Stuck without an invite for the OnePlus X? Well, not anymore. If you've been planning to buy the OnePlus X, go to the product page after midnight and you'll notice that the mandatory requirement of an invite has been lifted.

OnePlus told HT that the invite system has been crucial to letting them scale the operations of the company. But now, they're ready to make the OnePlus X invite-free forever.

So, all the phones from the OnePlus stable can now be bought without an invite.

The ₹16,999 phone is available on Amazon in two colours -- onyx and champagne. The phone has a 5-inch AMOLED HD screen that reproduces beautiful blacks and all metal-glass build that makes something you won't mind holding on to.

It runs Android Lollipop-based Oxygen OS which offers lots of options to customise the user interface.

However, one place this phone suffers in is the lack of a fingerprint scanner and battery life.
