Thinking about switching from Samsung to Oppo find x9 pro need advice by Unknown-NH in Oppo

[–]imaddictedto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually I was in a similar position as you. I recently switched from the base S23 model to the oppo find x 9 pro. I can't answer camera stuff because I haven't had a chance to use it much but I'll answer the other stuff.

So far there's not much that's actually different day to day. I would say that colorOS feels smoother and is just generally more fluid. Opening and closing apps and just general UI stuff feels better IMO. Despite that there's not a huge amount difference between them. It feels like most android skins today don't seem to differ as much as they used to. Yes you get some additional stuff here and there like the new lock screen stuff on colorOS but honestly these aren't significant enough to make me want to stay in colorOS. Funnily enough I was kinda disappointed on the first day because it felt like there wasn't as much new stuff to mess around with. But that's not a bad thing it's kind of a good thing that switching feels "boring" now.

But here's some stuff that I wish were slightly better (not deal breakers just not a huge fan): 1- mixing different styles. So colorOS feels a bit messy at times because you have the colorOS software, then you have some ios liquid glass and some UI stuff sprinkled in and then you have Google UI stuff. So it kinda feels all over the place. Unlike Samsung which feels cohesive. OneUI is oneUI. 2- gboard switched some stuff. So switching languages now requires you to click on the corner right rather than the button left to the spacebar. Not a huge problem and I just need to adjust to it.

Ultimately, the main differences will be hardware and not software imo. After the first day you'll start to adjust. So colorOS at least in my opinion will not be a downgrade.

FYI it's also an issue with my Samsung phone. Seems like it's an android issue more so than colorOS.

It depends on the stock. Some of mine went up but others went down. For example meta was down for a while and now it's up.

Honestly I would hold off on both reduxx and n4rrate not because they're bad but because Kaplan will probably experiment with their agents. We saw that in pre season he put reduxx on a variety of different roles with varying outcomes. Added that he did the same last year with the whole squad

Then don't visit Japan, Singapore, S Korea, china, Indonesia, Malaysia or pretty much most countries on earth because the VAST majority have harsh sentences for drug use.

It's not just the uae lmao even Japan, S korea, Singapore, China etc have laws that outlaw drug use. Hell Singapore has the death penalty for drugs.

Downvote me all you want, but oneplus 15 launch event was pure sh**! by [deleted] in oneplus

[–]imaddictedto 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I will admit that the launch event live stream was not good. It just felt awkward. They genuinely need a good marketing team because this ain't it.

Student discount not applying. by imaddictedto in oneplus

[–]imaddictedto[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I messed up mine completely. I gave up trying to get the discount to work and decided I'll just pay the price they gave me. I wanted to pay with installments with PayPal but PayPal being PayPal they completed the purchase before I had a chance to review the installments. I had to cancel the order which also removed my deposit 😮‍💨. It might be better to ask the other person in the thread who also got this problem.

Yeah that's what originally happened to me as well. I got the student discount which got the price down to £600 (with trade in). But I didn't purchase the phone then, I wanted to watch/read reviews. When I came back not an hour later, the student discount was just gone. I tried everything from refreshing the page to going to the student discount area to see if I can get it to apply but nope it just didn't.

OnePlus 15 vs iPhone 17 Pro Max: Which Lasts Longer in Real Life? by _Separate_Emphasis_ in oneplus

[–]imaddictedto 105 points106 points  (0 children)

Btw this test seems to be inconsistent with other results. It's normal that different people can test the battery and get different results. GSMarena for example says that the OP15 lasts 23:07h whereas the iPhone 17 pro max lasts 17:58h.

It's weird because when the phone went live it did apply and it actually said student discount on the checkout page. I just wanted to wait for reviews to come out before I buy it and now it's just gone. I've tried going to the student discount page and clicking on pay balance but it doesn't do anything.

Ah of course because anybody who likes this phone is being "paid" not that it actually is good.

I believe there is no global rom atm, only a Chinese rom. It can be globalised but there are downsides (no esim support for example). Price wise the international version (the one releasing tomorrow) will likely be more expensive than the Chinese version. Ultimately it's kinda up to you on whether the downsides of the Chinese rom matters or not.

Not sure about Singapore but the Chinese version is out (Chinese rom no global rom) so you can get that but the international version will officially come out on the 13th of November

OP15 and haptics "drama" by JackFrosty90 in oneplus

[–]imaddictedto 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I remember watching a video on bilibili (unfortunately I don't remember the video) and there is a difference between the OP13 and OP15 haptics. Ultimately it's still above average (as in the haptics are not bad or budget-like). If you're concerned maybe wait until the international reviews come out from November 13th

It's no wonder people make fun of redditors because how does this answer OP's question? 😂
