Thanks.
I got that from JB's product listing, however some people confirmed it is dual physical sim from previous JB deal
Correct, I've got the white dual physical sim version from JB-Hifi
I got mine (white model) from last year's deal. It was dual physical SIM.
Got another one for my dad recently (black model), can confirm it's a nano-SIM + eSIM.
Thanks. Sounds like these will be nano-SIM + eSIM then.
anyone know if australian/global imported oppo phones have a built-in call recorder or do you have to get the chinese variants?
Doubt the Australian version will have the recorder, I have only seen native call recorders on the international versions
I got one from last year deal. No built-in call recorder. Installed some apps from play store. They just worked for a bit of time , then stopped.
I got a carrier ver X2 pro and have this call recording feature added via an ColorOS update recently
What do you mean by carrier? Like directly network locked from one of the big 3? Telstra, Optus, Vodafone?
Yep, it said from Telstra but it's network unlocked. It was a a little bit troublesome to get a dual Sim card tray from Ali express to replace the built-in single nano SIM card tray but after that all good. No complaints at all except for lack of wireless charging feature.
dual Sim card tray
that's the first time ive heard that you can do that, typically you run into hardware limitations and thats why you gotta get a chinese/global variant
@dfg555: Yeah, had to grind the tray a little bit to fit in if you call that a hardware limit lol.
@yvesmindreader: I believe you rom is already flash to other region's version.
@Richardc: nooop
@yvesmindreader: Did you confirm this from the rom version?
@yvesmindreader: Would you happen to have a link for that please?
nano eSIM? Not sure if eSIMs have different sizes ..
The way your ESIM works is by you copying a physical SIM to ESIM (this is an option on your phone). Once done you can then remove the copied physical SIM as it is now stored as an ESIM
what
and how do you do that?
Thats not how it works
An eSIM is an embedded or electronic SIM card built into a mobile phone or device by the manufacturer.
and the way emails work is you copy a physical mail electronically. Once done you can destroy copy of the physical mail and it is now stored as email.
"Qualcomm® Snapdragon® 8 Gen 1" skip it
I'm not up to date on phone CPUs but I thought the Gen 1 snapdragons had great gains in efficiency and reduced heat etc? What would be better these days?
the 8 Gen 1 is fantastic, although the successor to that is the 8+ Gen 1 which showed incredible boosts to battery life so definitely would be looking at phones with the 8+ Gen 1
The latest and greatest atm is the 8 Gen 2 which is brilliant
Hope this helps
This or the google pixel 7 pro? I reckon these 2 are decent in their always, but so confuse to pick 1 out of another.
considering the same. any conclusions?
As a Pixel 7 Pro owner I think I should've got the X5 Pro on Black Friday last year. On the Pixel the charging speeds are snail slow, and the native camera doesn't allow pictures in a certain format that saves a lotta data.
I own an old Oppo phone too and it still gets security updates every one or two months.
that deal OP mentioned is still active.
why is this a deal when it's $650 if you were early enough to order the x5 pro and trade any old phone in?
https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/783510cos these are dual sim. the one you linked is single only
The dual sim is Dual SIM (nano-SIM + nano-eSIM) same as the model directly from oppo
