Not hard to install, I'll tell you what's difficult trying to install hydrogen soft film , aligning it , without single dust or bubble, tempered glass is walk in the park compared to that

I've also installed UV glue tempered glass on my own curved screen phone Xiaomi mi 11 that's a pain

Normal tempered glass are cheaper so can buy a few and much easier to install in my opinion

    Does iqoo 13 have ads in their software? Doesn't matter if i can disable it, some users say even after turning off recommendations they still see ads in in-built apps.
    Is that true?

      Heis, 10 Nov 2024Is the obsidian black wooden finish or matte glass?I didn't really pay attention to it to be honest. I preferred the white one so if I get one I would get that. Therefore I didn't try the black one but I think it's matte glass

        ua82, 10 Nov 2024Have you handled micro curved screen or assuming it's ... moreIt is very difficult to use tempered glass protectors. The micro curved tempered glass ones are even harder to apply than ones for the more traditonal curved screens. There are many comments about this from Chinese users, Chinese phone reviewers and there are many videos on Chinese social wedia like bilibili too. You can apply them but it's definitely a lot harder than a flat screen protector on a pure flat screen. It's also hard to find good ones that fit. The Oneplus is less curved than the Xiaomi 15 pro but still has slight curves so it needs a micro curved tempered glass protector to cover the whole screen

          etijeb, 10 Nov 2024Voted for Maybe, depending on reviews. I own the OP12. Whil... moreYou are right. If you are getting OnePlus 12 512GB at 649 in your country, then it's steal deal.

              We need sub 6.3" oneplus phones!!!

If you actually take a look at some of the unboxing videos you will find they ars true. So stop being navie and ignorant.

Micro curved the display is flat the bezel is micro curved so it feels comfortable swiping off and on the screen best of both and you can use tempered glass protectors

                        none of the above - because no option for - no way i want a curved screen. there was no mention of it in the article or in any of the competition bits where a lot of them have curved screens aswell, which to me means they are not options either. also note that most are also chinese, there's so many of them now.

                          Typing this from my one plus 5 that I use everyday as a second phone

                          Maybe they can reintroduce a small phone like this with the newer battery tech

                            "No, not at this price" was my answer because i'm assuming the OP13 comes at least at €950 like OP12 last year and that is way high. At that price you better off with a Galaxy flagship (even S24U) or iPhone...
                            Oneplus has to bring down the prices a bit to be competitive in the West markets or else doesn't stand a chance...they don't have the reputation or brand awareness of samsung or apple here.

                                At this moment, phones do not need extra power. What they need is reliability, better battery live (in that case we dont need extra fast charging).

                                Yes, cameras have some issues, but generally they have reached barrier, where flagships are not that much better than mid range phones.

                                Mentioned flagships have one misstake: they are not to buy internationally. In 3 month there is Samsung train comming with S25 series.

                                  Won't buy it near me but will be buying Chinese version cheaper when oxygen rom can be flashed on it

                                    Honestly I'm actually heavily considering between getting this or the vivo x200 pro for my next n main flagship device. Because, they're both phenomenal in my favorite color blue and the vivo's camera is amazing but this is slightly cheaper and faster?? Not like the speed might matter in the real world but which do you guys think has the better software on Chinese ROL

                                      Have been using 12 for more that 6 months and only the battery is perfect :) Of course, with turned off updates, staying on 14.0.0.610.

Take a ... moreYes, they are better for long range but the Xiaomi 15 pro is worse at 3x due to relying on the main sensor so it is worse at 3x or 4x than the Oneplus 13. Note though I said in the same price range. These two phones are much more expensive so they are not in the same price category.
