well, now you have OnePlus One.

anyway, seems OPPO is the contract manufacturer for OnePlus. so, the build quality (or lack of it -- sorry, no experience with OPPO products yet, so not sure which way it goes) should be similar.

OnePlus just updated the forum with a new thread called:
OnePlus One - All You Need to Know
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/oneplus-...know.718/unread

one interesting bit is listed in the specs...


now its got everyone guessing...

supposedly keeping it for 23rd April event... sigh, so long time more...

there's a lengthy discussion on the OnePlus forum about this. but unlikely to be on OnePlus One.

they have stated that 2k screen is not feasible at the moment. suck up processor power and battery. so, it;ll still be just FHD screen for OnePlus One.

#CaseChase even details are out. does not include Asia. so... too bad for us.

what do you think of the screenshot?

they have announced the winner of the YouTube video contest. the winner gets to go to Hong Kong and 'feel' the phone.

they also announced a special prize for one of their more active forum member... this member has been invited to join their launch on 23rd April.

benny888, this phone does not pique your curiosity/ interest? no warranty void when you flash.

seems they were not kidding when they said there's a OnePlus One phone under the Z1. i thought it was just a figure of speech.

but it was pointed out in the official OnePlus forum that we can see a bit of the OnePlus One phone in this photo. see: http://forums.oneplus.net/threads/the-onep...-efficient.370/

Unboxing by Stev Kondik @ Cyanogen

hahaha... not a joke.

but everyone involved in the phone, including CynogenMod team is very tight lipped about this phone. they don't want any leak before 23rd April.

there's already a few CM team guys on the OnePlus forum, including Steve Kondik. but they are being careful not to say too much about the phone.

so... looks like we're still gonna have to wait.

btw, they have another contest. they are so confident with the camera on this phone that they will be sending three engineering units (specifically for the camera and will be in special case) to three lucky people.
see: http://forums.oneplus.net/threads/contest-...hoto-mania.815/

the three will get to try out the camera but will need to update and share on Google+ all the photos taken. then after all that, once phone is released, the three will also get one phone each.

calling photography guru... aspire2oo6

wanna try? you can test out the camera (if selected) and share what you think. if dun like the phone, can always give to me...

just need to submit one photo onto their forum and they will choose three winners.

good luck to anyone joining...

updated with latest info...

Processor now confirmed to be Snapdragon 801 (AC variant) clocked at 2.5GHz. It'll come with 3GB RAM.

did i mention it'll ship with CyanaogenMod and will have at least 2 years support from CM team?

all these... and more... for below usd400 (US pricing).

good chance i might get one myself. just hope officially coming to MY.

well, i dun like to be someone to say 100% unless its already in my hands. even queuing up to buy anything... never know... comes to your turn, they put up a sign that says SOLD OUT.

for me... i still have my love for Note 2. but yes, this OnePlus is really giving me reasons to love it more with each tease/ announcement.

i just need some more 'proof' on the camera + some other usability...

ya, with that price tag and the official CM support, i'm just kinda surprised the more techie members in this forum is not really interesting or posting here...

in a way... this is true. i guess we'll know on 23rd April when this is announced.

but i guess this is what happens for non-mainstream/ big name phones.

some in the forum are saying OnePlus will actually give out the phone as well. let's see how accurate is the person who said that...

but I won't be surprised seeing how they actually rewarded a forumer with invite the launch.

they only have plans for one phone this year and it's going to be 5.5".

but seriously, if you have the chance, give a large phone a try. i can safely say those who have tried won't go back to smaller phones. there's no concern about not being able to fit into pockets, etc... millions of note users can tell you that.

back to this OnePlus One. well, OnePlus said they'll be able to fit a 5.5" screen into the width of a Sony Xperia Z1. so, let's see how they do this on the 23rd April, when this phone is officially launched.

as for warranty... i guess until they officially sell in Malaysia, otherwise, its going to be like AP sets -- at own risk.

when made available to Malaysia, i think any claims -- ship back to them. if its their fault, they will cover all costs, etc... that's what they said in their latest update.

i think the update is just very general. they had earlier said their initial launch country will be about 12 or so...

and if its anything like what OPPO has got, Malaysia is not on OPPO list. <-- i 'placed' a pre-order for Find 7a, and when i pulled down the country menu to select Malaysia, Malaysia is not in the list.

ya man... that's dem cheeky.

but it sure looks like the World Cup match lineup... haha...

maybe...

but see how. if I desperate, might ask friends from launch country to buy and ship to me.
