Read throughout this thread and that should be enough. What are you even waiting for, get it already. Best phone ever... Been having this baby for 3 months and couldn't be happier.
[ONE General] spacemanvt:
well i recieved my RMA OPO, and it pisses me off.

Its a got a very small chip on the aluminum band and bottom of the touchscreen... the plastic part connecting to the glass... this is straight out of the box! WTF!

and its got some yellow banding! :(

To be honest though, as long as i dont have touchscreen problems ill probably just keep so i dont have to deal with their customer service again. (I already put in an RMA just in case)
[ONE General] Gabeloooooo:
(mine is the 64G)

Pros:

For the price, this phone can't be beat.

3G ram a must. When you get into running apps like tasker, ecid, audioclock, etc.

Easy to rom, no crapware (samsung, never again), near-stock + good features

Speakers are LOUD. Very nice for voice notifications (app like eCID)

Cons:

From all accounts, horrible customer support, and to an extant, a horrible company.

Terrible screen. Looks like **** VS. iphone or AMOLED screen. Yellow spots most likely (though not that bad)

usb connector backwards!!! bad for seek thermal users

Meh:

Camera. Decent but can't compete with iPhone or the Note4. I've come to accept mediocre Camera on the Android side.

As for bugs, t'is no more buggy than a samsung or nexus device. They ALL have bugs these days. Hell, even iOS8 is a nightmare bug-wise. Not a factor IMHO.

Size. Too big for my taste but the back makes it super grippy, meaning you can hold it fine for long periods of time.

Conclusion:

For off contract, the screen is not enough of a deal breaker NOT to get the phone. Such a good deal. BUT you have to be willing to risk getting a bad unit and then, RMA is a nightmare. But if you have iPads, iPhones or even AMOLED phones in the house as well, it will hurt everytime you look at the one!

Whats with the invite?

I seriously dont understand the invite system? Can someone explain?

Invites are usually in the testing stage like when GMail did it, so that millions dont slam them for some serious bugs.

Is OPO in testing? Will they ever stop the invite method?

I find it ridiculous, Am I suppose to beg around for an invite by sending someone from China expensive gifts, so I get an invite?!

OPO isnt even that level of feature rich nor that cheap when compared to some other phones.

As an average customer, why would one beg a company for a phone, when others offer you their phones? Its just so insulting to an average customer.

Also I also cannot understand why some "sheeps" would even sell their kidneys to get an invite !

Wth man? Just because they are fewer in number does not make them more better man.

Rant on.

Enlighten me....
[ONE General] qwertyaas:
My build date is end of November, 16gb. I spot none of of the known issues. Minus only having 16gb :( 64gb was sold out when I ordered.

Coming from One X is night and day. Was a great phone but really shows its age now.
[ONE General] evertking:
looking to upgrade from nexus 5

I live my nexus 5 and looking hard at the OPO. Should I stay or should I go? What is this yellow banding I hear about and is the invite really the only way aside from SWAPO's to land one of these?

After some reading.. Kinda put off because of the yellowing. Is this still a problem with the OPO is it the glass or what?
[ONE General] PaoloMix09:
Yellow banding is this light yellowish color you'll notice at the bottom part of the screen when you have a white screen. Barely noticeable for me, I do have it a little. I heard the latest builds of the device don't have it anymore.
[ONE General] wazka2:
I have a late november built and i have noticed some on mine but I am VERY picky with things like that, i bet most people wouldnt notice that.

I came from Nexus 5 and i am very very happy now.

- battery lasts 2 full days for my usage, N5 barely made one day

- screen is much better, colours brightness and size

- sound is much better and louder

- bit better specs

- camera can be better and worse, depending on the conditions

The only issue for me was/is touchscreen, I have flashed franco kernel and its much better but still sometimes when scrolling down, screen register it as a tap, never happened on N5.

...and poor/cheap sounding vibrations

Forgot to mention build quality which in my opinion is AMAZING and the packaging! The whole unboxing experience is what you would expect from £600 phone not £229.

Would recomend OPO to everyone.
[ONE General] ahighfield:
Yes, I have a late Oct build and no yellow tint (though others seemed to have it). I can sometimes convince myself that something might be there, but obviously this is not a major issue for me. It does seem to be less prevalent in the newer models. It is subjective though, doesn't impact functionality and outside 14 day no questions asked return period, will not qualify for RMA. More threads on the OP forum.

I am very happy with my OPO however, battery is fantastic and stock CM is brilliant.
[ONE General] wild1z:
I just ordered the 64GB version. Why not. :)
[ONE General] onthecouchagain:
I'm loving everything except for the camera. The camera is decent at best, but usually mediocre the majority of the time. My shots always come out slightly blurry or out of focus, even when tapping to focus on shots. Auto mode isn't very reliable.

Do you guys regularly use Steady Shot or Clear Image? What does Clear Image mean? I find Steady Shot results in shots that are much too dark.

Otherwise, I am enjoying my OPO. Just wish the camera had OIS or better image processing... I end up having to take multiple shots just to ensure I get a good one, and that's frustrating.

Here's an article about the release of oneplus two http://www.knowyourmobile.com/mobile-phones/oneplus-two/22384/oneplus-two-release-date-specs-price
[ONE General] benj!:
I bought a OPO, mainly, as I was taken in by the hype and marketing. Plus, it's great value for what it is (on paper/screen!)

While I'm impressed with the OPO's speed, screen, and battery life (so far), my only major bugbear is the vibrate motor - it's absolutely pathetic; I realise they needed to save money in some areas but I would certainly have paid more money for something that was actually fit for purpose. There is no way I would notice any notifications if it was on silent - I've got an HTC One M8 as well, and that sometimes seems a bit weak, but it's definitely better than this.

It's kind of put me off using the phone as a daily driver, which I realise sounds ridiculous, but here we are. If anyone knows of a walkthrough to replacing it with a better one, I might give it a crack :P
[ONE General] fr0d0#2:
I did a review like this of an m8 I had before returning it. The 1+1 was about £10 cheaper but is the better phone IMO.

To recap the weaknesses of the m8... Stupid screen size. Narrower than a nexus 4... therefore no bigger in all that matters. Not so impressive build quality... gutter around the screen bent; speaker grills warped. Slippy as hell. Annoying Ill fitting dot view case. Insane wasted space for the stupid htc logo. Badly placed power button and charging port.

Strengths: lightening touch response... all androids should have this. Bright screen. That sound.

OpO: perfect size and proportions. Equally bright screen. Great flip case.

Cons: hate the sandstone. lots. Capacitive buttons and that they're so dimly lit. Afterthought or manufacturers insistence? Crazy. Weird bezel - Dirt trap.
[ONE General] coolkid12239:
loved

Some feel the capacitives are too dim, but on my last phone i turned off the lights. Once you know where they are you don`t need them, plus you can never control the brightness of them. So I would rather too dim then too bright, especially at night when they are perfect in brightness.

Screensize is a little large for one hand, but hell theres not much I will ever do one handed on a phone, Two handed is the way the UI is designed.

Battery, finally someone just stuck a bigger battery in a phone, THANK YOU

buttons are very tactile and you can tell when you pressed them in most cases

Its a little on the thin side and would have prefered a more curved back but hell no other phone has done that and you may even get more haters if they did it.

LOVE MY OPO, I dont even care about the oneplus two, this has my favorate rom, screensize, only use 2gb so 3 is great, I cant ask for anything more
[ONE General] strictlyphat:
I love every aspect of my oneplus. I've recently been through iPhone 6, 6 plus, moto x, note 4 and I'm most satisfied with one plus. The only reason I'm leaving when I find something better is RECEPTION. I'm close to a big city and this ducks. Inside reception is terrible. The only reason I might go back to a note is because of the reception.
[ONE General] :
Hi guys, im planning to get OPO to replace my Nexus 5 because of the poor battery life. Anyways, im just concerned about the yellow screen you guys are talking. :( Im scared because what if the OPO i buy have yellow screen? plus, do you guys have any other problems or cons beside the yellow screen?
[ONE General] strictlyphat:
Yea. Reception is terrible
[ONE General] pnut22r:
Some people with tell you otherwise, but I think the yellow band issue is no longer an issue.

Some people think it's still there, but I have bought a few 1+1 in the past few months and I don't think there was yellow band on any of them.

Overall, great phone. My only problem/hindrance is the size. I LOVE the size and weight of the N5. It doesn't seem to be an issue for most people.

When I'm home, the size is fine. When I'm out, it's too big.

Good luck
[ONE General] chaka809:
I just received my oneplus one yesterday my previous phone was the nexus 5 and I don't have any yellow tint and the colors looks a lot better than the nexus 5 after u update it to the latest update
[ONE General] :
what other phones can you suggest guys? :)
[ONE General] sdmark:
I just got mine - no yellow tint for me either. The screen looks nice and the speakers almost scared me because they are so much louder than my nexus 5 was.
[ONE General] jeff5347:
Evening everyone . I have been jumping around in the one forum to see what ROMs, thoughts and such this phone has. Currently I'm using a g2 which all in all is a phenomenal phone. My g2 consistently hits at least 4-5 hrs sot. My only unhappiness is the lack of kernels and such (flashaholic here) although I see render has just got a one. My question is to anyone that has either had a g2 or whatnot...what are your thoughts. The g2 is fast and light but I feel w the g4 arrival dev work may slow down so I have been eying the one as I want the bigger screen. I have a g pro and that has a 5.5 screen and it is def bigger than this 5.2. But battery sucks. Just curious on your thoughts, thanks
[ONE General] Fidel Castro:
I've been using the OPO for just a week but I'm very happy with it, especially jumping from HTC Sensation which is like 4 generations behind :)

At first, I thought it will be too big for me (I was looking for something like 4.5 or 4.7 inches) but it fits quite well in the hands. No comment on the speed and power of this beast, everything runs smoothly.

So far, I'm very happy with it.
[ONE General] dr.m0x:
In the price range of the OnePlus One there is nothing else to compare.
[ONE General] gavinfabl:
Had the One for a day. Last night went out and shot photos at midnight and pitted the phone against the S6 Edge and iPhone 6 Plus. Also added some first impressions ..

http://gavinsgadgets.com/2015/05/01/oneplus-one-midnight-shootout-vs-samsung-galaxy-s6-edge/
[ONE General] jcasares:
I had it, and I HAD IT with Samsung after using this phone. I owned an S2 before this one and used sporadically an S3. For me the S2 was a nice phone but the S4 had many issues (with stock or CM) and battery life was bad. The size and overall design was OK and I still miss it at times (i.e. its curved corners).

This phone is fast and has many qualities. I was like you before. Both with S2 and S4 I changed ROM almost every day at times. When I bought the OnePlus One, I decided to stop that and go stock (+root). Since then I never installed a nightly or tried another ROM.

Battery life is good (but I always want more :P).

Build quality is good (even better than Samsung).

Camera is average. I feel the S4 was better and of course there are other phones out there with much better cameras.

Screen is bordering bad. I got used to AMOLED and miss it. I would love to have the OnePlus One with such a screen. Blacks are blacks and colors are more vivid.

The phone initially had a lot of issues. I was considering getting another phone the first month of usage because the touch panel was a mess. They progressively fixed it and after a couple months it was acceptable.

After the update to last CM11S (05Q) my phone started to show issues. First with Bluetooth, then with random modem disconnections and last with BIG touch panel issues (made it unusable). Was looking for a replacement when I decided to start from scratch with CM12 official release. That fixed it and now it's quite usable. Still, the touch panel could be better.

Overall it's a good phone but with all the stupid discussions between Cyanogen and OnePlus and the direction that Cyanogen is taking I'm evaluating going 100% Google for my nest phone. Maybe a Nexus 5 2015. :)
[ONE General] ataft:
I'm curious what has the screen bordering on bad? Just the fact that it isn't an AMOLED screen? Both types of screens have their drawbacks (although that S6 screen sounds legit).
[ONE General] jcasares:
It's simple. Yellow tint at the bottom, uneven light at bottom as well, blacks that look gray, and sometimes colors look washed out.

The only drawback I had with AMOLED was burning, and it only happened with S2.
[ONE General] Zorachus:
LOL already back on my Nexus 6 :D The Nexus 6 really is so much better than the OPO, the AMOLED display blows away the OnePlus One's, and the camera is night and day better too, but it's just the size that needs to get used to.

Because of this;

Thought about a new OnePlus because of my mediocre battery life as far as the phone is concerned. But I dont want to buy the same phone again. I had an experience where the phone actually got better over time. Battery doesn't seem as good in lollipop as kitkat and I can't seem to get the 6-7 hours of screen on time in a day.

TimberWolf - Layers Theme

This combo of ROM + kernel + Theme = Best Android device I have ever owned, my Nexus 6 now gets around 5.5h to 6h Screen On time ever day. I have to say, the Lollipop ROM's for the OnePlus One are not getting me anywhere near what I used to get on CM11S or Kit Kat ROM's. The OPO on Kit Kat would easily get 7h+ Screen On time, but with Lollipop it seems much worse, and I might even say worse than the Nexus 6 now with 5.1.1 ROM's.

It depends on you actually, if you like customising your phone and flash custom roms and even if you have a low budget for a new phone then go for it. I have the one and love it i did had a problem with the touchscreen once,but it went away by just clean flashing my rom.
[ONE General] PaoloMix09:
I loved this phone since I got it in September and I wanted to love it even more. Sadly, touchscreen issues randomly started appearing last April at random. I had been using Euphoria ROM for a while and things were perfect, but at random one day I wasn't able to type fast anymore. Ghost touches, not recording my touches, it was so annoying, I just had to get rid of it. Moving on to the HTC One M9... It was awesome while it lasted though!
[ONE General] royalbacon:
That sucks man, i had that to but mine disappeared. I just flashed the 44 cm build via fastboot a couple of time even tried custom roms and it vanished never had the same problem again. Hope it never returns or i will be pissed. But any way good luck with the m9 my next phone will definitely will not be a oneplus.

[ONE General] Rd. Vortex:
Initially I really liked the OnePlus One, however now I kinda wish I had gone with Nexus 6 instead. Pretty much exactly 7 months after ordering my OPO died completely. The phone was plugged in and charging (initially at approx 50% battery). When I went to unplug my phone it would't react to anything. None of the button combinations to reset the phone or reboot to recovery did anything. Also plugging in the charger does absolutely nothing even though the charger works just fine.

Before this I had some issues on custom roms that I tried (SlimLP, CM12.1, Exodus): Towards the end NFC wouldn't work on any ROM, compass was always stuck pointing to south or some totally random direction on all custom ROMs, GLONASS either didn't show up at all or lost signal after a while. Also especially towards the end before phone failing I begun experiencing random reboots on all the ROMs. Granted all the ROMs were nightly/weekly alpha/beta builds yet this is still by far the most problems I've had on approx 6 Android devices that I've installed custom ROMs on.

This is also the first device that I've had that has gone absolutely dead with no response whatsoever to anything. To top it off since it's a OPO, I'll have to send it somewhere and wait for repairs/replacement. Had I bought a Nexus 6 (and had it failed), I could have simply driven to the store I bought it from and have it instantly sent for repairs.

After this experience I'm really hesitant to buy another OnePlus device no matter how good the specs will be. Of course if the warranty repair/replacement goes well enought I might still change my opinion.
[ONE General] darkeclipse2012:

[ONE General] Mansquatch312:
I own a oneplus one, I really like my OPO, actually came from a nexus 6. I got the OPO so I could sell my N6 just so I can get out from under the ATT next program and lower my bill. I think the OPO was worth it. I am intrigued by the oneplus x, and I hope that by OPX running oxygen 2.x that means that they will actually update oxygen on the OPO since the internals are the same as far as processor and gpu.
[ONE General] chandanbs:
Its an impressive phine with top of specs but somehow the camera color rendering was poor. Call quality was OK and had a serious roaming issues and was unable to connect to 3g data while roaming.
