Yeah, standby time is exceptional. Best I've ever seen. Often I still have 100% mid-afternoon if I haven't touched my phone since unplugging it in the morning.

Don't forget that the Sony Xperia Z2 now costs around the same as importing a OnePlus One, and has very similar specs. That's also an option.

After a normal day I usually have about 20% left (at like 9pm). I've got these apps like greenify, wakelock detector and betterbatterystats. Nothing seems out of the ordinary. Just like my battery has less capacity
I ordered the first pre order time and i got my phone today
Did you use stackry?
When was that first pre order?

Maybe it's something to do with rooting then. I'm running totally stock with no process killers installed. Android has become very good at managing itself.

I rooted so that I could use greenify, because my battery life wasn't as great as everyone else was saying. So before rooting, it was the same as now. Oh well, I guess it isn't bad, I can easily get through a day, just not as much as others
I think on the 7th of Nov. Took about 2 weeks to get to me. OPO had major problems in terms of processing 1000's of phones
Used my US and was $50 to ship my order which i had accessories and covers with it. Took about 7 days to get to me from Myus
Did you root your phone? I am thinking of doing it. Just got mine today

I haven't rooted my phone. I used to root my phones to improve performance, but I haven't found it necessary with the OPO.
Only reason i want to root is for the ads and titanium backup. Although i am new to Android since i was on iPhone

There are plenty of reasons to root. I find they no longer apply to me though. The only apps I need data saved for have built in sync or backup. Ads don't bother me because I'm so seldom exposed to them. Firefox on Android has an Adblock Plus addon.
My phone should be leaving stackry tomorrowAbout 2 weeks waiting time I rate. Looking forward to this
They reckon 2 weeks but mine was way quicker. Like a week max
My phone should be leaving stackry tomorrow
how much did stackry charge for shipping?
Ordered and I used Stackry.
Bonus points because I'm in Vietnam now and it's 11pm.
