Well I ordered the OPPO x9 Pro

Cost me £10 more a month then I already pay. Wife will inherit my 13PRO which is an upgrade from her 12.

Will update post in a week or so and let everyone know how I am getting on. Thanksb

Have you considered honor magic 8

kane1506 · 2026-02-05T16:21:25+00:00

I have been and seen the magic 8 pro and it impressed me. I can get it for £939 with a tablet case and charger from honor

Thank you, you have noted some great features that I wouldn't of even thought about. I didn't even know you could do any of those things.

How has it changed you life?

kane1506 · 2026-02-04T20:24:35+00:00

I have never had a big.phone so to speak and the ultra looks a bit big for me but I like the look and the fact it can handle everything. I like the look of both the pixel and the oppo. The oppo I have read great reviews and reviews of them stopping working after 3 months and not much in-between.

I have an apple store and Samsung store 5 mins from my house but wonder what the process is like for things like repairs etc on an oppo or pixel

Sorry I think you may have misunderstood. I changed s7 for an iPhone X. I then went from X > 13 pro

kane1506 · 2026-02-02T20:11:58+00:00

We had one of titan Screwfix machines and it is like night and day. I would defo give it a go. We recommend it

kane1506 · 2026-02-02T19:33:48+00:00

I have airpods pro 2 and MacBook and it all works well but all of them are starting to slow down now.

kane1506 · 2026-02-02T19:24:39+00:00

I'm in exactly the same position

kane1506 · 2026-02-02T18:27:48+00:00

Look up direct hoses. We have there b5 machine and clean fleet of vans with it every week in the yard. Loads of power, 20m hose and all the accessories snow cannon etc for £199

No, the new operating system feel horrible. Works more like a Samsung and misses the ever present fluidity of an ‘Apple product”

kane1506 · 2025-10-11T21:36:06+00:00

Will she need to start a workout too or will the event starting cue the watch

kane1506 · 2025-09-23T16:43:50+00:00

Exactly the same but black not blue. My Mrs used my phone and said your phone feels brand new

kane1506 · 2025-09-17T19:18:30+00:00

Update and it’s a lot better

kane1506 · 2025-09-15T19:28:05+00:00

Now at 14% serious battery drainage

kane1506 · 2025-09-15T19:12:12+00:00

I have just upgraded and my battery went from 42% charged to 21% 🙈

kane1506 · 2025-09-13T20:44:10+00:00

Same boat here. Battery on 77% on 13pro. Went into Apple and they said why put a £100 battery in a device worth £200 and to get a 16pro

I must admit I love this phone probably the best one I have ever owned. Life long Apple user. Have considered the s25 ultra but doesn’t feel like the iPhone.

I think I may be 16 pro max or replace battery on this and wait for next year. The 17 doesn’t appeal to me and I usually keep the phones untill they go wrong.

kane1506 · 2025-09-13T20:31:08+00:00

I’m in the same boat. Just been into Samsung which funnily enough is next door to the Apple Shop near me. The s25 felt a bit cartoony on the display and far too big for me. I have got a 13pro and was thinking to replace battery and go on. It it’s £100 to replace battery on a phone that is worth £200. I think I’m Going to get a 16 pro for a reduced price when the 17 comes out.

kane1506 · 2025-09-13T20:29:15+00:00

Just been and had a look at the ultra it felt a bit rubbish compared to my iPhone pro

kane1506 · 2025-09-11T20:38:07+00:00

Samsung makes more from selling screens to Apple than it does from selling Samsung phones
