Is OnePlus 7pro to s22 ultra a worthy upgrade? Or hang on for another generation?

No worries. Main thing is you didn't enter any sensitive information. It's basically a phishing scam.

Depends. What's wrong with your current phone.

Nothing really wrong with it, but it's three years old and I tend to get a new one every three years

I think it's due one more android update, so maybe has a bit more life in it....

Then I'd say yeah wait as long as you can. Main upgrade would be the camera system if that's important to you.

My new order was placed yesterday and it's now showing as dispatched via EE tracking! Yet to hear from dpd but looks like it could be here tomorrow.

Edit: 1 active parcel showing in the DPD app.

 

[e36Adz]

FYI - The DPD app lets you choose a delivery slot as soon as they collect the parcel from EE. I've chosen tomorrow between 12:00 and 13:00.

Evening. The mrs has just had her S22+ delivered. We can’t seem to find a way to hide notifications on the Lock Screen until face unlocked. Can this be done? I can only seem to find an option to disable content altogether but I want to be able to see a preview but only when face unlocked. Thanks!

 

[BananaDunka]

How is this going for peeps? I've come to the conclusion that it is generally all round excellent and have had none of the issue that people mentioned early on. I'm amazed at the lack of smudges/prints etc on the back panel as well. Mine is still scratch free and the Tauri screen protector has been no issue too.

Overall I am very satisfied.

That's an apple feature that isn't available on Android.

You can hide notification content and only show the notification type when phone is locked. But requires you unlock phone to read notification.

I think it's maybe something Samsung don't offer as I was able to do this on my P30 Pro in the exact same manner it works on my 13 Pro Max now

 

[lee1101]

Thank you. Like Kanpai said, she used to have this feature on her old P20 Pro so we just assumed it was an android feature. Never mind!

Early days but since yesterday it's been faultless to be fair. I love the feel of it also but that thing wont get naked unless I'm at home, until then it's in the Protective case!

 

[BananaDunka]

Good to hear! I am half tempted to take the screen protector off some days as I can't get round the fact that my finger rubs against the edge as I'm swiping in since I have a lot of edge gestures actions set up via One Handed Operations+ Good Lock module and my navbar is gesture based navigation too so everything from an edge. Just don't like how any screen protector has that trait although I think a glass one has nicer rounded off edges for obvious reasons so might be a better option going forwards?

strange I ordered last Thursday with EE and was told usually despatched 14 days. I thought fair enough as it’s popular phone and shortage of chips. I rang yesterday to change it to 512GB as saw despatched in 1 day but was told my phone had already been picked.
I saw my sim only has changed to contract as of today despite not receiving the phone yet which is strange and no email sent to say it’s been despatched and I can’t track the order yet as I don’t have an order number only my account under

I have always used a screen protector on my phones until my last phone (Note 20 Ultra) which I ripped off after I caught the corner and it lifted.
Careful examination of the screen around 20 months later is showing a few nasty looking scratches on the curved edge, no idea how they got there either, so the S22 Ultra is definitely having a protector on even though I love using the bare screen.

That is a guarantee your phone will be with your tomorrow. It was the same for me when i got my iPhone Mine did the exact same thing, then the next day in the morning I had txt from dpd to choose my 1 hour slot..

That is good news. I have got three friends with the s22 ultra. 2 of them have been problem-free one on the other hand has had every single documented problem and at one point was going to launch it out of the window. Until he realized how much the phone was actually costing him.
