A new OnePlus 3 image was leaked online recently and it has made quite a buzz, as the OnePlus X was released not so long ago at the end of October. This is also the first time we've heard about the OnePlus 3, and it’s rumoured to sport a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 chipset.
Besides that, the device could also carry a Full HD display and it seems to follow the OnePlus X’s design (more or less). The picture suggests that the device might have a full metal body as well, but for the moment it’s still too early to say anything as we weren’t given a slightest hint on the rest of the tech specs; that being said, it won’t be a surprising if the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 turns out to be true since OnePlus has always been known to use Qualcomm chipsets.

Kicking off their usual viral marketing for the next OnePlus device, the company that made the OnePlus One has confirmed that the OnePlus 2 smartphone will be using the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 v2.1 processor. While it may have a bad reputation for overheating, the octa-core processor does offer impressive performance and features such as UHD 4K video streaming. In addition, the OnePlus team have revealed that they may have solved the overheating issue. Rather than concentrate the processor on one spot, the various cores will be spread out over the phone's board and layered with thermal gel and graphite to ensure better heat dissipation even with hours of use. The OnePlus OxygenOS will also be tweaked and optimized to work better with the Snapdragon 810. Still no news on Malaysia release dates or pricing but we expect these details to come soon as the OnePlus 2 is expected to arrive within 2015.

Qualcomm has just announced its new Mobile Development Platform Smartphone (MDPS) which features the latest 64-bit Snapdragon 810 processor. Along with this super-fast SoC, you get other ready-to-ship technologies developed by the chip maker. The Snapdragon 810 64 bit Octa Core processor inside is made up of four Cortex A57 and Cortex A53 cores built on a 20nm process. As a result, even with a 50% increase in the processing power, the chip should be power efficient. The device comes with an Adreno 430 GPU, which is 30% faster than the previous generation along with 4GB LP-DDR4 RAM. The device also comes with many more features as listed below but unfortunately, these technologies don't come cheap, and anyone interested can purchase the device from Qualcomm for $800 (about RM2682).
On the back, there's a 13MP camera sensor with OIS capable of recording 4K videos at 30 fps. While on the front, there is a 4MP auto focus camera which can take 1080p videos. Other notable features include USB 3.0, a fingerprint sensor, 11.1 surround sound with Dolby and DTS, Bluetooth 4.1, Snapdragon StudioAccess technology and SecureMSM digital rights management. There are a number of sensors onboard too, like an ambient light sensor, proximity sensor, pressure sensor, temperature and humidity sensor, UV sensor, Mobeam sensor, 3 axis gyro and 3 axis accelerometer. Obviously, there are no Malaysia release dates or pricing for the Qualcomm MDPS but it does give an indication as to what new features are coming in smartphones for 2015.
