I'm in the market for a new phone. I've been checking out the samsung s7, but I still really prefer the oneplus 3. The thing that's now really pulling me towards the s7 is the buttons!
I'm still missing my keyboard from when O2 stole my only slightly broken desire z and sent me a shiney HTC one, and that was about 3.5 years ago.

which is the snap on keyboard cover for the s7, and it got me thinking that there may be other products which might work for the oneplus 3 ... and I will have my final wee bit of argument for buying a new oneplus 3.
Anyone seen anything like this? or even a bluetooth version of some form. Any suggestions welcome.
NB I just don't like touchscreen typing. I used to be a text fiend now I avoid txt at all costs.

check out handheld bluetooth keyboards:
https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_...ps&field-keywords=handheld+bluetooth+keyboard
Plug in a cheap OTG cable, get your keyboard of preference and comfortably break the record of words per minute like a champ!
Meant it as a joke but i actually do this frequently
Thanks guys.
Trying to work out if having a separate keyboard is going to be a pain. Think it's the snap on part that I really like. Having a separate one is likely no to get used much. I like being able to type on the move and I think the separate keyboard would cause too much juggling.
I mean hey, anything is possible right? XD View attachment 3850705

That may defeat the purpose of a "mobile" phone
Yeah I've actually got a BT keyboard at home which I use occasionally with my pad, and have used it a couple of times with the phone. I was just hoping there was smaller easier options.
I'm trying to convince myself I don't want to turn to samsung ... as my other half is a brand whore who will only buy samsung.

Anyone using this cradle: http://www.boxwave.com/news/news_1326.htm
I haven't seen many other options options - only 1 other in fact. The another one I have seen makes you have to physically plug the cable in the side which kind of defeats the purpose.
The new(ish) Boxwave one seems to have to slide on.
I'm in Australia and would have to have it shipped across. Wondering is anyone is using and can give me feedback on what it's like.
For example, I'd like to know how easy it connects/disconnects from the cradle.
Thanks.
Thanks for your post! I am camping in the Swiss Alps this summer and found the perfect accessory for me!

Thanks kerrance.... Hadn't seen that one before and looks great. Unfortunately doesn't look like they ship overseas (I'm in Australia).
Box wave looks good, especially the one with the extra battery charger Mite consider this as well, but my problem is I already ordred the crystal case from pdair.com and it would be hassle to remove it from the case everytime I sit it on the cradle :-(

Are you antwhere near melbourne? dont know if this one needs to have the cable plugged in you cant really see.
http://www.ow.com.au/shop/PDA-Cables-Cradles/HTC-Touch-DUAL-USB-Desktop-Cradle
as for the other one, in their terms and conditions it says

Yeah, I live in Melbourne and I have physically seen that one. It has a very short USB cable that needs to be manually connected to the side of the phone. I fail to understand the point of this device (but, maybe it's just me)... I might as well just connect a standard USB cable.

Hi guys
I recently needed a Keyboard for University, to use with my Nexus 7 to take. Notes. I was looking around for a keyboard that offered portability and function and came across this Bluetooth Keyboard from Amazon.
This is a great keyboard, it is bigger than those Keyboard cases/covers for the Nexus 7, for me it would have been to hard to type on them anyway. It also is very thin at only 6.5mm and its biggest part is 9mm thin, so this product is very portable. The reason behind it being so thin is that it uses a Li-ion rechargeable battery, which charges through a Micro-USB port on the back of the keyboard and take about 2 hours to change fully. Battery life is great lasting about 10 hours of usage. Lastly it was very easy to pair with my Nexus 7 simply press the button on the keyboard and enter the code shown on the N7 onto the keyboard and its done.
The keyboard come in US and UK variants and is priced at £22.99 on Amazon (link below). It also comes with a travel bag.

Thank you!
Here's the US Link if anyone's interested: http://www.amazon.com/Perixx-PERIBO...12266&sr=8-1&keywords=perixx+keyboard+android
I have this keyboard as well, and it works absolutely wonders. Though it does not have Android specific keys, you can duplicate Android buttons using FN-F5 for Home, Alt-Tab for Task window, Fn-F8 for Search (from home page). You can also control volume with Fn and F2, F3, F4. There are a lot of other shortcuts you can use, just google for Android Keyboard shortcuts
Cannot remember where I got mine from but it was only 17GBP with shipping

Hi!
I was thinking of buying this keyboard. Did you encounter any problems similar to http://floor4.co.uk/2012/08/07/nexus-7-bluetooth-keyboard-and-uk-layout/ ?
I still don't know the difference between the US and UK layout, but will probably get the UK one.

Another case
External power pack
Headset
It shows 2 types of casings, external battery, wireless charger, and a headset.
Have fun!
Where's the headset I think it might be changed
Looks really good.
both device and cases look so sexy
I think i will be getting the battery case.
Phone will still be thinner then my Note 4 and wireless backcase, plus it protects the phone.
However the screen...
I need to mod the clearview case with the battery case haha
That second case look pretty cool. I'll probably get something like that
I like the pass through cases on the top, but I want to see what the back looks like.
All who buy a S6/Edge will need a Power Bank
Will the Samsung Power bank do a Fast Charge ?
I dont see it on any website yet
so i got few here which might be useful

The site is not in English. I'm looking for the case in the 2nd picture. Anyone found it?

i saw it at samsung .com/shop like 2 weeks ago for 69.99$, said it' coming soon. now they removed it !
maybe it' not ready yet? or cancelled?
or maybe they want you to buy the fake leather case instead .
Looks like it got pulled from the website for some reason. My guess is mfg issues causing too long of a set back to keep it as "coming soon"
Wish they have accessories on Launch of the Phones
they always delay it and loose sales
I want the New Power Bank, Cover & a extra ac adapter
When are these being released? In particular the powerpacks?
I can't can't find them anywhere?

I used a link from google drive, but now the images are on the attachments, it should be fine.
Cool
Where is the kickstarter page? And is there a battery built into the case?
There is not battery on the case and the kickstarter page is at flitch[dot]io/ks. I am sorry but I haven't posted enough message yet to share a link in xda forum.
I have backed, great idea, though i cant really see you getting the £50k you need as this is just s6 owners, who are going to pay £50 for a phone case? great idea though

Yeah, but it's not only a phone case, it is also a game controller that fits on your pocket and you can take with you everywhere.
nice design
Looks cool and like a great idea, but $62? Man that's asking a lot, even for a controller. Especially one with only joysticks and shoulder buttons, missing the standard 4 letter buttons. I'd pay maybe $30 for this product.

The trick is that the cover is pressure sensitive so it is possible to simulate the 4 letter buttons with the second joystick. :highfive:

Cool, but still too asking too much. Idk how much your costs are but you guys need to find a way to get the price down.
Hi guys,
I have my shiny new phone at last! Feels like such a big upgrade from my old OnePlus One (well maybe bar the screen)
So here is what £24.45 brought me from Amazon (the price of an official OnePlus cover)
I have posted a few things about the FlexiCase already but you can ask me about anything...
My first impressions are that it is all presented very well giving it a premium feel for such a great price. I feel everything you get is a really awesome deal and just wanted to let you guys know.
Here is a pic of my package:

Orzly Multifunctional Wallet case
I have my final exam on Monday so bear with me. I will update as much as I can as soon as I can, but please feel free to ask me any questions
Hope you are all enjoying or are as excited about your OP3 as I am...
I have got a case from OnePlus and Cruzerlite on its way so hopefully I can give feedback on those too.
Having put on the screen protectors, I would definitely recommend them over OP as a short term solution. Fits more of the screen!
Here are some great uses of the the ring! Use it to hold the OP3 if you have smaller hands, using it as a stand on tables and even wall mounting...
How do these ring stands secure to the phone again?

OK I have been looking at these. Too cheap to spend the 8 bux to just check it out, but, does the ring get in the way a lot when you don't want to use it. In other words, does it fold down nicely and stay or keep flapping around. I am thinking this may be a good thing for me to use because I use my phone with another BT device at the same time (getting into lockboxes) and have dropped phones more than once fumbling around.
