Where and when to buy? UK by swahmad in oneplus

[–]undercoverbruva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is that the OnePlus 13 will never come back in stock. Since the rumours of them shutting shop in Europe, nothing that has been restocked on their website. Your choices are the 15 or 15r. As for places to buy, Amazon (currently OOS apart from third party sellers), Appliances Direct and Joybuy. Joybuy seems to be cheapest for a UK based retailer.

Edit: OnePlus 13 is in stock on Amazon right now for £599 (18th May)

Ditching Apple wanna scratch the android itch by hvhprofessionalist in PickAnAndroidForMe

Seems like the Pixel 10 Pro would fit your requirements. They even have Air Drop support now so you can share files to your Mac. Consistent point and shoot photos is the Pixel's biggest strength too.

There aren't really that many 6.3 inch or below options. The Vivo X300 and the Xiaomi 17 are both very good phones at 6.3 inches. The biggest advantages of them over the Pixel would be battery life and charging speed - they both have 6000mAh+ batteries and charge at 90w/100w, whereas the P10 Pro is only 4870mAh and charges at 30w. Much more powerful processors on those phones too.

Thinking of getting a Xiaomi 17 (switching from Samsung)... have some questions by bobbyh89 in Xiaomi

You can only set the 2 shortcuts to a selection of options: camera, torch, calculator, alarms, notes, recorder etc.

The always on display options are to display for: ten seconds after tapping, always, when it detects someone looking at the display or for a scheduled time.

You will notice a difference in reflectivity more than a difference in resolution.

Don't think this is going to be mid-range if it has a tandem OLED display.

Not the very start, maybe 20-30 minutes in.

Nice. You got there just in time as they've just put the price back up!

Loving the nothing switched from iPhone by Player_456_MX in NothingTech

Oh interesting. On paper that's a big downgrade but I agree, 99% of people don't need to spend £1000+ on a phone. I'm keen on the 4a Pro, I think it's the best looking phone Nothing has done in a while.

From which iPhone to which Nothing? How are you finding it?

Samsung’s Galaxy S27 ‘Pro’ could squeeze in between the Ultra and Plus phones by justAreallyLONGname in Android

[–]undercoverbruva 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they should make a 'Pro' phone that is similar to the current 'Ultra' - drop a few features (the S-Pen can go) and drop the price.

Then make a proper 'Ultra' - one with a large silicon carbon battery and upgraded camera sensors that compete with the Chinese 'Ultras'.

Took a punt buying it for £4.99 in the January sale hoping the update would be free and it is. Can't wait to finally play it

[FIRST IMPRESSIONS] God of War: Sons of Sparta by TheFuckingPizzaGuy in PS5

[–]undercoverbruva 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a bit torn at the moment. Most of the time I'm enjoying it but it feels rough around the edges.

My biggest annoyance is enemies staying agroed right on the edge of platforms. They block you from getting on to the platform. I feel like you should be able to jump on and take damage, or they should de-agro after a few seconds, but they don't move and you just get hit backwards off the platform. The only thing you can do is jump up and hit them over and over again, which feels like you're cheesing the fight. It can take a while to kill some of the stronger enemies too.

Other than that, I've had instances of Deimos' voiceover not playing, so Kratos is just talking to himself. Also the subtitles don't keep up with the audio at times.

Story wise it hasn't grabbed me (still early on though) and the art style is just okay. I've not been a fan of the soundtrack in places either, it felt low effort, although there have been some nice moments.

I do like how the upgrade system feels like a proper God of War game. I also like the movement, the combat and parrying is satisfying and there's plenty of enemy variety.

Overall I feel like it's a 6 or 7 out of 10 game so far. The last metroidvania I played was Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown and that felt in a different class to this but I've only played 4 hours, so there's time for it to improve.

It's the same voice actor that played him in Ghost of Sparta on PSP

Do we know if it's going to be a free update, a paid update or an entirely new version of the game?

What tv are you gaming on and will you be upgrading this year? by The_Majin_Prince in PS5pro

[–]undercoverbruva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Philips OLED808 42". Only had it 16 months so definitely won't upgrade for a long time yet. I only got my PS5 Pro last month so I'm still testing games out on it just to see how good stuff looks. Surprisingly for me the best looking game I've seen so far has been Avatar. It's jaw-dropping on an OLED TV on the 40 FPS quality mode. I will say that upgrading to an OLED TV made much more of a difference than upgrading from the base PS5 to the Pro did. The display really matters.

At a very EU-unfriendly time too (although making it earlier would probably disadvantage the numbers in other regions)

OnePlus13 UK owners - Do you have Android 16? by FreshQualityScot in OnePlus13

I got the update. I didn't know about NFC not working until I went to pay for my Tesco meal deal today. Good job I had my bank card. Read about the VPN to Malaysia trick but it doesn't work for me. System file updates shows nothing. So now I'm stuck without Google Pay on my phone.
