Went ahead and ordered. It's time to replace my Samsung S8 that I've had for over 3 years. Battery is useless.
And I no longer need flagship specs.
I just use my phone for calls, messages(WhatsApp), YouTube and work smart roster.. Don't do social media or gaming.

Now I just need to wait, 4th August

Just ordered one for the mrs, £349 from Amazon can't be sniffed at.

Granted, I would have personally prefered a single front camera, and a single rear camera with 6gb ram, 60hz screen for £299 but happy enough.

If you managed to get your £20 preorder in with oneplus last week, you could have bagged a free pair of the new buds worth £79

Latest SoC, more ram in the "base" spec, stereo speakers, UFS 3...

Those features aren't worth £250 to me but they could be for others.

Too big for me anyway, shame they got rid of the X's form factor :(

I thought both nord and 8 both had 8gb ram

The X was a great phone I thought, although not people liked it

Very tempted to pull the trigger especially at £350 but having used my S8 for the last few years its frustrating that all these new phones are massive. Any sub 6 inchers (oi oi!) Worth a recommendation as similar proce point?

Feel like I want to upgrade my Galaxy S8+ for this. But comparing specs I don't think I'll benefit.

Battery is getting a bit poor on my S8+ but I think a nice factory reset and I can extend another 6-12 months of use out of it unbelievable I've had it 3.5 years! That's gone quick.

I'm currently using a S8 and battery is very poor. I need to charge the phone twice a day to get me through just a standard day. And like u i've had it since Day1.

It's time to move on. I no longer care about flagship specs. As long it has fast charge, decent camera decent screen i'm happy. For the price i can not complain.
