Just ordered an Orzly tempered glass screen protector on Amazon - it curves to fit the 2.5d edge. Had one for my OPO and loved it - probably smoother than the original! Would be a bit concerned that it could obscure the tiny capacitive key lights if alignment isn't spot on.

Yep same here, have two full screens Orzly's on the way as I don't like the way most of the others look.

This USB C OTG cable from Aliexpress arrived today. Works great.

how you get them to deliver to ireland, if select black colour china blanks out but if you select spain it wont deliver to ireland.

I got a white one delivered from China - ordered on 18.6.16 and arrived yesterday which is pretty quick for aliexpress. There's lots of other sellers on there too. I don't like the ones without the wire (eg the official opo one) as buy the time you plug in a USB stick you have something that could easily get knocked which could wreck your USB C port.

I was looking at that, but it wasn't sold/sent by Amazon, did ye both get the one dispatched and sold by G-Hub?

I've bought Amazon fulfilled stuff off G-Hub, never had a problem with it. Free shipping to Ireland as well on that one it seems.

digitaldr · 05-07-2016 12:46PM

Usually prefer to buy direct from Amazon so gread to hear g-hub are OK.

Yep just looked to make sure it was G-hub. I used my work address via post (not a motel) it's already been dispatched too.

sunflour · 05-07-2016 02:55PM

Just got word that it's been dispatched! 😁 whoopee! :P

Is the screen cover that's on it pretty easy to take off?

Ok going to get one of these and get rid of the one plus one. However going to hold off on purchasing until those friendly developers over on XDA come up with a good rom.

Dash charging is proprietary so won't feature in any ROM

Saw a few ROMS over on XDA already so none of these have Dash Charging?

Still looking at updating from one plus one checking sites for best price 400 on one plus but looks like you pay extra for earplugs and charger this correct?

Same here, ordered the night of Friday 1st and coming from Poland according to DHLs tracker.

Those 2.5D screen protectors are great. Had one on my S7. The only downside is the bump around the home key. When installing it you need to be very careful not to touch the adhesive or have any oily prints on the phone. Just one part of the adhesive not sticking correctly will result in clicking noises which can be annoying.

Interested in buying this phone, presume directly form oneplusnet is best option?
1. What's cheapest way to purchase, presume paying in £ and using parcel motel?
2. There is option to enter promotional code when buying, any knocking about?
3.Presume charger that comes in box is dash charger?

1. This is very slightly cheaper if done in the next few days, the UK price is about to go up.

2. I have never heard of a discount code going for the OP3 or any of the phones but could be wrong.

3. Dash charger is included in the box

Price is increasing from £309 to £329 next Monday.

KINGPIN · 05-07-2016 04:48PM

Looks to be alot cheaper buying on the UK site, is there any issues from buying it on the UK site?

Mate bought for me in Hong Kong. Paid equivalent of €390 for the phone and the case and have to wait for mate to bring home from HK this weekend and then get it out to Barcelona next time I have a visitor. Sterling price now works out at €363

hdl · 05-07-2016 05:43PM

I'm debating biting the bullet and ordering this. Never had any of the One Plus phones before. Anyone who has this, how would you rate the camera/photo quality? Camera is one of the most important factors for me. Thanks.

Not being smart but it's been mentioned a few times here that there are plenty of reviews online that give you a really good idea of what the camera along with other features of the phone are like. Most say they are all very good. Very few cameras ahead of it (galaxy s 7)and probably none better in the same price bracket.

breeno · 05-07-2016 06:14PM

Pulled the trigger through UK store today. Dying to get it in my hands now. Ordered a bamboo case with it which hopefully won't slow down delivery.

Thanks for that. I've read loads of reviews honestly, but really there's only so much a professional review will tell you (I think, anyway), so I was just wondering what "real" users think of it. Thanks for your reply.

Can you order from the UK store and get it delivered in Ireland? or did you use Parcelmotel/wizard?

Anyone know?

Also, do they take payment when an order is placed or when dispatched?

I ordered to the NI parcel motel and paid with paypal, also chose to use the bank ex rate and not paypals. In my pending transactions it sat at 371 but when it went through I got done for 391. This was last Wednesday I ordered, think sterling has slid a little again since.

Thanks very much.

That sucks, I might just wait for the gold so.

I'm coming from the HTC One M8 and I was surprised by how good he sound is on it headphone-less.

Used it a bit over the weekend with the headphones and it's just as good as the M8

How do you find it in general compared to the HTC One M8. Would be making the same move myself so was wondering is it substantially quicker than the M8 in general use. Is the camera much better in normal light/low light?

Thanks for any response

god's toy · 05-07-2016 09:08PM

Just some of the bugs from the last update... Have to say the ringer being silent, youtube being only 480p (not 1080) and it not auto connecting to WiFi when I get home are on mine.

1) SIM not detected after 3.2.0 update in certain scenarios -> SIP accounts seem to be fault, according info from many users.

2) LED notification light bug -> Sometimes the LED colours aren't right. They still change during the pulsing cycle.

3) Media Nav Bluetooth doesn't work.

4) Touch sounds bug -> Even with 50% volume, you can barely hear them.

5) Fingerprint sensor doesn't check the proximity sensor -> It's always scanning even it the phone is in the pocket.

6) Landscape mode for battery history details is distorted -> Area below graph should be scrollable.

7) Icons bug -> User changed a few Icons on the homescreen and sometimes he has a lot Android Icons in the menu.

8) Youtube bug -> Videos are only available in 480p, even OP3 should be able to play 1080p videos, doesn't happen with everyone.

9) Vibrate mode toggle reset ring volume.

10) Vibrate at touch stopped working after 3.2.0 update.

11) Wifi does not connect automatically.

12) No call and sms sounds.

13) Camera Error after 3.2.0 (all results are only green) -> After 3.2.0 OTA, any pictures taken using the stock cam only resulting in green "block" pictures.

14) Trouble connecting PS4 controller to OnePlus 3 -> It does detect it and it does connect, but it does not do anything (Bluetooth and wired)

15) Recording audio bug -> Recorded audio has a low volume, put the volume at max to hear it loud, not balanced.

ZeitgeistGlee · 06-07-2016 01:37AM

Anyone with a Oneplus tempered protector on find screen touch response isn't as good as without? Mostly noticeable when I'm scrolling (perceptible jitter). At the same time seeing as I paid €12 for it I don't want to take it off just to test.
