Invite system yeah?

Worst system ever.

If I want to buy something: I order it today, I get it tomorrow.

Can't do that? forget it.

The invite system is a tad annoying. They should really have learnt from their previous fiascos. Just get it in the hands of the public and market it well.

Quite like the idea of the ceramic version, although I bet it will take the **** to get one:

"Only a very small number of OnePlus X Ceramic will be created."

Yeah 10,000.

My understanding is they're doing the "invite" system again for about 4 weeks then going to weekly sales. Which I suspect is code for what they did with the OPO early this year: 1 hour window "open sales" once a week on a Tue :rolleyes:

I know it's 200 quid but it's very much a 2013 spec'd phone.

Second hand Nexus 5 will be just as good and half the price.

Expandable storage is cool, though.

Not for people that want the build, sd slot and better display it won't. And possible better battery life. Plus more RAM is just always better.

It's a good deal any way you cut it.

It's at worst a 2014 mid to high spec phone, and the screen will be amazing. For the money it seems like an outstanding device, dual 4G radios and very slick looking. Wonder what camera sensor it has...

I think it has a Samsung sensor

Edit. Yep. Isocell S5K3L2

Also important is the fact that they're working on a Marshmallow update for Oxygen OS which means Doze feature on the OPT.

G-MAN2004 · 29 Oct 2015 at 21:11

The OnePlus X Oynx will cost £199, while the Ceramic model will cost £269

Hmm, don't think I want the ceramic model anymore. No thanks.

I suspect I'll still be here come Christmas without a new phone.

Not bad then, though the aperture is a tad low, minor quibble though. Seems very solid for the money, though personally I couldn't now go back to a non-wireless charging phone.

I hate OnePlus but at the same time this phone is the perfect Nexus 5 replacement. Difficult decision!

I've got my invite to buy one

DarrenM343 · 30 Oct 2015 at 11:45

Invite system - interesting marketing gimick. Create higher demand by limiting supply and making people think they are speeeeeecial

I signed up the day it was announced and don't have one

bummer. Wasn't sure if I was gonna get one or not.

jonneymendoza · 30 Oct 2015 at 12:45

haha this looks better then the one plus 2 lol

nam · 30 Oct 2015 at 13:26

Looks like the ideal size replacement for my galaxy S4. I just hope I can get one as I don't understand there purchasing system

How is it the perfect Nexus 5 replacement?

I consider my upgrades to be more worthwhile personally. Think I'll wait for next gen phones now as nothing is new with this.

kayomani · 30 Oct 2015 at 20:43

I wonder what the battery life will be like, kinda tempted to upgrade from my S4 but I also love my 7000mah battery :F
