The OnePlus One may be the unproven handset, but on pure specs alone, does it have what it takes to top a proven flagship device such as the HTC One (M8)?
OnePlus may be the new kid on the mobile phone manufacturer block, but it has come out guns blazing with the OnePlus One. With 3GB of RAM, ample built-in storage and a workhorse of a processor – not to mention a killer price – it would be hard to ignore the OnePlus One. But the issue is there are so many other great Android phones on the market right now such as the HTC One (M8). Can the upstart newcomer overcome a device such as the (M8)? That’s for you to judge.
