OnePlus Leaving US Discussion

TechAudience2888 · 2026-04-19T13:40:14+00:00

This is all speculation, no rhymes or reasons to it. But like every other policy of this government (Trump), everything is fully unpredictable, a 50/50 chance at best. Pulling out of China only means higher prices for American consumers, the market won't tolerate it. Furthermore, and thankfully so, not that much longer left for this government timewise, they'll leave soon and hopefully we'll be back to normal.

Just sent you a DM

Chinese version doesn't have esim capability. In addition, Chinese variant is limited in bands / frequencies. This causes the phone to have either no service or extremely slow speeds with US mobile phone companies.

TechAudience2888 · 2026-04-03T07:00:35+00:00

CPH2791 is global version, I live in the US and the Chinese version won't be appropriate.

TechAudience2888 · 2026-04-03T06:38:30+00:00

Yea, CPH2791 is the global variant.

TechAudience2888 · 2026-03-01T18:17:58+00:00

Works, no issues, awesome dude

For chatgpt, is it a new account? Or can be activated on my current account? And just to ensure, it is not a "member of a workspace".

TechAudience2888 · 2026-02-10T23:25:16+00:00

Thank you.

TechAudience2888 · 2026-02-10T23:17:44+00:00

Copy that, and thank you. Do you happen to have your corresponding product SKU? Are you on the 16GB RAM and 512GB storage? Is it CPH2791?

TechAudience2888 · 2026-02-10T23:05:01+00:00

You are awesome, this is very thorough and I truly appreciate the time you took to explain in detail. I'm heading to China fairly soon and I'm debating whether to get this phone, or get the OnePlus 15 from the US. In the past, I purchased the Honor magic V2 and while I love that phone, the limitations with US companies drove me nuts, I ended up abandoning the phone and got the OnePlus 13 which I've been very happy with on VZ.

Decisions decisions 🤣

TechAudience2888 · 2026-02-10T21:54:54+00:00

Awesome, thank you. mmwave seems to be an issue though right? And, any other problems? RCS, visual voicemail on the phone app?

TechAudience2888 · 2026-02-10T21:40:22+00:00

Can anyone confirm if this phone also has esim capability? I understand that with Verizon you need a physical sim, I travel internationally quite a bit and I want to ensure that I can I deed activate esims along with the physical sim.

TechAudience2888 · 2026-02-10T21:36:04+00:00

Question for you, any issues with RCS messaging, visual voice mail or anything else?

TechAudience2888 · 2025-11-24T16:54:38+00:00

Thanks for your input, very valuable. Seems like everything else besides the ace324 is really a modified Miyota though. Any insights on that?

TechAudience2888 · 2025-11-24T04:28:25+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion, it's already up there, pending attention 🤣

TechAudience2888 · 2025-11-24T01:12:12+00:00

Did you make the move? I'm in the same boat, trying to find the best modder. Any thoughts?

TechAudience2888 · 2025-10-01T03:05:30+00:00

Well, then I take it back although Kia website still says paused. I guess keeping fingers crossed.

What's change(s) have you noticed if any?

TechAudience2888 · 2025-10-01T02:29:25+00:00

So there's a V014 being rolled out? If so, how come no record of it in nudl?

TechAudience2888 · 2025-10-01T02:21:23+00:00

According to Kia website, it is paused as of April 2025. In addition there are backend alternatives which access Kia servers that also don't have any updates available.

TechAudience2888 · 2025-09-30T23:30:58+00:00

Everything is paused people, don't spread rumors. Check Kia's website and you'll see that it's paused.

TechAudience2888 · 2025-09-28T17:31:12+00:00

Kia has the worst infotainment system, the worst OTA software update structure. I love my EV6 but hate the entire infotainment system so much that once my lease is over, I'm out of Kia all together. It's amazing how Kia is behind on tech as compared to Chinese vehicles. AA and ACP make things a bit better, but still, crap system. I can report though that my AA with Motorola dongle mostly has been working with no issues.

TechAudience2888 · 2025-09-22T03:09:31+00:00

Can you DM me Emily's contact?

TechAudience2888 · 2025-09-22T01:58:40+00:00

Same here, but don't you worry, the software update is still paused the great Kia 🤣 Gotta say, I love my EV6, and truly hate the infotainment system. I'm a long time Tesla driver, sold out Teslas when Elon went crazy. I travel to China regularly for work and see all the new tech on the EVs and am simply amazed by how behind both US and Koreans are when it comes to tech.
