After explaining its decision to choose a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor instead of a newer model for its One smartphone, OnePlus has quietly announced via Facebook that its handset will actually ship with a better processor. The company has updated the cover photo on its social accounts including Facebook and Google+ with a new image that lists the Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor among the revealed specs of the phone. The company has not commented on why it chose to upgrade the processor, and did not say whether this choice will affect in any way launch plans or prices – previously, OnePlus announced the handset will ship in the second quarter of the year, with prices starting at less than $400.
