Sketches of the OnePlus Two surface

OnePlus’ next flagship device, the OnePlus Two, is set to make its debut real soon. And while we know it’ll reportedly have a metal build and fingerprint scanner, not much is known about the device’s design. Business Insider was able to get their hands on leaked sketches of the smartphone. One of it shows the stainless steel bottom portion, USB Type C connector, dual lens camera, and the fingerprint sensor. It looks rather similar to the OnePlus One so it would seem they focused more on upping the specs and boosting marketing for this one.

OnePlus claims fingerprint scanner on new device will be ‘faster than Touch ID’

When it comes to the accuracy of fingerprint scanners on smartphones, Apple’s Touch ID is still top-notch. Upstart OnePlus claims its upcoming OnePlus 2 device will have a fingerprint scanner that’ll be “faster than Touch ID.” They aren’t releasing specifics yet on what fingerprint scanner they’re using.

Some have speculated that they might use Qualcomm’s Sense ID scanner technology. Sense ID makes use of ultrasonic waves to penetrate the outer layers of the sin. It doesn’t just get a detailed 3D image of your fingerprint; it also takes note of your sweat pores and ridge flow. Again, this is speculation at this point. What we do know is OnePlus has to meet high expectations with its new device. It’ll be unveiled on July 27.

Hoping to bring out another game changing device, OnePlus team has been creating a lot of hype for its next flagship, the OnePlus 2. It was expected to come out in Q2 of this year but apparently it is getting pushed back to the third quarter. The reason? Issues with Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 810 processor. If true, this issue might even cause some problems for the upcoming flagships of other brands. The other rumoured specs of the new OnePlus device are that'll also run on 4GB of RAM and have a QHD 5.5-inch display.
