    My Moto G keeps shutting itself off and I'm tired of only having 8GB of internal space.

    I think €350 is a good price for the One and it's about the max I can spend right now.

    Convince me not to.

    That's an option if I miss tonight.
    They are cheaper new and you get a warranty and all that jazz.

    It's ok on Three though, right?


    EDIT: Yes, I think. The One supports LTE Band 3 and so does Three Ireland.

    It's ok on the Three 1800Mz band. They are introducing band 8 (900Mz) now for better indoor coverage and it won't work with that. Most of their 4g is sill 1800Mz though.

    I have a one plus one and am on 3,it works great. The only real issues I see is customer care/after support. I updated the phone and it went into a boot loop, if I waited for OPO to sort it it would have been 2.5 weeks without a phone. If you break it and need it fixed there seems to be a 4-6 week return time. So really you're getting an exceptional spec phone with some iffy aftercare. I have a cover, I should get a screen protector but lazy. I'd say get one, I don't regret it.

    Yeah, Vodafone use band 20 (800Hz) according to their CS Manager
    [url] https://community.vodafone.ie/t5/Network/LTE-Bands/td-p/150081?nobounce[/url]
    Also Wiki backs that up
    [url] http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks[/url]

    Meteor use both Band 3(1800Hz) and Band 20(800Hz) according to their CS rep http://forums.meteor.ie/t5/Meteor-4G-Getting-started/What-LTE-4G-frequency-bands-does-Meteor-use/td-p/135724

    why dont you just buy with an invite and change the flag down the bottom to uk? then ship it to parcel motel, like what most of us did. they couldnt even give away invites last week

    if you buy from amazon you might get stung with customs. and it might just be color os

    On the way from OP direct and shipped via parcel motel.
