Putting the OnePlus 2 and the OnePlus One side by side, we saw that the OnePlus 2 display has a yellowish tint on it.
Check the yellowish tint on the OnePlus 2 which is on the left.
While both phones here have the Sandstone Black back finish, the contour on the OnePlus 2's back felt rougher, compared to that of the OnePlus One.
The OnePlus 2 has a metal frame.
Let's get back to the OnePlus 2 for now. The display is again 1080p FHD. The bezels have been slightly trimmed, and the whole phone feels more handy.
The fingerprint sensor is at the centre of the lower front bezel.
The 13MP camera at the back now uses an Omnivision sensor instead of the Sony sensor used in OnePlus. It also comes with laser-assisted autofocus and OIS (Optical Image Stabilization).
The right side of the phone has the power/lock button and the volume rocker.
The left side of the phone has the new alert slider with which notification settings can be toggled.
The bottom has the USB Type-C port and the speaker grill. Don’t get fooled by the dual speaker grill, since there is only one speaker towards the right.
The back is removable but the 3300mAh battery is sealed-in.
The phone now comes with dual-SIM support and can support two 4G nano-SIMs.
