Thousands of fans are still awaiting a OnePlus One invitation, but there is another way to buy the 2014 flagship killer! Here are 4 5 stores you can buy the OnePlus One without invitation.
The 4 5 stores we are listing have been included either because we know they are based in China with good contacts, have proven track record or have actually shown us physical proof they have had the OnePlus One in stock (although by the time many of you read this I guess those stock to have been depleted).
Important: before buying the OnePlus One from China
As we have reported before, OnePlus One phones in China are sold in batches through JD.com without invitation. This is a proven method for China and one which Huawei and Xiaomi have been using for years with success, it also means that there are many more OPO in China than there are elsewhere.
Before ordering the OnePlus One from China you will want to weigh up the pros and cons:
Pros
- You don’t need an invitation.
- The phone will be in your hands quicker than the international model
- You will be the envy of your friends
Cons
- The prices will likely be higher than the official retail price
- The Chinese version of the OPO comes with ColorOS NOT CyanogenMod 11S, however you can install CM.
- You might have issues with warranty turn around time.
- So keep these points in mind before ordering.
