Thanks I bought this, it came yesterday, phone is a little bulky for me, but it seems excellent value at that price.

Just make sure that if you go for that then the 4G frequencies are compatible with the network that you are on.

What he actually means is this (taken from a review site):

One of the most
important issues
with the OnePlus
One for UK
buyers is that it
does not support
band 20 4G. This
is the band over
which several of
the UK’s
networks
transmit their 4G
signal. And this
means you
cannot get 4G
mobile internet
with them.
The networks that
use band 20
include O2,
Vodafone, Tesco
Mobile,
LycaMobile and
GiffGaff. Yes, you
cannot get 4G on
a OnePlus One
with any of these
networks in the
UK.
That only really
leavesEE and
Three,* and as
Three uses band
20 for part of its
signal, 4G speed
may not be too
hot on Three.
These networks
use Band 3 (EE/
Three) and band
7 (EE), which are
supported by the
OnePlus One.
Other 4G bands
supported by the
OnePlus One
include band 4
and band 17. But
they’re not of
much use here.
Once again there
are no real
solutions. This is
a hardware issue,
not something
that can be
solved with a
software patch.
