...and she's here.

Very very nice. I even like the supplied free case.

Looks like mine is stuck on 7.0 with the Dec security updates. Just did an out of the box update, which only took me to this level. Might have to try the VPN trick that I've seen mentioned. Has anyone had experience of this?
Congrats :)

What comes to updates, mine updated to 7.1.1 with March updates pretty much straight away.

Anyone ever checked out the OnePlus forums? It's like a horror show in there lol. Phone has shipped and still says expected delivery 7th, I can't wait another 2 days. :eek:

Huh, not sure how I feel about that. It looks cool but don't think I would ever buy a chrome finish phone.
Take it from someone with a similar finish on my Galaxy S7 Edge...it looks gorgeous but you do not want to be using that's phone outnin the sunlight without a case! :cool:

The sandstone case feels nice indeed :) I got one as a launch day bonus for the Midnight Black version, but it wasn't until today when I tried it as I was using a wallet case. Also the silicone case that comes in the box for the Midnight Black version is surprisingly nice.

Waiting for the 4 as well, as I am very satisfied with my OP3 since 10 months now...

Wondering there are no leaks around, as it should be announced in about 2 months following their release schedule.

Just installed OxygenOS 4.3.1 update. The camera improvements sound enticing, have to give it a good try soon :) Unfortunately April patches weren't included yet, but March is quite OK still. https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/oxygenos-4-1-3-7-1-1-ota-for-oneplus-3t.517780/

Same here. Had to set the VPN to Canada for the update to be picked up.

Hoping it goes some way to helping my battery issues. Since getting the midnight black edition I'm having to top up in the evening.

Seems like OnePlus likes Finland, as I just had to check for updates. I typically top up my Midnight Black 3T at some point during the day, but so far I've attributed it to heavy usage and e.g. Pokemon Go. Anyway, with Dash Charging being as fast as it is, it's not much of a problem. Just yesterday I tried Dash charger in a commuter train. I charged the phone for 18 minutes or so and went from 42% to 72% during that time.

Looks like the latest update did indeed improve capturing moving targets. Both kids were moving, but they're captured sharp here. Granted, lighting was rather optimal in this case.

Edit: Image butchered by Tapatalk replaced, it should be better in full size now, even though I had to scale it down for the forum software to accept it.

I impulse-bought one of these today, 128GB in gunmetal. Quite impressed with it although I had to use Opera vpn set to Canada to get Nougat.

6GB RAM seems overkill but hey, I suppose it can't hurt.

When printing such a large ad placed in a central location (this is at the main railway station of Finland's capital Helsinki), doing one final grammar check before printing wouldn't be a bad idea
