OnePlus Offers Phone Sans Invitation
February 11, 2015/
Much like the kid who gets picked last for kickball, many would-be customers of the snazzy OnePlus One smartphone have been left out of the cold without an invite. But, as of yesterday, anyone can purchase and order one of these rather exclusive devices without an invitation on every Tuesday. Why Tuesday? Who knows. I guess it just gives you something to look forward to on Monday.
Now, since the OnePlus One phone hasn’t received all that much press (due to its exclusive availability no doubt), you’re probably wondering why you should even care. What is it about the OnePlus One that makes people willing to purchase invites off of Ebay or beg others to send invites on forums online?
Well, basically, the phone is a hella good deal. Priced at $299 for the 16GB version or $349 for the 64GB variety, these phones have high-end specs (when first released, they were flagship specs) for moderate prices. Here’s what the hardware on the phone looks like:
- 5.5 inch LCD screen with Gorilla Glass 3
- 1080 x 1920 pixels (~401 ppi pixel density)
- Quad-core 2.5 GHz CPU
- Snapdragon 801 chipset
- Android 4.4 (Cyanogen mod)
- 3 GB RAM
- 16 or 64 GB internal storage
- 13 MP back camera
- 5 MP front camera
