After the initial teaser, Amazon India has finally listed the OnePlus One on its
store. Exclusively available via Amazon, it still follows the
invite-only procedure to get the phone. While the OnePlus One is still to
officially launch in India, there are strong indications that the price will
be under Rs 25,000.
If the chatter on the web is to be believed then, the device will be available from December 2.
Here’s how you get the invite:
1. For an invite, users will have to subscribe to the OnePlus One newsletter, and then enter contests and events hosted by the company for India or by Amazon.in.

We had a chance to review the OnePlus One and we were left
impressed by what it had to offer. It’s a large 5.5-inch phone, with a great
1080×1920 pixel resolution display. The display comes with Gorilla Glass 3
protection and the same adaptive backlight technology that’s seen in some Sharp
displays. In addition, the phone is one of the few to have 3GB of RAM and is powered
by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 SoC with a quad-core processor clocked at 2.5GHz
with Adreno 330 GPU.
There’s a a 13-megapixel rear IMX214
sensor with a six-lens array and f/2.0 aperture that boasts quick shutter speed
of only 0.3-seconds. It also comes with a 5-megapixel front-facing
camera. Software wise, the One features a customised version of
CyanogenMod ROM called CM 11S. The software is based on Android 4.4 KitKat.
There’s no microSD card slot in the
phone, and the phone only comes in 16 or 64 GB on-board storage. Connectivity
includes: 4G LTE (region dependent), Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 4.0,
and NFC functionality. The battery is rated at 3,100mAh and is non-removable.
