Confirmed scammer. It's in Miri Bintang Megamall right? They used the same trick when the S8 was released. Using DirectD pics and lured the victims.  After a few investigations by the forumers, most likely it's aromachong, who was a famous scammer in the forum last year.

Looks like those scammers are keep using the same old tactic to scam the people. I guess the same thing will appear again when Note 8 & iPhone 8 come out soon.

wow rclxms.gif
if this is true, cos OP just admitted the fault one two days ago, right (?)
After the users complained for while now....

What I meant is, OP side solved/rectified this 911 issue fairly fast, AFTER they admitted the faults/problem.

Lawa lah

Dash Charger = RM73.50 (RM79.90 + SAVE8 code)
Dash Cable = RM55.10 (RM59.90 + SAVE8 code)

Free Shipping

In my case I have no option to buy at least one of the original charger or cable, just to fulfill the funny requirement from Brightstar. Although I think THEY are the one who should bare Brightstar TnC, not the customer  blush.gif

So in the end promo price RM2380 for 128gb is not actually RM2380  doh.gif  Basically you pay standard promo price as other online sellers and but you ended up getting 2 set of original DASH charger and cable haha

edit : why you need two DASH anyway?

Thanks for letting us know. Who knows, you wake up late in the morning, forgot to charge the phone. Then, u have another unit in the Office to charge it a while, before u going out of office ehh. Perfect isnt it?

QUOTE(icecarpediem @ Jul 31 2017, 09:44 AM)
Been using my OP5 for 4 days. Been taking pictures and videos as well. My take :

Performance :
OMG... Fastest phone I've used. It's even faster then my wife's iPhone 7. No lag or hiccup ever and with more then 20+ apps on background. And it's definitely way snappier then my P10

Battery :
The first time I'm trying to kill a phone battery base on my day to.day usage. I'm impressed honestly. By night, I still have 51% then I try to game on it for an hour or so, left with 45%. Left it over night with no charging and morning it's at 42%. Plug in and less then an hour I'm at full. Very happy 😄

Camera :
Been taking lots of shots and comparing it to my P10. Now little disclaimer... I'm not a photographer not a crazy intagram user. I just take photos of family or random scenes. Everything I took was on auto with just point and shot.
Day time shots outdoors : very good and less over saturated compared to my P10. Bokeh was also as good, just can't get to adjust it after the shot like on my P10.
Day time shot under shaded environment : very good shots only with occasional soft pictures of my hand shaked. P10 handled slightly better as it has OIS. Colors more natural with good balance. P10 again, over saturated.
Evening or indoor artificial lighting : this is where OnePlus needs to beef up the software. Pictures can tend to come out softer unless your hands are steady and once you get use to how to take pictures with the OP5, it's less of a problem. P10 wins here because of the OIS. The over saturation is still present in the P10 however. Not to say the OP5 cannot get sharp images, it just takes more effort. Which means fast moving shots are a no go.
Video : again disclaimer - I don't record in 4k as I don't see the point. On my wife's iPhone 7, my P10, both can do 4k but never used it. Always on 1080p 60fps.
Day time video under sunlight : 1080p 30fps, the footage is great, very stable. Cropping is present and part of the framing is lost. Definitely usable. Once you can estimate how much of the frame is cropped, it's fine as you know how to record. I don't use 60fps as it does not have EIS yet. Here hands down, iPhone 7 wins easily.
Indoor or artificial lighting : my results are the same for stability, video sharpness drop a bit. I would say still usable. Again iPhone 7 is far superior here.
Both environment above, P10 video image quality is above OP5, below iPhone 7 BUT, the stabilization has a weird jerkiness to it.

And another thing.... The OP5 didn't really heat up when I was using my camera under the harsh sunlight here is PJ as you all know except for Sunday super heavy rain. I can't say the same for both iPhone 7 and P10. Especially the P10. It heated up so fast I had to stop using it. The heat generates combined with the sun radiance cause it phone be hot to hold especially near the camera module when the motherboard is located. iPhone 7 also heated up pretty hot... But worst is that battery started to drop like crazy on the iPhone. So yeah..  what's the point of awesome camera if you cannot use it more then 3 minutes and have to stop shooting due to the phone heating up?

So there are my thoughts after 4 days. Would I recommend the OP5. Oh yes indeed. Especially if you are coming from and older phone or you have heating issues with current phone or battery issues with current phone. Not perfect (missing OIS, water resistance, expansion SD slot), but still an awesome phone.

PS. Yes I still notice slight jelly, but I don't notice it after day 2. If I look Hard for it, I see it again. Day to day use don't see it any more.

WoW. Thanks for the long write-up to share. Much appreciated!
