Most excellent phone, from the quality packaging to the charger to the phone itself. Love mine. Brilliant phone.

Wait until one plus two afore considering it. Won't be long, then the dilemma will be which version. And OS.

Great phone. The latest CM rom is pretty smooth as well. I have just updated mine to lollipop which runs incredibly smoothly. Battery life is excellent.

I ordered on 17th, but Dhl messed up, they had it since the 22nd and apologised to me yesterday that they didn't get it to me, rather disappointed with DHL.

Oh well, looking forward to getting it in a couple of days. Looks awesome.

Was a bit tempted by the Vodafone HTC M8 / S5 offers, but I think the Oneplus still looks the best phone of the threi hate "skins"on phones and like CM a lot.

Could've been worse. Could've been City Link

I have been doing a lot of research on potential new phones and this phone has really caught my eye..may i ask if you guys ordered your OnePlus One phones via Amazon or via an invite?

If via Amazon, is this a good way to purchase? Any issues?

Thanks and Merry Christmas

It works on ALL networks, you only get 4G on EE & Three. You will get 3G perfectly fine on other networks

DHL really messed up, but I got mine two days ago.

Really impressed so far, with one exception.

I am a big IPlayer user, for some reason the app is Reeeeaaaaallly slow at downloading shows. A show that would take only 3 mins to download on my old S3 is taking half an hour... I think its a problem with the caching (?) Shame really.

Other than that it really does live up to the hype. I like how it is not very wide (not as much as the iPhone 6+ for example) so can't still slip in my shirt pocket.

I don't think that's 100% correct, it can't do band 20 (800mhz) which all 4 networks bought a slice of, it can do 1800 MHz (ee and three) and 2600 (bt, ee and Vodafone). IMHO the lack of band 20 is a significant downside to this phone.

Yup that's correct. So the only network where 4G won't work AT ALL is O2.
