    I know some have been shipped today, but are they being shipped from China or the Netherlands? Realistically when can we expect delivery?

    I quickly realised my mistake about the dispatch date and edited my post :)

    Oh I clicked on that link alright, it just seems to say shipped, rather than provide tracking info :D

    Ah, didn't see the edit before I posted.

    3rd paragraph in the email, "Please note it may take up to 24 hours for your tracking number to become active" :D :pac:

    Hopefully, the tracking is live soon. Looking forward to getting my headset!!

    Why does it say it launches at 5.30 BST and say the loop opens at 12.30ET (19.30 to us) where we can order it during the first 2 hours of launch? :confused:? Can we order it at 5.30pm BST?:confused:

    Yeah, I mustve taken it down wrong or something when googling.

    So the earliest its available is 17.30. I got confused when someone said it was available at 8pm.

    Will the OP2 price decrease by much once the OP3 is released?

    It just dropped so it might be sticking at that price for a while.

    It is a great price for a great phone. I was late on the OnePlus Two bandwagon and I am sorry I didn't purchase sooner as it is such a great phone and it is a step up from the OPO. Looking at the specs when it first released it didn't look like much of an upgrade but once I have it in hand it is.

    I regret buying mine. Well, I regret updating my OPO to COS12, and then selling it. I dont think its much of an upgrade, camera and fingerprint sensor were what I wanted and I think they're a let down. I prefer the build/feel of the OPO to the OP2. I did change the back and it feels much better now.

    I think getting an invite early rushed me. Also disappointing to see the price drop soon after buying it.

    So far I've bought

    2x OPO
    1x OPT
    1x OPX Ceramic
    5x Cases
    4x Glass Screen Protectors

    And a few other accessories.

    There stuff is great value and very well made.

    I got the OPX Ceramic for my girlfriend and it feels brilliant in the hand with a lovely weight to it. Also treated myself to the bamboo swap cover for my OPT.

    Why did you get so many phones though? Issue with build quality?

    I ordered 6 one plus phones so far. Sold to friends and FAM.. Only one was returned under warranty and they replaced with a brand new one.

    OPO for me
    OPO for my Dad
    Upgraded my OPO to the OPT
    OPX for my girlfriend.

    Build quality has been excellent. My dad had a problem with his OPO rebooting and got onto support and they rang me and talked me through a fix in 20 minutes.

    Also I'm due a partial refund for the OPX because the price was lowered 10 days after I bought it so I got an email to say I'll get the difference back in a few weeks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,509 ✭✭✭marcbrophy


    I have a OPO myself Emmet, but I didn't get it until March '15.
    I couldn't excuse an upgrade to the 2 when it was announced only 4 months later!

    I think I'm allowed an upgrade now after 15 months :D

    Well since the OP3 hasn't been released yet it's very hard to know what sort of holder will work when the specs haven't even been released:P

    I'm assuming the physical dimensions and weight won't be so drastically different that a windscreen cradle for the OP2 won't fit the OP3. :p

    I've been using one for the last year with no problems with my opo & zuk z1.

    Picked it up on aliexpress for about a 5er.

    Cheers Lucas, looking for a windscreen cradle if though.

    Yeah, there's nothing on it to interact with the phone. Bit silly.

    Pretty much a better designed plastic version of what they gave out last year. In fairness it is free so....

    Found an interesting thread on OnePlus' forum
    OnePlus 3 Certified In China, Comes With 5V 4A Fast Charging Tech

    The certification listing reveals that the phone will support fast charging at 5V 4A, which translates into a maximum wattage of 20W. This would really speed up the charging process. But what’s even more interesting is that it the phone is said to come with OPPO’s low voltage charging technology instead of Qualcomm’s Quick Charging tech.

    Going to going for one of these over my s6 edge plus as I think after 3 Samsungs I need a change ans the fact the battery's are shocking on them. The s6 edge plus is now my 3rd one as the battery's keep going in them Eg 3 times a day charging.

    So going to stay back in work to try and make sure I get one of these bad boys ha ha.

    Only thing is I used to order loads of these new USB cables to leave around the place.

    According to Phonearena,

    'oppomart have three models with 4GB of RAM inside will be offered, containing 32GB, 64GB and 128GB of native storage. And there will be another three with 6GB RAM inside, also configured with 32GB, 64GB and 128GB of native storage'

    Also the battery being reported there is bigger at 3650mAh .. :eek:


    will be very happy if that one is true.
