The recently introduced OnePlus One smartphone currently has
limited availability, and can only be purchased by those who have
received invites - however on Wednesday, the company revealed the
general availability date.
The company, in a post on its
forum,
announced the OnePlus One will be given "increased general availability"
by June, and added, "after our product announcement, we realized that
far more people wanted the One than what we originally anticipated [...]
People who want it should be able to get an invite without much trouble
in June."
This global availability will follow the
roll-out to invited customers of the 16GB Silk White smartphones in
mid-May, and a 'larger batch' of 64GB Sandstone Black in early-June.
The
company post also outlines the future manufacturing plans of the
Android-based OnePlus One, where it noted it has increased the
production of 64GB Sandstone Black version of the OnePlus One
smartphone, saying it now knows "that people want the 64GB Sandstone
Black far more than the 16GB Silk White [.]"
The OnePlus
One smartphone was launched on April 23 with some staggering
specifications
at a rather low price, branding itself the '2014 Flagship Killer'.
The
Chinese smartphone startup has announced that the OnePlus One will be
available at a starting price of $299 (unlocked and without contract)
for the 16GB model (roughly Rs. 18,300), while the 64GB variant will be
available at $349 (roughly Rs. 21,350) - a clear blow at rivals who
charge hefty sums for the addition of inexpensive Flash storage.
The
One smartphone, when first announced, was given a Q2 launch with
initial availability in Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland,
France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain,
Sweden, Taiwan, the UK and the US.
Some key specifications
of the OnePlus One are its 5.5-inch IPS LCD full-HD display, 3GB of
RAM, a 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 SoC, 13-megapixel rear
and 5-megapixel front-facing camera, 4G LTE connectivity and 3100mAh
battery.
