OnePlus may have increased manufacturing capacity this year in preparation for the launch of its successor to the OnePlus One, the OnePlus 2, but that doesn't mean it's completely ironed out its processes: North American customers will have to wait a little longer to receive their phones.
In a post to its community forums, a staff member of OnePlus today said that "due to production schedules," shipments to the United States and Canada will begin 2-3 weeks after shipments to Europe. We're not sure exactly what this means and why it's the case, but hiccups in the manufacturing process happen regularly before the release of new products, even to large companies like Samsung and Apple.
OnePlus says that customers in North America will still be able to place their orders starting tomorrow, August 11th, though. That's if you even have an invite to buy one, which you'll need. The waitlist to get yourself an invite if you weren't an early adopter of the OnePlus One is 3 million people strong, however, so these shipment delays shouldn't even impact you if aren't fortunate enough to have one. Sans-invite purchases will open up at some point weeks or months after the phone goes on sale tomorrow.
