OnePlus 2 preview specifications – Snapdragon 810 flagship killer
The OnePlus 1 from 2014 made a huge splash in terms of hype. It was a very powerful phone set to topple the flagships. On top of the big specs, they had a unique method of selling the mobile — it could only initially be purchased through invites. It’s a marketing strategy designed to promote intrigue due to exclusivity.
Interestingly there were a couple of decent copycats that aped the OnePlus 1 that were actually released prior the real deal.
Now that they’ve got a bit of a name for themselves, this time around they’re doing things a bit differently, with the OnePlus 2 being available without any invites. I think this is a smart decision.
The specs of the OnePlus 2, as a flagship killer should rightfully carry, are top-notch.

The SoC used in the OnePlus Two is Qualcomm’s top SoC. There are two different versions of the OnePlus 2. One is a 3GB/16GB version which should be enough for most users. The other is 4GB/64GB and is aimed at those requiring a large amount of storage.
We’re beginning to see some very hi-res screens available, as high as 1440*2560 and OnePlus has opted to stick with FHD 1080*1920. They’re open about their reason for doing so, which is that resolutions beyond 400PPI can’t be distinguished from 400 (some would say even lower), and especially when viewed from a typical distance of 6-12″ (15-30cm). The benefit? Increased performance, better battery life, less strain on the system, and a lower price tag.
Also notably the camera has optical image stabilization. This is a nice bump up for picture taking, as it cancels out the small movements which often cause blur in photos.
