OnePlus 4 Release Date, News: Next Flagship Killer To Carry A Different Name? [VIDEO]

The OnePlus smartphones are tagged as "flagship killers". And now that Samsung and Apple are said to be launching the Galaxy S8 and iPhone 8 this year, OnePlus is definitely cooking a 2017 OnePlus 4 release date for its loyal users.

If the online speculations and rumors are true, OnePlus 4 specs will be worth the switch. With its stylish designs and innovative technology, the Chinese smartphone pose great threats to both Samsung and Apple. OnePlus 4 price is also expected to be much lower than its competition.

According to Forbes, OnePlus may benefit greatly on Google's decision to end the Nexus brand whose prices are comparable with OnePlus smartphones. OnePlus 4 release date in 2017 will certainly be something to look out for.

The most noteworthy OnePlus 4 specs will be the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chipset. This will also be the chipset that Samsung will be using for its Galaxy S8. The powerful chipset will make the smartphone faster and more efficient.

OnePlus 4 specs will also include 8 GB of RAM with minimum internal storage of 64 GB and a maximum of 128 GB. In addition, OnePlus 4 price may be affected by speculations that the new OnePlus will finally be waterproof with upgraded dual cameras.

As reported by PC Advisor, OnePlus will choose to skip with OnePlus 4 and will go directly to OnePlus 5. The Chinese company is following superstition that the number four (4) is bad luck. Sony has also done the same with its Xperia Z series, skipping Z4 and launching Xperia Z5 after Xperia Z3.

For the OnePlus 4 release date, the company is expected to launch its newest flagship killer sometime after Samsung launches the Galaxy S8. Thus OnePlus 4 release date is expected to be around July 2017. With the innovative OnePlus 4 specs, OnePlus 4 price is still expected to be very competitive at $400.
