There will be two main competitors at a similar price point when October rolls around, it'll be the Nexus 6 and the Xiaomi Mi4. The Nexus 6, if it is priced at the same range as the Nexus 5, will likely debut at a $50-100 more than the Oneplus for 48GB less storage though with a Snapdragon 805 vs. 801 (which currently isn't benchmarked that far apart). The build quality on the Oneplus was way better than the Nexus 5... though the tradeoff there is the updates are slightly delayed going through Cyanogen.
Xiaomi is going to be speced identically except the camera is poor, autofocus problems and update issues due to MIUI.
The remaining flagships are all speced worse or similarly at double the price point and with 16GB of storage to start even at that.

You guys weren't kidding about DHL. Horrible communications. At 11:30am is was "delayed" at customs, despite me paying for the fees online. Then it shows up at 6pm. At 6:30 I get notification that it's out for delivery. What?
Anyway, this thing is awesome.

Well... at least you got your notification within the day. I got that it was out of delivery a couple of days later. It's like they rely on drivers to manually enter the information lol.
