Justine SmithiesI have a OnePlus 6 here. It's in perfect condition but it's not been powered up for a while. I'll go charge it up and see. It might have an old <a href="https://snac.smithies.me.uk?t=pmos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PMOS</a> installed but should work ? I'll message you pics shortly to see if you want it or not.<br>
