In 2014, one underdog has turned out to be one of the best flagship phones available today. With the competitive specs of OnePlus One phone, PC Advisor already declared that this model can race with the popular devices Samsung Galaxy S5, Sony Xperia Z2, LG G3, and HTC One M8.
Because of its impressive features and functionality, mobile company OnePlus is now eyeing on the release of its successor OnePlus Two.To help you builkd your expectations on this newest device, here's a recap of OnePlus One Phone's specs:
Design and Display
Undoubtedly one of the biggest phones in the market (coming in 152.9x75.9x8.9mm), The OnePlus One still has a minimalist appearance with its chrome plate around the rear camera, a monolithic black front screen, and the logos on the back cover. The front screen features capacitive keys which can be deactivated in order to use the on-screen navigation bar.
It has a 5.5-inch LTPS LCD display rendering a resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels, with a density of 401 ppi.
Hardware and OS
If you're looking for a faster smartphone, OnePlus One's hardware does not disappoint: It is powered by a 2.5 GHz quad core krait 400 processor and Qualcomm MSM8974AC Snapdragon 801 chipset. It comes with 3GB of RAM ideal for gaming.
You can choose between its 16 and 64GB variants, but it doesn't have a MicroSD slot for additional memory.
The device also runs on the Android 4.4 KitKat OS based on the Android platform called CyanogenMod 11S, so you can tweak the interface including its icons, general UI look and feel, fonts, etc.
Features
To help you conserve more energy, OnePlus One has the ability to fine-tune the auto brightness levels. However, it lacks a dedicated battery-saving mode so we recommend adjusting the backlight duration to 30 seconds. For users who have enabled the developer mode, try setting the phone into a special power save mode by selecting Factory Data Reset under Settings-Backup & Reset..
Battery
With its 3100 mAh battery life, one can consider OnePlus One as a remarkably powerful smartphone.
Camera
The OnePlus One sports a 13 MP camera with Sony Exmor RS sensor, coupled with a 6 part optic system and dual-tone LED perfect for taking selfies. It also has 5 MP secondary camera set an 80-degree angle
