OnePlus is finally rolling out its Android 4.4.4 KitKat upgrade for the One. Originally expected in July, the new firmware delivers updated apps, a whole host of welcome bug fixes, and a number of new features — including a Clear Image camera mode that provides super high-resolution photos.
HTC’s One M8 is one of the finest smartphones you can buy today — but its bigger brother, the upcoming One M8 max, is claimed to be even better. According to one source, the device will have a larger 5.9-inch display and Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 805 processor.
OnePlus is dropping ColorOS and bringing its own software to One devices in China next year. The company has already shifted its development team to Taiwan, where it plans to use the many talented Android developers and designers who are based locally to its advantage.
Following the incredible success of its first smartphone, which is still difficult to buy due to overwhelming demand, OnePlus will undoubtedly be adding new devices to its lineup in the future. According to a new report, one of them will be a smartwatch called the “OneWatch” — and its launch is right around the corner.
Don’t get too excited just yet, though. While it’s certainly a nice idea, it’s highly unlikely for the foreseeable future.
Images of an alleged “near-final prototype” Moto X+1 indicate the much-anticipated sequel to Motorola’s popular flagship will deliver a larger display and a better camera. The device is also expected to sport a more premium form factor with an aluminum chassis that isn’t completely unlike the HTC One’s.
