I'd buy this but there's no NFC, feels like I'd be going backwards from my note 3.

​I don't understand the big thing about NFC, it's been out a few years now and no one used it then now everyone wants it !

If you order something and it's delivered damaged. You contact the sender and they deal with it. You shouldn't be asked to deal with it yourself (contacting the courier), that is stupid.

I guess people want it for Google pay? it certainly doesn't bother me, that's what contactless debit cards are for

Ok Hardware but terrible software - stay away

​I don't understand the big thing about NFC, it's been out a few years now and no one used it then now everyone wants it !

I guess people want it for Google pay? it certainly doesn't bother me, that's what contactless debit cards are for

There wasn't much advancement in tech during the initial days of NFC being out but now it's totally changed. You have google pay and payment services and other features making use of NFC out there.

Not bothered about nfc, however that 810 toaster puts me off

​I've been using NFC stickers for years, just takes a quick Google search and a bit of imagination. Just think it hasn't been picked up by the manufacturers as much. My Sony TV has an NFC feature to allow me to control the remote with my phone when they touch. Madness, as I will already have the remote in my hand. See, just requires imagination by the big corps

it's likely because you can now use it for contactless payment. many banking apps have an option to enable it. barclays and barclaycard being just one example

I had this phone and in my opinion it was great. Zero issues with the 810 and it's OS is one of the few that improves on stock android. For this price it is a good deal. Nice build quality too. Quite heavy though. I got a S7 Edge as was lured by features but all pointless Samsung rubbish ruined it for me. I've ended up going back to iPhone but on android now I'd only buy stock or a OnePlus or HTC (near stock now on 10)

I have this phone n software is snappy I love it.

Worst phone I've ever owned. Sold it on after a couple of months.

Too much missing like NFC. Do they have an SD card slot yet ? 13mp camera with no extras isn't the best considering whats released now. I agree with a previous poster. Would seem like a backward step. I'll wait until the Sony Xperia XZ gets down around this price !
Til then I'll just persevere with my Z2

R.I.P

This or Moto G4?

​I gave my wife the Z2 when I got my s7 edge. I actually prefer the Sony and the Samsung doesn't feel any quicker.

I've used this phone with Stock Oxygen and CM14.1 and and it runs great on both

Still rocking a OnePlus One here. Great phones if you get a working model. Not heard great things about OP's customer service, but Amazon should sort you out with any immediate returns.

Oxygen OS

Nothing terrible about this phone-camera not the quickest to focus, but thats my only niggle. Running on OxygenOS.

A few teething troubles but regular updates have sorted all the issues. The software is as close to stock android as you can get so no bloatware. Battery life of 2 days easily achievable with a great camera. I've owned this phone for over a year and it still offers the best value so I won't be upgrading for some time. I paid £300 so £200 is a steal.

​you wouldnt buy another phone from them because of a CS issue over a screen protector (which wasnt even their fault)?? Really?

Did you pay £300 yesterday and price being £200 today is a steal??

​He said he's owned it for over a year! :stuck_out_tongue:

As have I. Great phone but don't buy from OnePlus themselves. Had the fingerprint sensor die for 2 weeks then magically fix itself followed by a complete motherboard failure last month. Took 27 days from the day it happened until I got it back. That made me miss Apple slightly. I was worried they'd claim water damage like they have done with so many repairs, charging €220 or about €50 just to ship it back without repairing.

I got lucky though, I kept pestering them saying that I have taken pictures & videos of the liquid damage indicator before sending and of the phone's general condition and it went smoothly. The repair was done in Poland I think they recently changed their repair company recently hence the fussless repair. If anyone would like to know more about the repair process let me know.

That said, buying from Amazon would make it relatively risk-free for a year.

The phone just got a decent OTA update to a new version of Oxygen OS. The phone doesn't heat up at all anymore and I've noticed it now charges slightly faster. Nougat will be coming soon.

TL/DR; Great phone, buy from Amazon. £200 is good money for a still-competent phone.

Huawei P9 Lite :smirk:

Great deal on a great phone.

Why all negative comments? Thought this phone was meant to be "the balls" with all its specs

It's not daft at all. You would be dealing with Amazon though for the first year so in this case it shouldn't be a big deal.

​Exactly the same experience for me

Is the 4K video alright on this handset? I currently have the Moto X Style and I am about to get rid of it as 4K video judders loads.

I have this phone. And it's the best Android phone I've had since my HTC Desire. everything just works. Always quick.

:confused:

​my point was a general one- not aimed at amazon/one plus. Buying from Amazon in this case does make sense because of their great returns policy. (And oneplus dont sell it now any way). I did this myself only a month ago when they were last in stock-but wouldnt have been put off buying directly from oneplus if they had them. Had the oneplus x with no issues, and no issues buying direct from them for that.

I don't understand the point you are trying to make and also why you are using two question marks at the end of a sentence. The point I was making that the specs do not make it old fashioned even a year on and it represents great value at £200.

​Yeah because of how they dealt with that issue. If I had a serious issue like a phone fault or delivery issue with a phone then I would expect the same terrible cs

Great phone and well worth it at this price. Had mine for about a year and its amazing. Would defo recommend.

£200 for a OP2 is crazy! phone is amazing camera is beautiful and 100% worth it at £200

​Shared SD card/2nd SIM slot :wink:

Great price for a great phone. I paid £240 second hand on ebay two months ago.

NO NFC is a no deal for me.. shame because otherwise its an awesome deal.. if you do not use Android Pay then id say go for it.

Having read a long term review, appears to be some concerns regarding performance and charging. Any one else had these problems? Review: http://www.trustedreviews.com/oneplus-2-review

P9 lite moto G4 or this ?

​same dilemma

How does Moto G4 even compare with this?

Its gonna get HOT in here :smiley:

​i dont think it takes an sd card-just 2 sims. The opx was 2 sims or 1 of each.

​this is slightly bigger and heavier.

And p9 lite is 1 sim 1 sdcard

​But p9 lite avail at ee for £149 (£129+£20 top up).

Is the camera on this any good? Got a note 3 camera so so had a Nokia 925 camera great in low light but will not have a Windows phone again. Camera is the main thing for me!

​takes great pics, but isnt the quickest at the auto-focus (indoors anyway).

​WP L920, 925 and 930 cameras all superior, and even more so the L1020.

​actually the NFC on the Sony TV remote allows you to pair your phone with the TV to use miracast. similar thing to chromecast but built into the TV. makes trying to pair it through the setting menus easier and great for sending pictures straight to the TV.

Having owned a OPO I don't think i'll ever use a Oneplus phone again. Software just a nightmare, as is customer support (Might as well be buying a phone from Gearbest..) Just switched to the p9 lite, and even with a budget phone the difference is stark.

nice hand warmer for winter months, Hot like literally thanks to the snapdragon 810

Some of the comments on here about the software are IMO plain wrong. This is as near to Nexus (now Google) phone as you are going to get. No bloat or samsung-style bloat. Battery gives 36 hour use. Everything is snappy. Dual Sim is useful. Camera is Good (not as good as the latest but its far from bad),No NFC is its only downside.

With this money I can grad a Xiaomi mi5

Good deal...

Had no issues with Performance or charging at all.

and get chinese software and not all bands?

OnePlus is Chinese, you know that?

​I have one, the bands thing is not a problem at all, pretty much get 4g everywhere, it's the providers that are the problem, also it's not in the Chinese rom, there are official global roms.

​I owned one for around 2 and a half years, before anyone accuses my personal account of being "wrong".

Bands are a problem if you're on any of the O2 based networks.

I have one and have had no problems. I had lots of problems with an SIII before it.
I wouldn't do payment through NFC. I don't trust phone manufacturers and backs to get it right. My card will be in my pocket.

the lack of NFC kills this deal, despite the great price, as a phone relevant for 2017.

paying via mobile is more secure and so much more convenient than carrying contactless cards and once you start, you won't ever want to go back (and i'm pretty sure the vast majority of banks now support android pay).

and with coming improvements to NFC payments and other upcoming uses for NFC, i really wouldn't want a phone that doesn't have it, despite this great price.

Depends on the user. I don't care for NFC or contactless payments. Each their own.

Would rather get an S6 new off ebay for the same price.

Is that a joke? You really need to get your facts right before commenting. Cheapest New S6 and which is only 32gb without Micro SD costs minimum on ebay more than £300. So how exactly do you get a S6 for £200!!!!!

Your text here

Next time, do a search before commenting on a HOT deal :smiley:

​That's fair enough, however presumably you'd check first.

This or huawei p9 lite?

Obviously this. Why would you go for the Lite compared to this!!!

This. I'd get this because of the community support for firmware, kernels, etc. The P9 Lite has almost none. Unless you need NFC/don't care about all that.

I've had NFC for about 4 years now I would say, used it once (just to test Android Pay). Easier to use my contactless cards, is the benefit of it that you can show the shop assistant that you have a 'cool' phone? If that is the only reason, it's ironic that people complain about it being missing from some of the nastier branded phones - you would want to hide them away if anything.

this or Moto X Play?

I had the original OnePlus One and it was great. 'Upgraded' to the OnePlus 2, but sold it on after a month as Oxygen OS was awful compared to Cyanogenmod. Choppy and unresponsive and just felt really amateurish.

You do know oneplus is a Chinese brand right?

Still using an OPO and it's the best phone I've ever owned by far. Fast enough, decent battery life even after 2.5 years of medium to heavy use, great software (COS) without any hiccups whatseover. Sturdy as well. The camera is just okay, but this is the only real disadvantage I can see with this phone.

Regarding the OPT: no idea, but for £200 it's probably a good deal if you want to get a phone from within Europe.

Edit: Trying to convince myself to go for a 3T but simply cannot find a good enough reason to retire my OPO just yet.

Bands aren't the problem there, O2 are the problem.

Both are the problem?

Stick CM13 on there and its a banger

Excellent phone, have thoroughly enjoyed owning mine.... no issues at all

Coming from a crappy Desire I should hope so too.

It's definitely a downgrade you also lose:
1. Screen size
2. Micro SD expansion
3. IR Transmitter
4. Barometer sensor
5. Humidity sensor
6. Removable battery
For a phone that's almost 2 years newer, it's not very impressive at all.

Lite is 70 cheaper

id buy this, but Cyanogen is no more.

**buyer beware** the company, Cyanogen, will cease to exist by the end of the year. http://www.theverge.com/2016/12/24/14074496/cyanogen-flail-shutting-down-services

Just ordered one, having owned one in the past, I bought it 2nd hand and sold it a few weeks ago for over 200 delivered made a £50 profit and kind of been missing it, so this is a real bonus, only sold as I was waiting for the Lenovo note 6, but based on specs and price, I thought bargain! Why not, amazon own no hassle warranty is a nice peace of mind feature if it needs to be returned.

Only thing, how long is the phone warranty? I'm guessing 12 months?

Android Pay and pairing with bluetooth peripherals without having to touch your screen. I think I've used it 4 times today.

LineageOS

Voting hot as it seems like the best price for this phone, but surely there are better value devices for this kind of price range by now?

I'd suggest the Nextbit Robin over this for £149, but I appreciate that this device has a tiny bit more oomph!

I prefer 4-64-snapdragon 820 for £139 than this duff snapdragon 810 ROFAL

​The dodgy Android skin puts me off, I'd take the slightly slower processor on G4 with nearly stock android

Would this be a step up from my HTC One M8??

Does the official announcement to end all Cyangen this year and any updates not make this phone redundant

LineageOS

​his point was it's hardly a steal if it's £100 off after a year when there's 2 newer one plus phones out since he bought it.
I have a one plus 3 love it great phone.

it's not a problem if you're not on overpriced O2 paying for all the 'priority moments' BS you're never close enough to take advantage of.

this blows both of those out of the water. the only notable exception is NFC (for android pay)

Giffgaff, Tesco? Yawn

Purchased for my wife, was going to get the wileyfox Swift 2+ but this wins hands down.
I have a OPO and its been the best phone i have ever owned!

Cyanogen shutting down has absolutely nothing to do with the OnePlus Two. OnePlus themselves provide the software for the OnePlus Two onwards, it was only the OnePlus One that used CyanogenOS.

If you're talking about the effect it will have on using the CyanogenMod custom ROM then it's simply changing name to LineageOS and you can carry on using/flashing it as normal.

​which phones are you talking about?

Had a major problem with my latest update cause updating android on every reboot and the camera became fussy as in static in the camera sent it back for repair twice they wouldn't give me my money back after it broke a third time had to get PayPal involved to get my money back

NFC IS TERRIBLE ANYWAY WHO WANTS AN INACCURATE BALANCE FOR DAYS ON END?... TAKES AGES TO COME OFF YOUR AVAILABLE

Comment PayPal cases are very good!:smiley:

point being?, both of those are o2 based, so would have the same 'problem', yawn.

One plus are all unlocked if you want no end of headaches buy it the software and hardware is so flakey but thing is that's what happens when they have absolutely no clue

Battery - I get minimum 3h15-30 screen on. have pushed this to 4h30-45 before. takes around 1h45 to charge from 0-100%.

Screen - Not qhd but a V good 1080p panel. serves the battery well

Performance - Have had this for a year and the upgrade to marshmallow made it even quicker. effortless 99% of the time. no overheating issues per se but it gets a little warm to the touch after gaming for a while
oxygen OS is brilliant - V close to stock android plus a few useful additional features

speakers are not very good

camera - can take some very good shots and the 4k video is also top notch. however don't expect iPhone shutter speeds.

build quality is great. dropped a few times and there are scratches here and there but still functions perfectly

overall a joy to use and would certainly recommend at £200. think I might skip an upgrade to the 1+4 next year as I can see it still going strong around that time

Buggy as hell camera faulty software buggy last update bricked my phone 3 times they wouldn't replace or refund me had to get PayPal involved when I opened the dispute they replied via ticket asking me to close the dispute this is against PayPal rules plus they are just trying to get you to to close a dispute they will just keep on trying to fix if even tho it came back with the same problem don't touch this device with a barge pole

This or the refurb lg g5 i picked up for £280? I haven't used the g5 yet and am thinking of returning partly as its been to their repair center so concerned of ongoing probs.

this kind of comment makes no sense. yes the tech was introduced a few years ago. and as time passes, applications of the tech and its prevalence grows. hence its much greater utility and importance now than compared to the past. i.e. android pay is far more widespread and accessible now, due to the rise of contactless payments and retailers accepting them, banks joining android pay.

so it's normal that now it has far greater importance as a feature to have in 2017, than a few years ago.

good upgrade from a s6 ?

​No way. The S6 is better in every way. The OP2 is a dog of a phone. Terrible battery life, crap camera, buggy software, dull lifeless screen (God you would be sick after the S6 using a OP2 panel), slow finger print reader and no NFC. I was so happy to pass mine on to another mug. I loved my oneplus one though.

This or the refurb lg g5 i picked up for £280? I haven't used the g5 yet and am thinking of returning partly as its been to their repair center so concerned of ongoing probs.

Wouldn't touch with a barge pole, the operating system is no longer supported or updated as of news this Christmas....

http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2016/12/cyanogen-inc-shuts-down-cyanogenmod-in-christmas-bloodbath/

That's the OPO not this phone the OP2 which will get Nougat next year.

This phone runs on OxygenOS

Exactly!

Having to get passed a piece of security (passcode/fingerprint) makes me feel much safer over just swiping my card for wireless payment. Plus I leave my house quite often with only my phone and keys with no need for my wallet.

As stated before Oneplus two uses an in house version of Android called oxygen OS https://oneplus.net/uk/2/oxygenos

Oh God. Why dont you guys read the news and specifications properly.

THIS PHONE DOES NOT HAVE CYANOGEN for god sake stop these stupid comments :smiley:

ive been using NFC this year for contactless purchases via barclays app and android pay

I have NFC on my past 2 phones, never used it

To simplify, those who use their current phone for NFC payments, please don't buy this phone.

Those who dont use NFC for payments and don't intend to in the next year or so, go for the deal. Its too HOT to be here :smiley:

it's been out a few years now and no one used it then now everyone wants it !

A few years? Not really, the OP2 was released in July 2015; less than a year and a half ago.

EDIT: Sorry, ignore my rambling! :stuck_out_tongue:

I had turkey for lunch today

He was referring to NFC not the handset. Read the rest of the thread and you'll understand.

Oops! :laughing:

Me too, I have nothing to compare it to as was my first phone but it is so much better to use than my crappy Apple iPad retina.
What are we to do now Cyanogen is dead?

Watch out for the dodgy FP reader that has been going down like 9 pins and the crappy flawed SD810 that lags and overheats.
Even at the price it's a waste of money there will be little to no support on this device, one of the co-founders of OP has already confirmed this.

This is all getting a bit silly.....!

Incorrect

Well the phone is not supplied with Cyamogen mod, so how does it make any difference?

how can i get access to more data like this about product price ranges

Camelcamelcamel

Terrible software unfortunately. Brilliant specs though. Best option would be flashing it with custom rom.

​i moved to Oneplus 2 from a note 3! and bought a second one for my wife. no more Samsung's for me! Just one users opinion, make of it what you will.

poor battery after couple of months. i had it for one year.

I saw this but eventually went for the UMI Plus E just seems like better spec

Buy iPhone far better than this poop

where did you buy it from and how much?

A iPhone 7? For 599 with lower res, less storage, less screen etc, iPhone 7 is only 300 percent more expensive

At least it works out the box :wink:

I've had a oneplus two, bought it 2nd hand worked wonderfully, flogged it on a few weeks ago for a bit over 200, I was pondering buying a k6 note, but at 203 delivered, what more can you say, so bought another one, recently bought a iPhone 7 for my wife's Christmas present even at 490 (599 from Apple) for someone else's brand new unopened upgrade, I can say compared with her 2 year old iPhone 6 nothing much has changed, even the screen Res is the same, expensive, very expensive, but it was what she wanted, you would not catch me buying one for myself, very retro, they don't even make a dual sim model.

​Erh.......?

I think you just need to read the previous posts to pick up on my comment...

I upgraded from Oneplus two to OnePlus 3, the only differences are the NFC, Screen, Ram, but for me the biggest and best benefit, is the quick charge! Had a few quality issues with the OnePlus 3, whereby the screen went, sent it back for repair, then the handset speaker didn't work as a result of the repair. Oneplus offered me a brand new replacement, which I taken. The customer support is a bit 'weak' (having owned all of the Oneplus phones......) the only problem I've encountered is with the OnePlus 3 (see above). Other than that, pound for phone, these are unbeatable!

​Apologies friend, I get it now. :smirk:

Had the O+2 for about a year now - if i was you get the motorola G4 instead. Few problems with my OP2.

No cyanogen after the one they have had there day cold from me

Hot not an iPhone

oneplus 3T at this price please :wink:

Agree. You just look like a complete tool using your phone to pay. Honestly it's not cool people.

As for this deal it's a great price. I originally wanted a oneplus 3 but couldn't find one under £380 so went with the Xiaomi mi5s instead for £275 which spec wise matches anything out there. For the price it's amazing. For £200 though this is the bees knees.

Damn, I wanted and upgrade and finished with 2 handsets in order... First Redmi Note 3 Pro, now OnePlus 2. Which one stays depends on battery life and camera performance.

Firstly, grow up.

Secondly if you're going to criticise someone, at least be right.

If you are persistent and patient enough, you will see buy it now listings for new S6 phones (often insurance replacements) with warranty, around the £200 mark. Some people just want a quick sale. I got mine for a flat 200 this way back in September, and I'd missed better deals too (you have to be quick).

Next time you want to criticise someone, perhaps you should be the one to do a search first.

For a start, do you know you could use nfc to transfer all the settings from your old phone to the new one? Super easy and convenient :smiley:

Does this phone has got compass? for walking with google maps for directions?
is anyone here can confirm please?

thanks in advance.

​Typical example of someone that doesn't know what they are talking about!!

​Not a problem with o2 or this phone as it works fine on band 20 so know your facts before you comment

Yeah, this should be the international version. IE, this should work on all the networkspecs with all the required bands.

s6 or this ?

Nothing guaranteed to get keyboard warriors squabbling like a phone deal.

Need a new phone, should I think about this or wait till January sales? Do people think there'll be anything worth waiting for at this price or less?

Just ordered the phone.

The reason being I like to flash my devices after manufacturer support has been dropped and I know that people will be cooking up android 11 ROM's for this phone in 2020. So this phone will last me a very long time.

I am currently using Android 7.1 on a Nexus 10 I bought in 2012 (support ended at 5.1.1) and it flies with this version.

OP2 will be a flashers dream :smiley:

Or you can buy a P9 lite and be stuck on the Android version that Huawei leave you with because no dev will be able to work with the HiSilicon Kirin SOC. I have looked over at XDA because I was thinking of picking up the P9 lite during the Orange sale and support is pretty much dead already. That was a big turn off for me.

You do realise android n is going to be the final version of android. They're now developing andromeda :disappointed:

Cyanogenmod have also ended their business as well :disappointed:

Oh :confused:

Well its still a nice phone. I need a 5.5" as my Moto X 4.7" seems too small now. I was going to get a Redmi Note 4 but this seems better in every way for not much extra :sunglasses:

No way I love Cyanogen. Currently running CM13 on my Moto X 2013. So what will happen beyond CM14?

I'm sure Andromeda will be Android in all but name. I'd be surprised if the OP2 could not run Andromeda 1.0 or whatever it will be called.

Interesting times.

Sold my Note for a Huawei P8 Max. Bought it for the BIG screen. Very pleased with it, if you're looking for a mid-price phablet.

who cares what you would get, you son of ....

Stop repeating marketing phrases!
Just because Steve Jobs coined that phrase, it doesn't make it true!

Heat added. Just bought one.

This one or samsung galaxy a5?

Still seems a little pricey for an Android phone, cold I'm afraid

Sorry buddy if you felt offended.

Trying to find a new S6 for this price will be very very difficult if et all it comes by. You have to spend so much time waiting for one and God knows if it will come as i cant see a S6 sold for this price in recent times.

Moreover, ebay warranties are more or less always dodgy unless bought from a retailer which will never happen less than £300.

This item comes next day with prime and you get Customer service from Amazon in case of any issues. So, this makes a better deal, unless someone wants to wait for months and spend sleepless nights trying to get a one time deal which may or may not come by :smiley:

eBay doesn't count anyway. Daft for anyone to make the comparison. It's like when people say 'this Amazon deal is way too expensive, I got one for half the price on Gumtree.' That simply isn't the same thing. A deal for me is is something open to everyone from a reputable source, not a random series of events leading to a cheap private sale on a site with a poor reputation for scams and insurance fraud. eBay don't offer a warranty, you just have the option of making a claim within 6 months. After that, you're out of luck.

Are there new and better ROMs ? Oxygen is a genuine "Meh" but MIUI and Crystalmeth or whatever it's called are still doing fine on the ROM front

Noooo price has gone back up to £249.99. Was about to buy this!

That's the entire reason OnePlus apparently didn't put it in the 2, because nobody wanted it. It's such a cheap and tiny part though, really don't see why you wouldn't include it. Glad the 3 has it, although I have the 2.

I just bought a new LG G4 from Argos for £225 (10% Paypal cashback) but before I pick it up I am wondering if this is a better phone?

I like android pay, alway use it were I can, saves having small change weighing down my pocket

I'd stick with the g4

The quote I replied to, the chap said he has a One Plus One which I also have which does come with Cyanogen which makes all the difference!

Do you know what I should do now Cyanogen is dead?

How did you get the 10% discount please

back to 249.99

yup .. oxygen OS is rubbish

For £200 this phone can do eveything and more, and is only a year old. Are you joking?

why? your bank card does that & doesn't drain battery.

I wonder if the phone was stolen , could a thief spend money using a NFC phone...sounds like double trouble to me ...!

any type of oxygen would be a waste on you !

exactly, one of the reasons I consider no NFC a bonus. Although, you'd probably need to leave NFC switched on for this to happen, but then, if it's not on, it's a PITA to use. And if you have numerous NFC payment apps, how does it know which one you want to use without having to select everytime (ballache)?

Well , I have had both phones....the LG G4 is lighter and offers up a better screen res , nice and fast , good amount of ram , only thing that made me sell my LG G4 was that it was not dual sim..........So if I was you , I'd stick with the LG G4.....nice phone :smiley:

Yeah, at less than a 3rd of the price of a Samsung Firestarter, or an ibrick.

I'm not sure how Google Pay is implemented (probably find out next year when I return to Android), but Apple Pay use is locked to Touch ID (fingerprint), so a heck of a lot more secure than your contactless cards, which can be used by anyone who gets hold of them.

The time it took for Google Pay to be released and even the. I understand it is only on certain phones suggests they've thought of this.

Nope! lol

Well now since we have the phone, does anyone know any good cases and screen protector for it?

Back to £250 now

I have owned this case before and I have re-ordered another as I sold it with my old oneplus two , great case , good value , I bought a tempered glass screen protector from eBay for 1.99

https://www.amazon.co.uk/OnePlus-Case-Full-Matte-Bumper-Protective/dp/B013HN0GEQ/ref=sr_1_11?s=telephone&ie=UTF8&qid=1482930475&sr=1-11&keywords=oneplus+2+case

Missed out on this one!

​so only iphones deserve a rip off price tag?

great got one before it ended. now on the look out for decent case and screen protector.
Apart from Tudia case, which generally are good, anyone know any other good ones?

Latest updates causes network to drop randomly

Does the OP2 have a capacitive centre button or a clicky one?

I remember when I got an S3 I hated the clicky centre button and sold it soon after, but I don't mind capacitive ones. I can live with that.

Only on JIO network in India, hot fix in progress, with a simple manual fix, remove sim, replace with another, remove sim, put back in the JIO sim, fixed

​It is indeed a capacitive home button on the OnePlus 2 which doubles as the fingerprint reader. It works well

It also vibrates haptically to try to simulate a button

Top kek

Ordered two devices, fingerprint reader not working on one.

Amazon have already dispatched a replacement. Aside from this, really like these phones!

Would've been great if it supported NFC/Android Pay, event though I have an older Nexus 5X; having used contactless so much it'd feel like a step backwards.

I've been running Sultan's rom for a while now. CyanogenMod is all good.

The thing that worries me as I have not flashed a phone before are all the warnings about not being responsible for bricking the phone.

Not really sure what One Plus take on this is, if Cyanogen is dead and there will be no more security updates seems like One Plus should be sorting this out.

Looking at the OP forum they have no official options, be warned if thinking about buying a One Plus!

I guess it's so you hold responsibility over it. It's not like they're saying "You will brick your phone doing this". Don't let it put you off. Just make sure you do plenty of reading first and do the steps right. Bricking a phone is quite difficult to do by accident.

I went onto chat with somebody at One Plus and asked them what I should do, it was the strangest conversation ever, either the agent was incredibly dumb or they have been told not to answer the question.

I have turned off updates on the OS as there seems to be some backdoor snooping being planned by the management of Cyanogen.

Think i'll wait a bit before flashing it, thanks for the feedback.

What a great day, my new oneplus 2 has arrived, it is downloading all my apps as I type and the 3.1 update, plus just back from the IMAX, the new star wars film is brilliant

​If you download opera VPN and change your location to Canada, you will receive the 3.5.5 update too :wink:

Don't forget to turn off the VPN after you have the notification though :smiley:

Hi thank you, just tested, but sadly it did not work, but I had read on the official oneplus two forums that they had taken the 3.5.5 update down, due to a pending hotfix on all download servers.

The forum says different along with the long list of repairs and replacements. As for the SD810 it was busted from the day of release every device its in throttles like there is no tomorrow and even Qualcomm eventually had to throw in the towel and go back to quad-core.
Mind you it is winter so it will at least keep your hands warm :smile:, while it struggles to focus on any subjects you try to photograph of.
