Its a new phone that has been released .They cannot be bought in shops and you need an invite to purchase one.

It looks to be a class phone and its is nearly half the price of similar phones from the big companies that have similar spec's.

anyone buy one ?

How does the invite to buy one work?

you get an invite from the company or by entering competitions on the site.
I think anyone who buys the phone then get a few invites to pass on.

Looks a nice phone, the thing that would put me off is the lack of a home button, phones without them such as the HTC one are a pain in the hole.

Aliexpress sell these phones too with no need for an invite.

agreed ,a phone with a home button is a much better job.
The one's on Aliexpress can get done for tax/customs and I was told they are a little different ,they use different LTE bands and a different operating system.

bought a HTC xe on aliexpress, no customs as it was marked gift $30, can be unlucky though. Think customs are copping on that a lot of electronics coming in are actually cheap stuff plus they've bigger fish to fry.

its an odd one alright,there are people on the website basically begging to be given an invite to part with €300+.
Did Apple do similar a few years back when they launched the first Iphone ?

I got one of these a few weeks back and its a brilliant phone especially with the price.It cost me €355 delivered and not being tied to a contract is a big bonus.
I might have some invites to pass on if anyone is interested let me know.
