"One Plus One" equals?

Go to solution Solved by dizmo,

I wouldn't bother with the OnePlus One for a few reasons. The OS is slightly buggy, not as refined as a flagship from one of the big brands.

Also, it's an unproven company. There's no saying how well they'll do when they start sending out thousands of phones. They couldn't manage to send out 100 without a fair number of issues, including a couple of empty boxes, so I have serious doubts there as well.

I don't think we'll see OnePlus carry on for more than a year or two. So, if you're looking for long term hardware support, good luck.

By the time this phone is actually available to the masses, it will be rather...out of date persay. It's going to take too long. Do you want to wait another 3 months before they have stock to give to anyone who wants it?

There are times when spending a little more money is really worth it, and I feel this is one of those times.

If you want to get into the smartphone game on the cheap, there's always the Nexus 5 and Moto X.

 

 

I suggest you avoide 1+1 for now.
Reason for this is beacuse the invite system is stupid and shady.
There package is terrible (bubblewrap and thats it)
They wont even give a charging cable, GG.
And if you get a damaged device due to there crappy packaging they wont stand for it.

Those were just for the people who won the phones. They're getting their charging cables etc when they're available.

Hey Guys,

So recently a thought went through my mind "Dude you gotta buy a smartphone~".

Yeah I know I'm little bit behind on owning devices although I have been following the news about all the devices thanks to LTT and few other channels and at first I was sure Im going for the HTC ONE (M8) (~750$) it has great specs and an microsd slot!! but mostly because of the metal design the camera is pretty much a disappointment tho, anyway later that month I found out about the OPPO FIND 7(~600$) holy frack ~same specs, bigger screen, nice look, swappable battery, fast charging and on top of that "QHD" 2k display DAMN! and its also cheaper then the HTC ONE (M8) !  

BUT its going to be my first smartphone and I don't want to go crazy and waste all my money going to fast into the smartphones game so I had to look cheaper and yes I found the ONE PLUS ONE although it doesn't give me a storage expansion slot and doesn't have the amazing 2k display it gives me everything that I need to get into the smartphones game with great specs that are on pair with the latest smartphones + great design the price is amazing ~350$ so much cheaper then other high end smartphones that I have decided to get it! Many of you probably know that the company went for an invite system yep ONE PLUS ONE EQUALS INVITE SYSTEM >< and I don't really have a problem with that well maybe a little bit well actually quite alot!!

 

Anyway let me know what you think about that invite system and about my decision to buy it.

 

Also if anyone knows the fastest way to get an invite to buy the ONE PLUS ONE let me know please 

or if anyone has an invite that he might be able to give message me please.

 

Thank you
