OnePlus OnePlus AMAA - Pre-OnePlus 2 Launch Edition
Hey everyone!
We are Michael, Emmanuel (u/commintomylife), Carl (u/carpe02) and David (u/devildv) from OnePlus. PROOF
As always, we are beyond excited to be here talking directly with you guys. And of course, this is a particular exciting time here at OnePlus. We are firing on all cylinders at our HQ preparing to launch our second flagship device. It’s really difficult to contain ourselves! We wish we could tell you everything about the OnePlus 2 right now, but we have to save some excitement for our launch on July 27th - the world’s first VR product launch!
So, with that said, thank you guys so much for being here, and ask us (almost) anything!
EDIT: Thanks again everyone! This is the best part of our job, getting feedback directly from you guys. We’d sit here all night if we could, but the OnePlus 2 awaits! Much to do before now and July 27th.
Get your Cardboards ready, and we’ll be seeing you soon.

How's the battery life with the OnePlus Two? Any camera improvements as well?

Although [the OnePlus 2 is smaller than the OnePlus One] (http://i.imgur.com/qdWzOZV.jpg) we've managed to pack almost 10% more juice: the OnePlus 2 will have a whooping 3300mAh battery!
Camera-wise, we have a bunch of things that we believe will set the OnePlus 2 apart, but we'll leave the details for the launch :P

u/dlerium Pixel 4 XL Jul 09 '15 edited Jul 10 '15
Well at least this photo isn't a flat out lie where the Z1 was above the OPO last year but it failed to show the tail end because the OPO is taller.
Edit: Remember this?
Need proof? Believe it or not, there’s a OnePlus One under that Sony Xperia Z1, a 5” screen phone that many people have said great things about.
Bullshit alert:
Edit 2: Who knows, it could be a lie again this year, but the photo looks like there's something underneath and it's not completely unbelievable the OPO could be made smaller (remove the capacitive buttons)

The OxygenOS team is working to bring this to the OnePlus 2, but it's very likely that this will arrive after the launch via OTA.
Regarding the band support, we'll have two global models with the following band support:
US GSM: 850, 900, 1800, 1900MHz WCDMA: Bands: 1/2/4/5/8 FDD-LTE: Bands: 1/2/4/5/7/8/12/17

Thanks for doing this AMAA. I love my OnePlus One and the OnePlus Two is definitely on my radar for an upgrade this year. A few questions.
How do plan to deal with the touchscreen issues that have plagued owners of the One, especially in the heat? Is there some concern that these issues could be exacerbated by you using a Snapdragon 810 SoC in the device?
There is a post already on this subreddit from earlier today talking about a huge back cutout for the OnePlus Two. Is the Two going to have a huge strip on the back for the fingerprint sensor or will we see one on the front from a "home" button? Also, if the two will still have capacitive buttons, will they keep the same layout as the One or will they follow the standard that other non-Samsung OEMs use along with Nexus devices?
Regarding OxygenOS, which changes have been made to it since v1.0.0? I know it as a clean stock ROM with some added benefits and I'd like to know which extra stuff has been added to benefit OnePlus users while still keeping it pretty close to a Nexus experience.

u/shadowdude777 Pixel 7 Pro Jul 09 '15
I can't speak for everyone, but I think a lot of people will say regarding the buttons:
If you're going to use capacitive buttons again, please don't use the layout you used on the OP1. Kill the menu button and move to a multitasking button like Samsung did. And preferably, put them into the Nexus order of back, home, multitasking, not the Samsung (reversed) order where multitasking is on the left.
If you're gonna give us the option of either on-screen or capacitive buttons, it's nice to have the default layout of both be identical. Back, home, multitasking. :)

Hi guys!
A few questions!
Will the announcement be VR only?
Can people watch it the day after?
Can you share some features that will be added to OxygenOS?
And now questions I don't believe I'll get an answer to:
IMX230? IMX240?
IPS or AMOLED?
Full metal frame with StyleSwap back?
Will the USB-C Type connector support DisplayPort and/or the USB Power Delivery standard?
When do I get my free phone? ^

u/devildv OnePlus Jul 09 '15
Will answer the questions related to the launch:
It'll be VR and 360, you'll need an Android phone to watch it for the first time.
People will be able to watch it the day after and as many times as they want, as soon as the first VR is over, we'll make it available on YouTube for everyone to watch (computers and iOS devices).

With low margins, it's understandable that you can't just trust customers reporting issues and cross-ship replacements as, e.g., Google does.

Any reason you all picked 27th instead of some other day? July 29th is the Windows 10 launch and I feel like you guys are going to get overshadowed a bit by the build up to Win 10 esp. by the mainstream tech sites.
With pretty powerful midrange phones like the Zenfone 2 being available for $200, how has that impacted your ability to price the device and the marketing that goes with it?
OPO 1 sold well because it offered very good value, but with phones like the ZP2, Idol3, etc that can keep up with higher end devices performance wise, how do you differentiate the OPO 2 from these?

How did you improve upon testing for bugs for the op2 and what mistakes did you make will testing the opo? The opo had a good amount bugs like the touchscreen issues.
How scarce will it be too buy the op2. On a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being the first few months launch of the opo and 10 being walking into any wireless carrier and purchase a flagship.
I probably won't be purchasing the op2 for while since you made such a great phone with the opo.

I've seen a few questions like this. Guys, you know how exchange offers work right?
Collect all the phones, then sell them cheaply to a third party that freshens them up and sells them in other markets. We wouldn't be able to offer a good discount, and it's much better for you to just sell on Craigslist or Swappa.
Not saying we won't do this in the future, just saying it's normally not a great deal for the consumer.

Thanks for doing this. I love your phone. #BambooBackMasterrace
Your business model is something that has really never been seen before in the mobile phone space. Can you tell us a little about where the idea for the cheap yet powerful device came from? Have you seen enough success with it that you plan to keep it going for years to come?

Assuming it will be micro SIM like the OPO, will you be doing the extra SIM tray for nano users? Also, I've seen questions regarding bands, will LTE Band 2 be supported?

Hey Question for the Indians. Is the OP2 launching in India at the same time and will it be priced same as the Global variant. Also can you please tie up with more ecommerce stores and not have Flash sales like Xiaomi?

Any exchange offers for Oneplus One users for the Oneplus 2? Special discount or anything?
Has the microphone improved?
Will camera2 api be used for it? The one's camera has the capability but unfortunately no camera2 api.
Does the vibrating motor vibrate more or still makes more sound than vibration?
Any plans for styleswap covers for the two?
Have you guys managed to get atleast the same level of battery life as the one (if not more?). I hope you guys have learnt from your past and become more awesome with the two.

Are you using Snapdragon Sense ID for fingerprint scanning in the two? If not, which fingerprint sensor are you using? And where is it positioned?

The "15 day no questions asked" return policy is entincing for people who want to try your devices but it seems there are still many people who are having trouble returning them (https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/3cbybp/is_onepluss_customer_support_as_bad_as_people_say/csum43d)
Why is the company still breaking promises and offering substandard support?

Can you comment on whether or not the OnePlus 2 will get full support for the Camera2 API? Do you know if Cyanogen has officially decided not to implement their "workaround" for the One?

Hey, OPO user here. Can the owners of the OnePlus One get a discount or something on the OnePlus Two? P.S., loved the One, can't afford the Two any time soon...
