Usually when you buy a new smartphone, you pay your mobile network an amount up front, with the rest of the price covered with monthly payments for another 24 months. While this system, which gives carriers a lot of leverage as they tie customers up with long term contracts, isn’t exactly the best for mobile users, the market isn’t exactly coming up with alternatives, save for Google’s Nexus 4 and 5, which is offered at a relatively low unlocked price you can pay in full up front. Recently, however, Google was joined in providing this service by an ambitious tech startup based in Shenzen, China – a company named OnePlus.
