OnePlus knows how to make waves. By OnePlus One and the Invite system they have already proved. But can the Chinese it, without taking the word flagship killer in his mouth? We show you the test what the OnePlus X is good. Soon the OnePlus X is supplemented by an additional color variant, namely the Champagne Edition, which is a white-golden smartphone case. The details can be found in the section under "price and availability".
This insurance is available in two variants. Did your only protection for the first 12 months, then does the insurance cost once 39,99 Euro. Closes your insurance for 24 months from, then you will pay 64.99 euros. When buying a OnePlus X on the EU store of OnePlus You can do this insurance get immediate booking or subsequently acquire a maximum of 14 days after the purchase of smart phones.
Since this insurance has come into cooperation with simplesurance headquartered in Berlin concluded, to the handling of any claims go quickly and easily. More information on the new range of OnePlus there in their blog.
Thanks to the compact design the OnePlus X is very good in the hand. It's nice to see that there are manufacturers that produce small and compact smartphone. In times of 5,5 to 6-inch monster the size of smartphones has also become a very subjective matter. It will certainly give smartphone users, for the OnePlus X is not just because of its size is right. The Onyx version weighs 138 grams and 160 grams ceramic model. I must admit here that both variants greasy fingerprints irresistibly drawn.
Another great feature of Oxygen OS on the OnePlus X is the option between capacitive and virtual buttons to select. Use can the unit also set up that the capacitive keys also work if the virtual navigation bar is activated. In this way your passes even faster to Google Now, because you can directly start the function with the capacitive keys, but in the virtual bar you have to wipe up to bring out the function. If the need arises, you can also swap the functions for capacitive and virtual keys.
The OnePlus X not yet used the actually current Android version 6.0 marshmallow. Nevertheless, it offers an Authorization Manager. The CyanogenMod had anticipated a year ago, and he was adopted by Oxygen OS. Whether it is a marshmallow update in the way, or whether he will be replaced simply, we do not know.
This means that you deal with the OnePlus X - though not high-end you can expect a very good performance. Combined with 3 GB of RAM, the smartphone has no problems with multitasking, or any jerkiness. Sure, OnePlus X can the current smartphone flagships in terms of performance not hold a candle, but in terms of stability and the liquid OnePlus X done a very good job.
OnePlus was so wise that OnePlus X to provide a slot for microSD memory cards. For since it is only available in a 16 GB version, the internal memory is quickly too small. Remedy the update to Android Marshmallow latest. Then microSD cards can be formatted as a seamless extension of the internal memory.
Grafish very elaborate games are rather unsuitable for the OnePlus X, especially if you wish to know Smoothly player experience. Apart from this, the device can display and process everything but easy. I can not say it often enough: The OnePlus X runs superfluid, which is surprising at this price. And although similar expensive equipment trumps with a better performance, no one can offer the OnePlus X in terms of liquid handling and Design Paroli.
The sound quality with telephone calls is sufficient perfectly, but here you must not expect too much. To make calls, it is sufficient, but for a good noise suppression or a premium microphone you can search long. For the price but this is more than acceptable.
As noted already in the section software is delivered with the OnePlus X Oxygen OS 2.1.2, which finally brings the manual mode in the camera app with it. That will certainly be pleased some hobby smartphone photographers. For video fans Camera Full HD video records and slow motion shots even with 120 frames per second in HD resolution. As with the OnePlus 2 there is quick start options for the camera. Either through gestures on the lock screen, or on the assignment of a key on OnePlus X.
Although the image quality of the camera lens is not perfect, but acceptable, and you should not expect too much here. The camera I tested on an overcast rainy day something. For most phones, good weather for good pictures is provided. With the relatively low light conditions the OnePlus X could but very good deal and the color representation and the contrast were neat.
However, the OnePlus X has in very dark environment problems and strong noise gets in the pictures wide. In addition, a consistent color representation in these conditions. If the lighting conditions do not, there are also problems with underexposure. In a photo with a swan motif as the OnePlus overwrought images. The motive was overexposed and walked details lost in the background.
At 12.4 MP OnePlus the X snaps in 4: 3 format. Screwed her down Megapixel 7.9 MP You must at the 16: 9 format pictures. Numerous functions are also offered: HDR mode, beauty mode and the ability to shoot sequential shots.
Videos can also be rotated in 1080p and 720p, 720p, but can also slow-motion video at 120 frames per second turn. A time lapse mode is also included with.

If you the vile OnePlus X Onyx not extravagant enough? Then waiting for you nor the OnePlus X Ceramic. This limited edition of 10,000 pieces version differs in the material on the back. Instead of glass, there is a back made of ceramic, which is known to be harder than glass. OnePlus Offering exclusive Ceramic version of OnePlus X to use before 24 November 2015 own store.

OnePlus X: Design & Processing
For a smartphone under the 300 euro mark, the OnePlus X is amazingly beautifully designed and high quality finish. One has the feeling, to keep a much more expensive smartphone in hand. Even the big brother, the OnePlus 2 saw and felt very good. But the favorable OnePlus X feels even more exclusive. Especially the glass back is a Augenschmeichler. Here both color variants give the impression of precious, whether. In glossy black or matt ceramic robe
The frame of the OnePlus X is made of anodized metal, in the 17 hair-thin lines were längsläufig acid etched into it. The whole thing may sound like after a strange procedure of the torture chamber, but precisely this attention to detail ensures that the OnePlus X feels so high as twice as expensive smartphone. Bravo OnePlus!
According to Carl Pei, the co-founder of OnePlus, mainly the production of ceramic back of the limited edition is very costly. Each of these backs need a Month of manufacture time and only 20 percent of these can be used for the limited edition of OnePlus X. So these are 80 percent Committee. Nevertheless, it creates OnePlus to keep the price at 369 euros. Ceramic as a material will not even be in twice as expensive top smartphones like Apple's iPhone, Samsung Galaxy S6 or Huawei Mate S.
The difference between the two X-OnePlus editions is larger than you see at first glance. He is not only the metal frame. The ceramic model also has a slightly angled edge. The Onyx version, however, has rounded display glass. That is very similar to 2.5D glass, as we know it from the Nexus 6 or from HTC One A9. The ribbed edge provides more grip. And that is essential, because you certainly do not want to drop the sensitive glass-metal smartphone.
In the SIM card dual carriage can be either two SIM cards or SIM card and a microSD card Insert. Thus OnePlus did not repeat a mistake of OnePlus Two. That there is no possibility of memory expansion. That would have been fatal in OnePlus X because its 16 GB internal memory will be filled certainly fast. But thanks to the appropriate card slot, up to 128GB.
The double grill at the bottom suggests stereo speakers. But only one of its halves emits sound that hides other only the microphone. Further reductions compared to the big brother we discover at the bottom of OnePlus-X-housing. The USB port on the OnePlus 2 was the practical type C connector. In addition, the large model offered a fingerprint sensor. When favorable OnePlus X you have to be content with the old USB port and take waive the practical safety accessories. After all, it has capacitive buttons for navigation. This saves a few square centimeters on the screen, as you have to show no software keys (those can still activate).
The notification slider on the left edge also occurs when OnePlus X. He was introduced in OnePlus 2 and rapidly provides the rest, as you can mute with him OnePlus X. This is faster than going through the menus.
The notification LED can be, in contrast to that of many other smartphones, freely configure. So you can change for each app and see quickly to what it is for an alert colors.
On the back, we are pleased to note that the camera lens plan was edged into the case. Many other manufacturers have installed protruding optics that involve a sensitive disadvantage. Such devices can not just put on the table, except they are placed on display.
For both variants of OnePlus X there are matching cases in several colors. In the catalog you will find a new pair of in-ear headphones, which should be favorable and sound excellent.
While Pei believes that LCDs provides better colors than AMOLED displays, then had the OnePlus X but an AMOLED display are used to make the device as thin as possible. It is a fortunate coincidence that the built-in display technology on a small device very well working with the relatively small battery capacity and the battery are not too expensive.
Is matched by now optional Ambient display mode. The well-known Motorola feature displays alerts on the display when you hold your hand over the proximity sensor (in Selfie cam). Only a small area then shines in "duo-tone" as OnePlus calls it, while the rest remains dark and consumes no power.
Of course, you must not use said, dark theme. You can adjust the color palette and the complete design of the user interface. OnePlus has installed the matching board means.
The current software OnePlus X is Oxygen OS 2.1.2 and it is based on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. The firmware looks very similar to the Google submission of Android. However, it is appreciated by a large number of options and tweaks. Since version 2.1, the camera app in OS Oxygen a manual mode.
According OnePlus the 2.1.2 update has already been rolled out to all OnePlus-X users. Some things have been improved with the updated operating system. Known problems when using the camera app has been removed, the HDR mode has also been corrected and also a number of system bugs away. In addition to work more efficiently in low battery capacity with the update the system. Those who have problems with the microSD card slot must be patient until the next previously announced update.
On the X OnePlus little additional software is preinstalled. OnePlus limited to apps that are actually used in everyday life. Everything else you have to raise yourself in the Play Store. The additions focus on interface customization. You can use skins and customize the behavior of the interface in some places.
You can about the color temperature of the display readjust if your wishes. You can change the color of individual accents. A Dark Theme gives the entire surface a very dark, high-contrast look. For the switched display your gestures can configure that the OnePlus X in certain modes to wake from standby. You can choose between capacitive hardware buttons or software keys. The software keys can you replace and expand. The same goes for the quick setting items. This diversity is OnePlus-typical, but in comparison to other smartphones unique.

OnePlus X: Display
The OnePlus X is the first device with a OnePlus AMOLED display. It is only five inches tall, and thus the most compact in the family. OnePlus was smart and made the user interface very dark. So the excellent black levels of the display technology come very advantage. Moreover, it will save you power and increases battery life.While Pei believes that LCDs provides better colors than AMOLED displays, then had the OnePlus X but an AMOLED display are used to make the device as thin as possible.

OnePlus X: Performance
No one will buy OnePlus X because of the performance. Instead of points with clenched computing power, the device was calibrated to different values. Nevertheless, this Android smartphone is not weak in every way fr Ramsch device or a shaky beginners device. The tetranuclear Snapdragon 801 (32-bit) uses the X OnePlus a processor that was celebrated even before the time of 64-bit processors and overheating problems for his performance.This means that you deal with the OnePlus X - though not high-end you can expect a very good performance.

In AnTuTu test it reached 38,000 points with a small performance hit on the second pass. In Geekbench 3 the OnePlus X scored as single-core test score 800-900 points in multi-core 2100-2500 points. Qualcomm's Vellamo benchmark showed the OnePlus X roughly at eye level (Metal-score) with the OnePlus One and the Nexus 6 (for testing). When evaluating the multi-core performance, it is just behind the Zenfone 2 (to the test).
OnePlus X: Audio
Only from one of two grills at the bottom of OnePlus X sounds sound. This is sufficient; but nothing more. But one must note that there still an above-average volume and sound quality provides, the unrivaled in the price range. Much more important, however, is the integration of an FM radio. You can listen to FM radio when headphones are plugged in. The pre-installed tuner is not so bad.The sound quality with telephone calls is sufficient perfectly, but here you must not expect too much. To make calls, it is sufficient, but for a good noise suppression or a premium microphone you can search long. For the price but this is more than acceptable.
OnePlus X: Camera
The OnePlus-X camera comes with a 13 megapixel sensor ISOCELL who works with an aperture of f / 2.2. As a front camera OnePlus uses an 8 megapixel camera, the aperture is indicated by f / 2.4. Unlike OnePlus 2 of ISOCELL sensor operates with a phase autofocus system. Carl Pei said that the reason for the change in the low range of the laser AF system is.As noted already in the section software is delivered with the OnePlus X Oxygen OS 2.1.2, which finally brings the manual mode in the camera app with it.

Of course, the battery is firmly installed, but if you keep the energy-saving qualities of AMOLED displays in mind, then this should bring the OnePlus X loosely over the day. If you then still uses options such as Dark Theme and the automatic brightness control, might even be in it even more. With a future Android 6.0 marshmallow update and thus Doze and App standby battery life is even better.Once we have subjected the battery several benchmark tests, we will update this section.

OnePlus placed with the X series no new flagship. The X-Series to be the playground for new ideas, materials and features.
