In 64 Seconds OnePlus 2 Sold Out

With these figures in mind it’s not hard to see why OnePlus decided to go for an invite system for the sequel: the company simply cannot keep up with the high demand.

64 seconds for 30,000 smartphones is impressive and over one million people have signed up to the company’s invite system for the device.

The line we’re talking about is OnePlus’ special OnePlus 2 reservation list. Because he’s a good sport, he actually notified OnePlus of the “hack” and has even offered to take down his blog post at their request. As it turns out OnePlus isn’t too happy about that either and has promised to crack down on exploiters. We’ve already implemented a few measures on our end to limit it, but before any invites go out we will fine-comb the list for fraudulent entries (there’s a multitude of ways to check for this) and we will continue to introduce measures to make it ever more hard.

Using Python and the Mailinator API, Mr. Cooper created a system that would send out invites to random Mailinator disposable email addresses, extract the verification code he received from OnePlus, verify it, and get a new referral.

NB. Ausdroid does not condone hacking or any other form of illegal online activities, we are reporting this as news relating to an upcoming device release. Needless to say, the OnePlus 2 can be purchased in the company’s homeland directly from the official OnePlus website, without having to queue up for an invite. If you choose to test these methods of jumping the Oneplus queue, it is at your own risk.
