OnePlus Mini specs leak via AnTuTu

DeidreSeptember 23, 2015

OnePlus has gone on record as saying that the company looks to release a new smartphone just in time for the Christmas season. Carl Pei, interviewed at the time about the new smartphone in an interview, said that he didn’t know whether it would be a high-end smartphone or not, so eager tech enthusiasts couldn’t get a hint as to what the device would be. Now, however, it seems as though OnePlus wasn’t joking about that before-Christmas device, which could be called the OnePlus Mini.

New specs leaking from AnTuTu show the OnePlus Mini with an “A2301” model number, Full HD display with a 1920 x 1080p screen resolution, 2GB of RAM (registered as 1.9GB in AnTutu), 32GB of storage, 13MP back camera, a MediaTek MT6795T processor, and a PowerVR G6200 GPU, running Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. The A2301 model number is placed beside “OnePlus,” telling us that this is indeed a new OnePlus smartphone.

The OnePlus Mini scored 54,311 points on AnTuTu, which is slightly above the first benchmark score of the OnePlus 2 (the second AnTuTu benchmarking produced a score of 63,719 points). This second device also has 2GB of RAM, as opposed to the 3GB of RAM on the OnePlus 2. The smaller RAM while keeping the matching display resolution (Full HD) could confirm that this is the OnePlus Mini, although we can’t be sure. OnePlus could go with a MediaTek in the OnePlus Mini to avoid the issues with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 810. The display size is still unknown, and that’s the major piece of the puzzle that would decide this either way.

Finally something worth my attention.
IMO all that oversized rubbish, which is being manufactured due to higher compact screen cost, is getting out of control in China.

  I used to think the same. Thought I could never use a phone over 5 inches. Until I used one, now I could never go back. 5.5 is the perfect size to me.

This is a rather good phone, but will it be priced as good as the Redmi Note 2?

  Yup. However, a 5″ full HD screen, at last!
  Let’s see how they work out the pricing, and the crappy invite scheme!

I’d trade in (down?) the OP1 to go smaller, but I’m settling in with Cyanogen OS pretty well. Would need to hear about some major strides in Oxygen OS, which by many accounts is very much a work in progress. Would also really like to see those TD-LTE bands make a return on the US version, but I’m guessing they’ll follow what they’re doing with the OP2 and offer three tightly focused regional versions.

Finally a phone that has proper size and engineered for international market too.
IMO all that phablet trend, which is being followed by manufacturers due to higher compact screen cost, is getting out of control in China.

Mediatek chip. Yeah pass. Will never see Android 6

  Some companies have already updated their OS from 4.4 to 5.0/1. So, why are you saying you wont see Android M on Mediatek SoC powered phone?

  5.1 isn’t 6.0. Has any of those companies announced 6.X support?
