I just tried and managed to tap into mrt on local set.

Using Google pay non sg version.

My last update was done through Oxygen updater app instead of built in OTA

usually will work on first attempt..subsequently will fail or on and off work. Both gpay or gpay sg works 100% on export.

131 for 8 pro.. around 1040 stack with coupon.

Any idea how come op8 (not pro) is so much more expensive as compare to last year's op7??

Issit due to 5g hardware? Op7 8/256 ~$615 after all discount, but this year the cheapest op8 8/128 ~$730

19% inflation to previous model :crazy:

Op8pro I understand is due to the silly curved screen, 120htz, ip68 cert and better camera so is bump up price

No I mean I bought op7 at launch at $615 last year. But this year launch, op8 inflated >$100

Looking at this trend, means Nx year op9 is going to be another $100 more ex than op8? :eek:

even if work, banking apps might not.. you could try and update us here :D

I would try if only restoring the phone is not such a pain.. I have to relogin and positioning the app on my home screen, put widgt where I want it.. thinking about it already making me tired

I think it might depend on the parts used on the phone too.. and also need factor in now covid period, so might cause the price to up a bit? U changing phone huh?

Cos OnePlus 7 is basically almost the same as OnePlus 6t. OnePlus 8 got 5g chipset bundled with sd865 so more exp.cos Qualcomm only sell as bundle there is no 4g sd865.

Thanks for this tip! Will try next time. The OnePlus 8 Pro update on the official website is still 10.5.10 though.. means we have to wait for awhile even after the OTA for 10.5.13 is released?

When the next software update instead use ota. Download the full rom from OnePlus website then do local update

a possibility as 865 has the 5g modem that jack up pricing this year.

qualcomm :s22:

Oh so I'm correct that the phones are really getting a lot more ex than last year, I thought i was imagining things.

And qualcomm is the culprit for inflating the price since they can monopolise the market with their best soc :s22:

Thinking to change to op8pro coz of a better camera... Op7 cam is actually a lot worse than my previous s7e, like a C tier cam. Then s7e is a high B tier. Not sure if op8pro cam really can be A tier tho :s22:
