One Plus Nord

Went ahead and ordered. It's time to replace my Samsung S8 that I've had for over 3 years. Battery is useless.
And I no longer need flagship specs.
I just use my phone for calls, messages(WhatsApp), YouTube and work smart roster.. Don't do social media or gaming.

Now I just need to wait, 4th August
 
Just ordered one for the mrs, £349 from Amazon can't be sniffed at.

Granted, I would have personally prefered a single front camera, and a single rear camera with 6gb ram, 60hz screen for £299 but happy enough.

If you managed to get your £20 preorder in with oneplus last week, you could have bagged a free pair of the new buds worth £79

90hz amoled on a 350 quid phone seems pretty decent along with the rest of the specs, good moves from oneplus :)
 
Another thing it supports hdr10+ if anyone cares. Checked gsmarena earlier on, and they've update info. Yesterday the was no info about hdr10 support.

It makes the oneplus 8 a confusing buy

Latest SoC, more ram in the "base" spec, stereo speakers, UFS 3...

Those features aren't worth £250 to me but they could be for others.

Too big for me anyway, shame they got rid of the X's form factor :(

I thought both nord and 8 both had 8gb ram

The X was a great phone I thought, although not people liked it
 
Very tempted to pull the trigger especially at £350 but having used my S8 for the last few years its frustrating that all these new phones are massive. Any sub 6 inchers (oi oi!) Worth a recommendation as similar proce point?
 
Feel like I want to upgrade my Galaxy S8+ for this. But comparing specs I don't think I'll benefit.

Battery is getting a bit poor on my S8+ but I think a nice factory reset and I can extend another 6-12 months of use out of it unbelievable I've had it 3.5 years! That's gone quick.

I'm currently using a S8 and battery is very poor. I need to charge the phone twice a day to get me through just a standard day. And like u i've had it since Day1.

It's time to move on. I no longer care about flagship specs. As long it has fast charge, decent camera decent screen i'm happy. For the price i can not complain.

Plus. OxygenOS is excellent. And once you've used the alert slider you'll wonder why more phones don't have it.

Yes I've heard so much positive about OxygenOS.

Exactly how does the alert slider work? Is it similar like the iPhone?

Yep - only better as it has 3 stages - Sound, Vibrate, Silent (from memory - don't have a OP device currently :) ). Wish all Android devices had this feature tbh
 
I have one on preorder but will probably cancel it, it's just gonna be too big I reckon.

Plus no headphone jack...
