The OnePlus X rumors started around the release of the OnePlus 2. We did't really know what to expect. Some believed OnePlus was going to give us a step up from the OnePlus 2 because many were disappointed the OP2 left out some features like NFC. Others had a hunch it would be a budget friendly device and were correct.OnePlus X packs some nice specs for the monetary value it holds. It comes with Android 5.1, which is a good OS to be running. It's not Android 6.0 Marshmallow, but that might come sooner than we know. Not too mention more than likely can unlock the bootloader enabling the user to install custom roms and mods.One of the interesting features about the OnePlus X is that it supports SD cards up to 128GBs! It's odd that they decided to include this in the X and not the 2. Regardless it is a welcomed feature because the phone only comes with 16GBs of internal storage.Fortunately, GearBest is a one-stop-shop and you can buy a Samsung micro sd card for a really good price. For a 64GB card it is only $23.84. There are other cards and sizes for a little less, but 64GBs is a nice sweet sweet spot for having a good amount of storage.So if you are in a hurry to get a new phone, don't want to spend a ton of money on a new phone, or looking for a great Christmas gift this year; you can order one of the latest smartphones. Mind this phone will only work on GSM networks like T-Mobile or AT&T.Let us know in the comments if you decide to pick up a new OnePlus X and while you're at GearBest.com check out the rest of the page because they actually offer a variety of phones.
