The editors didn't like
Non-removable battery
No expandable storage
Limited availability
Charging cable is too short
Bad placement of camera sensor
Mediocre camera
Voice Wakeup feature doesn't work
Touch screen is over sensitive
Customizations could be overwhelming for new Android users
The phone is almost unavailable at the moment due
Unappealing backplate
Muted colors from the camera
Not compatible with CDMA networks
Not available except with invite
A little too huge for comfortable one-hand use
Even after shrinking the screen by enabling on-screen buttons
The camera's blurry
Washed-out performance is surprising for a 13MP device
The 5.5-inch display is too wide to use with one hand
And the Android-based CyanogenMod operating system isn't very stable at the moment. The camera is mediocre
And audio volume during calls is too soft. Its 4G radio won't work on every network
Buttons beneath display not bright enough
Inviteonly availability
Somewhat heavy
Big and bulky
Limited 4G support in UK
Subpar audio performance
Hard to get one! CyanogenMod will likely transition to OnePlus' Android ROM
Some software bugs. Disappointing call quality
Low-light photo taking abilities are a bit disappointing
Performance occasionally suffers during intense multitasking sessions. Camera is only average—shots are decent
But hardly stunning. Extremely limited availability
Even if you score a preorder
Be prepared to wait
Very limited availability
Fairly bulky
Materials used in the Sandstone Black (rear shell) version might fail the test of time
Camera UI has some weaknesses that we hope are addressed
Design and manufacturing, Small price difference between the 16 GB and 64 GB, System is perfectly fluid and responsive, CyanogenMod's extra customisation options, Camera picture quality in good light, Sheer processing power, Shoots UHD and "4K DCI" video,
Camera picture quality in low light, Display: black lacks depth
It's hard not to like the OnePlus One. It's pretty close to perfect, and once you add price to the equation, it's a tough one to resist. The only problem is its by-invitation-only purchase scheme, which means you'll have to be patient—or lucky—to get one....

Galaxy S5-level processing power, Low $300 price tag, Grippy textured back is unique, Great battery life
Many, many bugs and major glitches, Connection issues with Wi-Fi and LTE, Uncomfortable to hold, No MicroSD storage, Poor customer service
If you're a geek willing to tolerate a lot of bugs, glitches, quirks, and poor customer service for a low price, the OnePlus One remains a good deal. This is essentially a Galaxy S5 (without waterproofing) or HTC One M8 for half the price. It can be a s...

Well built, Runs CyanogenMod, Powerful, Extremely good value for money
Lacks wireless charging, No waterproofing, No SD card or removable battery option
A terrific piece of hardware. It's not quite “no compromise” as some features (wireless charging, waterproofing, SD card slot, etc) are missing. Additionally there are some quirks with the software but, unlike most of the phone manufacturers, I can be con...
Overall for me personally it was a closely fought battle between the four phones. The LG and the Sony came out on top in design and software and only really lost out to the OnePlus One and the Oppo Find 7a when it came to cost. In the battle for specs the...

The problem so far has been getting hold of a OnePlus One. It has only been manufactured in limited quantities so far, with some gimmicky online competitions (one Android site called it a “trollout”) generating enormous enthusiasm, while allowing a few t...

The OnePlus One is a big and well built smartphone, It is super fast with great specs, The price is unbelievable
Very big and unweildy to use in one hand, iOS is a more secure and closed platform, Can you get an invite to buy?
The OnePlus One is an outstanding entry to the smartphone market. If you want a large screen phone, and you can live with Android's data-harvesting ways, it is a brilliant alternative to the iPhone 5c. You just have to be able to get one. But don't expect...
