Christmas 2014 Offer: OnePlus One Now Available Without Invites
Christmas 2014 Offer: OnePlus One Now Available Without InvitesOnePlus official page screen-shot

Popular smartphone maker, OnePlus, announced the sale of its flagship smartphone, One, without invites as part of its Christmas holiday offer.

The company webpage reads- "The Gift of One, Bring The One to Home. Hurry Offer Ends Soon"

This is a welcome move by the company to build loyalty among its ever growing tech-savvy fans. However, the offer comes with a caveat. Consumers can order the phone without invites only till the stock lasts. After that, people have to follow invite-only procedure to get their hands on the OnePlus One.

Prospective consumers can now head to OnePlus home page [HERE] and book 16GB One (Silk White) for $299/€269 (around ₹18,260) and Black Sandstone model- 64GB for $349/€299 (around ₹21,320).

For the un-initiated, the invite-system requires users to go through the cumbersome route of winning the contest/promotional events via Facebook, Twitter and other social platform network.

After some agonizing wait, few lucky consumers get a pass (or an invite) and are eligible to book the device.
