OnePlus Reflexion app uses both your cameras to capture unique reflections

Reflexion - Capture unique reflections of your world
You might not be able to get your hands on a OnePlus phone, but you can try the company’s new photography app called Reflexion. It’s available now on Android and iOS.

Reflexion is aimed at those that really like to be creative with their photos. The app uses both the front and back cameras on your phone to capture two different photos. The two photos are then automatically combined into an X-shaped frame. Users have a chance to drag the photos, as well as the X frame itself, for even more creativity. OnePlus calls the ending result a unique reflection.

Of course no photography app is worth it’s weight in gold unless you can easily share your creations. Reflexion not only allows you to save your images to the Gallery, but you can also share directly to Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and more.

Reflexion isn’t the most unique app in the world, but it seems like a good one to try if you have an artistic side.

OnePlus said in a blog post that the app was inspired by the recently unveiled OnePlus X, which is a phone with a high quality design at an affordable price. Priced at only $250, the OnePlus X features either an onyx or ceramic finish. It has a 5-inch display with a resolution of 1080p, and it’s powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, and has 3GB of RAM, along with 16GB of internal storage. The back has a 13-megapixel camera, while the front gets a generous 8-megapixels.

Reflexion is completely free with the only requirement being that you need Android 4.0+ or iOS 8.0+ for the app to work on your device. You can download the Android version here and the iOS version here.

Here are some of the specs for the OnePlus Open 2
OnePlus Open in Emerald Dusk open halfway showing home screen.

The OnePlus Open was a heck of a foldable phone that scored a four out of five in our review, and now we have exciting news about its successor. The OnePlus Open 2 is scheduled to launch sometime in 2025 and promises to bring serious upgrades with it, including an even slimmer design. That's saying something, especially since the original OnePlus Open is already incredibly thin (just 5.8mm) when unfolded.

The news comes courtesy of tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo and through GSMArena's translation. A previous rumor stated that the OnePlus Open 2 might be less than 10mm when folded, lending credence to the idea of an ultrathin phone.

The OnePlus 13 will beat most other smartphones in one surprising way
OnePlus 12 Glacial White cameras.

With the Chinese launch of the OnePlus 13 just days away, more and more details keep making their way to our feeds. This morning, three key specs on the OnePlus 13 appeared on Weibo (the Chinese social media outlet) and were posted by OnePlus itself. Two of them are exciting, while the other is downright surprising.

The first detail is that it will use an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor with a "super intuitive" position. In practice, this means the fingerprint sensor will be able to pick up details more accurately and will work even if your finger is wet. It also works in low light and should be significantly faster than an optical sensor.

OnePlus 13 confirmed to get a mixed bag of camera upgrades

OnePlus has been steadily dropping bits of information as it gears up for the launch of its next flagship phone later this month. The latest tease sheds some light on the OnePlus 13’s camera hardware, which seems like a mix of small upgrades and a minor drop.

The primary camera will adopt Sony’s LYT-808 sensor, which is the same 50MP 1/1.4-inch format kit that we also saw on the OnePlus 12. This time around, OnePlus is extending 4K Dolby Vision capture support across all cameras instead of keeping it limited to the main snapper.
