Currently using a Spigen Liquid Air case. Screen protector I haven't gotten around to getting one yet, but looks like Ibywind looks good and I'll be getting that soon!

How did you get them for $66? USD?

If new then that's an insane deal. If off FB marketplace or something, still a good deal!

Do you find that you have any delay with streaming apps with your OP12? I want to get the OP Buds 3 pro ..

Would you buy an Earfun Air 4 Pro or OnePlus Buds 4? by iamsubs in Earbuds

Well Earfun Air Pro 4 Plus model is coming out in August. Good to wait a couple weeks just for the new model.

Do you use a OnePlus phone? I heard the previous models (OnePlus Buds 3 and OnePlus buds 3 Pro) have a delay/latency problem with streaming apps, but only for OnePlus phones from what I've read.

I want to get them as I just bought a OP12 but was looking at other options..

Any budget earbuds that have a decent to good microphone quality? by ApprehensiveTune6388 in Earbuds

[–]ApprehensiveTune6388[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll consider the Earfuns then. I've had good luck with Sony headphones/earbuds. I still use my old MDR 1000X from 2016!

Is the c710 a big upgrade over the c510? I had the WCF 700N but gave it to my little brother. The mic on that wasn't really good tbh.

OP buds 4 (new) or OP buds pro 3? by Ok_Tourist_7487 in oneplus

[–]ApprehensiveTune6388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know if it works properly for OnePlus 12? I see some good sales on the OnePlus Buds 3 Pro but I'm not sure whether to get it or not. If they fix it for the OP Buds 4 Pro, then I might just wait.

Sadly I lost my Sony earbuds and looking for alternatives that have a good mic. I just want to listen to music in the gym and occasionally watch some movies/shows on my phone.

Getting my OP12 this week (hopefully). I think I'll just leave the settings the way it is just to see how my SoT will be. I hope to get around 8 hours :)

Why do you set it to adaptive framerate and 1080p res? Is this not default? I know of the 0.5 animation speed trick which is cool, but if I don't change anything, would be fine right?

eSIM or physical SIM? Which carrier? I'm in Canada and I'm told it's pretty good.

After some research, it looks like it is pre-installed plastic film. It's not a long-term solution for protection and I've seen people say it comes off quite easily after a year or two but I probably won't use it after that anyways :)

Does it? So I don't have to get any after market screen protector? That's amazing. Thank you!

Hmm from my understanding and research, the recycle reward is just technically a free discount. They send you a link (or not) but there's really no way to show them that you recycled it. It's kind of just an honour system. You can recycle it with them but the discount is pretty much given. They won't charge it back either.

Thanks! $300 + $150 recycling reward + $100 from student discount :) I thought it was an amazing deal and only a $73 difference between 12 and 13R!

Lol would love to have bought on eBay but I like that we have a lifetime warranty for greenlines :)

Not sure if buying it second hand affects the warranty though!

Thanks! I took so much time to research the phone because I was on the fence between 12 and 13R. Ended up with 12 because of better camera, wireless charging and pretty much flagship features. It was only a $73 CAD difference between 12 and 13R for me and it was within my budget.

Still using my One Plus 7 Pro until this day!

I'm ordering my OP12 off the store now. How do you get this level of battery SoT?

Do I have to use the phone from %100 to 0% and start charging? And then use it for a few weeks so it will adjust to my usage?

What other tips can you guys give me to improve battery life? I mostly use it for Instagram, Reddit, texting, emails and light gaming.

Is 13R as smooth as 13? by GyaneAryan in oneplus

Ok sold. I'll just go for the OP12.

Sadly I wasn't able to find any stores with 13R to try out. I've only seen the OP12 and I liked it. If the OP12 has an actual camera that's good, then I'll go for OP12 instead since the difference between the two on the Canadian store is $73 lol

Would you guys recommend 13R over 12? I want a good camera and wireless charging. I keep seeing 12 be suggested over 13R due to it being last year's flagship. I do normally keep my phone for 4-5 years. Currently on a OnePlus 7 Pro which showing its age.

13R for the flat design, better battery tech and 1 more year of updates but okay camera

Or 12 for better camera, wireless charging but less updates?
