U.S. unlocked 8 pro vs Amazon 'with Alexa' 8 pro - OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers

I understand there are no differences with the hardware, but, are there differences with the software or bootloader? I'm considering buying from Amazon, but not if it means slower updates or any kind of bloat that can't be removed. Does anyone own one of these yet that can speak to this? Forgive the ignorance, but I'm coming from LG and Samsung phones and I have never owned a OnePlus device.

I ordered this phone and I don't think there's any bloatware on it. The website says it has Alexa functionality but says you need to install the Alexa app or something to access it. If that helps.

Hi,
I have a OnePlus 8 Pro bought on Amazon. This is the same international model than those sold by OnePlus. I have had every OTA as soon as everybody on XDA

Thanks again. My order from Amazon says it will be delivered by Monday. Looking forward to getting this phone. Are you running 10.5.6, or is the Amazon version different than the the unlocked 8 pro direct from OnePlus?

Thank you, that's great to hear. I ordered mine from Amazon, it will be here by Monday

I'm expecting a 8 Pro on Monday too - been using Samsungs too long, looking forward to going back to OnePlus. Been a long time since my 3T.

How did you order it? Meaning, what was the site you used to order from China? Which model did you order?

Thanks, I think I'll wait until January. they're already sold out on the first shipment. Maybe it'll be available more widely after the new year.
Hey guys I just got one yesterday. Pretty satisfy so far. This phone is FAST!
One issue though, I cannot get Google contact to sync. Anyone can give me some pointers?

I know Benchmarks don't say much but how does the device compare to let's say a note 3 (which I got now) and what does emui 3.0 feel like? Is it just like MIUI or looks like that but the experience is different? Just asking becouse miui is very fluent in usage. Thanks in advance.

* How does it feel? Does it feel natural at 6.1" in your hands?
* is it heavy? How does it compare to the Note 3 or other comparably-sized device?
* Does it fit in your pocket easily enough?
* Does it work well-enough with EMUI 3.0 with one-handed operations?
* I know you only just got it, but could you report back in a few days after continuous use about how the battery fares?
* Are you going to try it with a few games to see how the processor performs?
* Did you do any download/upload speed tests?
* Where are you located and were you able to activate it with no issues on your network?
* Was the device difficult to set up?
* How is the charging? Does it take a long time? This is something that hopefully you'll report back about in a few days after charging the device a few times.
In terms of your Google contacts sync issue, what exactly is the issue? You need to give more information about what is "not working" before we can offer some help. The first suggestion I'd have is to delete the google account you created on the device and recreate it.

I used OPPO N1 and Note3 last year, the weight is note3< mate7<N1, it's not bad. But holding it while laying face up is kinda hard xD hands get shot easily.
Yeah it fit my Levi's pocket pretty good.
One hand operation is okay in EMUI, if you have the xposed mod fly android installed it will be way better.
Games work fine as the GPU is pretty mainstream.
The phone I got is the CMCC version. Only works on TD LTE network in China but can be used on FDD LTE or any other 3G/4G in other country. I think if I can flash the China Unicom version's modem it could work on FDD in China to as the hardware support it. I'm planning using it in Canada on Bell. Will test it out on 22nd when I get back.
Set up? What you mean by set up?
Charging takes around 3 hours from nearly dead battery (10%-ish) to 100%. With my four ports universal charger it takes longer, maybe 5 hours but I'm not sure cuz I was sleeping

And the phone feels good, really good in hands. It feels very solid and slate. And didn't feel too huge like the OPPO N1 which is also 6 inch.
Haha thx freefrank for answering them for me. The phone itself is pretty light, feels much lighter than the Mate 2.
Well under my Google account, I see sync for everything, such as app data, calendar, email and even people. But I don't see contact there. I tried to look into the Huawei store but no luck. Freefrank are you able to get contact sync? if so did you need to do anything special? Please let me know. Is there a googlecontactsync.apk I need to install?
Is there a built-in contacts app that would work? Can you use one that comes with the device to sync your google contacts?

I found a Chinese retailer that ships to the US, the price including shipping using DHL wasn't actually bad, total shipping time was 3-5 days. Actual "wait" time was 45 days. I'm guessing they're taking pre-orders.
From everything I've read so far, this isn't due to be released until Q3 which is the only date I've seen from a lot of the press and Huawei. Does anyone have when these will be sold or at least available to be sold?
I think I'll wait until January to see if I can get a device for myself. By then software and hardware and possibly sourcing issues should be a little better.

Are you sure? All the reviews I've been reading say that the gold version is for the 32Gb version only and that the 16 comes in multiple colors. I'm not doubting you, but the Chinese retailer was only offering the gold in 32Gb. Maybe that was why it was delayed 45 days?

The only color available for the 32GB model is gold, while the 16 GB model comes in black or silver. I must add that it is in VERY limited supply right now, even the official stores don't have any yet until October at the earliest. For those that do have then in stock, only the 32GB version seems to be in stock.
When I was there I saw 4 people bought one while I was testing my unit, and before I left the store they already out of stock and had to turn people away.

Safe way of getting a 6P outside of the US ?

Hey,
Okay, so I've been using the Galaxy S2 for god knows how long and I really need to move on.. and also the fact that its battery is dying for the third time... that helped me to take the decision to go with the 6P.
There's just a major problem, I'm neither from US nor Europe... and I don't wanna pay 200$ or 300$ extra just to get it.. because the only reason i'm buying it is it has a great value in its current price..
I have seen a few nice forwarding sites, like fishisfast and usgobuy and they do look promising... I can buy from the Google Store and ship to my country and that would only cost me about 50 bucks more.. which is great...
My only concern is defective units... I've seen so many complaints on the forums here about defective units starting from the slight pink screen to speakers and the list goes on... and I'm afraid that If I receive a defective unit i won't be able to get a replacement...
is there's any safe way of getting the 6P without compromising warranty or paying like 200 extra bucks

From a returns standpoint I'd easily prefer the Google Store. However, I'm not sure how that applies (or doesn't) to your current situation & questions.

Ugh, I'm sick of this, I've always wanted to buy a Nexus.. Starting from the Nexus 4, to the 5 and then 6P... and I never did.. Why google makes them that damn hard to get anywhere else on the world !!
I think I'm gonna wait till Amazon start selling them officially.. That's probably gonna be the best in returns standpoint..
_____
Okay, No Nexus for me then... I am buying the HTC M8.. It does have a pretty active dev community.... Definitely not as good as the 6P.. But it's currently for half its price...

Bootloader Unlock Imminent - Next week?

After a big commotion, they seemed to have unveiled their surprise they were going to share next week.
Can't share URLs yet so please delete underscore after https.
https://community.zteusa.com/thread/11498#41615
EDIT (Important): Could someone who requested an unlock please look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/to-unlock-bootloader-hold-help-t3437617/page1 . This would help develop for this phone much faster. Please do the steps mentioned before updating.
Seems pretty guaranteed actually all the CSRs were apparently misinformed and the one of the head forum CSRs is furious about this and seems like pretty much guaranteed unlock in a reply to the post above.
Yeah ! It was me who posted on zte forums .. Just wanted to nudge them a little so they can at least come clean
Thank god you did I almost cancelled my order. I posted my frustration in that thread too.

Yup I'm there too LoL, (not my usual username i have to change that).
So we hope we get some awesome news next week (fingers cross)
Can't wait for Monday now lol, hope there is still enough buzz with the device here on XDA for ROMs and not too many people jumped ship.
Sweet...
Definitely hope we get some good roms with the bootloaders unlocked.
Had my Axon 7 for a couple weeks now, live in Oz and chinese version works fine here, and it's a pretty sweet deal. Got an Antutu benchmark of almost 142000 edging out the 1+3 by a few hundred points....
My only gripe is the virtual assistant software is only available in Chinese...
If the bootloader is unlocked I should be able to change to WW firmware fixing this....

Yeah, i added a little gasoline on there as well :angel:
Awesome! With the confusion over whether Passport 2.0 applies to Newegg purchases or if it is final/replacement-only, I was starting to worry that I may be need to cancel my preorder just to be safe. But if the bootloader is going to be unlocked, frankly that seals the deal for me. As far as I can tell, the only issue left is low-light camera performance, but honestly, with all the positives for this phone it isn't a huge tradeoff.
I just hope the late notice hasn't turned off developers of custom roms and root/recovery builders.
Yea bootloader unlock deal was making me doubt this phone, I really hope devs are still attarcted to this too. A lot of the reviews on the ZTE forums say that manual mode is much better in low light so it is most likely a software bug.

Also on the newegg product page under Warranty & Returns it states you can return for refund before 30 days but a restocking fee may be applied so you are probably fine if you want to try out the device but you might want to check with newegg just in case.

Google translate, does a less than stellar job on it.
What's interesting about the ZTE Chinese forums is that you can download the full ROM updates, which you can also do from ztedevices.com, but you can't do any of it for US based devices.
That's the link, I think. My mate translates for me. I don't speak Chinese and their slang and technical terms aren't fit for Google translation
Hopefully it arrives by the 15th, so I'll know if I should cancel my pre-order Grey model.

I believe that this is the topic.
But nothing too constructive as far as google translate can take me... As far as i could understand, it's just someone that tought the OEM Unlock menu appeared with the last update (B07) but it was already there and does nothing (a lot of interpretation in my traduction of the garbage google gave me^^).

ZTE UK in particular Is appealing, they don't give a crap, from the sales, to support, and I'm entitled to my opinion as are you.
I'm not directing this at you personally, so you don't have to react as if I was.

Mike, you're exactly right re zte UK. A total none event. Such a shame great phone. Appalling marketing and after sales support. I have up in the end and imported from china. Just got 7.1.1 seems fine so far

Well I managed to get mine of Amazon UK in the end, I called ZTE, tweeted them for literally months, and had like an auto response, the sort you would expect to hear on an answer phone "The Axon 7 isn't available in the UK yet, we will keep you updated on a release date".
Yeah right....
Although I love the phone I'll not buy ZTE again, its a shame they are this bad when it comes to EU marketing and sales.
I'll update to 7.1.1 when its got a stable release, probably on the German ZTE site, as I doubt the OTA update will work......its not so far.

Yep I know the feeling. Next time for axon 8, go Chinese. Got the 128gb for 320 squid

What about the warranty ? A2017G users have a 3-year-warranty even if water gets inside, and 6 month of warranty on the screen.
Mmmm, I've never got a response on that from ZTE. I was assuming I still get the passport warranty. As usual though when you ask zte a question they go to ground. Answer is as of right now I'm not sure

Idk why you think that in UK it is useless. I have the G model also bought on December. 3 days ago I received random mail from ZTE (probably they have my e-mail from Google account associated with phone.
I don't think I received an email, the reason I assumed it wasn't any good was because I purchased off Amazon in the end.
Even though the phone was a legit UK model with UK power supply, the supplier was a third party through Amazon, however I still have the warranty, so perhaps its all good.

did someone download the leaked 7.1.1 for A2017G before the Moderator deleted the download link? If so, can someone provide another download with a proper hoster?
