Full metal jacket: OnePlus 2 could have all-metal coat

The OnePlus 2 launch is just mere weeks away. The most recent leaked images suggests that the new handset will be fitted with a slim, all-metal coat.

These renders shouldn’t be taken too seriously, however. Nothing has been officially confirmed by the Chinese manufacturer, but it does back up rumours that the phone will ditch plastic for a more premium material. We’ll find out in three weeks at the official launch event whether these rumours are true.

The company will be streaming the launch event in VR. There are even free headsets for the event, but these have now sold out.
