So I've had mine for awhile and I can honestly say this is the best phone I've ever owned. I've been on a Windows Phone kick for awhile (920, 925, 1020, 1520) as well as an iPhone 5, HTC One, and an LG OG Pro.

Android, which used to bug the hell out of me, feels very mature and fast (at least with CM). I do miss some things, I liked Blinkfeed on the HTC One and the "people" app on Windows Phones and I believe Cortana is currently better than Google Now. That said, I'm a big fan of the app start-up scene, and getting access to a lot of "non-essential" but awesome apps I did not have before is great.

The phone build quality isn't at the level of Apple, Nokia, or HTC in my opinion, mainly due to material choices but there is nothing "wrong" with is, it just doesn't feel quite as sturdy. More Samsung/LG-ish to me. The camera quality is acceptable (although I constantly miss my 1020 at concerts), the screen is good to excellent, the hardware is fast, and despite its size it fits well in my pocket and hands.

If I could change one irritating thing, it would be the USB connector on the bottom. It seems weak and I have nearly put the cable in upside down a few times because it is flexible. It's a minor quibble but reversible USB can't get here fast enough.
 
My ONLY gripe with android so far, now switching from 5 years of iphones is the damn copy and paste...it's been pissing me off. Every app does it differently which sucks.
 
So i swung by my local att store today and put the OnePlus face to face with the new iPhone 6+: my god is the new Apple too big. The earpiece up is taller on the iPhone, and the side bezels plus side buttons are wider on the iPhone. My oneplus is just at the edge of size that my mount on the motorcycle can accept.
 
Yea I think I'll just get a moto x then. The m9 isn't suppose to be out until March 2015. But I guess I can just wait for the official nexus announcement.
 
New phone arrived. Yellow screen is hardly noticeable if not nonexistent. The backlighting looks a lot better.

I'm waiting for my screen protector before I take that plastic thing off though so I can take some quality pics.

Currently copying my backup files back onto the new OPO before I flash CM 0925.
 
I've been using the phone for over a month and I'm really liking it. For the price it's actually an awesome phone. I haven't been issued any invites yet though... hmm...
 
The phone is a steal for the price and the little problems didn't bother me, but I wouldn't recommend it to a non-techie or Type A person. There's no customer support to speak of and the percentage of people receiving phones with flaws is pretty high.

It would have been a flagship killer for the last gen of phones, but the current gen of devices being released are pretty damn nice.
 
I'm skipping you as you added your name to the top of the spreadsheet against any form of decorum.

I apologize I didn't know there was an order. I thought people were just being contacted by DM on the list. I just put my name in where somebody didn't want one anymore.

I fixed it and apologize.
 
My wife won the LG G3 contest from when the phone was released and it was finally delivered today 🙂
I wonder what I can get for it. If not should I keep and sell the OPO
 
I'm loving my 64 gig opo. So much better than my galaxy s3. Im about to jump onto cricket for the 5 gig data plan and the phone will pay for itself in a few months 🙂

I haven't noticed any yellowing.
