    I think no 3.5mm jack, no jack adapter and no notification light is a deal-breaker for me but still interested to hear opinions on it

    5t is still going strong apart from having to be very precise to get it to quick charge

    Invest yourself in a pair of wireless bluetooth headphones, I did the same and never looked back.

    Just pulled the trigger on a 7T Pro + Karbon Bumper case. €800 is a bit eye watering but upgrading from a 5 and will be re-purposing that as a phone for my son.

    When the purchase is complete you are then presented with an option to buy the "OnePlus Protection Plan" which is an insurance policy for circa €80 which provides a repair service for any damage done to the phone but when you click on it https://aftersales.oneplus.com/login you have to enter a phone number to get the process started but Ireland isn't listed as one of the country codes.

    Anyone else looking to get this insurance cover and if so have you figured out how to get it?

    I do have a couple of pairs. There are times where I find the jack quicker and more convenient.

    Not sure one could call being restricted by cables that tangle and are restricted in length, need to be untangled and physically plugged in an improvement, but each to their own.

    Personally the on button switch on my Sony headphones is far easier and I have all the controls I need on the headset to never even have to touch the phone which can be the other side of the house.

    I don't know how many on here have access to college emails?
    BUT!
    If you do, and you haven't still yet set up a studentbeans account...
    Do it quick!

    I got an email this morning with a 10% off Oneplus 7T offer.
    Its not a referral link so I can't share it but if you have college email, its not to be sniffed at.

    Small gotcha: it's "up to" 10% off the order.
    The device is capped at 5% discount, only accessories are eligible for the 10%.

    Anyone know where to get a tempered glass screen protector for the 7T Pro? Will 7 Pro protectors fit? (I think the screen dimensions are the same?)

    So big question, when will the price drop ?

    Still on the 5 and even after many drops and a swim in a lake it's still going strong !

    If the price drops on the 7T or pro a decent bit id most likely go for it to treat myself ! :D

    Ordered today for delivery tomorrow.

    The ones on AliExpress will probably take a while to get here, you'll have to deal with them not OP for repairs and the charger won't be uk/irish. Apart from that the phone will function the same.

    No idea on 3 availability!

    Perfect and done except I prefer Parcel Wizard as they deliver to the door ;)

    A bit surprised that the 7T Pro I ordered today has already shipped. These guys have really learned how to run a slick logistics operation.

    Do you think you'll get yours tomorrow?

    I ordered the 7T Pro this morning, along with the USBC earphones to try them out.
    I paid the extra €9.99 for quicker delivery, but I doubt it'll be in my hands by the weekend sadly!

    I ordered this morning too and got a text from DHL this afternoon saying delivery is expected tomorrow. I was really surprised by that, never had it this fast.

    They obviously have some phones stored in the country so as I never heard of anyone getting something from UK the next day.

    Add import duty and taxes onto that too. It will not slip through customs. Just buy from 1+ for peace of mind all round.

    Thinking of getting this myself. Upgrading from one plus 5. Only thing putting me off a little is that j won't be able to connect to my car radio as no Jack and my car doesn't have Bluetooth so any recommendations on how to get around that?

    Think I'll get the frosted silver version. Which colour are most going for?

    You'd need to buy the 3.5mm to USB C adapter
