OnePlus, the Chinese manufacturing company is planning to unveil a new smartphone probably in the month of December this year. Karl Pei, the Co-founder of the company had hinted about the successor of OnePlus 2 earlier in the month of August. Now, the company had unveiled the truth that the new handset will not be a successor device for OnePlus 2 rather it is going to be an entirely new segment. However, he had not revealed much information about the  new OnePlus device. Only vague rumors have been spreading about the new OnePlus smartphone.

Now, Chinese website ‘Mobile-dad’ has leaked the renders of the new OnePlus smartphone. The two images that he had leaked claims that they are the renders of the new upcoming OnePlus smartphone. The website has wisely managed to place their palm on a pair of latest leaked images, that show a ‘Mini’, which is potentially regarded as the next smartphone by the Chinese company.

Expected Price

The new upcoming device is expected to be priced around $249 (Rs. 16,350) and is speculated to be released in the month of December this year. It is highly anticipated that the new OnePlus Mini will probably be a mid-range smartphone running on Snapdragon 615 (or its equivalent) by offering splendid features like USB Type-C and an FHD screen.

Leaked Renders of OnePlus Mini

Speculations regarding the upcoming smartphone are rife that the company is working on a mini model of the OnePlus 2, but yet there is no official information on this rumor. Here are the leaked renders of OnePlus Mini smartphone.

If the leaked images of the new OnePlus smartphone are believed to be true, then it would be the third OnePlus device which comes with a variant design different from the first two handsets. From the leaked images, it is clear that the phone would have round edges rather than the angular ones which were present on the existing OnePlus smartphones.

OnePlus Mini seems to resemble its predecessor OnePlus 2 in terms of its design, but the leaked renders show off that the device is having rounded edges and comes in a slim profile. The leaked images also show that the handset comes with an Apple Touch ID-like fingerprint scanner and a dual camera setup which is coupled with two LED lights. On the back of the device as in the image, it is freshly designed with a dual speaker at the bottom. Other features of the device include a set of machined grills which are designed for the speaker and microphone.

It is also expected that the new device may also address the issue of the missing NFC, wireless charging, quick charging and other features that are lacking in the current OnePlus 2 smartphone. All these details regarding the upcoming smartphone of OnePlus are very limited, but we are expecting more to hear it soon. Stay tuned for more updates on OnePlus Mini and other tech information.
