Official OnePlus Case not in the box! - OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello, i ordered the OnePlus 8 Pro from Amazon Spain and i found out that there is no tpu case in the box. Maybe they forget to put one in ?
Anyway, i contacted Amazon about that and they told me that they cannot do anything since this case is not sold separately, maybe they can give me a gift card if i insist but i just want the case which is supposed to be included.
After that, i contacted OnePlus Live Chat and they pointed me at Amazon which was the seller after all. I even told them that i can pay for the case but they did not sell it, so again there is no solution. I searched AliExpress, eBay etc. but i cant find this case anywhere!
What should i do now?

So let me get this correct. You buy a phone that didn't come with a case? You contacted the seller? You contacted OnePlus? You're willing to purchase one? Do I have everything correct so far? So why not just buy one instead of wasting your breath on here because we can't do anything about it.

OP mentioned he's been looking everywhere for it but can't find the specific one that comes in the box

You should behave sent it back because it was incomplete.
After that order a new one!

I bought it on Amazon Spain and everything is correct. bad luck yours.

I also bought it 2 weeks ago on Amazon Spain and the tpu case was included, what a big mistake

I bought the phone from Amazon and there was no case in the box. OnePlus now responded that they will send me a free sandstone case that will arrive this Monday 13/7.
Anyway I still think that this is ridiculous for a 1000€ phone, at least the after sales experience was good.

Lol get a refund

It's not a good case, it discolours as all transparent cases do.
Grab a mofi, Ringke, mous, Spigen, UAG, Rhino.
Every one of them will look better and offer more protection.
If you really want it you can have mine I'll never use it again.

Where can I buy this case from in the UK?

Case is out of stock, available in 7.14 days.
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/6413.htm
Is there anywhere else in UK where it can be purchased, or does anyone have one to sell?
Thanks!
In the same boat as you !
Have looked everywhere and nobody seems to stock them, apart from Brando themselves who are a little more expensive and will probably take just as long to deliver .....
http://shop.brando.com.hk/bwo2xdaIIminicase.php
I've ordred from moblefun. Note that if you sign up for their newsletter, you get a voucher for free delivery. Helps keep the costs down!
Yup !!
Only paying £13.95 for it - seems a bargain compared to the other cases I bought and hopefully this will be the "perfect" case for me .... i.e. the last one I buy
I've received my SDIO WiFi card today, and looking at the pictures of the case, it would appear that the card cannot be inserted without opening the top catch. Can someone who has the case confirm that I am correct in my assumption? Thanks.

Mine is expected to arrive on Wednesday (UPS). Will let you know then. Others may get it earlier and let us know about their experience.
The description on eBay does state that it may or may not come in the original packaging, so we'll see.
Any feedback on those that have their units already?

I just got mine a half hour ago. Came in the original nook packaging with sticker in the back of the box and another sealing the box that say "certified pre-owned nook"
Looks pristine (minor scuff in back where unit touches surfaces when put down--I stand corrected, it was no scuff, just some dirt). Screen is flawless, no marks whatsoever. Up and running after registering in a minute. Dowloaded my books and opened the one I'm currently reading at the bookmark left on my Nook Color.
Version 1.0.1
Will root later after work.
Currently listed on eBay for $112, but these retail online for $139 with free shipping anyway.
Granted, $27 is something, but is that enough to cover the risk/hassle of refurb hardware?

They're shipped by B&N and they come with a full warranty. I'm pretty sure most of them are returns from people who didn't care for it. It's a bit more than 27 when you factor in the state tax on 112 vs 139.
Am I the only one or has any one else gotten this? Your experience? Good or bad?
I bought one after dropping the one my girlfriend bought me for my birthday present. Wasn't able to fix the screen and couldn't find a replacement online. Got it within 3 days and it looks brand new. Really happy about it. She has no clue I broke the first one. Hoping to find a way to fix it in the future.
Wow, it gets better and better! You can now get a refurbished Nook Touch from B&N via eBay for $99 (down from $112) with free shipping.
EDIT: NOW DOWN TO $79!

It's so cheap now that I'm debating whether to buy a backup unit, just in case.

Warning - don't shop from AliExpress/Origianl Meizu Store

I just want to warn the forum readers from buying phones from the AliExpress-store called Origianl Meizu Store.
The store sells refurbished phones which they claim to be new… The phones has no serial number and the IMEI-numbers are not valid.
Unfortunately I was stupid enough to by a “new” MX4 PRO from them… and I experience a seller that is not interested in helping me. The name of the contact at the store is Kety Wu
My MX4 PRO died today (RIP). There is no way to get in contact with it anymore. It is not possible to turn it on. It does not respond on any combination of keys, and it is not registered when I connect it to my computer
So I opened it... As the pictures shows, it has definately been repaired at some point before it was sold as “new”
I'm sorry to hear that but I'm not surprised. I definitely not recommend to buy any smartphone on aliexpress, only accessories.

I would, but the dispute timer has counted down a short while ago. Tried AliExpress customer service today.... they promised to contact the seller, but I'm not convinced that it will help me
I confirm what you said. I bought my first MX4 in this shop and I suspect the same thing. I had no problem with but I have not kept long as it is hard bricked now (its my fault). But many shops sell refurbished on this kind of product I don't recommend to buy through aliexpress.

Aliexpress isn't always bad, there are some good shops out there. Don't blame it on aliexpress, it's just some shops that sell fakes, clones or scam people.
I'm not saying it's always a bad idea. But there are many shops that sell refurbished phones and it's sold as new. Especially since many do not have products in stock, the shipping delays are long. So it is often a bad idea.
yes if i would buy a phone i definitly wouldn't buy it form aliexpress okay i bought here arduino + some parts relays etc. but for that money i wouldn't pay without paypal
All my meizus are bought in Aliexpress and no problem. The key is to buy reliable sellers
Feel free to share your links to shops, personally I'm interested. And I want to say that often it is not clear that this is a refurbished product, I'm not noticed before disassembly. I even had a sticker that sealed the box...
I have bought 4 meizus from this shops and no problem:
http://es.aliexpress.com/store/900031
http://es.aliexpress.com/store/1194377
One thing you can do to check if the phone is reburfished is to see if the imei of the box matches with the imei of the phone.
aliexpress store NO COSTUM!!!!
i bought mine here : http://www.aliexpress.com/store/342812
if you order from here there is no TAX to EU and DHL shipping is basic.
my MX5 PRO is new (but i guess there are not much refurbished one yet)
seller communicative.
I agree with snoopyrider80.
I ordered a Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 and it got delivered in 8 days, no customs no import tax. What they do is ship from China to the England and from England they then repackage it and ship it to the rest of Europe. And since England is part of Europe, there is no import tax or customs. I can recommend that particular shop also.

Yesterday came my backup LG H990 dual sim from eBay seller Ebanox.store. (this time silver. Looks better imo) Like my first purchase. new condition with android nougat and security level 1st of December 2016. Recommended! Camt think about a switch. If my main V20 is going to die ill take the new one . And what's pretty cool. I ordered the DS version but there aren't many available. I'll got one with B&o HPs. But they sound like crap haha

Factory Sealed unopened ?
I sent them a message recently about the redmi k20 pro and they said they open them to test them,but maybe not the mi 9t
€390 for the 128 version is pretty decent it's €330 for 64gb one on amazon
I bough my mi9t from this https://fr.shopping.rakuten.com/offer?action=desc&aid=4827612891&productid=3974212410 and it is factory sealed. but look for other sellers https://fr.shopping.rakuten.com/mfp...10&filter=10&cid=5849175&scroll=shop_sections this from europe are even cheaper now, and probably they come factory sealed.
for this mine seller it is sure factory sealed.
i paid it 354eur, as rakuten offer me 30eur discount for sopping over 300eur
tradingshenzhen[dot]com also recently adjusted their prices for both versions 327,-€ / 64GB and 357,-€ / 128GB
It's also said that in their next delivery they will have all three colors available

What about the warranty when buying a phone from sites like that?
I'm looking to buy myself one 128gb version, and as someone mentioned above amazon is out of stock, so now I'm wondering whits sites like you mentioned + Goldway via alixpsress etc...

i received bill with price, and imei number and it say i have warranty of 24months. But anyway i have 12 months of warranty of rakuten site.
how is warranty from goldway via alixpress?
If something wrong with the phone within 1 week of arrival goldway takes full responsibility. If you have problems with the phone after that - let's say 6 months and you have problems with your charging port goldway will take care of it but you as as a customer needs to pay the delivery fee to china, which is a hussle.
The best would be when we get the phone and with the correct IMEI the warranty would be accepted by xiaomi global - like if we can directly send the phone to xiaomi and not return to the seller in china.
yes, that would be the best if we get phone direct from xiaomi shop. but when i look to order mine, i was waiting for 17jun for official site of xiaomi in france, and i add to basket, but thinking which coclour, blue or black, and it takes me 1 min to think. and then when i click to confirm and buy, it was already sold, so i had to find alternative site to buy . i was not enough patient to wait for few days more, i could buy even cheaper then for 354eur.
i dont know about warranty, for me if it is in few first, lets say weeks all ok, then what could happen if i am not alone responsable. I have bad experience with meizu, even i send and i was ready to pay all expenses for repair of my phone, they didnt do, they even break connectors from power and vol+/- keys to main borad, and phone was not able to use after. when i send notice back about that connectors, they said it was already like this when they receive my phone.
same bad experience with huawei.
Exactly. That's why i'm not sure if I want to order the phone via those sites, because like you said...what if something happens? Like, i need a new battery? I need to send the phone back.wait at least 1 month etc...and there will always be something wrong with every phone.
But as I see now, even here in Croatia the MI 9t 64gb costs the same as the 128gb on alixpress, its just too expensive here.

Izvini nisam video da si iz Hrvateske . Sorry didnt see that you are from Croatia . In Serbia mi9t cost 380eur 64GB, it will be in shop from tomorrow. if someone wants sure warranty of 24moths then i think no doubt where to buy.
I chose to buy in sites as i posted or in aliexperes, or from local site name kupujemprodajem, i have sure 1year of warranty, and if i want new battery, i just can go at local service center and ask to put me new battery. even if i have to pay. for such things, it is cheaper to pay then to send phone back to china, and wait extra month, or even two to have phone back.

Yes, but if you change for example your battery at a local dealer (not authorised) - you void your 2 year warranty which is enforced by law. At least for all electronic products for the EU, i suppose Serbia enforces it as well. Keep that in mind.
Dvosjekli mač jel
Summa sumrum, you can change your battery wherever you like, but you lose your 2 year warranty. If i buy a phone from amazon (for example) i have a 2 year warranty by default. If i go and change something without amazon - so if i go to a local guy who can change it i lose the warranty.
you are right, but it is why we have options, to buy phone by lover price, and questioned warranty, or to buy overpriced phone with warranty ( but when it comes too, no we dont accept this, we dont accept that, .... )

Yea,that kind of bummed me out a bit too,there not exactly selling the phone at it's cheapest either but if you wanted to get it quick it's an option,I would check eBay,or Amazon if you want the 64gb version,
I haven't found a site that doesn't charge extra for shipping besides eglobal but I find them very dodgy,(though I've heard good things also)

eglobal is cheap at the moment and dropping price,currently its £261 there but they dont have any accessory and yes they I have heard things about but not as bad as tobydeals.
I was also torn between mi 9 I really like it but the headphone jack absence killed it for me

I had a really weird experience with eglobal today that put me off them all together.I added my personal info in and was thinking hard on the 9T in my cart but had to leave the site to get back to work
Got about 10 missed calls throughout the morning from places like Africa,Burundi, Switzerland, definitely scamming attempts ,then this evening got email from eglobal saying I'd left an item in my cart just click here price is 9999,I'm sure if I clicked they would of tried to charge me that.
Looking elsewhere now,but still unsure as have a 6T at the moment but really like the 9T design and cameras. The mi 9 is too similar to my 6T. Also kind of keen on the k20 pro so thinking might be worth waiting for a mi 9T pro

wow... scammers... Burundi in Africa, even Switzerland? wow...are you in UK or where are you. I am in UK.
The decision with 9t is because I dont need all that selfie camera movement, I am fine with simple stuff but then the fact that I cant charge phone and use my head phone at same time is not good.
The its more expensive and yeah... its the headphone input that killed it.
Do you know when Mi 9T pro is coming out?

Romours are it will come in September but that's not confirmed.but you can get the k20 pro with Chinese software at the moment but no band 20 for 4G.
I'm in Ireland but there nothing over here and we use UK plugs so interested in all UK relevant stores. Yea the headphone is pretty much dead on most brands,I don't mind because I never use it
