[Q] Release of Oppo find 7 - Oppo Find 7 and 7a

Hey guys,
Is the date already published for the release of the find 7 (premium version) ?
I mean the 7a is already available so it should not take so much more time.
Any news or website which is up to date and can inform me directly in the case of release
Thx

I think I read late April, but I can't remember where I saw it!

Ok. Thanks.
But isn't it a little bit strange that there are no information about a release ?!
I mean if you are right and it will be released at the end of this month there should be anything official or not ?

They keep it secret because they want to sell some 7a's first I guess. If you ask me I don't even know why they made a Find 7a in the first place.

I think the QHD screen still needs some tuning/calibration work from various rumors I've heard.
The 7 doesn't have enough extra CPU power/battery to drive the extra resolution without performance/battery life compromises anyway, so it's going to be for the "spec epeeners" - the 7a will be a superior day-to-day device.
The 7's screen will require almost 2x the memory bandwidth and GPU power to drive its display compared to the 7a.

@Entropy512 Thanks now I am convinced that I made the right decision to order the 7a and not wait for the 7.

while what you said is true, I'm still having some difficulties accepting that since even the weakest integrated graphics from 2010 desktop PC can manage to handle daily PC operation even with UHD displays, I don't play heavy games on my phone, so is it absolutely true that the 801 will struggle with QHD display even just for average phone usage???
battery life is another matter though, true.

It's twice the pixels but not power since each one uses significantly less. Still it's going to be more, xactly how much more power won't be known into they can be compared. The screen isn't the only thing pulling more power, the extra ram will be a user as well. I would be looking to the a for sure if I was a 3d gamer but I'm not. I'm taking a wait and see approach.
While the extra resolution may be worthless to some it is not useless. It allows you to blow up the screen more. When you whipper snappers get older you will appreciate that more than you do now.

I thought so too. Thats the reason why I have pre-ordered a find 7a today
And like it seems many guys in different popular forum are doing it like this.
I mean the 3gb of RAM would be nice, but like everyone say it is not needed. Also the 32gb internal storage, because you have a sd-slot.
A further thing is that the bigger battery also fits in the 7a (epic)
And if the 7 is published I am going to buy the backside, which hides the battery, because I like the carbon or carbon-style of it
The only thing which is worth to think twice is for me the fact that my HTC One M7 has a PPI of 461 and the 7a has a lower ppi (401) with the same resolution :/
Any opinions/ recommendation ?

Quick question... for those of you that preordered...did u get charged right away or will u be charged when it ships??? I'm ready to pre order this but wanting to know if I'll be charged now or later...

What do u exactly mean with "charged" ?
That you have to pay tax or that the money will transfered of your bank account ?
I have payed with paypal and I received a message that its transfered immediatly
But I am not worrieing....its Paypal so I am able to get my money back

I guess u just answered my question... I meant as in the money being taken out of my account.... I'll be paying through PayPal as well so at least I know it's gonna be withdrawn immediately.... thanks for the input...

Life is always trade-offs. I was used to carry an extra higher capacity battery for the Note 3. On my current HTC One (M8), it is hard to believe how much better it manages battery, even not using the stock power saving settings. (not missing that extra battery when on travel.

As to the shipping date Oppo responded to an email stating that it would likely be at least early June before product shipped. Since the screen supplier just now has started production of the screens we know those are not in hand yet implying April is certainly out. Oppo has their own forum where there is a little more information available than here for the moment, some of you might be interested in taking a gander. http://www.oppoforums.com/forums/find-7-product-discussion.111/

Oppo Find 7a - end of April/early May

Is there tax? I live in Canada so I am wondering how does the tax work for that product.
Do you think there will be import charges?

I preordered by oppo style europe. They are in the UK so in this case I Do not have to Pay tax. But if you are ordering directly from China you have to Pay.

Find 7 now up for pre-order in US & EU

Details on the link.

Pre-ordered mine last night, also got the Ilike charger with it too as one of the first 1000.
Pre-ordered mine aswell!
I preordered mine too, looking forward to it!
Picked up one as well.
On "Back Order" though! I bought it pretty quickly too, this morning around 12am GMT - 4.
How disappointing, hopefully it won't be too long before I get the Find 7..
EDIT:
It would be great if you guys give us a shout when you get the shipping confirmation sent to you.
That way we can see how long it took, and when we can expect to receive it.
I pre-ordered too, but on backorder

The fact that the 32GB model of this is actually going to be easier to get in the UK than the G3 does kind of make wonder about changing my order.

I believe pre-order and back-order are really the same thing in this situation.
I'm just hoping they're accurate about the Early July time frame.
Thinking about ordering mine next week with the 10% discount offer, but I'm quite wondering when the shipping date would be. Could it be as early as Friday 4th July?
can student and facebook discounts be combined?
Nope that's not possible. It's written on the student discount FAQs somewhere...

Hasn't been a problem... I have a few games with 1 - 2Gb data files but these are stored outside the app partition with only a small amount of data going there... Have around 100+ apps installed and counting with things like co-pilot requiring around 300mb, Dungeon hunter 4 requiring around 900mb and a couple of Sonic games requiring almost a gig apiece...
I might run out eventually but I can say the same about my 32Gb Note 3...
I have the X9077 32gb Chinese Find 7.... Flashed with international rom and it works fine here in Oz with all google apps running and all the chinese versions of the apps gone...
WOOHOO! "Preparation in progress"!
Anyone else received the "Preparation in progress" order history?
I hope it comes soon! Any guesses as to how long it would take before they ship it out?

Has anyone gotten a new Nokia N1 running Lollipop yet?

Although for the Chinese market, I would love to get my hands on one here in NYC to see how it turned out compared to their Winblows based devices.
I got it ... Its nice in look ... But I just found that the headset is not working ... I just tried to use iPhone headset but doesn't !
i got one.
@ran816 the headset is working after an update (a couple of updates ago)
Does anyone know where to import one from? I really want one but I don't want to pay $450 off ebay for one.

Yeah, I tried asking all of the sellers if they would accept any offers but they all said no. I'm willing to pay 300+ shipping which is reasonable considering that's a 20% profit for them give or take. I just can't justify that much of a markup for something without a good reason. It should he released in Spain/UK soon anyway.
I had a Nexus 9 but I wasn't a big fan. I liked my Nexus 7 2013 more than the 9 by far. I used to also have a LG GPad 8.3 and I loved it until I broke it. I'm hoping this will be a good tablet to fill the Gpads slot now that I'm tablet less (unless my Nexus 6 is a tablet )

Where do they ship from? Are they a reputable vendor? I realize other members have bought one from them but I'd rather be on the safe side
I bought a Nokia N1 about a week ago from China. Already got 4 system updates. Out of the box was 5.0.2. Latest build number is A5CN410.
The build quality is unbelievable for the price range. Not to mention the screen. Only one issue, no Google Play Services, yet.
I bought the nokia n1 on this site: smartophone.com
it works very well, but still not google apps !
Nokia N1 ,Chinese Edition.
I've got one ,but it sucks by now,'cause it ships without google service,a lot of apps works incorrectly on it .
I bought mine on Amazon...Google Play Store right out of the box. Be sure you get the Taiwan version!
Loving it so far!

Are the N930FD battery issues-free?

Today I ordered N930FD and it will come tomorrow.
Are the duos phones with no battery issues or they are also prone to blowing up.
I suppose that this phone might come from a new batch and it will be good, but will the IMEI checking websites show me if there is an issue?

Where did u order your FD from? I returned my previous FD back to the eBay seller due to recall. I really want to buy another FD without the battery issue.

I like to think my battery battery is safe. I've not run into any problems since August 15th when I received the device. I don't plan on exchanging it either until I see the slightest hiccup if any kind. Goes to show how good the FD version is.
ANY device may have an affected batt, go safe, exchange
I ordered it from a local store and canceled the order because I checked the IMEI before purchase and it was from the affected ones :/

You won't see any "hiccups". Having your Note 7 run hot isn't a sign the battery may be bad, nor is battery drain (Unless it's draining at like 1%/Minute or something).
As soon as the battery develops an internal short through the separator (if that truly is the issue) it'll rapidly heat, develop more shorts and catch fire internally. Despite what I keep reading there's not going to be any signs, the batteries aren't overheating at all, and they can operate normally up to like 50*c or something. They will overheat once they've caught fire though. So suck it up and go and replace it. You cannot know if yours is bad.
I just found this online shop in SG selling the new batch for less than 800 USD. I am going to order soon

OPO Battery Replacement on Amazon India?

I've been looking for a replacement battery for my opo, but the service centers in Mumbai have got nothing since October 2016.
At this point, I'm willing to try out an unofficial battery, but still want to restrict to Amazon India and not AliExpress. Anyone had any good experiences with the ones on Amazon India?

I don't think any other battery can compete to OPO's original battery.You can see many people having issues(almost) with custom made batteries,independent of the Buying location.
I've tried some from eBay.in but they all are having one or another issues..same as other user reports.Literally there're several theads in this forum for battery issues after replacing.
If there're not much issues,stick to the original one and if it's much necessary then you can go with any one,but be ready to face issues and less Sots,irrelevant issues.

I've been wanting to pass on my OPO to my younger brother who's been using a N4. But I've abused the OPO's battery to the point that SOT would be around 3hrs at best.

Even after making many charge cycles on new battery,you'll only be able to reach around 4-4.5hrs but not more than that.
If my OPO's battery degrade like that,I'd better consider buying a new device.

My phone is around a two years old (I bought it after Amazon India took off invite system on the phone). But my initial year of usage was very heavy and reliant on frequent charging/discharging.

Link to the battery?
Also, I would not believe all that is written on Amazon as under "warranty". I've purchased far too many Chinese products under "warranty", but when the warranty expires, you need to send in your product at your cost to some remote location for analysis. The 'analysis' usually ends with the manufacturer saying the damage was caused by user error and will ask for money as high as the product price for 'repairs'. This is considering you're lucky enough to find where the 'warranty' address is, most just won't answer the calls or provide any information.

Worth buying?

So I'm looking to buy the Snapdragon model of the S20 about £530 / $660 https://www.tecobuy.co.uk/en_UK/samsung-galaxy-s20-g9810-12gb-128gb-dual-sim-5g-cosmic-grey-4.html (not sure how reliable it they are)
Is it still worth buying? Are there issues i.e. battery life, camera quality.
Best phone I ever had.
Photo, phone quality, features.
Battery life is good, I have the Snapdragon.
You won't regret at this price.
Absolutely worth it at that price. I have the CDN version (G981W, snapdragon) and got it for $1650 CAD and love it, just wish I didn't have to pay so much for it.

I recently switched from my iPhone XS Max and completely happy with this phone. No buyers remorse in any way.
The Snapdragon model doesn't have any custom rom support does it?
Anyone using tempered glass on theirs?

Don't bother with tempered glass screen protectors unless you want to go with a Whitestone dome, the cheap ones are trash.
As for roms, there are none other than a GSI . And you need to have a non-NA snapdragon model that is bootloader unlockable.
Personally I don't miss root ..a few things, sure, but not enough to make me regret picking up this device

Hi, I use this site for buying https://eu.etoren.com/products/samsung-galaxy-s20-5g-dual-sim-g9810-128gb-grey-12gb-ram. I am from EU and they offer no taxes and customs since they have EU warehouse. It took 7 working days to arrived.

That's still pricey for me. Came across another website but again not sure how reliable they are https://bludiode.com/en/phones-and-...dual-sim-12gb-ram-128gb-5g-cosmic-grey-11947/

So I'm looking to buy the Snapdragon model of the S20 about £530 / $660 https://www.tecobuy.co.uk/en_UK/samsung-galaxy-s20-g9810-12gb-128gb-dual-sim-5g-cosmic-grey-4.html (not sure how reliable it they are)
Is it still worth buying? Are there issues i.e. battery life, camera quality.

Awful.

Went for but it was £550, guess should of went for it when it was £530. Paid with PayPal so if anything, I'll get my money back.

When did you order?
Let us know how it goes. I was tempted myself but the reviews scared me a little

Ive decided im gonna go to the Samsung shop this week and buy the S20+
I know they are like £899, but I can have some peace of mind it's genuine, it will arrive and I can get it quickly.
Just not looking forward to transferring everything over
Yes I did going for, it gets getting ready to be dispatched
