Yeah, superb reviews and much promising camera giving great results in low lights as well.
For the brand review, I own OnePlus X[^] and its so much satisfactory experience after moving from iPhone after 5 years.
Except battery, overall third time its great package having nothing left for improvement.
I would suggest to go for it. 
You can have all the tools in the world but if you don't genuinely believe in yourself, it's useless.

Well, quite!
Quote: Cleethorpes MP Martin Vickers a strong Leave campaigner said: "It is a very clear and decisive result from the people of North East Lincolnshire . Membership of the EU has not served this area well. which saw the decline of the fishing industry and the EU has not done much to replace it."

That is a Little bit early. At this Moment it is "only" that UK People have voted for the Referendum to leave the EU. They are still member and I think they are still member for more than one year from now

This isnt an anti Europe vote, its an anti Eurocrat/Brussels bureaucracy vote, so dont take it personally.

I have very mixed up feelings about all that.
First, I am glad UK is out, because to me, they have never really been in, and having someone not wanting to play by the rules in a team isn't good in any way.
See my views here : [^]
This will however be more tough a time than the "Leave" side thinks : it is always more difficult to support a negative vote when it eventually turn out negative - protesting for the mere sake of protesting is always easier. I am very eager to know how they will handle the future.
On the other side, this will now be open doors for all the monkeys in France advocating for a leave, the pattern being "Look, UK has done it, so this is not it is possible", and this is already pissing me off before it ever started.
And while Pete and you argue the contrary, this is definitely and clearly an anti-Europe vote, by a majority of UK people : The ones interviewed this morning on the radio clearly said that UK is better off alone. I am fine with that, let's show what you (the interviewed people) can do "alone", but let me grab my popcorn first.

100% true.

OK. We don't feel 'European'. We don't identify as European. Some of us see ourselves as English, some see ourselves as Scottish, a few of us see ourselves as British. Not many see ourselves as European.
A lot of us feel closer to our American cousins than we do to Europeans. If we felt the EU was like the United States we would be behind it. But it isn't. It's an un-easy German-French alliance over the rest of Europe. It could be better - but it isn't. Some of those reasons are Britains fault - we have never had our heart in it like you said. Some our Frances fault - you will always hold Germany with suspicion - some are Germanys fault, it has appointed itself as the leader which was always going to be dodgy giving it's history.

This is where I want to make my point. It wasn't ant-europe, it was anti-EU in it's current form. We are not a racist country, in fact we are one of the most tolerant. If the EU hadn't become the monster it has become - we would have stayed in. The main reason I think we voted out is that the last general election a lot of people voted for the Nationalist UKIP. To appease this Cameron gave us a referendum. He went to the EU asking for reform - he told them the Brits might leave if they didnt. The EU wasnt interested, they wanted to stay how they were. Look what they did to Greece. Look what they did to Italy. Forced them to sack their PM and replace him with an ex-Goldman Sachs banker.
Finally - Please forgive me for posting to you on a Friday night when I'm pissed. I feel like I've made my point but I know when I read this back tomorrow it's just gonna be a load of unintelligable sh*t

I agree 100% and will go further: The EU is a French-German models designed to avert war between those two countries and is no longer relevant in today's world.
Drunk or not, you certainly make more sense than a Eurocrat!

You are utterly wrong. 'Better off alone' means not part of the EU super state that it is becoming. It does not mean 'not part of Europe'. How many times does the UK have to save continental Europe from itself to prove that?
You talk of French dissatisfaction with the EU, you are not the only ones, many EU countries are close to calling a referendum on membership. Britain has lead the way and the others will follow.
The EU is a model based on early 20th century events and is no longer relevant to today. The big mistake the Eurocrats made not allowing the EU to adapt and change. It will suffer because of that, it already is, the UK leaving has put immense strain on the EU. It must eventually adapt or die, anyone can see that.

In light of the Brexit vote and living in the South in the U.S., it will be interesting to see if the secescionists here start a new campaign.. this time via a referendum.

Wait until the Scottish Referendum Part II later this year, so you have something you can point at and say "see?" 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

For Scotland is a breakaway from Great Britian only interesting, when the oil price is high. So dont be so optimistic. Not everybody is profiting from EU. Someone got to pay the bills for the bankster and EU-politicans...

I was thinking that, too.. E.U. passport to enter Scotland, but then what to enter England from Scotland?

A certain group in Texas has been trying to convince everyone else in the state to secede from the union. The funny part is that all of the states are indeed sovereign countries, but everyone seems to have forgotten that.

Oh, well, if there's a Law that says a State can't then that's it. End of discussion.
After all, Laws are Unbreakable.
Or I am thinking of Bruce Willis? I get the two confused sometimes.

Ok: so how could it happen? Would Gubberner Brown just declare that Kalifornia has seceded and that's it? Whilst all things are possible, some are more possible than others - your sarcasm is misplaced (though amusing).

Brown? Heck no. Wrong persuasion of politician. :p
Not gonna happen any time soon. It would take a lot bigger and more egregious effort at homogenization of the States to really get to the point of doing something other than grumbling.

Was juts an example: I'm sure the Kalifornia commissar would not be up for secession.
