Looks like amazon is sold out of the £379 one now and only has the blue £469 one and no £30 off.

Are you a Prime Member? Pretty sure the £30 off was only for Prime Members.

I am, ordered yesterday but in case anyone else was looking, the pre order 30 off offer seems to be gone now. Might come back I suppose in the next few days maybe.

Was looking at this but I went for the Realme x50 5g
You are basically paying about 100 extra just for a amoled screen

It's £349 on John Lewis as well.

Looks like the review embargo lifted this morning, loads of reviews popping up.

Raoul · 03-08-2020 8:22am

Where is the best place to get this now? All the offers seem to be gone. At the moment I'm leaving towards this over the pixel 4a to get 5g.

It's available for general sale tomorrow morning at 9am direct from Oneplus. They've also added some additional free gifts for early buyers

One has to love the evil empire (Google) for launching the Pixel 4a the day before the Nord goes officially on sale.

With 5G on the Nord not officially yet working in Ireland a strong 4G phone might actually be a good alternative.

Yeah. Only some crappy bottle or exclusive packaging. Disappointed to miss out on the Amazon prime or john Lewis offer.

KilOit · 04-08-2020 10:15am

Anyone get updated status from Amazon yet? Delivery showing arriving Monday but its showing our of stock now

td2008 · 04-08-2020 10:23am

Yeah I saw that out of stock, delivery still showing 8-10th August for me.

Was checking out the Pixel 4a today, probably would prefer the size but other than that the Nord seems to have a better spec. Also it's not out till October and i could do with something sooner.

Kamu · 04-08-2020 10:38am

Delivery showing 7th -10th for me too, but not dispatched and no money taken yet.

Exact same thing here, would take size and camera of 4a, but Nord is better in every other way.

My phones keep getting slightly bigger... even though I don't particularly want them to. It's strange they don't seem to make decent upper range/flagship phones that are a little on the smaller side.

EDIT: Amazon delivery also saying 7-10th for me.

Apparently people (reviewers) are having problems with the screen scratching very easily on these. Might want to get screen protectors if you're purchasing one.

One Plus normally have screen protectors pre-applied. That's hardly what's scratching?

The oneplus website is a bit misleading regarding charging cable. Does it come as standard with the phone or do you need to purchase the "All-in" bundle to get one?

Charging cable and wall plug is included.

viper123 · 04-08-2020 3:01pm

So is there a difference in the one included in the all in package ?

Julez · 05-08-2020 11:07am

Not looking good on the Amazon pre-orders.

I pre-ordered 22nd July. Haven't received any information from Amazon, order still says expected 7-10th Aug but still hasn't been shipped.

Kopparberg Strawberry and Lime · 07-08-2020 11:19am

One month waiting time to order from OnePlus themselves.

td2008 · 07-08-2020 11:21am

I ordered the 256 which is showing as in stock now again on amazon.
128 is saying August 15th.

B Rabbit · 07-08-2020 12:04pm

I have this phone a week now and it's been fantastic. For 400e it represents great value imo.

Good question,as a fair barometer of ones expectations,if u come from an average phone any one plus is a step up

Got the notification that it has dispatched just now!

rizzee · 09-08-2020 5:10am

Think I'm going to purchase one today.

Best place to get one? Amazon is delivered 21st August vs possibly 4 weeks on OP site, would it make any sort of difference with warranty etc if I get from Amazon? Will I be losing out on any perks/freebies?

Also, any recommendations on a glass protector? I'll probably just use the clear cover that comes with the phone anyway.

Never used a OP device but this is the first one that really caught my eye so I'll give it a shot.

Thanks!

kapisko1PL · 09-08-2020 10:12am

Definitely a great phone to buy in this price range.

I was a happy owner of OP3 and Oppo Reno 5 (this one being slightly more expensive) but got a OP Nord there few days ago and for this price it is definitely worth the money.

Shipping was also extremely fast. I went for the priority shipping and it got delivered in just three days having ordered on 16:00 on Monday and got it delivered 16:00 on Thursday. Shipping comes from Szczecin in Poland actually.

Any questions let me know!

Amazon get's even faster if you use DPD Parcelwizzard or Parcelmotel (which still seams to be within 2 days) and than the extra day or two to get it down here.

You won't get the freebies and the added value is that you have amazon to deal with for warranty.

Thanks for the tip, Yggr!! In stock the 14th and delivered to my parcel motel 15th. I'd get it 16/17th instead of the 21st direct to my address. Happy days will get ordering now so

there seems to be a couple of 2/3 pack case friendly glass protectors for around the £6 so will grab them too.

rizzee · 09-08-2020 3:36pm

Just ordered there: £374 from Amazon if you top up your account with more than £80 for the first time, they apply an extra fiver to use on any purchase happy days. (Blue/8gb/128gb)

Kamu · 10-08-2020 6:34pm

Mine arrived today. Deadly phone.

KilOit · 10-08-2020 10:21pm

Arrived today from Amazon. Coming from OnePlus one it's a decent step up. OnePlus switch function is amazing, very easy transition. cant get over how black the black is when looking at videos

td2008 · 10-08-2020 10:30pm

Yeah, very happy with it so far. Coming from an s8 it feels like a big step up.
Trying to get used to using the gestures too instead of the buttons is taking a bit of time ðŸ™‚
downloaded the energy ring app which is a gimmick but looks cool.
Also didn't realise it came with a cover, had ordered one

Yggr of Asgard · 11-08-2020 11:36am

Amazon is now offering the 8GB RAM 128GB Onyx Grey version and the 12GB RAM 256GB Blue Marble in stock with a 2 day shipment directly to the Republic (limited stock).

Hococop · 11-08-2020 11:37am

Have a one plus 5, missed out on the deal three had for the 7t, is this worth getting ?

Juxtapose · 11-08-2020 2:10pm

can get it for 388 euro on one plus website (student discount) but delivery says before 1st September.

Amazon can have it by the end of the week but comes to 432 euro (388 pound)

Just wondering if anyone ordered free shipping from one plus and how long it took?

Thanks for the above. I cancelled my amazon order and ordered with student discount using the misses details on the OP site. Saved about 35 euro.

Ordered yesterday, confirmation saying I'll have it before the 26th. (blue 8 128)

Juxtapose · 12-08-2020 10:14pm

Theres a 10e voucher for referral if anyone is interested.

Just took it there thanks, not sure if others can use it still?

rizzee · 13-08-2020 10:10am

Have a quick question, this is my first OP.

I registered my email address for membership to their services/community etc on their website. My partner also registered before ordering the phone using her student discount. She won't be using it at all - when the phone is received and I activate it, how do I ensure the phone is registered to my own account? I think it would be messy going back and forth through hers, if there were any issues with the phone and I had to contact OP or something.

Think it can.. it's just a referral link so whoever claims gets a 10er voucher towards their purchase and it gifts me a voucher for 10.

its only if people are actually buying stuff it works.

I presume you can change the email address it is registered to. Once its bought with the student discount email, can register it to another account (i presume?).

Wouldn't worry too much about it... unless of course you dont trust her... in which case, BURN THE PHONE IMMEDIATELY

They said as long as I have the order number and IMEI there won't be an issue for support. Roll on the 26th...

Hope it works out for you.
Mine still saying dispatch 26th august, estimated delivery 1st Sept. Hopefully that changes :pac:

Kopparberg Strawberry and Lime · 15-08-2020 10:04am

Dispatch waiting time gone back up to 3 weeks

Meanwhile if I go to the UK website and order for delivery to belfast, I can have it delivered by Tuesday with free delivery !

What's going on there ?

Is there an issue ordering via UK website and getting delivered to ParcelMotel?

I don't know to be honest. I've never used parcel motel or anything like that for UK orders.

What I've done today for the OnePlus is ordered it to deliver to a friend's house up nord..... I mean North !

I might try ring whichever delivery company it is to see if they can reroute it to me in Dublin. If not my mate will drop it down to be next time he's down for work
