Looking to secure an older flagship at a great deal? At Best Buy, you can currently pick up the HTC One M7 for just $149.99 off-contract… so long as you’re with AT&T or Verizon, and you don’t mind blue. Other colors on other carriers are available at just $50 extra.

The OnePlus One was undoubtedly one of the biggest smartphones of 2014. While it may not have sold anywhere near as many units as the Galaxy S5 or the iPhone 6, it still generated more hype and excitement than many of its rivals — thanks mostly to its excellent specifications and tiny price tag.

But thanks to OnePlus’s controversial invite system, the One hasn’t been easy to get hold of. If you’re still trying to get yours, maybe we can help; Cult of Android Deals is giving you the chance to win a brand new OnePlus One, but the giveaway ends today, so this is your last chance to enter.

OnePlus is offering One users an alternative to Android’s default keyboard by baking SwiftKey, one of the most popular third-party keyboards available, into its next over-the-air software update. The company is also promising improved sound quality thanks to MaxxAudio integration.

Cyanogen Inc. has confirmed that its new CyanogenMod 12S update — based on Lollipop — for the OnePlus One has entered quality assurance testing ahead of its public release. Once the software is tested and certified by third-party partners, it will be making its way to handsets over-the-air.

Based on the seemingly cryptic teaser, we expected the OnePlus “back to basics” announcement to involve something made of metal, but we were wrong. Instead, the company today announced its own OxygenOS ROM for the One, which will almost certainly replace CyanogenMod later on.
