Was about to order it but a lot of people seem to be having problems. €500 is a lot of money for that type of stuff.

Order it, you won't regret it. It's without doubt the best modern phone I've ever owned. Still not as good as my old gold 6210 though!!

Anyone ever have issues with WhatsApp? When I am uploading photos its seems to hang from time to time and will crash maybe 1 in 10 times...

Also have been having issues with MX Player when streaming and casting from the Terranium TV app, can't use VLC with Terranium unfortunately.

Anyone sell their OP3 to get the OP3T? Get a good price?

Got myself a 3T the other day.
Loving it so far.

Anyone getting ghosting while scrolling. Like a trail following behind images as I scroll.

It's happening most noticeably on Twitter when I have night mode on (dark background) and when there are images that are navy/dark blue/black I get streaking when scrolling. It's really distracting.

Mobile data has suddenly stopped working and the network has said all ok on their side so must be the phone. Any ideas? I've tried all sorts of things, power off and on again, airplane mode on and off, sim out and back in, all kinds of mobile network settings changes and no luck

The issue is the meteor network . They tweeted earlier saying they are aware of the issue and trying to fix it.

Pulled the trigger last night on a 3t,should get it the second week in January. Just want to get a really good case sorted in advance. Looking at the otterbox for €30 or the one recommended in this thread the Spigen who have two, the rugged and neo armor. The neo looks nicer and is roughly the same price as the otterbox. Any options which is better as I've dropped my fair share of phones. Also best place to oder them. I can only see the otterbox available directly from them. Thanks in advance.

I've the otter box on my oneplus 3T find it excellent. I had a spigen on my oneplus x was very happy with that also. There is a discount code for spigen at the minute giving 20 % XMAS16

Nice one for that. What site is the discount code for? Makes the Spigen one that bit more tempting.

I also went with the Otterbox and am happy with it. The Spigen looked nicer but was only 1 piece and the 2 piece design of the Otterbox served me well on my previous S5.

I'm thinking of getting a 3T but I'm wondering if I can justify the price. I have a Vodafone Smart Ultra 6. It was great value when I bought it, has a great screen, decent camera and generally it's fast enough in day to day use. Is it worth upgrading to a 3T for €450? My main self-justification is that I'll use it for work. But still, €450...

Really tempted to purchase one of these phones but they look huge. I currently have a Moto G (2nd Generation) and need a new dual sim phone but i'm put off by the size. Any user out there care to share their view? How do they find it, too big, just right?

I was the same but honestly it doesn't feel that much bigger than my S5. I mean, it is bigger and if you hold them side to side you can obviously see that but it doesn't really feel wildly different.

I'd have kept my S5 for another good while if not for the fact that my wife broke her phone and it made no sense to buy her something knowing that I'd be buying myself something in a year.

440 is great value for what you get, but it's still an unnecessary 440 spent if you're happy with what you have.

I was a bit spectical about the size as well. After using it for few days you get used to it. Now I find it just fine.

I have used Mogo G before. Thought it's the perfect size. After using the bigger screen I dont think I can go back to smaller screen.

There's no reason to upgrade if you are happy with your current phone. Every month there's something new. When you really want to replace then look for the option.

At the moment Oneplus 3T is definately one of the better options out there.

I got this one,http://ie.mobilefun.com/59930-olixar-flexishield-oneplus-3t-3-gel-case-100-clear.htm

and this one,http://ie.mobilefun.com/60024-cruzerlite-bugdroid-circuit-oneplus-3t-3-case-red.htm
The clear one is very nice in the hand and it covers the buttons, the red one looks a bit quirky and it doesn't cover the buttons.

I kind of justified it (for the OP3 not the OP3T) but then again could come up with reasons that don't justify it as well.

- If you use your phone for 4hr or whatever it is everyday, thats a lot of time so you may as well invest in a decent phone.
- If you take pics and vids of your kids, the camera is better so it's worth having for decent pictures. The SU6 cameras pictures look good on the phone but not as good blown up on a laptop.
-Fingerprint is handy to unlock it, and you'll be able to use Android pay if you bank with AIB or KBC
-I was getting shi7 battery life on my SU6, the OP3s is much better in my experience and dash charge is very handy

I'm finding the camera a bit **** having come from the S5

Shots are blurrier than I'm used to which has been disappointing. The ridiculously quick camera load from double tapping the power button is really nice though. There were a good few seconds between pressing the app button on the S5 and it loading. This is near instant.

Just ordered the Otterbox there. Thanks for the advice. The double layer of protection sold me. €30in the grand scheme of things isn't much against the price of the phone.

Turn off HDR and flash and it helps a bit. The auto HDR slows it down. HQ mode too.
