Exactly. Can you imagine the bragging rights this company will use ...."Folks are breaking iphone 5S for an oneplus one"
For its initial list of 100 users, i can see either very rich folks or ardent supporters of the underdog . I would rather be in the invitee list

Right off the assembly line
The specs are great. The developers are supporting it.
But there's a major problem : This is the first phone built by the company and would it be reliable ? And imagine if the phone breaks down due to software or hardware glitch/fault, then who will provide support ??

No i don't trust a chinese phone and neither should you.

^^ lol
Oppo owns 1+ and oppo is super reliable
And developers like me who want the phone don't care about warranty or getting bricked cuz i will root it as soon as i get it and bricking is part of development

software glitch will be fixed by cyanogenmod and there wont be hardware problem cuz it can't give faulty hardware after such a international hype

Though i can fathom your fears over a new release, the last line is not appropriate. Micromax phones, till recently..read feb 2014, used to come from a chinese supplier only.

have you had a look at the team @ Oneplus?

I don't find any compromise in one-hand usability while using phones like Xperia L, Moto G, Xperia SP, Xperia ZR etc etc. Their body sizes are pretty similar despite display size varying from 4.3" to 4.6" . --If i can pull down the notification bar with my thumb , without needing to shift the phone(considerably) across my palm--- i consider it OK and a non-compromise. I think 9 out of 10 mobile phone users measure the one-hand usability factor based on this .

For some Black American dudes, 5.5" may be the limit. For me, 4.7" is a limit. For this OnePlus One phone, i'm okay with it if its at 5", a compromise i am willing to take.
