    Just wondering about buying from amazon.fr as opposed to amazon.co.uk - is the customer support the same? I've never had an issue ordering from .co.uk and refunds etc have always been hassel free...I presume it's the same for amazon.fr?
    Thanks :)

    It's the exact same support. If bought from Amazon directly.

    Anyone recommend a good screen/tempered protector? Or are they all useless? I remember every single tempered glass I tried for my 3T was awful, either cut off some of the screen or had weird effects on them.

    Omoton seems like a great shout but it's too pricey as well as OnePlus's official screen protector.

    The Oneplus6 came with a screen protector already on it. I presume the 6T does too. I still have mine on my phone. Its perfect. You wouldn't notice it at all.

    Mine has gotten destroyed, I think it's from rivets in jeans. I'm just about ready to take it off. 6 months isn't bad though for a free screen protector.

    Is anyone experiencing bad battery drain on the 6 since the last update. Mine is usually around 50% when I get home from work but now it's almost dead and need to stick it on charge to get me the rest of the night. Might have to do a factory reset as I've just installed all updates on top of the previous.

    I used to get 2+ days, now I have a few very active group chats running simultaneously but I'm still getting 24hours battery with 6+ hours screen on time.

    Must be me so. I'll have to do a factory reset then. Struggle to get half a day now whereas would easily get a full day.of heavy enough use.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,673 ✭✭✭juke


    Mine battery was very bad until the last minor update, despite a factory re-set - gone form 2 days to less than 1. Since the last one, it's better but not as good - a full day, no more.

    Are you sure that's the price delivered and includes the state tax?

    Legally that's fraud unless your friend intends to declare it at the border and pay the import duty.

    Yes, just read a similar post saying the same thing!

    Darn it!!! :(

    Have OnePlus completely stopped selling the original 6?

    I have a mate that wants to buy one, doesn't want the 6T due to lack of headphone jack.

    Thanks!

    They stop selling old models as soon as the new one is released. The OnePlus X was the only one that was ever available at the same time as a main series phone from them.

    Weird, they're still selling it to the UK and US...

    https://www.oneplus.com/uk/6

    Option to Buy Now disappears when changing the store back to IE.

    Yes, they manufacture for 5 months only. Including some time before the phone is made, so usually 1-2 months before the phone is sold and 3-4 months after, and then a month to switch the process to the next model. Other than during the changeover they are always working at 100% capacity. It's quite efficient really but once one model is done it's done.

    Could be stock they have sitting in warehouses they they will only deliver locally or something. The phones they sell in Ireland come from a warehouse in Poland.

    Can someone shed some light for me?

    Bought a OnePlus 6 phone as an upgrade for my OnePlus 3 but I can't tell if a screen protector is on it or not? Are they preapplied like they were with op3 or will I need to go out and buy a screen protector?

    Shame if so as the preapplied one on my op3 was perfect. Applying one myself will probably end up with air bubbles etc

    It's pre-applied.

    Just bought the phone recently from Gearbest. Arrived in 4 weeks. No issues at all with customs etc. to Ireland.
    Basically they ship to a UK sorting office and everything is dealt with here. So on the package it actually shows origin as UK (rather than China).
    Just make sure to select the EU priority line for delivery. And don't stress over the tracking info once ordered. It only really kicks in when reaching UK warehouse.
    Phone is great.

    Has anyone noticed seemingly random vibrations happening on their OP6?

    I've noticed over the past couple of weeks. If I have it on vibrate, it will occasionally vibrate as if an email has arrived, but I have no notifications on the screen. Really weird.
