OnePlus 3T

Mine has one. Either that or it's just really good factory packaging :p No desire to remove it though and I don't really notice it there. You'll definitely see if it has one or not though, just look around the main home button.

Cheers Mate. I can't see anything around the home button, looks like mine doesn't have one. Shame really as my OCD's really going to kick in. Need to buy a SP pretty damn quickly! :eek:
 
Question for anyone using Android Pay.. I guess it's more of an android pay thing but as it is about this phone I'll put it here - How reliable do you find it? I set it up a couple of days ago and have since used it to buy a coffee where it worked flawlessly. Have taken a couple of buses, always failed the first time and worked fine the second. Back to the same coffee shop this morning and wouldn't work register their end at first - My app made its little tick and gave me a token but no payment went through - The credit card it's hooked up too worked via contactless without trouble. I'm running the OP Sandstone case on it too fwiw.

Typical of the system or trouble brewing?

I use android pay on my Nexus 6 all the time and it's never failed to just work as intended.
 
On my OPO I used it 3-4 times on London bus. Then the last time whilst getting back it wouldn't work no matter how many times I tried so had to use a contactless card
Was very annoying
 
The only place I have issues in is Greggs as their machines seem to be really slow, I just hold the phone till the card scanner shows approved, jobs a good'un.

Don't do it stoosh. Screen protectors just ruin the look and feel of the slick screen.

Glass one's look bad on phones with 2.5d glass.
 
Mine arrived today, a day earlier than the date on the order - got the folio case and the curved screen protector so it doesn't look it has a screen protector on!
So far so good, screen is great

I can't stand micro scratches. Gotta have a screen protector.

How are people finding this phone that have owned the s7?

I'm tempted to change.

Looks like I can't get one anyhow before Xmas, been into o2 but will have to take out a contract (no thanks).

Had a op3 briefly and couldnt get used to the non saturated display of the op3. Guess I'm used to the vivid bright colours of the s7 screen.

Give it a try though, you will have 14 days to see if you like it :)

I appreciate what you're saying kona but it's very much down to personal preference.

Once I didn't install a SP on a device and wish I had as it managed to pick up micro scratches which fired up my OCD big time! :eek:

I'm forward thinking and when it comes to selling on a device I would like to sell it in pristine condition and a SP does a job of protecting the screen nicely.

I haven't gone for a glass one as I agree it does look bad so I've gone for a wet install SP from Ultimate Shield.

On another note this device is awesome! I love it! You can customise almost everything on the OP3, it's a cross between stock and Cynogen which is a big plus in my books.

EDIT

Spoke too soon. Shame you can't customise the notification light colours to the apps you want. Solutions such as Light Flow, LED Blinker and Light Manager don't seem to work. Boo hoo :(

Try it with the apps directly - for example I set whatsapp to purple in the app and it did it fine on the OP3.

With sRGB mode turned off - it's nothing but mega saturated.

Ok I've gone from being mildly impressed to a bit annoyed. Takes way too long to register payments, if they even register at all, no longer seems to work on buses, rarely works at my local coffee shop. I now just look like an idiot trying to use his phone and having to pull out my card eventually anyway :D The first time I used it I put my thumb to the home button to unlock, put phone on card machine, it registered almost immediately - That's what it needs to do every time!

Going to keep an eye out for any issues regarding the OP3T and NFC/Android pay because it's too unreliable for me at the moment. Shame because it it was one of the main things that tipped me to get the phone over something cheaper.

I've ordered an 3T today. I've used android pay extensively and reliably so if it's not as reliable, that'll obviously be down to the handset rather than the retailers or technology.
