OnePlus Phone

I've never been much of a bleeding edge adopter, I received an invite for one of these and since my current phone is dying I went ahead and bought it. Don't know when it will ship. Hopefully soon. 64GB was $349 with no contract.

Anyone else have one or intending to buy one?

I've been trying to get an invite, I love that they run cyanogenmod from the factory. What I can't stand is their marketing tactics. I secretly hope that they fail because they've been dragging this out for so long (and I want one at the same time). Let me know if you get invites!

- Their "hey offer to break your brand-new phone and maybe we'll send you one" really rubbed me the wrong way.

- Not only were they encouraging wasting working electronics, but you could only apply if you had one of the latest smartphones. More churn.

I'll def let you know if I get one @marklog. Also, @harrison Hopefully it'll help a little to know that a very large percentage of people who entered that contest donated their phones to a charity.

I like that phone, but I really wish it included a MicroSD slot. I feel like that should be mandatory in phones at this point.
