Sounds good. You can cut a sim card down in size from micro to nano - I did mine :-)

That's exactly what I ended up doing last night smile

I got me new sim card, but [alledgedly] Three were having major issues yesterday, so could not help with swapping over numbers, etc.

I cut my current one down last night and it works a treat smile

Initial impressions from the OP2 ..... AWESOME smile

Noticably faster than the OPO - but again, I'm not a power user. Loving it so far smile

Just received my invite so ordered a oneplus two. Will see how long it takes to arrive now! I'm interested to see if its a worthwhile upgrade from my oneplus one.

Lucky man! Where were you on the invite list (or did you receive via another method)?

I was on the invite list with a different email to what I'd bought the Oneplus One with. If I remember correctly I was about 10000 on the list.

My OnePlus One has a small crack so I'm hoping my invite comes along shortly. I'm currently showing as 39,323. Trying to decide which cover... Rosewood current favourite but may just stick with Sandstone.

Interesting, I just got (and used) my invite about 10 minutes ago, however it came to the email I had used to buy a Oneplus One and not the email address that's sitting at about 36,000 in the reserve list.

I'm impressed. I was sure it would be the end of September before I saw an invite in my inbox, fair play to Oneplus, they proved me wrong big time.

Great stuff thumbup

The more I use mine, the more I love it smile

And they've released an OS update today and another due in 2 weeks to fix issues and make some tweaks.

If anyone does order one, don't use the express option. It costs £10 and is slower than the usual delivery option wink

My only observation is that I had a gel-type cover on my OPO. One benefit is that it never slipped from the hand. I don't have a case for the 2 yet and I've changed the back to the kevlar one. But it feels very slippy. Tempted to swap the back, back to the original sandstone one.

I'm going to get a cover for it so that will address it, but slippy is the word of the day smile

I have an S6 at the moment that's akin to holding a bar of soap, so I'm interested to see how it compares with the Rosewood back.

Speaking of which, the Rosewood back. Rosewood. Wood. On a phone. I'm properly excited about this, I don't keep my phones in a plastic/rubber case and I'm really really looking forward to seeing how it feels. The combo of glass, metal and wood should feel bleedin' fantastic.

I had the option of picking whichever back I wanted.

It was a close call between the kevlar and rosewood. But, to be honest, I'm not really that fussed as I'll have a case on it anyway, so you won't know.

I'm deffo going for one of the 'wood' backs - just makes it even more different to the normal android bricks.

You'll be bored after a couple of weeks like normal, so on that basis go for rosewood as I'll be more likely to buy it off you when you come to sell biggrin

My invite came through today, so I've got the 64gb OPT with the Kevlar cover and a tempered glass screen protector on the way.

Was tempted by the case but I'll see what the kevlar is like in hand first. If it is teflon-esque then I'll probably just get another diztronic case. The OPO diztronic case is the reason my OPO still looks brand new!

Going by Kinky's words re the Kevlar case, diztronic will be gaining some repeat business!
