Hmm I've got a couple of questions regarding some of the accessories; it is my first time purchasing a phone off Qoo10, or online for that matter. Been used to the typical visit to Starhub/Singtel/M1 to purchase a phone and contract together and trust their service throughout so all of this is very new to me.


3. Oneplus 3 Pin adaptor ($19) add-on, again is this not already included in the phone purchase within the phone box?

4. I notice the AT House page mentions their phone being 'Oxygen Version'. Don't all OnePlus phones run on Oxygen OS, if that's what they meant? Unless its something different, a clarification would be nice.

5. What do they mean by 'China set', other than the obvious in that it comes from China. I mean, how does it differ? As a non-Chinese person, and as stupid as this question sounds, I worry certain instructions or stuff in phone would be in Chinese instead of English.

6. The safety mark approved plug add-on, it's not necessary is it? I mean if I have like the standard ones at home anyway.


1. Oneplus fast charging only work if u using it original charger and cable, but I use my own charger together with the original cable still can charge very fast

2. The phone it self already come with a silicone case, for me I think the case not bad doesn't make the phone bulky, of course it won't give much protection if u drop the phone

3. Can just use the original adapter for charging just buy any 3 pin plug from your neighborhood store, few dollars nia

4. All China set is running hydrogen os which is without Google service, most shop will help flash to oxygen os ba.. In fact u can just download from oneplus website and do it yourself very easy.

5. China hk us india spec all same, only different is hydrogen os and oxygen os

6. I think this is refer to the 3 pin plug...

Would suggest stick with the default screen protector first. It's the best one for OnePlus.

100% support.

source around as standby, but default one use as long as you can first

Correct me if I'm wrong

1. Some of the Qoo10 stores have this 'Add on fast charger adapter'; isn't it something that should already included in the purchase of the phone? Do they mean an additional one (but why would anyone want two though). While on that note I see two different types 'XPower WC3Q3' and 'XPower x4WT' for the fast charger adapters; what's the difference?

2. Silicon Casing add-on, I assume useful as a temporary cover for the phone until purchasing a better phone cover?

3. Oneplus 3 Pin adaptor ($19) add-on, again is this not already included in the phone purchase within the phone box?

4. I notice the AT House page mentions their phone being 'Oxygen Version'. Don't all OnePlus phones run on Oxygen OS, if that's what they meant? Unless its something different, a clarification would be nice.

6. The safety mark approved plug add-on, it's not necessary is it? I mean if I have like the standard ones at home anyway.



Just to clarify, the casing and screen protector you mean you went for their '+ $6.00 Tempered Glass and TPU Case' add-on is it?

Also do they help you apply the tempered glass onto the phone? Heard applying it for OnePlus phone is harder than typical screen protectors.

As for WhatsApp messages, refer to previous posts on 'wazzapmigrator'.
also the xpower plugs does not work with oneplus' dash charge as it works differently. I bought a spare charger plug, in the event if I lose one because dash charge is exclusive to oneplus/oppo

Also I'm loving the screen protector that came with the phone. Premium quality, oleophobic, and cleans easily (i splashed abit of curry on it just now)

The screen protector u're referring to is the stock film type or some glass one that the supplier bundled together?

Actually the China Hydrogen OS does have Google framework built-in, it is just disabled. Can simply install Google play from the oneplus app store, then the whole Google service is activated. Next time can just install apps from Google play store on Hydrogen OS.

Anyone seem to also have issue with Singtel WiFi? From time to time, especially after the phone goes into sleep mode for a while, when I wake the phone up, it seems like it doesn't have wifi connectivity though it says connected.

Actually, its weird, it actually has connection. WhatsApp, telegram works but anything else like browser, apps doesn't work. It's very irritating as I have to reconnect to the wifi to 'refresh' and regain connection, often multiple times!

Hello all, has anyone tried charging with other chargers other than dash charge? If you do, what is the charging rate which you are experiencing?

Just curious, have you all checked the battery charging rate with any software? Was wondering what will happen if I use my Anker charger to charge, assuming I get the OP5T haha. Currently still holding on to a OPO

I've never compared it, but this video might give you some insight: https://youtu.be/zfy222DUsK0

I've seen this video before. The charging rate is super impressive with the dash charger. Appreciate the link!

I was just wondering what are the rates which people experience when they aren't using the original charger. I have been experiencing half my previous charge rates on my OPO and was wondering if it will be the same with the OP5T

It will be half. I get max 1.5A on non DASH chargers

Odd...just yesterday Xiaomi store in Qoo10 had the 128GB model going for S$769 and now its $850

qoo10.sg/item/ONEPLUS-LATEST-ONEPLUS-5T-SMARTPHONE-128GB-64GB-ROM-8GB-6GB-RAM-EXPORT/577243507?banner_no=1305330

Also realized 131Express is more reputable for their service and delivery, as shown by the various positive feedback received on their page as well; though that comes up to S$900+.

Meanwhile 131Express's price went down from S$900+ to S$799. What's up with these prices lol. I'd feel more inclined to order with 131Express though since they have generally great reviews, but will probably continue monitoring them for a day or two first.

qoo10.sg/item/ONEPLUS-READY-STOCK-ONE-PLUS-5T-64GB-128GB-BLACK-LAVA-RED/575680492?banner_no=1305330

Edit: 131Express has included Lava Red version too, also going at $799 (128GB). I'd love to get the Lava Red, but idk if it comes with any risk despite just a mere colour change, since virtually no one here seems to have ordered the Lava Red version.

Maybe Xiaomi Store ran out of stock?

I'm inclined to wait for a while more for a few more upcoming discounts.. One person in another thread mentioned that there might be a 300-50 discount upcoming, much better than Xmas.

Was thinking price will stablize in about a month or so..

That's valuable information for me, at least I know my Anker charger won't be useless even if my Dash Charger spoils. Thanks!

I have about 3 weeks before my current contract ends so...can actually still wait past Christmas and New Years see if anymore discount comes up.

The Lava Red is tempting though hahah; got a feeling that'll probably be all sold out with no restock sooner than later, or at a more premium price than the midnight black (as I first observed it to be a couple days back). See how it is just few days I guess...

Unless you are going to have a transparent back case, if not I think it doesn't really matter if your phone is red or black :)

The Star Wars one would be the true rare one I feel.
