The back of the OnePlus X sports a fingerprint sensor along with a dual-camera, as well as dual speaker grills at the bottom. Going by the renders, it doesn’t look like the device will take any cue from the OnePlus 2. According to Technology Personified , the device may run on Snapdragon 615 (or its equivalent) and many also offer features like USB Type-C and a FHD screen. In conversation with USA Today , Pei had earlier stated that the new smartphone is scheduled to release by December. “There’s going to be a second phone this year, before the end of the year. Hopefully for Christmas,” he said in the interview. However, the young co-founder did not reveal any further details on the same. Commenting on the upcoming device, Pei had said, “When I saw the prototype for that phone I was like ‘holy s— that’s going to be my daily driver’ but then when the OnePlus 2 production version came out it’s also super nice, so its really hard to decide now what to use.”
