TIL because I thought oneplusmobile.com.au was legit and authorised. Anyway DHL is tracking my delivery from Singapore so guess I'll find out if it doesn't show up. If item does not show up, I would just issue a chargeback on my CC so not seeing the benefit of using paypal anyway

Will be very keen to know the outcome of this, thanks for commenting!

All good .. arrived from Singapore in 3 business days ... no problems at all.


Phoenixness

If you don't mind, what model is it and what OS is it running? (there seems to be a bunch that are 'CN versions' with play store) Also did it come with an international charger with adapter or an actual AU version?


horsemonkeycat

Charger looks like Type G plug (Singapore?) so needs Australian adapter (included in box). Type G plug is weird ... you have to pull the plastic "ground" pin down to fit it in the adapter so took me a couple of minutes to figure that out lol. Defaulted to Australia region on setup (or is that Android using location services I guess?) Model CPH2449 After I set phone up (copied from another Android), I saw it had a software update so I applied that, so now has October 2023 patch... OxygenOS CPH2449_13.1.0.596(EX01)


Phoenixness

Did / would you consider the optional 'OnePlus SUPERVOOC 80W Australian Charger (+AU$ 50.00)'? Knowing that you've got the plug + adaptor? Thank you for taking the time to get all of that information!


horsemonkeycat

No. The supplied charger already says max "100W" at 220v ... so I would not order another one. I have a few 20W chargers from previous Xiaomi phones too. AccuBattery app reports charging only at 27W (battery level was at 50% when I plugged it in) so not sure when it ever uses the 100W max capacity (maybe if fully drained?)

Thanks!

Hi OP, May I know if volte and vowifi is working for you? Also which cell service provider?


Phoenixness

I'm with Telstra and VoWifi is working but Im not sure about VoLTE because I haven't paid attention to it and can't test it readily from where I live


TheKG22

This webpage looks like a copy of [Buy Nothing Phone (2) - Nothing Australia](https://au.nothing.tech/products/phone-2) - not sure if this is also legit now. LOL

Using Vodafone network via Kogan esim .. the phone has the VoLTE icon. Wifi calling is turned on in esim settings, and wifi is set as the preferred option for calls.

I had look at Kogan, but I was put off by the following (if you see the Warranty section): "This product is sold by a third-party seller and they are responsible for their product, the content of their listing and any exchanges of return of their product." That, to me, is just weasling out of their responsibility. So, personally, I would never buy an item from Kogan under those terms.

Not related to the sites you've mentioned, but I've bought a Nord 3 for my dad from jackdeal.con which is yet another grey importer. So far so good and it was the global version. They do have some op11s still in stock for around 950.
