According to the Indian media Economictimes the OnePlus Mini would cost less than the OnePlus 2 with a sale price of between 160 and 270 euros. OnePlus he is going to address the market entry or midrange?

 We know that since this summer OnePlus plans to release two new smartphones this year: OnePlus 2 that is already known and an OnePlus Mini. As the name suggests, it would be a “mini” version of the flagship killer OnePlus. We have already seen some benchmarks to tour the web in recent weeks. The data sheet is thus slightly revised downwards, especially with MediaTek MT6795T (Helio X10), even if the rest does not change much with a Full HD display, 2GB of RAM, 32GB of flash memory or a sensor picture of 13 megapixels. Mini forces, is expected to find a smaller screen than the 5.5 inches of OnePlus 2. Reduction components allow OnePlus to save some money and sell it OnePlus Mini at a lower price.

 Thus, the rumors put forward a (wide) range between 160 and 270 euros. This price does not really surprise us, since it is 70 euros less than the OnePlus 2. However, a price approaching 150 euros seems difficult to imagine, even if Xiaomi offers its Redmi Note 2, equipped with features similar techniques around 170 euros. If this is the case, the OnePlus Mini would be a real threat for the entry level devices. Moreover, even at 270 euros, the OnePlus Mini would still be competitive with other manufacturers offer if one believes the data sheets on the run on the canvas.

 The OnePlus Mini should be available by the end of the year and specifically for the Indian Diwali festival to be held on 11 November. The OnePlus Mini should also be geared more for the Indian market. A country that had last year to 7% of OnePlus sales. We must therefore wait a little before his official presentation by the brand.

CEO OnePlus has repeatedly confirmed that a second smartphone would be launched before the end of the year. We then immediately thought of an OnePlus 2 Mini, or at least to a model offering more reasonable size than its big brother of 5.5 inches. For now, we still do not know the device’s size, however, its characteristics have just been partially revealed by the tool from benchmark AnTuTu.

 Rather than offering a low-end version of its latest flagship, the company could launch a second smartphone rather interesting, if the characteristics set forth by this benchmark prove accurate. The program includes a definition screen Full HD 1080p which we do not yet know the format, a photo sensor 13 megapixels, 32 GB of storage and a 64 Bit octo core processor MediaTek MT6795T supported by 2GB of RAM.

 A processor designed for high-end devices, found elsewhere in the HTC One M9+ and allowing this potential OnePlus 2 Mini, here referenced under model number A2301, getting a score of 54311 points the AnTuTu benchmark tool. A score not necessarily spectacular but is more akin to that of a luxury than a mid-range device and outperforms flagship stores last year as Xiaomi Mi4, the Galaxy Note 4 and the HTC One M8

 Earlier this week, the first reports of alleged OnePlus 2 Mini surfaced. Today it is the turn of its technical characteristics that are far from cheap. Its positioning is somewhat reminiscent of that of Sony with its “Compact” although in the case of OnePlus the “Mini” version does not propose exactly the same specifications as the flagship model. On the other hand, it avoids the Snapdragon 810. In addition, knowing the habits of society, the price could also be interesting.

A reduced version of OnePlus 2 elite smartphone was rendered and published by an Asian source. The device gets smaller to grace who likes the design and functions of the current flagship Chinese company, but has setbacks to the use of phablets, as the same screen is 5.5 inches. The visual phone designed graphically is similar to that seen in previous occasions in the Eastern products manufacturer, however, just as there are old aspects, there are interesting novelties present in the housing. Generally speaking, it seems that the team involved in the development of electronic seeks to innovate and at the same time keep intact the DNA created by the company in these years of foundation.

 There are few details to be absorbed on the front of the structure, but it is noted minimalism that would have been implemented by OnePlus, absent physical buttons to keep the user’s attention only in the model display. Apparently, they are two separate speakers, one on top and one at the bottom of the face of your body. The edges, although these are preliminary renderings, seem to be made of metal, protecting internal parts from sudden impacts (and possible), and providing an experience awarded to consumers, putting an end to the use of polycarbonate in the outdoor construction of the Asian company gadgets. But the most interesting aspects are in the back.

 Looking, then, the rear panel, there are three factors that are worth comment: a dual system of main camera, dual-LED for flash and a fingerprint reader. The two photo sensors would bring great options to customers who choose to purchase a unit as possible OnePlus Mini, how to focus quickly on an object and even change the focus direction after the catch, it all lit quite capable so the rear pair of LEDs. Finally, the biometric sensor, which is not new in the manufacturer devices, located in the home OnePlus two button accept just a touch of the user to free access to the interface, make payments and other activities.

 In addition to the brand new flagship OnePlus 2, the young OnePlus Chinese Company has promised the formal presentation of another device in this year of 2015. As we have disregarded the launch of an OnePlus 3 or OnePlus 2S, it appears that a variant with reduced dimensions and price would faces until December. Still, it’s worth remembering that it does not yet confirmed the name ‘Mini’ is used, much less the technical characteristics of the new smartphone, so it would be wise to wait until she decides to share more details about the assault with his fans and enthusiasts. Until then, consider all this as just another rumor of the mobile phone market.
