OnePlus X: 5 Things Before Buying! #Helpful Post

his is the oneplus X but before you

pick one up these are five things you

should know

so what's up guys Jonathan here and the

first thing we're going to talk about is

the price 249 freaking dollars we got a

chance to check out the oneplus X early

so oneplus is up on stage doing the

thing they announce the price and

everyone's like yeah now keep in mind

that price is for the onyx glass version

if you've heard anything about a ceramic

version that does exist but it's

extremely limited and currently is only

going to be available in Europe and

India for 369 euros on top of the

aggressive pricing this is not meant to

be a giant phone it's 5 inches so it's

going to be great for one-handed use and

if you look closely along the sides

those are 17 precision micro cuts and

what that's going to do is ensure better

grip now the next thing we're going to

talk about is the display your getting a

full 1920 by 1080 resolution so even

though you're not going to pay a ton for

this phone you're not getting ripped on

resolution the kicker here though is for

the first time ever one plus decided to

go with AMOLED for this phone which i

think is awesome and that combined with

oxygen OS is dark mode it's gonna help

lead to better battery efficiency now

where we were shooting there was a ton

of natural light so I really wasn't in

the optimal environment to really check

out the display but from first

impressions it looked really good and

honestly you really wouldn't guess that

this phone and this display was under

300 bucks so following that the third

thing we're going to talk about is the

specs what exactly it is 250 bucks get

you inside as a snapdragon 801

3 gigs of ram a 2525 milliamp hour

battery and as far as the camera goes

you're getting a 13 megapixel rear

shooter with an aperture of f-22

now obviously the 801 isn't the latest

and greatest processor but considering

what you're paying for this phone I

think it's a solid choice and initial

impressions on performance were solid

now as far as the camera goes I was

really only able to check out the

pictures that I took on the phone itself

so I will reserve full judgment until I

get this in-house but overall the

pictures seemed decent I really wouldn't

bank on this having an exceptional

camera it's going to do the job but it's

not going to be amazing now the fourth

thing we're going to talk about is the

fact that there are three very useful

elements of this phone the first of

which being micro SD card expandability

there is still the dual SIM option but

you have the choice now so you can go

with two SIM cards or one SIM card and

microSD card expansion up to

a gigabytes the next really useful thing

on this phone is the alert slider which

gives you three modes of functionality

mute which is pretty self-explanatory

that is going to mute all notifications

priority is going to allow you to

receive notifications from only the

people you want notifications coming

from and then lastly all which means

you're getting everything

now the third really useful feature on

the oneplus X is get ready

FM mother-effing radio now that might

not sound like a big deal but I think

this is actually cool you may be in a

situation where you don't have Wi-Fi you

want to save data and just want to

listen to good old-fashioned radio with

the oneplus X now you can now the last

thing you should know is the fact that

unfortunately this is still going to be

based off one plus is invite system so

initial availability and trying to get

your hands on one of these might not be

the easiest task in the world but the

good news is though is that one plus did

let us know the time period for this

invite system is only going to be a

month you're not gonna have to wait a

crazy amount of time aside from that

this looks like a really solid phone I

really enjoy oxygen OS do you keep in

mind though that this is running

lollipop but knowing one plus I don't

think marshmallow is too far off and

really as far as budget phone options

ago I think there's going to be a really

serious contender

now hopefully you enjoyed the video if

you did and you are feeling like being

awesome make sure to go drink dancing
