We already know a lot about the OnePlus 2 such as the CPU, RAM, Battery etc. However, there were still some questions unanswered like the storage, built quality and the camera as well. Now, it looks like MKBHD has revealed a few details about the OnePlus 2’s camera.

Yesterday, Mr. Brownlee revealed that OnePlus 2 will come a 13MP sensor at the back with Laser Autofocus. If you remember, this tech was first debuted by LG on its G3 flagship and improves focus times to a great extent.

According to the camera review, OnePlus does have a decent rear camera. The 13MP manages to capture clear and sharp pictures with almost accurate color reproduction. The focus times in particular were impressive, thanks to the laser autofocus tech. There are a number of camera options such as Clear-Shot, HDR and Beauty mode. As for the video shooting, the phone is capable of recording videos in up to 4K resolution. You can even take slo-mo videos at 720p.

Overall, it looks like OnePlus 2 will have a capable rear camera. Nothing out of the ordinary, but good enough to satisfy your camera needs.

This kind of solves the mystery of the OnePlus 2 camera, but there are still things we don’t know like the built quality and material, storage etc. Hopefully, we will get more info before the launch event on July 27.

Meanwhile, you can check out all that we know about the OnePlus 2 from this article.

If it was a year back, sometime before April 2014, nobody would have ever heard of the name OnePlus. In fact, at that time if someone told you that OnePlus was the name of a manufacturer, there was a very good chance that you would have laughed at the name. Now, fast forward 1 year and OnePlus is the name that represents true value for money.

Before 2014, if you had to purchase a high end device (3GB RAM), you would have had to shell out no less than $500. This was a time when even Xiaomi was just opening up, expanding its lineup with cheaper and better models. And it was precisely at this point when OnePlus made the debut with its OnePlus One flagship. The specs represented a high-end flagship while the pricing was that of a mid-range. In every sense, the “One” was a flagship killer.

So, its no surprise that everyone is so fond of the company. All of us are excited to see what kind of features will be present on the new OnePlus Two flagship and the company has done a pretty good job of keeping us fans satisfied with timely teasers and updates.

In fact, we already know a lot about the OnePlus Two flagship. Probably more than most other smartphones that haven’t been released. And since a majority of these info comes directly from the company, we can be sure that they will end up on the new generation flagship.

Anyways, since we already know a lot about the OnePlus Two, I thought it would be best to put them all together in one place. So, down below are the 10 important things we already know about the OnePlus Two flagship.

1. CPU:

OnePlus recently confirmed that the new OnePlus flagship will come with Snapdragon 810 v2.1 (third generation) chipset. I am sure many would be disappointed with this decision, considering the overheating problem associated with the chip, but the company has promised that the new version of the chipset will be cooler than ever (probably a bit underclocked too, at least thats what we think). So, at this moment we are hoping that the promise is fulfilled.

2. RAM:

Well, 3GB RAM was the flagship standard about a year back and OnePlus One had 3GB of RAM. Now, its time to take things to a whole new level with 4GB of LPDDR4 RAM. The company has confirmed that OnePlus Two will join the likes of limited smartphones to feature 4GB of internal RAM.

3. SIZE:

We are not sure if we will see the same 5.5-inch 1080p display on the OnePlus Two, however, what we know is that the overall size of the handset will be smaller than the OnePlus One. So, those who complained that the device couldn’t fit comfortably in their hands, now have something to cheer about.

4. BATTERY:

One of the important features of a smartphone these days, the battery is reportedly bigger on the new handset. The company confirms that OnePlus Two will come with a 3300mAh greater than the 3100mAh capacity on the ‘One’.

5. Fingerprint Sensor:

One of the new features on the OnePlus Two will be the physical Fingerprint Sensor. The move isn’t surprising, given that all major flagships come with fingeprint recognition these days. The company also notes that this will be one of the fastest fingerprint sensors on a smartphone (even faster than touch ID).

6. USB Type-C:

Another welcome addition to the OnePlus Two is the new USB Type-C port. The LeTV series came with these reversible and more powerful ports and its no surprise to see them end up on the next-gen flagship. However, we don’t know whether it will be USB 2.0, 3.0 or even 3.1 like the ZUK Z1.

7. ROM:

Instead of the CyanogenMod ROM that came with the OnePlus One, the company will be debuting with the OnePlus Two its own Oxygen OS (HydrogenOS in China). This is a forked version of the AOSP ROM and is reportedly tailor made to work smoothly with Snapdragon v2.1.

8. Three Different Versions For Different Regions:

The company has confirmed three different versions of the OnePlus Two, each aimed at a specific region namely China, North America and Europe/ Asia. OnePlus has also confirmed the supported bands and they are as follow:

US

GSM: 850, 900, 1800, 1900MHz

WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/4/5/8

FDD-LTE: Bands:  1/2/4/5/7/8/12/17

Europe

GSM: 850, 900, 1800, 1900MHz

WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/5/8

FDD-LTE: Bands: 1/3/5/7/8/20

9. Swappable Back Covers:

OnePlus Two will come with at least five different swap covers which will be available at launch. We expect the popular ones like Bamboo and other wooden covers to be available for the new device.

10. Price:

Finally, OnePlus CEO has confirmed that the OnePlus Two will be priced below $450. While its still slightly higher than the original OnePlus One model, given the upgraded specs, if the price is indeed below $450, the phone still offers more value for money.

FYI, the invite system will be back for the OnePlus Two also. But the company has promised that it will be better than before.

As you can see, we know a lot about the upcoming OnePlus Two flagship. But there’s still a lot of question marks in areas like storage (whether expandable), camera, screen resolution and even build quality (which will most likely be metal!).

We expect more information directly from the company in the company before the official launch on July 27, so stay tuned.

Fans finally have something to be excited about, as the latest report from Bloomberg states that OnePlus could unveil not one but two new smartphones later this year. This contradicts previous reports which said that the OnePlus Two flagship could be potentially delayed to 2016.

According to the report, OnePlus Two along with a budget friendly smartphone will be unveiled by the company around Q3 2014. Earlier, OnePlus CEO had hinted that the new flagship could see the light of the day by September and looks like this report supports this time frame.

However, this is the first time we are hearing about a cheaper One Plus device as all previous rumors suggested otherwise. In the early days of 2015, rumors said that the company could be focusing on a premium smartphone for launch alongside the OnePlus Two. But this report states otherwise.

Also, OnePlus Two is said to bring a lot of new upgrades such as a 5.5-inch 2K display, Snapdragon 810 and 4GB RAM. However, with such hardware, its practically impossible to maintain the $380 price tag. So, the company may have to increase its base price this year.

Anyways, we are sure fans must be excited to hear that they will see two OnePlus smartphones this year, that too one within the reach of budget buyers. Given that the report is said to come from the OnePlus office, it may actually turn out to be true.

If this is the case, expect a lot more information about the two new handsets, pretty soon.

So, what do you think, will the new flagship be as successful as the OnePlus One?
