Oneplus have USA warranty.
Don't Sony phones have international warranty including USA? I'm currently using the Z5 dual. It's good.

There's still a difference between having warranty, and being able to use the warranty

Every Dual SIM phone I bought from Amazon died after a month. Finally I just bought 2 Iphones---one for Domestic use and the other for International use. I keep a Mobal SIM in the International one till I can buy a local SIM in country

I like the look of the oneplus3 and it's not ridiculously priced.
As my iphone4s is dying a slow,lingering death this is likely to be my next buy.

I have the OP3. Two days on a charge and 45 minutes to charge it to full again.

Liberating.

I've never heard of the OP3 brand before. Are they a decent company? Is there a way to do video during a phone call?

Are you referring to the OnePlus?

phone calls over GSM network are standard (available on ANY phone network)

video calls over GSM network aren't standard* (Verizon has their own implementation but requires their phones and their network.... you should use 3rd party things like skype/hangouts video/..)


*yes, there is a standard in LTE for ViLTE (video over LTE), but i don't think anyone's done it yet

I had the original OnePlus One. Then the two came out and I needed 2 SIM cards. Then the 3 came out.

Many people with my handmedown phones.

All love them. The best feature is the camera quality and battery life. With no bloatware, the phone goes forever. And the 3 charges from 30 to 100% in 30 minutes. A quick top off before your flight and you are good for two days.

Can't recollect if the ZTE Axon 7 has been mentioned. Similar to the Zenfone 3 and OnePlus3. At $399, not bad.
