How to Get A OnePlus 2 Invite: 5 Simple Methods

Last year when the legendary OnePlus One had launched there was high level of frustration among fans who wanted to get their hands on the device. And that was mainly due to the company's not so cool marketing tactics - the dreaded ‘Invite System'.

But we could hardly blame the company for that - OnePlus was just another new company in the smartphone market and they had never expected such a demand for their flagship killer. Needless to say that demand for the ‘Flagship Killer' went far above the no of stocks.

Now it's over an year since the launch, and the company has launched their second generation of ‘Flagship Killer' dubbed the OnePlus 2. Unfortunately the company has made little amends too this time, since a buyer has to again through the not so popular Invite System.

Love jumping up a queue? Here's how!

Unlike previous years OnePlus had decided on a system to reward their loyal fans who have supported their company throughout the past year. Since the company believes that word of mouth is the best form of publicity the company will reward those who spreads the word on the invite system. To put it in a simple way, one can jump up the queue for every person who signups for the invite via his unique link.

Post signing up for an invite every user will get one unique link which he or she can share with family and friends via various social media, mail and what not!

This has resulted in many a people creating fake email ids just for the fact of jumping up the queue. Hence the number of registered individuals are not actually a count of people interested to buy the device. In fact it's an inflated number. But we can't blame the company for that - it's just that their plan of pleasing their fans simply backfired.

On the other hand, if you are buyer who doesn't want to delve in these unfair means of jumping up the queue via all wrong ways possible, it would mean that you would sliding downhill for every new referral sign ups.
