Today’s big news is the
launch of the
OnePlus X, we already announced the specifications of the budget phone here, now we have pricing info and a great hands on
video to check out.
So first of all the
OnePlus X is going to cost $249 in the U.S and 250 Euros in Europe which makes it affordable when compared to larger brand
phones of the same specs and also more affordable than the ZUK Z1 with the same processor. Of course the OnePlus X is a device that will attract a different clientele than the ZUK though and has a much more impressive design and build quality to match.
The all glass phone has 2.5D curves on the front Gorilla Glass 3 panel and the ceramic rear panel, and to keep those glossy surfaces safe a number of protectors will be offered with carbon or wood finishes. The body itself will be available in Black or While with either silver or gold metal finish.
At 6.9mm the OnePlus X is thin and has an machined alloy chassis around the body. The chassis has the 3 position notification switch like the OnePlus 2, but a standard USB seems to have been employed.
The international version of the OnePlus X will come with Oxygen OS which OnePlus have had plenty of time to get running smoothly on the Snapdragon 801 and 3GB RAM as it’s the same hardware as the OnePlus One. The Android based system will show on a smaller 5-inch 1920 x 1080 AMOLED display however which will offer deep black colours that can also help improve battery life should you choose to run a black wallpaper.
Speaking of the battery it is a 2525mAh battery built in to the phone. This might sound small, but considering the hardware and the size and resolution of the screen it’s actually more than adequate.
A micro SD card means that you can insert 128GB cards in to the phone, which is necessary due to the 16GB of internal storage, however using a SD means you can only use one of the 2 nano SIM slots.
