After hearing the price of the Nexus 6 and not being interested in all the all phones out there except the Moto X, am thinking about getting the Oneplus. My only concern is are we going to get updates regular like on the Nexus devices? I love m updates which is what is holding me back right now.

I will pick this phone up in a heartbeat if i can be guaranteed regular updates.

 

[immortal-joe]

Any world on a smaller version in the works? I remember an interview with the CEO where he said if there was demand for it, they would make it.

OnePlus Two will apparently be 5" instead of 5.5"

Had mine since september and up to now I love it!

 

[Swhalen]

I need to get an invite.

 

[Yen]

If anyone wanted to switch to another back cover(Swapstyle), seems like this eBay seller is selling some. eBay

(Only Sandstone Black or Babyskin White)

Is this case good? I've yet to buy one.

 

[ZackieChan]

I need to get an invite.

The one they sent me just expired. If another pops up, I'll send it to ya.

Phone is pretty great. Glad i didn't wait for the Nexus 6.

 

[AlteredForms]

Looks fantastic, but I'll stick with my trusty Nexus 4 for now.

 

[Ocho]

So, you guys probably got an influx of posters after Nexus 6 pricing. Is the phone good? Touch issues resolved? How's build quality on the newer batches?

 

[DarkFlow]

I need to get an invite.

They are STILL doing this shit? Holy shit.

 

[kiguel182]

I need to get an invite.

There's a thread for invites already where me and a bunch of people are asking for them. It's best to keep everything in one place.

 

[GK86]

They are STILL doing this shit? Holy shit.

It will be gone by the end of Oct. But yeah, stupid that it is still going on.

$360 Oneplus One 64GB or $760 Nexus 6 64GB after tax and shipping?

 

[DarkFlow]

$360 Oneplus One 64GB or $760 Nexus 6 64GB after tax and shipping?

Do you have money to burn, and do you like putting up with CM bullshit?

 

[kharma45]

$360 Oneplus One 64GB or $760 Nexus 6 64GB after tax and shipping?

I can't see the N6 being worth an extra $400.

The OPO isn't perfect but for the savings against what the N6 is costing I'm happy to put up with any quirks it has.

At least 2 years of updates are promised from cyanogen mod.

 

[Jarrod38]

If I were to get this phone will get work with T Mobile?

 

[norinrad]

I going to have to go with the Oneplus, hopefully Vodafone also understands

 

[BoboBrazil]

If I were to get this phone will get work with T Mobile?

Yes, I get really nice speeds.

 

[kharma45]

Wow.

 

[akileese]

I'm definitely considering getting one of these (or whatever the next rendition is) in the spring. Disenchanted with the huge price tag on the Nexus 6 (not to mention the phablet size). I don't mind CM and if worst comes to worst I'm sure there will be a stock 5.0 at some point.

 

[BigEvilTurtle]

Does the One update with official releases and nightlies? It's been a long time since I used Cyanogen Mod and some of the talk of freezing worries me.

 

[ZackieChan]

Mine doesn't update with nightlies. I guess just official releases?


How long after the binaries for Lollipop release should we be expecting a CM version?

 

[Qvoth]

i remember seeing one of the admin posted saying something like 3 months or so

If they stick to the current invite system, they deserve to fail. :-/

 

[JLG-]

Is VSCO cam still broken on the OnePlus One?

Can anyone test it out please.

 

[Matty8787]

They have to be careful surely? They can't create thousands of phones like apple in case they dont sell. The invite system creates a demand that they can cater to.

 

[Omega]

the flagships this was supposed to kill got their new versions. those new versions will have their new versions by the time this thing is made available to the public.

 

[Des0lar]

Well kinda. Everything works fine, but if you touch to focus there is an error. So you have to rely on the autofocus.

 

[FinalStageBoss]

They still don't sell these without invites? Been looking forward to trying it out.

 

[gundalf]

Try the Invite Thread, i got mine pretty quickly.

Now i am wondering if it was i good idea from me in ordering this phone.
I mean this thing will get 2 years of Software Support and only one year is remaining!

I think you could always move on to pure android when the software Supports ends.

It's not a case, it's a switchable back cover, sort of like the Moto X

I don't get the invite complaints right now. If you genuinely want the phone, it's really easy to get one. People can't give them away in the invite thread. Took me all of ten minutes to find one on the OPO reddit.

Well, I've been trying to get one and I can't seem too so clearly it isn't as easy as you are saying.

Or I just have really bad luck at it.

I will give you one, once i receive my invites from One Plus.

I know that they also do a official AOSP Rom but its nowhere clear how devoted they are to this.

I gave three out few weeks back and only one was claim. There were so may invites offered on GAF invite thread and OPO site.

Thanks, I would really appreciate it!

Well, I only started trying to get an invite a couple of days ago but so far it seems there are way more people asking for them on that thread than giving them away.

and on the OPO forums you have to be really quick to get one and I can't seem to get any luck with it...

Preorders start 10/27

Invites have been harder to get since the Nexus 6 reveal. Everyone was holding out for that until the insane price reveal. I couldn't give invites away a week ago at this time.

The Nexus has been the catalyst. The price was just too much for a lot of people.

Yeah, I knew it was going to happen. Google really screwed themselves there.

 

[Schrade]

Leo Laporte had a theory on why the OnePlus One was doing the invite only thing to control the flow - the screen on them is exactly the same as the one on the new iPhone.

It could be that it was hard for OnePlus to get enough screens to build the phones because Apple was sucking all of them up.

Sounds feasible.

I've looked at them side by side and definitely don't think they are the same displays.

 

[temesgen77]

really happy with my 64GB Oneplus phone, its perhaps a tad bigger in my hand than I'd like but its good enough size wise. The OS, build quality, cost are all better than expected. If they do a tablet I'm in again.

I'll also add that the differences between this and the newest Nexus phone only make me feel even better about the purchase. My last 2 out of 3 phones were all Nexus phones but Google lost the plot with this most recent phone. Its too big, too expensive and (for me) too late.

 

[Tripon]

OnePlus, you too my money on Monday. Send me my damn phone already.

 

[TAJ]

I did a thread search and saw a lot of people saying it's not on Verizon because of CDMA, but Verizon is using VoLTE now.
I looked at the FAQ on that forum but I'm not signing up for an account just to look at the compatibility section.
The only reason I can see (with the information I have available) for it not working is that it doesn't support band 13.

 

[norinrad]

OnePlus, you too my money on Monday. Send me my damn phone already.

Where are you located?

Mine should be arriving today. Ordered on Monday and it was shipped on Tuesday from the UK via DHL to mainland Yurope. Just for you information i just received the mail a few hours ago. Up until yesterday my account was stuck on processing so i thought it was taking too long until i got the mail.

 

[Koppai]

So what says I should get this phone instead of a Galaxy Note 4 or iPhone 6+? Isn't this phone outdated already?

Tell me what I would be missing please. Getting annoyed that my Galaxy Note 4 still hasn't arrived at Best Buy

This phone is way cheaper and performance is the same or better than Note 4 in most benchmarks and apps. You would be missing out on 2k screen and s-pen apps going to a OPO instead of a note 4. IPhone and Android are not really comparable. OPO offers a truer to stock Android experience and will get updates more frequently than Note 4.
