Photo Mania 2015 - Be the first to experience the OnePlus 2! Jun 9, 2015

Cat H, Jun 9, 2015 :

​

Some people have nunchuck skills, some people having computer hacking skills, and some people have photography skills. Our community is, in fact, full of amazing photographers, and just like last year's Photo Mania, we want to see what you can do! How do you capture that perfect shot with your smartphone?

The real test is the no edits test. To enter this contest, simply send your unedited and no-filter smartphone photos to Instagram and tag our account, @oneplustech. In your caption, tell us how you achieved your shot, from lighting to settings. The OnePlus team will choose our top 10 based on popularity (likes on Instagram) and technical ability, and it’s up to you to vote on the final winner!

Now for the prize. We are going to give one winner the chance to be one of the first three fans (other contest here) to experience the OnePlus 2 -- right in our own headquarters. That includes an all-expenses-paid trip to Hong Kong! You’ll also get to play a pivotal role in a secret project we have planned for the OnePlus 2 launch. OnePlus has always been about the collaboration between us and our fans, and we want you guys to be an integral part of our next gigantic step.

Submit your entry with this form. The contest closes on June 15 at 12 am ET!
