Hi, I’m looking to make the switch from the 15 Pro Max as I’m bored tbh. I have switch up so can always change after 90 days - and this is the main reason I chose switch up to see what else is out there but have always switched to an iPhone.
I know there’s no telephoto with the flip but have read online that the zoom isn’t too bad. 
Last android I had was the p30 pro which I didn’t really get on with apart from the camera (and before that the s7 edge) so I’m assuming a lots changed on Android.

I have AirPods (2nd gen) but I see o2 are doing the buds for £20.

any help appreciated as it’s sitting in my basket and the checkout button is winking at me.

Would be better if the stores would let you play around with one as the display ones don’t let you do much.

@Scotty_j 

Your best bet is to go instore to test for yourself.

You can only Switch Up instore anyway

Guide: Introducing O2 Switch Up. Swap phones whenever you want! 

Play store apps have never caused me a problem. I've always used Android so not sure abour iOS.

It's all a matter of people's perception and preferences.

For me I wouldn't touch Apple with a barge pole as I don't like the way they operate.

I've no problem with the play store but   as for Apple I guess they do well ripping off developers, one reason the apps cost more.

 

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.

Do bear in mind @Scotty_j the tales of woe about Flip and folding 'phones splitting or the screen becoming detached. If you search this forum, you will find several examples of members reporting problems. 

 

I am not trying to discourage you from trying one but I do think that it is important to bear in mind that you might, just might, encounter problems that you would not find with a conventional handset. 👍

I think that is prudent @Scotty_j ; there are posts on here about difficulties in getting repairs carried out under warranty too when the hinge becomes defective. 👍

I just get bored easily. The 16 PM is just about to be released but not really much change according to the rumours.
