(Current Nexus 5 user, fed up of its battery)
I'm basically looking for a hassle free experience with great battery life most of all! My ROM Flashing days are pretty much over, I want a consistent experience now.
I've used both phones for a few mins and here were my observations:
Oneplus One:
Overall, which phone would you suggest? As you can see, I prefer the Mi4's hardware but the Oneplus One's software.
I can't spend 22k on the 64gb version, so it's 19k for 16GB Oneplus One vs 20k for 16GB Mi4.

I've used both phones for a few mins and here were my observations:
Oneplus One:
- Seemed a bit too big. But everyone feels this way before upgrading screen sizes. Not sure though.
- Screen seemed a bit faded out and dull as compared to my Nexus 5.
- Hardware wise, it felt great but not better than the Mi4.
- I've only used it with 4.4.4. How's the Lollipop experience on this? Specifically, hows the battery on a Lollipop rom??
- Felt *really* good in my hand. It's also a 5 incher so it felt more natural to me.
- Looks a lot like an iPhone, but I don't mind that.
- Software seemed slick, although the slow transitions were frustrating.
- I think I'm gonna really miss stock lollipop. How is the software experience on this phone? Any chance of flashing plain old Lollipop?
