One Plus One was announced back in April 2014 and since then, it has been in tremendous demand in USA and other markets where they formerly where shipping with invite system. From OCTOBER 27, that's yesterday you can pre-order One Plus One from their website with limit of two devices per order. As posted by Carl- "one of the staff member of the company"- via One Plus forums on August 20 , The company was hiring a General Manager for India.
Friends,
We understand that the excitement about OnePlus is real, but don't think we're slacking off just because we haven't made any major announcements. In the past few months we've seen some amazing traction. We know that Indian customers have very high demands and expectations, which is why we've been working hard behind the scenes to take OnePlus to India.
A key figure to our success in India will be our General Manager who will help us set up the India team and operations. Today, we're announcing that we're hiring for this position. Like any other company, we're looking for experience, brains, and perseverance - but none of this matters if we don't share the same dreams or connect on culture.
We need your help to source the crazy talent that will help build OnePlus into an Indian success story. Please have a look at our job description, and share it with whomever you think might be a good fit.
Together, we'll change the trajectory of the Indian tech scene.
On OCT 25 Saturday, Mr.Carl posted a thread with the title "Invites For India" where-in he described the methodology of How One Plus will sell phones in India via Invite system. Mr.Carl also mentioned that they'd be working with local partners which will be a efficient and comparatively an easy way for people to get hands with the device.
Friends, Let me first start by wishing you a (belated) very happy Diwali! From everyone at OnePlus, we hope it was filled with joy, light and family.
Another week is now gone meaning we’re one week closer to bringing the One to India.
We’ve made tremendous progress in just the last week and are grateful to all of our partners who took time during their holiday to help us move this forward.
We’ll be ready to share some very exciting updates with you in the coming weeks. But for now, we wanted to talk a little about how you’ll be able to get the One in India.
As with our current launch countries, Indian users will be able to purchase the One with an India specific invite. Invites have been immensely helpful for us thus far in our current launch countries. They allow us to control our inventory, scale our team and support services to grow along with demand and create an overall better experience for those users with the One. As this is our first experience with the Indian market, we didn’t want to be too ambitious. We are more concerned with offering outstanding service and experiences for users than getting the One in as many hands as possible. It will take us some time to learn and the invites are a great way for us to do that.
Don’t worry.
Invites will be neither scarce nor impossible to come by. We’ll also be working with a local partner for an even easier way to get your hands on the One. In addition, invites will also be available through our forums and social media channels… but more information on that a bit later.
The invite system may not stay in place forever. We’re brand new to the region and need to control our risks. However, we will quickly learn and adapt to make sure we’re always doing our best for our Indian fans. For now, though, we hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday weekend. We’re excited to see you soon!
