Hi…
I was with O2 for so many years, not upgraded since Huawei P20 Mate Pro was on sim only as no phones of interest.
Fast forward saw ID mobile and the Oppo Find X3 Neo and its large 12G RAM and 256gb storage, figured I’d give it a go, read good reviews on phone, etc.
Phone arrived a day early, looks nice, lovely screen picture, etc..
But quickly I noticed data and performance issues and its REALLY BAD at simple 4k 30fps DJI MP4 video editing on Powerdirector Pro, even photo editing via Photoshop Express and Lightroom Mobile is painful and hangs for 30 odd seconds before actually saving a jpeg.
I’m also struggling to get on various websites when out, although signal states good and 4g or 5g but Spotify works in car (Streaming)
Every time I arrive home the phone goes mad, chiming, beeping for messages, FB, Instagram, etc basically as soon as it connects to my wifi network.
Surely this cant be right, I mean 12Gb of RAM!!! or is it just nasty cheap RAM?
To compare, my P20 Mate Pro is only 6Gb RAM but is more smooth and way quicker, being its almost 4 years old now, that’s something to note.
Lastly battery, I’m having to charge by 3pm but people rate the battery life??
This, if the norm is no good to me, I film via drone, The Royal Navy Ships and Cruise ships on south coast while at sea, its critical I have data and no RAM buffering.
I fly DJI Pro drones, I need fast GPS and the ability to connect to air maps and special drone weather apps while out and while flying.
Can anybody advise, is there a distance buying cooling off period? is there know ID Mobile network issues, is the Oppo actually a poor phone?
