get all the way through to checkout. It says on the page "Every Tuesday. 24 hours. No invite needed".

    What about shipping to parcel motel?

    What about shipping to parcel motel?

    Think you might have to use the UK site then, meaning higher price for the unit, but you'd still have to pay shipping to 1+ so it would be way dearer.

    Correct me if I'm wrong :)

    Also, I though that goggle charging £10 to ship the Nexus' was a bit steep, but turns out it's cheap :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 294 ✭✭kingstevii


    ordered!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,428 ✭✭✭marcbrophy


    Ordered too, thanks OP.

    Bit the bullet and went for the posh 19.99 delivery :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,865 ✭✭✭✭Thargor


    OnePlus are going to corner the market at that price tbh when it sinks in.

    I have them. There grand...Not sure what else you can say about them. They play music. :p

    Sadly, not all earphones are created equal.

    Ordered... Damn it... I didn't need a new phone.. Oh well, Another Nexus 5 will be hitting Adverts :P

    Tempting but I just realised how large the screen is. I've a nexus 4 and I consider that verging on a bit too large for ease of use. A comparison tool below for anyone wanting to compare screen sizes.

    I went from a Nexus 4 to the Oneplus, at first I was worried about the size but you get used to it in no time.

    This +1. Went from N4 to OnePlus. No bother with size and you don't notice it after a few days. Great upgrade. With the pricing, make sure you pay the small bit extra for the 64gb over the 16gb.

    Great price for 300 euros. But for me too late as I recently bought an S5 in January :( couldv'e waited a bit longer for this 64gb O+O


  • Registered Users Posts: 457 ✭✭conjon


    thanks OP.. ordered.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,158 ✭✭✭Sappy404


    The Oppo Find 7a - a very similar handset - is on sale for €349 at present, including delivery, bluetooth headphones, a 32gb Micro SD card, a screen protector, case and charger. The battery isn't as good but it is removable, as is the storage.

    I have z3 compact which I really like but it overheated and the rare glass cracked. I need to send it away to my insurance company when I get back to Ireland and I'll be without a phone for about 10 business days while it's repaired. I'm considering just getting this and selling the Z3 Compact when it comes back from being repaired.

    Anyone think I'm mad? Z3 gets slightly higher reviews and has a ridiculously good battery but I'm really annoyed with the screen cracking.

    I've heard you can't get 4G on it in Ireland due to it not supporting band 20.

    I couldn't get an invite when I was looking at purchasing a new phone back in December and, after research, I had decided on a OnePlusOne. Eventually I ordered it from Onepulsone.eu and it came in at about €350 at the time inc delivery.

    I will say however that it's not a decision I've regretted - excellent phone with phenomenal battery life (i.e. rarely less then 50% when it gets charged at night and I've never had it run out).
