OnePlus made a farewell to the frustrating invite system.

Hey guys this is Santhosh kumar and I'm writing this with complete gratitude and with immense pleasure.

Yes the big announcement that +OnePlus  made today is that they are getting rid of the invite system they were practicing in order to manage the risks of the new company. Now it's not new.

The company named OnePlus, yet another  installment from China made their company's first smart phone called One. The phone when initially released came with a tagline #TheFlagshipKiller and of course that phone was a real flagship killer providing the performance of a phone that is priced at around 60k for a price of 23k Inr. But India is very price sensitive market and at the same time many people were branding..

This phone just broke the branding prestige thing in the minds of several people and people actually loved the build quality, camera, RAM, and performance for this price.

This phone came to India exclusively via +Amazon India 's online store and used invite system.

The buyer has to have an invite code with him/her to buy the phone. A user cannot buy the phone from OnePlus unless he has an invite code to purchase the phone. This was really frustrating for people who did not have invites. Later last week OnePlus sent emails to top reviewers saying "from now on anything could happen". The CEO of OnePlus teased that they were working on a completely different gadget and the posters hinted the product to be a gaming device. It was almost trending in twitter. Many people though that could be OnePlus Two.

But actually what changed the game is that OnePlus announced that the farewell party is happening to the OnePlus one's invite system. Which means the company is now selling the phones to the users without having the need to have invite codes. Which is awesome. Users can buy the phone whenever they want without the need of an invite.

The company said initially that the company was trying to manage the number of orders for their new device. Because people who got the phones said that the manufactured date of the phone was after the date of placing the order and the package came straight from China. But now the company is selling out the phones to the customers. Maybe the company is preparing to launch the next flagship killer.
