OnePlus has been promoting its upcoming flagship phone, the OnePlus 2 in very odd ways.
It has been revealing one technical specification of the device every week in its bid to create #Hype, a hashtag it somewhat proudly uses across social networks.
But the company’s latest marketing move is just plain stupid. OnePlus has uploaded a fan video, featuring Christian (aka DRCH), who is one of it’s “Superfans” and Forum Moderators. The video has the title, “OnePlus Fan Reveals His Favorite OnePlus 2 Features”.
But thats where it fails miserably. Apparently, the company’s marketing team thought it would be cool to *BEEEP* all the parts where the fan talks about the device’s cool specifications. And not surprisingly the video has garnered twice the number of “dislikes” than people who oddly “liked” the video.
Watch the Epic Fail video here (but don’t blame me if it annoys you)

Of course, the majority of the comments at the YouTube page, have slammed the video as well.
