Everything You Need to Know About the OnePlus One
This is a handy dandy list of the immense work I've done with the OnePlus One. It is a device that is easily my favorite of 2014. Many of these words have been featured by The Tech Block, and one has been featured by OnePlus themselves. I put this all together in a post mainly for me. But if you need a starting point with the OnePlus One. This is where it should be.
Early Thoughts
I bought the OnePlus One for one reason, to review. I figured the phone would be pretty good. But I was happy with my Nexus 5, why upgrade? Here are my initial and early thoughts of the OnePlus One.
The Review Trilogy
The OnePlus One was such a polarizing device, it was impossible to write a single piece that could adequately capture everything about the device. Here is where the Review Trilogy was born. One piece dedicated to each of the major facets of a device. Hardware, Software, Camera.
Features
When I finished the OnePlus One Review Trilogy, I knew there was still so much that I wanted to say. This is where the Three Months In, Six Months In, and other features come into play.
Three Months In
My Three Months In piece gives me a much clearer picture of living with the OnePlus One as my daily driver. I allow myself one month to review a device. But I always find new great features or terrible bugs after a review has ended. This gets you caught up on where I stand after some time has passed.
Top Five: Features
My Top Five: Features consist of the top five features for Hardware, Software, and Camera(just like what I reviewed!). They’re short and sweet and give you a bite sized insight into the great things about the phone.

Compared: OnePlus One vs Nexus 6
The OnePlus One was easily the most polarizing device of 2014. At the tail end of 2014, the Nexus 6 came crashing down. Two flagship level phones that have captivated many Android enthusiasts. The only question you need to ask: Which one is better?
