**** The Official OnePlus 6 Thread ****

[biron_w]

The 6 has been out 2 weeks and you're already saying wait for the 6T?

OP's release cycle is a joke.

Not really. No different to what Samsung or LG do with their flagship phones.

Well Oneplus after sale support is pretty rubbish. My camera is faulty so I sent my phone back on Monday. They got it Tuesday and I've heard nothing back since then. It just says they're "inspecting" it. I'd have been better just sending it back for a refund and buying a new one.

what people consider rubbish service nowadays

That is rubbish service when I have only had the phone 5 days. If you pay £500+ for a device literally on the first day of it's release and it's faulty then the issue should be sorted out quickly. To have my phone for 3 days and not even give me an update is just poor service. Google just do you a straight swap.

I'm getting my OP6 back from them today. So just over a week from sending it off. Not bad but I'd still prefer a straight swap seen as I'd only had the phone a few days.

Which TGSP did you get? I purchased a Nillkin one and it lasted 2 days.

I've ordered these after watching a Youtube video saying they were pretty good.

My iPhone6+ is close to 3 years old now and I'm very close to pulling the trigger on a midnight black 128gb.

One question for those on here that have had it a while - is the battery life decent enough? I've heard mixed reviews on it.

It's decent enough for me. Can get 5-6 hours SOT. And a couple of days use if I don't hammer it too hard.

If someone is in your room whilst you are asleep and opening your phone with your face you have more to worry about than a technicality on your phone lol

True dat!

Guys, I'm currently in the US and thinking of getting the Oneplus 6 here to replace my Oneplus 3. I wanted to check a few things.

1. The phone is international right? As in does it support all network bands across the world?
2. Will my Oneplus 3 charger support dash charge on the 6? I suspect yes as they seem to come with the same USB-C cable.
3. Does anyone have a referral link?

1) Pretty sure it is.
2) Not sure but it looks the same.
3) https://www.oneplus.com/uk/invite#EUYO99I3Y25I6XV

I've got a skin for the back of my phone. As nice as the phone looks, having a glass back just isn't practical. It's prone to scratches and it's just too slippery.

 

[biron_w]

I'm getting 6 hours SOT with my phone now. Pretty happy with that.

 

[biron_w]

Yes you should get £20 off.

anyone know if the silk white is ever coming back into stock?

I'm pretty sure it was a limited edition. I may be wrong though.

 

[biron_w]

Do we think the price might drop a bit because of the MWC in the US next month and all the announcements/new products? Do OP have a history of dropping the prices before Christmas and/or they bring out the 6T?

Rumours are that there won't be a T version this year.

 

[biron_w]

Anyone been able to get the latest update via VPN?

Try this I've used it to get updates before.

 

[biron_w]

I have a 256gb 6, wouldn't mind the 6T but i'm leaning to wait until the 7 for a new snapdragon.

Same here. Not shelling out just for a slight upgrade.

I've got it with the above app.

Got to love OP's take on Pie.

OxygenOS is the best version of Android I've used. Just enough tweaks so it feels like stock but has a few nice extras.

 

[biron_w]

Rather have a tempered glass one mate.

All the tempered glass ones I've tried either don't fit the screen properly or they have an ugly black border that cuts off some of the screen. I've got this on now and it's the best screen protector I've tried.

 

[biron_w]

Apparently the 6T is slightly thicker than the 6.

 

[biron_w]

Anyone own the official nylon case? What's it like?

I have one. It's great. I swap between it and Ringke Fusion case.
