You normally need an invite? What's that all about? Samsung never invited me to buy their phone - I feel slightly insulted.

Nexus has made me an Android snob. This is undoubtedly a very good phone - even great for that price, but PURE Android only please. Still, HOT.

Really nice phone great size but plagued with software bugs.
The sd card problem has been fixed with an update.
But still has problems with bluetooth contacts not syncing with your car,notification led cycles through all colours instead of a different colour for email,txt whatapp etc.Proximity sensor sometimes doesnt work,phone vibrates constantly while on a call.

I'm with you on the pure Android experience. My Galaxy S6 which has some of the fastest hardware in a phone, runs like a sack of crap with Samsung/EE ROM. Once Marshmallow is out I'm going to get a custom ROM for a stock experience.

Basically is stock 'PURE' android, no bloatware. The only change is app permissions and slightly more customisability (dark mode/accent colour). I have the OnePlus 2, and the OS is similar to the OnePlus X. I think a few performance tweaks can still be made though.

You had to prove yourself to One Plus with the Samsung first, it's actually a compliment. Or a marketing gimmick.
I'll second what SilverBlack said above, good phone, iffy software. They're aware of a lot of the bugs, however based on the forum posts they've promised a lot of One Plus Two fixes and then gone quiet now the OPX is out. I'm very happy with it though.

How does this compare to something like the bluboo xtouch which is £118?
This website any good? Looks very similar to Alibaba/Aliexpress and had nightmares with them.

Does it have the same bands as the UK version? I think I remember that Banggood sells the grey import version from China, which has different 4G bands...
