What did you want to say?

 

mywolf2 , May 28, 2017 :

rude much game offered 15 for a mint op3

 

venkataravi , May 28, 2017 :

Why buy OPO 3T when Omeplus 5 is coming, makes no sense.. Lucky that you guys announced regarding discontinue of 3T.

 

jsb007 , May 28, 2017 :

If you guys will just discontinue it then who would like to buy the remaining OP3T

 

sahil sonii , May 28, 2017 :

updates will come for OP 3 nd 3t...thts enough

 

pcoventry , May 28, 2017 :

Yes - and? Game will always rip people off - Just because game tried to rip you off does not mean that's what it's worth. As I said they are going on Ebay for over £400 still.

Game buy it for £15 sell it for £300.

There is some rumours about pricing and it's not a good news, Oneplus 5 is rumoured to be a 'bit' expensive.

@Steven G., LOL, LOL, LOL... You make me laugh!
Do you remember the promises made to the owners of OPX and OP2?
More than words matter the actions.

This is why the OnePlus 3T is the last OnePlus phone I'll ever buy. The way OnePlus abandons their phones is, quite frankly, embarrassing. I bought the One, and it was an awesome phone with awesome support (by Cyanogen, mind you). I watched the fiasco with the OPX and OP2, and glad I skipped those devices.

To be fair, I bought the OP3T expecting this to happen. When OP3/3T accessories started going out of stock, I knew this announcement was coming. I bought this phone knowing that I'd have to rely on custom ROM support once official support ends. Though I was hoping (and still am) that support will at least long enough for LineageOS to get through the nightly builds. Oh well.

With the OP5 price going to be closer to the likes of Samsung and LG, I'll be skipping it. Might as well spend a bit more for the support that LG and Samsung provide. Then again, there are enticing phones from Motorola, LTE, Huawei, Blackberry and Xiaomi that will be more affordable than the OnePlus 5. There are plenty of options with either a more affordable price or better support.

I really do wish that at least security updates keep coming, otherwise this 3T will be my first and also last OnePlus device. For after all, the update situation is quite bad already. It's almost June and we're still on March security updates.

 

mywolf2 , May 29, 2017 :

i made my point and as for ebay who buys without seeing it in hand before parting with your dosh ok if your selling too risky to buy

 

LebaneseLegends , May 29, 2017 :

I could be wrong, but I believe that an Android device receives at least two major updates for it's life cycle. The 3/3T has only received one.
I think that OnePlus will deliver on its promise to update to Android O!

 

G_SAI_krishna_SNlp , May 29, 2017 :

awesome , superb . and mind blowing

 

pcoventry , May 29, 2017 :

Which is why they have guarantees to protect people.

You talk of risk and yet you also say that Game offered you £15 for your phone, clearly not the brightest in the box are you.

Leave it there.

 

elanglois , May 29, 2017 :

Yeah, they told OP2 and OPX users the same thing. I kept thinking they'd have something any day now. They never came through.

We'll get an occasional security update (maybe - they aren't exactly pouring in now), but I expect most of the stuff in the Beta program will be for the OP5. We're just the Guinea pigs.

 

Devang Kateliya , May 29, 2017 :

After discontinue 3T what about it's service and support...??!! and also system updates...??!!

 

iNtEnSePL , May 29, 2017 :

@Carl will do them with his own hands for you

 

pcoventry , May 29, 2017 :

Indeed.. Look at the Mi 6 for example. beast of a phone, £449 in the UK for the 128GB model, so £10 more than the current 3T price - but when the OP5 comes out and it's around the £550 mark as suggested - it's going to struggle to gain traction I am sure, unless people are die hard sheep, which is possible, it's what Apple customers are afterall.

For those who are not sure what this phone has, Here is a link to it - yes the screen is a bit smaller but it's better. It's also not got headphone jack, but so many people use bluetooth these days anyway.

I have BT headphones, but at least if the battery runs out I can plug them in and use them as normal, so thats a bonus for the 3T and probably the 5 as well.

Didn't they say they at least support a device 2 years, regardless of production? If they don't, the 3T was my last phone of this brand.
