As we head towards the latter part of July, the OnePlus One is still as elusive of a purchase as it was a month ago because of its invite-based purchasing system. Well, a few new invites are coming. As part of its Blizzard of Invites promotion, OnePlus will hand out 5,000 invites.

If you want in, the first thing you’ll need to do is login via email or Facebook. You will then see several listed actions, of which you will need to perform at least one. Actions include liking the OnePlus Facebook page, following OnePlus on Twitter and Instagram, or posting on the company’s forums. A grand total of 10 of the 5,000 winners will also receive a free Bamboo StyleSwap Cover when the cases go one sale at the end of August.

The contest ends on July 23, with winners contacted within three days of the end of the event. In addition, the contest is open only to those who have yet to receive invites, so those with invites looking to score more are out of luck.

Best OnePlus Open deals: Save $200+ on the foldable phone

YouTube Shorts and Instagram running simultenously on OnePlus Open held in hands.

When the first foldable phone came out, the original Samsung Galaxy Fold, which didn't even have a Z in the name yet, a lot of people wrote it off as a massive gimmick that nobody would care for, and the high price certainly didn't help. Instead, the Galaxy Fold ushered in the era of folding phones, with almost all the big brands trying to get into the game with resounding success since bigger screens mean more functionality and the folding part means they don't take up as much space. One of the latest brands to release a folding phone is OnePlus, and they've done a pretty good job with the OnePlus Open, giving you an excellent option if you don't necessarily want to go with Samsung and yet still get something with a solid ecosystem. Luckily, there are a lot of excellent deals you can take advantage of if you want to grab one, from direct discounts to trade-in offers, we've collected our favorites below.
