Looking for somewhere to get a cheap remote to use with the headset and my OPO, any suggestions?

Is there an obligation to buy the One Plus 3 after ordering this VR headset?

Of course not, how could they enforce that? They are in China and their laws don't apply here, would be impossible to force you to buy something.

Ah good to see my headset has shipped. After seeing some of you already get yours I was worried mine had not even moved from 'preparing shipment'.

Have a drive to Cobh Co cork from Dublin and back on the 14th, really hope I'm not stuck in traffic on the way, lol if you see the news of some mad guy driving in a blue transit van while wearing a VR headset at 5:30, that will be me looking for a strong 4G signal!

May be of use to someone - Was looking for one myself then remembered, if you have a PS4 you can use a DS4 controller.

Cool!
I imagine I need an app to pair up the controller to the phone?

Well my head set just got shipped out finally. For a while I thought they forgot about me.

Hi all,
I have a chance to write an early review of the OnePlus 3, and I'm looking for suggestions/requests from all of you, on what you'd like me to test

I'm collecting the requests on the OP forum, but you can reply here if you prefer.

Before looking at the request, in order for me to be a reviewer, may I ask you to please vote for "berlingozzo" here? https://oneplus.net/ie/lab/candidates
I won't be able to do the review unless I end up within the first 30. The competition will close in a few days, so I need all the support I can!
Thanks!

The suggestions/requests are here: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/oneplus-3-early-review.448857/

thanks!
cheers

If they haven't even got the 30 test units promo over with yet they aren't planning on a June release.

I've bought a good bit of stuff from One Plus and had a short piece typed up but never bothered to submit it because I thought the chances of being selected would be very low.

I'm a bit disappointed I didn't submit it now because I feel my piece was actually quite a bit better than a few of those that were selected that I just read through the link

The guy with the most votes has a ridiculous post

Give a writer a pen and he can rule any mind. Take the mind from the man and the pen becomes useless.

I never got why people are so keen to have headphone jacks on bottom of phones - what's the benefit?

People put their phones into their pockets top first. Headphone cable might get tangled/squashed. When holding the phone with headphones in the cable hangs awkwardly.

Very minor inconveniences.

Top first?? What kind of animal does that?

marcbrophy

Top first?

WTF is wrong with people? :mad:

I initially thought putting the headphone jack at the bottom was silly but admittedly after I take a call my phone generally does go top first into my pocket.

The headphone jack will be phased out this time next year

Just because apple are doing it what makes you think everyone else will ?.

As removing it is going to piss off quite a lot of people and I am going to be one that's for sure.

If the manufacturer bundle a set of Bluetooth Headphones in the box with the phone I don't think it'd be as big a deal.

Also there's a Chinese Manufacturer LeEco who has already announced their next devices won't have a jack but audio will be capable through the USB C port.

First thing i thought of was what about when you want to charge and listen to music at the same time? I have that situation all the time in the car like loads of people id imagine.

Not every car has Bluetooth built in even in this day and age.

When it comes to headphones I just prefer the old skool methods of a tethered pair.
