What's the number one reason why this phone rocks(besides price)? And if so give an explanation

Also no bloatware and unwanted apps from carriers and the updates do not have to go through the carrier.
Quite simply, if not for the price, I wouldn't have bought one.
Not even CM11S is compelling enough a reason. I'm not the greatest CM fan and given the slow updates and missed fixes on 11S I'd take a nightly instead.
Would you recommend it still or just wait for the new nexus
The x+1 won't have better specs then the OnePlus One. A Brazilian company leaked the specs. The one will have more memory, RAM, battery and storage. Same screen resolution. It'll be a moto x with a better battery, bigger/sharper screen and a better camera, same 13mp camera on the one. The note 4 will be nice spec wise though. My 2 cents: the note 4 could turn into Megatron for all I care, I would never choose Touchwiz over a smooth stock android experience

The most important things to me are the updates and how quickly the come, the overall experience(I need stock android or close to it because I am tired of all these skins), and I want something that will hold my interest over time...
Then wait for the Nexus.
As shown in the last CM11S OPO mess on 30O and 33 - they didn't fix the battery issue totally and the update was delayed as Google have to approve updates given Gapps are bundled.
Exactly, EXACTLY how I felt when I got this phone. It was this or nexus 5. I just couldn't get the nexus 5 when the specs don't compare. The storage alone, $350 for a 16gb nexus 5 and 64gb on the OnePlus one for the same $. For years I've rooted and rom'd to get updates before buying a new phone. Always impatient. I couldn't wait for the rumored nexus 6. But next to Google, I trust Cyanogenmod to get a stable android L build to the OnePlus One quicker than other manufacturers. They've been doing this for years and we have no carrier interference to slow up the OTA rollout when the time comes

Edit: I was wrong, it was almost a year ago they leaked the nexus 5

Aside from the official Cyanogen support, I was close to selling it but the recent updates has made the phone very stable.
The number one reason for me is the camera. It's one of the best phone camera I've used so far.
