June 17, 2025
When it launched last year, Chinese manufacturerOnePlusreceived a lot of support from its customers despite being a newcomer to the market and one year later, theOnePlus 2looks set to follow in its predecessor’s footsteps.
For customers around the world, the company sells the OnePlus 2 in the same way the OnePlus One was and as a result, you need to wait for an invite to buy before you can actually buy the handset. The company does this to preserve its inventory but it usually means you need to wait for an invite to become available – or youhack the system to jump 300,000 places in the queue– unless you live inChinaof course.
