OnePlus One confirmed with Snapdragon 801 2.5 GHz and 3 GB of RAM

Never settle is the slogan of OnePlus, and Pete Lau, CEO, confirmed by the facts that it is not just words.

We had in fact already noticed that something had changed in the specification of One, and that the Snapdragon 800 originally planned, had been replaced with a Snapdragon 801, but apparently there was more.

First of all, Lau confirms that it is the Snapdragon 801 MSM8974AC, the faster variant, the 2.5 GHz. Moreover, we will also have 3 GB of RAM, just like our informant had told us initially , in spite of the fact that it seemed we had to content ourselves with only 2 GB.

In other words: OnePlus One smartphone will be more "powerful" among those currently on the market . Only Galaxy S5 uses the SoC MSM8974AC, but with 2 GB of RAM, while the Xperia Z2 has 3 GB of RAM, but the processor clock is 2.3 GHz And if you are worried that all these hardware changes can delay the presentation , fixed for April 23, Pete Lau reassures that the roadmap will not change.

Added to this is a screen of 5.5 "full HD, enclosed in the dimensions of an Xperia Z1, a 13-megapixel camera and a 3,100 mAh battery, and rear covers are interchangeable in kevlar and bamboo In addition, we will have the customizations CyanogenMod 11S, specific for OnePlus One, including the always-on voice commands . All this, as you know , for less than $ 499: can you resist?
