Just been delivered. I ordered on the 23rd and didn't receive a text from DHL saying they'd deliver today.

Have the One Plus 1 and was thinking of upgrading to the 3

Is it worth it. Dual Sim is appealing but for those whom have come from the 1 is there much difference?

I did but it was late.

By the time the website said the package was en route it had already been delivered.

Replacement screens already available on Aliexpress! They might even be actually genuine as I can't imagine they'd have time to produce fake ones although you never know! Repair looks to be dead easy too especially if the frame is included with the screen which it seems to be.

I'd say it is as I had the OPO and upgraded a few months ago to the two and it is a far better phone than the one so I'd say the 3 is probably even better.

Are the covers a unique pattern, if they are made from wood? Or do they all look the same?

I've just come from the Oneplus 1, and it is a great improvement. It is very fast. Fingerprint recognition is excellent, and it has better band support for Ireland. Previously I only had 4g in cities, but now I can get it in my house.

Would recommend. I sold mine with accesories for 180 a few weeks before launch, and ordered during launch. Bit of a pig in a poke as we're all aware, but it worked out well!

I would recommend the otterbox case, if you don't mind the extra size. I'm holding off til they have a sale to get another dash cable or two. Original screen protector is a mild annoyance for some, doesn't bother me.

I don't know when I'd use the dual sim (haven't yet), maybe on holidays? It's a nice feature to have.

I've got a 2 week holiday to Croatia coming up soon so will be picking up a T mobile tourist SIM as soon as I get there - unlimited 4G for € 11/wk

pedatron · 01-07-2016 03:33PM

Ordered last night after i dropped my oneplus X down the loo. Can't wait for it to come now. Currently using a battered galaxy s3 and its driving me crazy!

Where do you pick up one of these? Heading to Croatia myself in August could be handy for Maps and spotify.

Going to order the OnePlus 3 through the UK site with a revolut card. Anyone done this yet? Can save about 30 quid.

8th and 13th of July! Hoping it's wrong and we'll get the phone next week!

I ordered on the 29th, expected dispatch date July 7th, delivery on the 14th.. Should've held off a few days, might've been here quicker!

My order is the exact same hoping it might come sooner though.

From reading over all the posts here the dates look to be extremely loose. I'd be confident we'll get the phones next week some time

My shipping dates went from the 19th to the 23rd then 28th and finally the 4th of July but I actually received the phone yesterday (1st of July) so God only knows when you'll get it, I think I was just unlucky though tbh because people who ordered on the same day as me and even days after got their phones last week so bear that in mind too.. On the positive side of things though, the phone is well worth the wait, blown away by how good it is and by the build quality which is excellent.

Can you do the same for Poland?

digitaldr · 02-07-2016 10:40AM

Sorry don't know

gar · 02-07-2016 12:24PM

Have to say it's a massive jump from the oneplus one. Really fast.
Finger print sensor is great.
Only thing I don't like is no menu button

DanC90 · 02-07-2016 01:48PM

Only thing I wasn't too keen on was the Oneplus Launcher, it's quick and stable but the icons were huge on it and I can't see myself using "the shelf" either so I went back to Nova Launcher.

I'm also looking forward to my sandstone case arriving, I usually never put cases on phones but this is so thin and a little bit slippy that I think I'll need one for the extra grip.

Overall though I'm delighted I got this, it's lightening quick and on its first charge I'm close to 6 hours SOT with 32% left in the battery, if it stays like that I'll be very happy.

Does 4g work for meteor and one plus 3?

Phone delivered yesterday. Very happy with it though only realised when I had it that the Sim card from my IPhone4 is different size so have to wait few days before using for call but is a big improvement (not surprising really) from the IPhone 4. Delivery date said next week so they are a bit off. I also ordered a case which was to arrive in a few weeks and then I got a token for 20 euros

today from OnePLus due to the delivery delay so going to cancel and get the oneplus official case.

Just a heads up mate, that link you've done is the OnePlus 2 bundle, might want to doublecheck your order just in case.

Above is the one you'll want.

Lucas Hood · 02-07-2016 06:14PM

Fighting the urge to buy this. It'll be my 5th phone if I get it

Phil.x · 02-07-2016 10:23PM

Is it true the camera's not up to scratch
