I managed to cop that oneplus drop. Yay.

Same, Nov 5th estimated delivery. Can't complain for £1.

Just received the OPPO Find X9 Pro from Curry’s - they have a code for £150 off making it £950 plus a charger by redemption.

So far, the phone is incredibly fast and fluid. The camera is outstanding. Better than the iPhone 17 PM.

Any questions, please ask.

I've also pulled trigger on it, arriving Monday. Have had pixels for several years so quite intrigued by what this one is going to be like.

Seriously tempted trading my S23+ in for the Find X9 Pro from Curry's. Only concern is how much bigger and heavier it is. How is the weight of it in the hand and size feel in the trouser pocket?

The hardware is better and the OS is a similar vibe to Pixel. Google keyboard and services installed etc.

More interested in how the software is nowadays compared to more established brands.

Chinese brands are getting hard to ignore this year with specs they've been pumping out.

How are people finding the X9 Pro speakers? I've been reading they're not the best.

10,000 mAh battery lol probably won't be released outside of china

Honor Power 2's insane battery capacity is confirmed

We've never had such a big battery in a mainstream phone. The rumors were accurate, as it turns out, and the Honor Power 2 does in fact have a 10,000 mAh...

The speakers are very good, pretty much the same as my iPhone 17 Pro Max.

That's reassuring! I've been reading people saying they're a bit meh

I tested them side by side today. They are loud, with lots of base and tone.

Looks like there's no quick way to get an X9 pro case, going to have to risk it bare for a while.

Do I buy now with the £150 discount or wait 'til black Friday??

Black Friday might be the one to wait for. Although if you buy via Curry’s - there’s an extra 5% cash back via TopCashback.

I’m a bit disappointed that in ColourOS 16 on the Find X9 Pro Global version you can’t add lock screen widgets.
