How long has it been since you last used ios? Do you own an iPad?

I had an iPad about 4-5 months ago and I have an imac and macbook air. Ios I've dabbled with on my wife's iPhone and i don't mind it at all.

Selling the opo has nothing to do against the device or os as I love both but always said I'd try iPhone again if they gave us a bigger device. They have, I am.

So did I. I love the iP6+ as a device but man, I'm not quite digging iOS 8. I'm really hoping in the next 48 hours I can decide to keep it cause right now it's up in the air.

Hope you're experience goes well and if you do have +/-'s or even want to compared it to your OPO, please share.

The word I'd use is stupid. Yep, that's what it is.

The new iPhone only has a 8MP camera?

Yes. And by the looks of it, no Android camera comes even remotely close. Of course, these people can't gasp that notion that you can't define speed based on cores and GHz, camera quality on MP and so on.

Then again, the One Plus is for them, surely.

Just placed an order for the 64gb sandstone. Upgrading from a Note 2, hopefully this can satiate my thirst for something new.

64GB iPhone 6 Plus $849
64GB OnePlus One $349

OnePlus One needs to up its supply. Say 1 million a month for Western market.

And partner with Amazon.

That will be transformative for the Western market.


Xiaomi is shaking up the Asian market right now. High end devices at break-even prices.

I wouldn't be surprised if Xiaomi will be #1 in China and India in the near future. It might already be #1 in China already.

Xiaomi flash sales in India is getting over 300,000 registrations per week. Too bad, it can only sell 60,000 a week right now.

Do you have to be so condescending when you reply to people? Regardless if you might be absolutely correct, the way you choose to verbalize your words are very off-putting. One thing you have to understand, ignorance is not a deffect. It's only knowledge that has been suppressed for whatever reasons. If one lacks knowledge and your able to supply that knowledge, thus you teach. Just like the knowledge was supplied to you, and I'm sure it wasn't in a derogatory manner.

Yes...MP does not deliver the whole picture. I have a IP6 and I think the camera on the OPO and GS5 are just as good. The GS5 camera might even be better.

That would actually be pretty amazing to see.

If the Amazon Fire had a couple of options made by OPO for their price, it would have sold tonnes.

Very few people care anymore now that the Z3, Moto X, Note 4 and iPhone 6+ are upon us. Plus they're bad PR has somewhat nailed them.

The Nexus 6 due out next month for $399, with next gen specs, higher res screen, and shipping with Android L out of the box. That will for sure put a damper on the OnePlus.

And with already new phones out like the iPhone 6 Plus, the Note 4, etc... The OnePlus One will be old hat, even for the cheap price.

But I think the Nexus 6 for the same price with better specs will be the nail in the coffin for OnePlus. Why would you want a OnePlus instead of a Nexus 6 next month, if both are similar priced, but one has next generation hardware and Android 5.0, and the other doesn't.

Yup

I applaud their efforts but the mobile market is far too brutal. You have to get it right at launch or its game over

So the Nexus 6 will have better specs than the Galaxy S5 and the 16GB will be $299 and the 64GB will be $349?

I hope that will happen. It will be a game changer if true.
