One plus 7

[Davie_GLA]

Afternoon. I’m right at the end of my contract and I loved my one plus 5.

O2, because they are largely a pain in the arse can’t tell me when they will have it.

Added frustration is that I need it within the next three weeks. Am I just buying the thing outright?

I’ve bought all my OnePlus phones rather than gone for 18, 24 month contracts. Sim Only Pay Monthly contract. Job done!
I bought my first two from OnePlus, the last one, a 6T in November from John Lewis.
I’m sure you could sell the 5T to chip a bit off a pricey upgrade.

I bought a 7 Pro as they were released last Tuesday, direct from OnePlus.

8Gb/256Gb jobbie.

So far, so good

The plain 7 isn't available yet on their site... Not sure when it will be.

Why not just keep the 5? Or have you got something else at the moment?

I'm keeping my 3 for another year I reckon. Still quick enough and they just upgraded it to Android 9 Pie!

Just get a sim only deal. Buy direct from OP....avoids then waiting for O2 to get their arse in gear with updates.

it's damaged unfortunately and using an iPhone 7 at the mo. i suppose i could get a new screen for about £50 and then sim only that for a while. it's still a great phone. And i miss the dual sim capability.

Sim only and buy it.

Amazon have the 6t for £439/6gb/128gb - £469/8gb/128gb - that's about £150 off from when I was looking at them in March. Some of the features from the 7 series like Zen/Fnatic/screen recorder are being released for the older handsets too. Superb phone for that price.

Thanks all. i went with a 6T in the end. Arrives tomorrow.

Only the Pro came out last week.

What are the differences between the two? I can't find anything definitive.

I know it was me who said the 6t was a good price currently, but you might want to return it and wait for the 7 as its only £499/549 for the 6gb/8gb version - apologies, I thought it was going to be £549 for the 6gb model
I'd imagine the 6t will drop further when the 7 is released, but it'd be daft to get the previous model when it's only 60 quid less.

[Davie_GLA]

Hmm, i think i'll stick with the 6T. It's just the right size and going be the below it really isn't that far behind what i need.

My guess is suppliers will just be running down existing stocks of the 6T as OnePlus will only have the 7 and 7Pro on sale. However this year is the first time that OnePlus have had more than one model launch.

I wouldn't surprise me if see a three phone range come the end of the year. I am planning my upgrade my 5T with what ever they release in November. The 7 maybe absolutely fine for what I need and if that means I pay under £500 then that is a win win

AIUI, the third phone will be a more expensive 5G model.
Wouldn't be surprised if there's no autumn 'T' release.
