Anyone excited for OnePlus?

[sze5003]

Ha ha, so you didn't port already? Told you so.

Nope I'm still on Verizon. The fcc slapped them. If I do want a new phone and to stay in Verizon they don't have anything I want now anyway.

More than likely its a iphone 6 64GB that I will get - will know soon enough. (6+ is an option but last I heard they were backordered through work)

My Director put the request in. I told him I'd prefer the 6+ but I need it for next week so I will get whatever they can send me the fastest.

I'm not going to keep 2 devices around. I don't want to chance putting a work sim in my Android device either when we only have iphones.

Just got my shipping notification - I am getting a 5s 64GB as iphone 6's are out of stock/back ordered currently.

Oh well, free phone is a free phone.

The words on the street is that FCC intimidated Verizon, but some are believing it has more to do with competitive pricing/promotion from ATT and T-Mobile.

6 > 5S >> 6+

Nice score, I'd be happy with a 5S, especially the 64GB model.

Got an invite today finally and got the 64gb for my wife.

Got an invite in my email today even though I've had my OPO for over a month now...thanks to whomever sent it?

The newest update 38R has improved my touchscreen issues by quite a bit. I still feel like it's not as sensitive as my Note 3, but it's no longer a daily irritant.

I'll have to see if it also solved my re-connected to network issues.

 

[sze5003]

I've got two more invites yesterday randomly. I think they have a little less than 24hrs. I'm tempted to use one to see if I get one with a better screen.

But I just don't want to go through the return hassle again. I'll be posting them here if I decide not to use them when I get to a pc.

I just read a review about this One Plus and the specs look to be very good. I haven't read all the 61+ pages on this thread, but wanted to know what you guys thought about this phone (good/bad/ugly etc...)???

When you buy it from One Plus, do you have to buy it outright (no payment plan)?

I was considering getting the Samsung Galaxy S5 or the LG G3, but now the One Plus looks like a great phone......

Its pay outright - using paypal.

I think its an excellent phone for the price.

You can use PayPal. I have it linked to my card and bank account and bill me later so paypal does have a payment plan if you want. But if you need to set it up you may need to wait a few days before ordering.

Be aware that the one plus phones may have a yellow band at the bottom of the screen due to the light sources being at the bottom. Mine was bad and no uv or sunlight treatment worked for me so I returned it.

Others say they do not notice it but personally I can't have a phone like that. For the specs it's a very good phone compared to what is out now. If the screen had been flawless I would have kept it and switched from Verizon.

Also, very little to no customer support. It's a Chinese startup so there is risk but I'm sure you are aware of that.

A friend send me his invite and I ordered mine. Sandstone Black, 64GB. Crazy low price (2500 DKK). Let's see how it is

Thanks for the detailed reply SZE.

I wonder if a lot of people had that issue wth the yellow band or if it was just a few with factory screw ups??

I hesitate a bit to promote anything Made in China, but this is good deal. On the other hand, I do like the fact that I can add a (monthly) phone price to my T-Mobile bill (not buying it outright) and if I wanted to upgrade down the line, it's simple to transfer the money paid towards a newer phone.

It's a pretty nice device, but QC issues coupled with having to send the damn thing out of the country make it an iffy proposition.

At this point I don't think it's worth the extra cost over a Note 3 from Swappa.

 

[sze5003]

So I dunno why I got two emails saying I received two other invites because when I checked my account they aren't there.

 

[openwheel]

invite still available.

 

[Polar2002]

I had to claim invite before it shows up in my account.

 

[sze5003]

Yea looks like I have to do that too. But if I claim it it's only useable for me. I could order another one but dealing with Cs to return it for yellow was such a pain.

 

[gus6464]

Used the invite to get one for my wife but I will get one for me too as well. I will take the invite if anyone still has one.

 

[cliftonite]

Still dont have 38R available wtf.
