from the looks of their website it is just a forked jolla but there is cyanogen mod listed as OS...
From the stats and the price-tags, this could hit Samsung and HTC pretty hard (Apple is no competition at the moment)

- GPU Adreno 330, 578MHz

A fork? In what sense? At a first glance, OnePlus doesn't seem to have anything in common with Jolla.

Even the current jolla feels big in the hand. The main point of owning a jolla is the OS. Of course since this runs CM it should be easy to get it to run jolla.

chemist ( 2014-04-23 22:44:54 +0200 )editno competition to the s* we get ;) Another bloated 12hour-3100mAh drainer with no real innovation OS wise and max. 2years updates if any... But thanks for the heads up, you are right, it looks forked design wise.
