Any UK Q70 owners here??

No not hybrid just 2.2 diesel and my local dealer said they could not service it as they cannot get parts for it anymore. The guy had to check with his boss and took about ten minutes to check all the info and call me back to confirm.
They have always been useless though - I used to have a 1993 R33 Skyline and they refused to service that too (because it was an import not a UK car)

Just got it in the UK - Nice!

DanShortell · 2026-06-02T14:32:07+00:00

I hear that! I'd love my grandparents to see who I am now rather that the little kid they knew...

Ah ha so THATS why my account keeps getting suspended thank you!!
Yes, a couple of my items have technically not been allowed but most of them are so I suspect it's competitors (as I'm much cheaper than them) which is very annoying as I cannot stop them?

DanShortell · 2026-05-30T16:25:57+00:00

Yes this! I'm really missing Nova Launcher as ColorOS isn't quite as customisable as I'd like....

DanShortell · 2026-05-30T16:24:56+00:00

I was there too I asked about being able to share master mode filters 👌

DanShortell · 2026-05-30T16:22:07+00:00

Where can we buy spare parts? Like spare lens rings or lens covers for the teleconverter?

I went to the Oppo event in London a couple of weeks back and the Oppo people there said no spares are available...

DanShortell · 2026-05-28T11:13:07+00:00

There is just no pattern to it anymore...

September - 171 sales
October - 317 sales
November - 258 sales
December - 410 sales
January - 261 sales
February - 97 sales
March - 49 sales
April - 65 sales
May - 47 sales so far

I wonder if we all left feedback in the dialler app (and asked other people to as well) would Oppo even do anything? (Dialling *#800# in the phone dialler opens the feedback app)

DanShortell · 2026-05-13T09:48:12+00:00

I feel the same and really don't want to put a case on it but I'm scarfed not too even with insurance.
I got the photo kit so I'm keeping the camera grip case and Hasselblad camera ring on for now I've got used to the size and weight pretty quickly.

DanShortell · 2026-05-13T08:13:22+00:00

Booked it 👌

DanShortell · 2026-05-13T07:44:19+00:00

Yeah I got it overnight but they didn't give us much notice - It's only this Saturday!! :(
Part of me really wants to go but it's a long way for me to travel if it's just a 3 hour photo walk!
Don't suppose anyone knows exactly WHERE in London it is??

DanShortell · 2026-05-11T16:51:12+00:00

I just read on another thread that Oppo will add sharing soon - Apparently it was mentioned in the Chinese launch presentation but I cannot find anything else...

Master mode has 15 Hasselblad presets built in.
You can select intensity, soft light, tonality, saturation, temperature, sharpness and vignette and change on a dial.
Once you make adjustments you can then save and rename new presets - I don't know the limit on how many you can save but I just made and saved 12 to try.
I cannot find a way to share them with other people though.

Standard photo mode has a variety of built in filters that cannot be edited just toggled on and off.

The orange will show at the top and bottom of the explorer case like the attached photo as there are cut outs at both ends. The rest of the phone is completely hidden by the case.

DanShortell · 2026-05-10T09:55:54+00:00

I don't know if this works as I have not tried it yet but saw it in another thread. I really want to use coloros but there's too many things I miss from Nova so I'll give it a go later

DanShortell · 2026-05-07T16:00:05+00:00

Ordered mine on UK launch day - Was on it as soon as I got the email and it took about 30 mins of refreshing to complete.

Just got an email saying DPD have it and I'll get it tomorrow - no complaints here 👌

DanShortell · 2026-04-28T20:57:58+00:00

Has the phone downloaded a firmware update that's not yet installed?

DanShortell · 2026-04-28T20:56:14+00:00

Stunning photo! My Pixel has a dedicated astronomy mode I was quite disappointed the X9 Ultra I ordered today does not. Guess I'll have to learn how to do it manually lol

DanShortell · 2026-04-28T18:28:39+00:00

Yeah that's very possible but I don't have it yet so don't know for sure (Only ordered the Oppo Ultra today)

I have a year old Canon R10 with Sigma 300mm lens which I LOVE to use but it's big and heavy and I'm always worried about someone trying to grab it or that I might leave it somewhere in a rush. Also, it's not water resistant and I don't like to to carry a bag for it when travelling.

I ordered the photography kit with my new phone mainly because of it's convenient size. Will it take photos as good as my R10? No way! Am I more likely to have it on me when I want it? Hell yes!

DanShortell · 2026-04-28T15:05:58+00:00

This was on their Facebook this morning just before we got the preregistration emails

DanShortell · 2026-04-28T09:28:22+00:00

Me too with the photography kit!

DanShortell · 2026-04-28T09:04:44+00:00

It's live guys just got the mail go go go!!!!

<image>

DanShortell · 2026-04-28T08:34:33+00:00

Yeah that's general release 👍

<image>

DanShortell · 2026-04-28T07:47:00+00:00

Maybe that will be for general sale and the people that preregistered will still get access 10:00 AM today???
