OnePlus X could cost around $220

Expected to be launched later this month, the OnePlus X is about to become OnePlus' third smartphone to date, and the first to sport a 5-inch screen (as you may know, both the OnePlus One and OnePlus 2 are offering 5.5-inch screens). The new handset doesn't seem to be offering the latest and greatest high-end specs, which likely means it will be sold at an accessible price.

According to Chinese leakster Leaksfly, the upcoming device will cost 1,399 CNY in China - about $220. The phone's price for other markets will probably be higher, but hopefully not by much.

Meanwhile, OnePlus posted another teaser image, petty much confirming that the "powerfully beautiful" handset that it was talking about yesterday is the OnePlus X - just as expected.

The 5-inch display of the OnePlus X seemingly offers a 1080 x 1920 pixels resolution, while the phone itself measures 140 x 69 x 6.9 mm, and might be built around a metal frame. Interestingly, the OnePlus X could be powered by a rather old Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor. Other features are expected to include an 8 MP front-facing camera, a 13 MP rear camera, 2 GB or 3 GB of RAM, 16 GB of internal memory, microSD card support, and a 2450 mAh battery. Of course, we'll have to wait for OnePlus to confirm all this.

What you're seeing below are photos that allegedly show the OnePlus X (revealed by China's Telecommunications Equipment Certification Center). Do you like what the handset looks like?
