In our in-depth OnePlus 2 review, we discussed how impressive OnePlus’ work has been so far. This small startup has managed to create a mid-range smartphone that outshines many high-end Android phones where design, build quality and sometimes even performance are concerned. Most impressively, the OnePlus 2 can be had for less than half the price of many of the phones it bests.

When OnePlus released the OnePlus 2, the company said that it planned to launch a second new phone before 2015 was over, and now we know exactly when that new phone will debut.

In a tweet on Wednesday morning, OnePlus confirmed that it plans to announce its second new smartphone of 2015 on October 29th.

The company didn’t offer many details in the tweet, though it did include a graphic with a large “X” at its center. Needless to say, this suggests the new phone will be named the OnePlus X.

While OnePlus is doing its best to make its new phone a surprise, we’ve already seen a leaked photo of the handset, which was discovered earlier this week in an FCC filing. You can see the photo of the unreleased OnePlus X phone in this post. Specs have yet to be confirmed, but we know the phone will be powered by a 1.9GHz processor thanks to details provided in the FCC filing.
