OnePlus has announced via its official forums that the OnePlus X is now available to buy completely invite-free. You no longer need to wait until a Tuesday to buy the device without an invitation, just head to OnePlus.net and add the phone to your basket.
We're extremely excited to be making the OnePlus X invite-free more quickly this time around. With every device we release, we grow more mature and more adept at handling the demands and expectations of our community. We largely owe our success to your unrelenting support, so we hope that this development will make the process of purchasing your very own OnePlus X as smooth and effortless as it can possibly be.
This marks the quickest time it's taken any of OnePlus' devices to go from launch to invite-free. The manufacturer's original phone, the OnePlus One, wasn't available to buy without an invite until around one year after it was launched. The OnePlus 2 took four months to achieve the same status, and the OnePlus X took around three months.
The OnePlus X was one of the best affordable phones launched last year. In fact, I kinda wish the company's flagship phone was just a bigger version of the X with a better camera. At just $249 unlocked, it's hard to think of a phone as complete and premium-looking for the same price.
With future phone releases, OnePlus would eventually like to reduce the time between launch and completely open sales even further. Perhaps at some point even offering the device for sale right off the bat. As it gets its inventory management under tighter control, that becomes a more likely possibility with every new phone launch.
