The OnePlus One is finally here. It is now officially available on Amazon.in for Rs. 21,999 for the Sandstone 64GB version. You will still need an invitation to place the order. It is a powerful hardware with a very good price tag.
I have already done the review of OnePlus One. No doubt it is the best you can get and for Rs. 21,999 it gets even better. It is much cheaper to get the OPO from India than buying from oneplus.net website and then end up paying about Rs. 27K (including customs) for the same.
This handset sports a 5.5 inch screen with FHD resolution. It is single SIM with 4G support. The processor used is qualcomm snapdragon 801 2.5GHz quad core processor with Adreno 330 GPU. There is 3GB RAM and 64GB internal storage.
Rear camera is 13MP and front camera is a 5MP. You can shoot and play 4K videos on the OnePlus one handset. Key features are 4G, 3G, 2G, Wi-Fi, GPS, NFC and Bluetooth. The OPO comes with a 3100 mAh battery. Do note that OnePlus will not get further Cyanogen updates in India.
For now you can buy the OPO from Amazon.in for Rs. 21,999 if you have the invitation.
https://cyngn.com/blog/2014/12/commitment-to-our-users/ indian version of OPO will get software update
Cyanogen have clearly stated that the global version of OPO will receive further updates. That logically means that the Indian version ( sold via amazon india ) will not receive further updates.
Hi Gogi Sir, just recieved Oneplus one handset, everything looks cool but one initial problem
When using Torch i found that flash dual led has greenish tint & bit dim
Where as my redmi 1s torch/led is white & bright
Pls reply if you noticed the same
How is the camera output with flash?
Gogi sir Photos are good with flash but the led are bit on greenish tint , did u notice this or its just me alone
& also notification light led when set to white gives little blue tint & navigation buttons r blue (but in your review they r white )when they light up………..weird if its just me alone or its some unknown feature 😀
thanks pls do reply if you noticed

OPO has the best camera it is using 6 lens Sony Exmor IMX 214.
Thanks gogi..
Checked multiple reviews..
Still in Confusion to go for it or wait for Mi4.
If not in a hurry better wait for Mi4.
Gogi plz help ur followers to get opo invitation, tel me da fastest n easiest way to get the pass?
Go for OPO.
Believe me MiUi is restrictive. Miui is too heavy and lags a lot.And Xiaomi won’t release source kernel. I have used Mi3. If you change default dialer it crashes. And bugs……so many bugs in miui…
Cyanogen is way better. And today they have cleared that they are going to support Indian devices and they will get updates.
After purchasing can u give me the pass frnd?
Hey bro, if u are not intrestd plz pass ur invitation to me. I wna gift this to my sis. Mail me gauravbisht86@gmail.comcom. thanks in advance, else ur invi wil expire.

Sandisk Ultra Dual 16 GB On-The-Go Pendrive will this support One plus & Mi phones
Thanks
Getting my One tomm ……Cheers 🙂
Arnish, you will find the answer here http://www.gogi.in/oneplus-one-review.html
I can’t believe these comments!!
do you guys want a flagship phone for price of an entry level phone or something?
Can’t wait to get this as soon as I get an invite!
Yes, especially as it is priced some 3 k LESS than the expected 25 k mark, and for an international branded phone, not just getting some high-end SoC and packing it in a cardboard box. It just shows that complaining has become a fashion. Sure you need an invite but you also need that to get a Gmail Id! This is the best deal out there in terms of value for money.
Gogi sir,is it true that oneplus will bring the 16 gb also.
Not sure yet, but they could.
Awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!! Welcome OnePlus to India…. great pricing !!!!!! what about 16gb when will that be released ???
I have an invite anyone interested contact me on ranjan.hjp@gmail.com
what about service centers, can you list them
also i heard there are some issues like yellow bug,restart..etc
found some videos also
youtube.com/watch?v=_BKn81tIofc
youtube.com/watch?v=yT4woOg-B4A
youtube.com/watch?v=7AfhIBh8Rdk
could you please clarify me about these,so that i can go ahead and buy it
I am using OPO for last 3 weeks and the only bug I noticed is occasional restart. My phone got restarted about 3 times in 3 weeks of use. But same happens with my Note 2 as well.
Didnt understand the Maths behind these pricings,
ZTE Grand S2 for 13,999/-
OPO for 21,999/-
Didfference –
800 SOC – 801 SOC (Just an overclocking)
2 Gb Ram – 3 Gb RAM (2GB will be sufficient for the all the Apps currently in Service and most of them in Pipe line, Game developers will always try to bridge the gap between the low end devices and high end divices fr the sake of thier products reachabilty)
3G – 4G (4G really, when are we going to see an affordable 4G pack in india, after a decade?)
Rest all the same other than the Buiild Quality, which is good for OPO.
So for all these so call future proof features, if any one is paying the extra amount equal to the price of another entry level LTE phone (Redmi Note). I dont understand the Math here. As am sure all the buyers of OPO is going ot ditch it after three years max, which doesnt mean that far future.
Just my thoughts.
Difference is quality naveen.
Difference is service..
Difference is commitment to update device for two years. Good luck getting update for ZTE grand s2.
Difference is stock android like user experience.
Difference is 64 GB of storage.
Difference in camera quality.
Difference in display quality.
Opo has the same specs like htc one m8 or Samsung galaxy s5. And design looks great. Looks like a premium device.
agree with what naveen says.
Besides who will give u service for One plus in India. How many service centers are there currently ????
Till today even 3G is costly ,heavens knows when 4G will reach the common man.
Just an overpriced phone with no support to look out for if anything happens to the phone.
Difference is quality naveen.
# Already agreed on that…:-)
Difference is service..
# Are we sure about the Service, ZTE had already got 300+ service centres in india, what about OPO?
Difference is commitment to update device for two years. Good luck getting update for ZTE grand s2.
#2 years, sure with their custom rom, KITKAT is for sure for OPO. But does that matter for the common users who dare even to root the phone. I dont think so.
Difference is stock android like user experience.
#If you are mentioning of cyanogenmod, then it is not going to be supported in india. They will be pushing thier own custom rom in OPO in future.
Difference is 64 GB of storage.
# I beleive you have missed out the expandable SD Card slot in ZTE.
Difference in camera quality.
# This is on area i cant comment; as i dont have seen any comparison on the quality yet….:-)
Difference in display quality.
# Both of them are using 1080 IPS display with cornning gorilla glass protection. One is IPS and the other LTPS, does that make a big difference for the price of 9K.
Opo has the same specs like htc one m8 or Samsung galaxy s5. And design looks great. Looks like a premium device…
# This is where the problem lies in our cusumer mindset, we always compare with the HIGH priced phones, even though we know that there are affordable alternatives with the same quality. Why cant we compare this with Mi4, What is the price expected for Mi4 in india. Will we say it will be 22K, after seeing Mi3 sales for 14K?
Again this is just thoughts, no offence meant. And thanks to @Rock for the food for thought…:-)
@AK happy that you share the same opinion….:-)
Difference is service..
# Are we sure about the Service, ZTE had already got 300+ service centres in india, what about OPO?
* Micromax has got more service centers than that. But they are one of the worst service providers. Numbers of service centers doesnt make a diffrence.
Difference is commitment to update device for two years. Good luck getting update for ZTE grand s2.
#2 years, sure with their custom rom, KITKAT is for sure for OPO. But does that matter for the common users who dare even to root the phone. I dont think so.
* Kitkat is already there on the OPO. Work on the Lollipop started a month ago. Try using Lollipop and you will never be able to look back.
Two years commitemnet for update is a big thing. Nobody wants to be stuck in old world. I know average user doesnt know the diffrence but average user will happily upgrade. If you doesnt know about the thing doesnt mean that it is not useful or beneficial.
Difference is stock android like user experience.
#If you are mentioning of cyanogenmod, then it is not going to be supported in india. They will be pushing thier own custom rom in OPO in future.
* I said stock android like user experience. If you read post of OPO of their new development they already have said Google has done the hard work. We wont change it completely. It will be added benefits like Cyanogenmod.
Difference is 64 GB of storage.
# I beleive you have missed out the expandable SD Card slot in ZTE.
* Expandeable memory is not same as in built memory. Too much diffrence in it. I dont know if you can move apps to memory but even if you can move its a hassle. And transfer speed is too low of memory card.
Difference in display quality.
# Both of them are using 1080 IPS display with cornning gorilla glass protection. One is IPS and the other LTPS, does that make a big difference for the price of 9K.
* It is the quality of the display that matters. Just compare micromax mobile screens to Samsung, iPhone, OnePlus One or Lg you will notice a huge diffrence. Now this doesnt make a big price diffrence of 9k but it sure does make some diffrence.
Opo has the same specs like htc one m8 or Samsung galaxy s5. And design looks great. Looks like a premium device…
# This is where the problem lies in our cusumer mindset, we always compare with the HIGH priced phones, even though we know that there are affordable alternatives with the same quality. Why cant we compare this with Mi4, What is the price expected for Mi4 in india. Will we say it will be 22K, after seeing Mi3 sales for 14K?
* Lets compare it with Mi4 prices are around 20000 if you convert it into Indian Currency. I will bet you if Mi4 is launched in India within 3 months it will be priced more than 18000. Mi3 they sold cheap because they wanted to enter into Indian market and make a impression. And you know xiaomi will never release source code for Mi4. So you will be stuck with Miui forever.
Now if you consider all above points it sure makes a diffrence more than 9000. Again this are my experiences, no offence meant.
Here are prices of Xiaomi.in China
16gb – 320$ – Around 19500 INR
64gb – 405$ – Around 24500 INR
Guys, to each.. his own..
Naveen, if you are trying to find reasons to buy ONE, you can check from the feedback from other friends.
If you have already decided that you are more than happy with ZTE Grand, that is great. You are saving yourself a tidy sum.
No point in arguing.
Can Anyone invite me.
Any info on which 4g bands it support?
4G Network LTE 700 / 1700 / 1800 / 2100 / 2300 / 2600
Gogi ,opo launched cheaper than what we thought ! i read your review ,no doubt its a great hardware but do you think its a ‘long lasting phone’ ? what you will buy if you get nexus 5 at 20,299/- ?
It is same hardware found on high end phone, go ahead…. if you can get one.
Let’s see !
Waiting for one invitation from last one year. Today may be my lucky day?
Release 16 gb at 18k. Above 20k not quite a flagship killer.
Gogiji pls tell me how will I able to get an invitation…
Check the amazon.in website.
Looking for invite.. Please share with me if any one have.
