I still don't understand this. This phone shouldn't be in Beta anymore after 6 months on the market, so why haven't they rolled it out to everyone instead of a select few?

It's an inventory thing I believe. Because they are selling it cheap, they don't want to get stuck with a ton of inventory that potentially won't sell.

I know it will work on TMob and ATT. Not sure about the rest. It's a $350 unlocked phone that has the specs of the best phones out there and the battery is phenomenal. Also, no bloatware.

Marketing strategy. Limited release = more people want it. Can't vouch as to whether or not it is working, but I love mine

How long did yours take to get delivered after your placed your order? I ordered yesterday, just curious what kind of transit time I'm looking at.

Mine only took a few days. I think 3-5 business days

It's beyond the point of being transparently obvious though. From the reviews I have no doubt it's an excellent phone with an even better price. It really should just stand on its own merit now. If they're still doing this invite shite, I hope it's only because they have an unpredictable supply issue.

$350


I know that isn't a lot for a phone, but it is more than I want to pay for one. I'm going to wait and try out the ASUS phone.

I like this phone but not sure if I want to wait for the HTC M9 Prime.

I've read that they are only making $10 profit on each phone, so they have to keep their inventory as predictable as possible.

What should I do with mine when I get it? Going from S4 to this. Anything special I need to do?

I have an iPhone 4 and will be getting a new phone in February. Will the OnePlus One work for me if I have Verizon? I'd love to give it a shot.

I don't believe they work on sprint or Verizon. Only AT&T and T-mobile

Damn, thanks.

I'm pretty sure I can easily deal with this. I was on a plan with my parents and I think they've both switched to plans at work. I'm going to look into all this.

If I don't grab one of these invites in here fast enough, is it relatively easy to run into one if I look around the interwebs?

They have had quite a few days recently where they'll open it up for anybody to order without an invite. I think they had one day in each of November, December, and January so far.
