OnePlus has showcased its first Prototype Smartphone powered by Snapdragon
855 at the MWC, as it had promised.
OnePlus said that it has been using the latest Snapdragon 8 series
Mobile Platforms since the release of the OnePlus One. The Snapdragon 855
Mobile Platform combined with the Snapdragon X50 5G modem and Qualcomm RF
Front-End solutions to power the phone.
At Qualcomm Technologies’ booth, OnePlus simulated a
futuristic setting of 5G cloud gaming where players would only need a
smartphone and a gamepad. Through the powerful capabilities of cloud processing
as well as the throughput and responsiveness of 5G, players can play large
sized games online that are generally only playable after downloading onto the
PC first.
Utilizing Snapdragon elite gaming features and
optimizations, players were able to experience high definition and low latency
cloud gaming like never before.
OnePlus will be partnering up with carriers for the
phone. It already announced that it will be working closely with EE to be among
the first to release a 5G commercial smartphone in the UK.
