One Plus have announce that they will be introducing a preorder system for their smartphones. Although, they've specified that the invitation system "will exist and serve different purposes.".

The only downside with the preorder system is that you wont be sent a One Plus One in stock. It'll be sent "as soon as stock becomes available". A time scale of when that could be wasn't given, and it most likely wont when a customer preorders.

 

One Plus have said that the new pre-order system will be the easiest way to get an OPO but it looks like they are still standing by their invitation system.

 

Personally, after having 2 invites, but not being able to afford to get one at the time of receiving the invite, the pre-order system seems like it'll resolve that problem. It seems like it'll also benefit OPO a great deal, we'll definitely be seeing a lot more of the OPO I think.

No reason for buying this instead of waiting for the Nexus 6.

What a stupid reason... Thats like saying lets not buy a 980GTX as the 1080GTX will be out next year.

Agree! Buy the time this phone finally becomes available to anyone it's gonna be old news and kinda outdated. They need to make something new imo to be successful sure the specs are top notch but we all know everything about it so there is nothing to be hyped about.

Because the Nexus 6 is not 1-2 months away. /s

It would be stupid if he was waiting for a Nexus 6+1 equivalent, which will be out next year*.  The Nexus 6 itself is not that far off so it is a wise move.

 

I own a OnePlus One, and it is a brilliant phone.  The company, on the other hand, leaves something to be desired.

Eh. It's too hard to buy, and after you pay all the additional fees, as a Canadian at least, honestly isn't even that great of a deal. It's maybe $40 cheaper than a Nexus device.

Warranty is a lot more iffy.

They gave up on their Style covers which was a huge draw for me.

Now it's just another massive phablet.

 

If they manage to survive the first phone, and make a mini version then maybe I'll care.
