The OnePlus X is the company’s first attempt at a mid-range smartphone, having had great success with the ‘flagship killing’ OnePlus One and Two. At just £199 it appears to be good value for money, and the critics seemingly agree. Here’s what the experts make of the device.

“This is an uncomplicated phone with a simple premise: good looks and great value for money.”
Reviewer: Aaron Souppouris
“OnePlus’ motto is “Never Settle.” But I can’t see a reality in which you buy the OnePlus X and you’re not settling. “
Reviewer: Chris Martin
“The OnePlus X is the best value smartphone of the year. We love the premium design in a smaller form factor to the firm’s other phones. “
Reviewer: Joshua Vergara
“It is certainly not without its flaws, and may not be future proof, but for now, the OnePlus X is one of the best bang for your buck smartphones of the year.”
Reviewer: James Peckham
“OnePlus have just done it for a third time and created a good phone for those on a budget. It doesn’t have as many fancy features as the OnePlus 2, but for the price it’s an impressive set up.”
Reviewer: Samuel Gibbs
“The OnePlus X is very good value. It’s well built, great-feeling and looks like a premium device, not one costing £200.”
Reviewer: Andrew Williams
“This is absolutely the most impressive sub-£200 phone you can get in terms of how it feels in your mitts.”
