    Can anyone recommend a replacement for the oneplus 3t. Have mine now 3 years and it has been brilliant but recently has started to drain the battery very quickly and now the charging port is very loose. What are the best option which allows for the following:

    Don't want a bigger screen size
    Dual sim required
    Battery of at least same size

    Is it possible to buy a new 3t and is there any cons to doing so given the age of the phone

    If the charge port is loose just check that it's not just full of dust or lint. Had a similar problem before. Use a toothpick to pick it out

    xiaomi 9t is 4mm longer in size. not much bigger than the 3t.

    good battery, dual sim.

    you don't need the pro version, the normal 9t is plently enough.

    no new 3t's for sale at this stage. also the android version on it would be out of date and with no security updates coming.

    you'd have to install a custom rom

    We I'm back to this. Finally packed up today. Will not charge at all. Anywhere in cork I could get this looked at. Can I send back to oneplus for repair? They previously replaced the charge port but it was under warranty then. Will they still carry out repairs and if so how much?

    What are my best options for replacement

    Don't want to spend too much in the current climate

    Thanks
