So far we know that the device will come with an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor and 4GB of RAM.
Battery and Connectivity
We also know that the handset will come with a 3300 mAh battery, dual SIM card slots, and a USB Type-C connector, plus a fingerprint scanner. The inclusion of a USB Type-C connector is particularly noteworthy as it represents a shift towards more modern and versatile connectivity options, allowing for faster data transfer and charging capabilities. The dual SIM card slots will be a boon for users who need to manage multiple phone numbers, whether for business and personal use or for traveling between different countries.
High-End Specifications and Features
The device is expected to come with a number of other high-end specifications. OnePlus has always been known for packing flagship features into their devices at a competitive price point, and the OnePlus 2 is no exception.

The term “flagship killer” suggests that the OnePlus 2 will offer features and performance that rival or surpass those of other flagship smartphones on the market, such as the Samsung Galaxy S6 or the iPhone 6. This is a bold claim, but OnePlus has a history of delivering high-quality devices that punch above their weight.
In addition to the powerful Snapdragon 810 processor and ample 4GB of RAM, the OnePlus 2 is rumored to feature a high-resolution display, possibly Quad HD, which would provide stunning visuals for media consumption and gaming. The camera setup is also expected to be top-notch, with advanced features like optical image stabilization and 4K video recording.
Another exciting aspect of the OnePlus 2 is its software. The device will likely run on OxygenOS, OnePlus’s custom Android-based operating system. OxygenOS is known for its clean, bloatware-free experience and offers a range of customization options that allow users to tailor the device to their preferences.
We are looking forward to finding out the rest of the specifications on the new OnePlus 2 smartphone. The anticipation is building, and tech enthusiasts around the world are eager to see if the OnePlus 2 lives up to the hype. We will have more details when it is made official later this month.
