Abstract: IT'S COMING: The OnePlus One will go on sale for one hour on 27th October [ONEPLUS]You might not have heard of the OnePlus One, but this smartphone could be about to make history.It's a cut-priced Android device that's had reviewers going completely crazy...
Galaxy S5-level processing power, Low $300 price tag, Grippy textured back is unique, Great battery life
Many, many bugs and major glitches, Connection issues with Wi-Fi and LTE, Uncomfortable to hold, No MicroSD storage, Poor customer service
If you're a geek willing to tolerate a lot of bugs, glitches, quirks, and poor customer service for a low price, the OnePlus One remains a good deal. This is essentially a Galaxy S5 (without waterproofing) or HTC One M8 for half the price. It can be a s...

Well built, Runs CyanogenMod, Powerful, Extremely good value for money
Lacks wireless charging, No waterproofing, No SD card or removable battery option
A terrific piece of hardware. It's not quite “no compromise” as some features (wireless charging, waterproofing, SD card slot, etc) are missing. Additionally there are some quirks with the software but, unlike most of the phone manufacturers, I can be con...
Overall for me personally it was a closely fought battle between the four phones. The LG and the Sony came out on top in design and software and only really lost out to the OnePlus One and the Oppo Find 7a when it came to cost. In the battle for specs the...

The OnePlus One is a big and well built smartphone, It is super fast with great specs, The price is unbelievable
Very big and unweildy to use in one hand, iOS is a more secure and closed platform, Can you get an invite to buy?
The OnePlus One is an outstanding entry to the smartphone market. If you want a large screen phone, and you can live with Android's data-harvesting ways, it is a brilliant alternative to the iPhone 5c. You just have to be able to get one. But don't expect...

Good screen, excellent value, loads of power on tap, ample battery life
No microSD, 4G doesn't work on all UK networks, pain to buy one, size won't suit all
All in all the OnePlus One is an amazing device for the price. There are a few little issues, but nothing that should stop 99 per cent of people from buying one. It's just a pity actually obtaining one is such a pain - but that almost makes it a mor...
