Re: OnePlus One

I'm currently using a landfill android, a "Wiko" (local brand) Rainbow. 4 gb storage, quad core cpu, twin sim slots, 5 inch screen and up to at least 32 gb sd cards, no 4g though, at 139 euros list price , can be had at 119 in sales or online so about £100, and that covers the handset and import, and as (outside of sales periods) stores are forbidden to sell at a loss... so at 150% of the price of my cheapo handset with all the basics, you can tag on a lot of nice farkes and still not break the bank, so at the quoted price of 250 quid, and given the actual BOM, they may not be making a huge profit but it will be profitable... as long as they sell enough handsets. Come on, even the Google Nexus are being sold at almost cost price over here at 349 euros a set, so that's "only" about 290 quid...
