How did you manage to get it?Yea ... Just had an invite from oneplus directly .
Yes, a reskinned version of 5.1.Are these an Android os then or what?
I expect it's just a very elite kind of phone that is not able to be mass produced, so you need an invite as a way of controlling sales. I could be wrong.Do we all get one for free now if we ask @perry081064 for an invite, or is it some pyramid type scheme thing?

pocket-lint.com said:Sticking to its strategy of offering a flagship-like handset with premium materials and hardware at an affordable price, OnePlus has announced the OnePlus X will start at £199 in the UK. But it's not going to be easy to get your hands on the phone.
The Chinese mobile startup plans to initially sell the new phone through its infamous online invite system. In other words, you will need to sign up for and then recieve an invite from OnePlus in order to buy this beauty anytime soon. OnePlus relied on this very same method for selling its original OnePlus phone and the OnePlus 2, which released a few months ago.
The company insists that its frustrating invite system isn't about creating hype but rather managing its inventory, keeping risk low, and ensuring it doesn't make more smartphones than it can sell. Whatever the reason may be, the result is: you must pay close attention to OnePlus' every move over the coming months in order to be among the first to get the OnePlus X.
