Oppo Find X8 Series

[eddy0505]

and this was photo taken a long time back. now is even more "colourful". and even Sony too. I rmb it was especially common on Xperia 5ii. I've seen cases of LG phones and iPhones with green line too, though seems less common. After all green line is just the result of OLED screen failure. A lot of the older phones don't have good cooling, plus back then exynos and certain snapdragon chips tend to be run quite hot, which isn't good for internal components .Probably why a lot of phones kena from that era. it could be a samsung panel issue too of course since if not wrong it seems like more prone to happen on their display.

Gg sia. I think really hengsuay and probably some manufacturing defect from the start or qc problem. Touch wood so far my phones no issue with green lines, but my 10 year old Dell monitor screen starting to have lines appearing liao.

Add Vivo to the list.

That's the main reason I prefer to buy local sets with 2 year warranty.

I've heard some stories for vivo phones having green lines past warranty and yet the SC still replaced them for free. Kudos to them.

worth to get the x8 pro since it's
ultra maybe not be coming

The price for X8P could almost buy a CN X8U with better camera and SD 8 Elite processor.

Agreed, it's also 500 yuan lower than launch price. Probably to compete with vivo x200 ultra.

not sure about SG, but i've seen in MY's vivo community that they got replacement for free. kudos to them for sure. and also OnePlus india even openly promise FOC replacement, likely cause i think a particular model, 7T i think, was hit really hard and they got tons of complaints. https://www.oneplus.in/rcc/greenlineworryfree

but of course, that's not for Singapore OnePlus? not to mention of course Samsung SG seems like they bo chap also one? haha. Because of how some of these Android brands do things and "take care" of their customers, nowadays i feel like it's easier and more prudent to just recommend regular consumers get iPhone instead if they not set on Android. lol. at least if an issue is widespread enough there is a good chance that apple will have some extended service program to cover that component.

Buy OPPO/oneplus from China retail/online store, is it need to on phone and activate the phone, then can bring back sg to use, else will kena region lock?

Don't think oppo has any region lock, OnePlus heard have but need the seller to unlock or something.

Almost wanted to ask a friend to get the ultra from china, now having second thoughts after hearing about the green line issues sigh…

 

[peterlim95]

I’m considering getting this phone … wonder if it’s worth getting it ?

Touch wood. So far I have not seen any flagship Oppo phone having green lines. Only Oppo Find X3 Pro (mil)

But again, so scared. Then how?
Dun get Samsung becos they are more famous of Green lines meh?

One of the bro mentioned, eventually every phone will get it. Yes I somehow agreed, but Its more of a probability. Of cos, some low end phone have higher chance esp those Samsung series. Like S21.

My 2 year Oppo Find X6 Pro still working fine as my spare phone.
In fact none on my phone (Huawei mate 10, Huawei Mate 30Pro, Realme GT Neo 5) kena green lines.
Only phone that I encounter was my mum, Honor X9B and my Mil ( Oppo Find X3 Pro)

Correct, I think it's more of qc issues at manufacturing level. Like the lcd connector strip lemon quality from the start.
