OnePlus One accessories? (Who and what will they bring?)

[cgardnervt]

So the phone on paper looks great thus far! But has anyone heard or seen if anyone will be making a large amount of accessories for this phone? Cases, screen protectors and so on are an important thing to a lot of people. For my self I just want a good screen protector! Anyone else using this as a deal breaker? No flame wars just opinions!
Thanks

First of all, 1+ has already confirmed replacement backs. As to cases and screen protectors, you'll likely have to wait for official accessories. Most phones, especially ones with limited availability and demand, don't have third parties lining up to produce accessories. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm not holding my breath. May be easier to 3d print your own case rather than wait.

Hopefully with the replacement backs they will add wireless charging. That would be a big seller.

Don't bet on having much in terms of accessories due to the fact that only a small quantity or this device will be sold, so some accessory manufacturers may not even bother. Expect limited options

Honestly, the only thing I would want to buy would be a screen protector. Maybe a couple of the swap covers-especially if they release a black version without a texture.

Don't think that's happening, based on what I've heard. OnePlus indicated that they didn't see enough demand for Qi and so they haven't put time into it.

Rumor has it they are going to announce a bunch of accessories Tuesday.

I really need a belt clip. It sounds lame but I need it for running with the phone. I caught an interview with someone from OnePlus saying they weren't expecting 3rd party accessories so they seem to know that's a gap...

Lol you complain about having no belt clip and no one can get this phone

Wireless charging needs to be included in the phones as it is with the Nexus 5 in order to make it main stream.

When the extra cost is a very high amount for additional back with wireless charging ala Samsung then interest will be sparse.

I guess I'm more confident that the phone will come than the belt clip. I always get Sedio clips but they won't be supporting this phone unless it tells off like a rocket!
