Introduction and design
The tricky second album. That’s probably the best way to describe the OnePlus 2. After the surprise success of the OnePlus One there were big expectations for its successor, so has the fledgling Chinese brand delivered?
OnePlus has dubbed its new phone ‘the 2016 Flagship Killer’, a claim that’s more than a little far-fetched. So how about a more grounded claim of ‘the 2015 Flapship Killer’? If OnePlus bangs that drum instead, then it might just be onto something again.
The price tag on the OnePlus 2 remains around half that of the phones it’s aiming to rival – the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S6, iPhone 6S and HTC One M9 – with the 16GB model coming in at £239 ($329) while the 64GB will set you back £289 ($389).
At that price it also has the Moto X Style for company, which slides in between the OnePlus Two and top-tier handsets from the major manufacturers. Though the OnePlus 2 is still pricier than the new mid-range OnePlus X.
A quick flick through the spec sheet and you’ll likely be impressed with the bang for your buck offered by the OnePlus 2.
