[Guest]

OnePlus proudly boasts that its latest smartphone is a "flagship killer." Does the OnePlus 2 have the arsenal to slay its competitors or is its metal chassis just filled with hot air?

How much did Oneplus pay you for this inane review that is for a phone that is 6 months old?
You reviewers NEVER bring up the terrible customer service, the terrible buggy Oxygen O.S., the constant everyday posts about how bad the Two is in their own forum.

Why would you even use the One for comparison, it's a TWO year old phone!

Why is that, are you too afraid to NOT recommend this phone?

For the price I willing to pay... This is too much @chuck...so don't overdo it

@ChuckUfarleys then a half-price and 6-months-old phone is comparable in terms of performance to the best phones of every brand? YES

I rather get a redmi note.

the CPU is only effectively quad core 1.55ghz and will throttle to 800mhz in just few min of video soft decoding stress test.

Looks like the new ZenPhone with its 3x optical zoom on the rear-facing camera may also be a looker in this price range.

Lol the OP2s price just went down. It is more worth it now than it ever was.

I still like my OnePlusOne. It also works great with Straigthtalk. No contract and no bloatware is the way to go! No way am I going to over $400 for a phone.

Operating Systems all have security problems that need to be patched regularly. This is an important buying consideration for me. You do not mention on what schedule OnePlus will be patching the OS?

I own a OnePlus 2 and I have to say that I would wish that at least one of the reviews I see online would mention how terrible their customer support is. It seems that it's pretty common knowledge, but I never saw this before actually buying the phone.

I have to say that at first I was happy with the device, but now I am having some issues with it and I contacted the support. At first they were stalling with some meaningless questions (like what's my IMEI even I had already provided it) but now I got to the point where they are simply ignoring me. It has been more then a week in which I wrote 5 messages and they did not even acknowledge that they saw them, not to mention actually doing something.

The bottom line it seems, there is no need to upgrade if you already own a Oneplus One. I have one Oneplus One (64GB) in the family running the stock CyanogenOS, and I see no reason to upgrade it. Very good smartphone all around. Hope the next generation will be better.
