OnePlus 4 is rumored to come out in early 2017.

While OnePlus 3 just released this year, its successor OnePlus 4 is among the highly rumored smartphones to be released soon. The upcoming phone is said to be the ultimate "flagship killer" because of its impressive specs and affordability. Fans are also expecting Samsung's Galaxy S8, but it is believed that OnePlus 4 will give the recently launched iPhone 7 a run for its money.

Many rumors surrounding the upcoming OnePlus 4 suggest that the phone will come packed with 8 GB of RAM and a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 830 chipset. The Snapdragon 830 processor will be built on the 10nm, becoming the first chipset for such innovation, according to WCCF Tech.

The chipset maker is improving the homegrown Kryo cores on Snapdragon 830 processor for better power consumption. Furthermore, OnePlus 4 is said to feature Google's latest Android 7.0 Nougat OS.

When it comes to the camera, OnePlus 4 will have more impressive camera features than its precursor, and it may even surpass the features in most phones today. Apart from the smartphone coming with 256 GB microSD capability, the OnePlus 4 will feature 23MP rear camera, which is an improvement over the OnePlus 3's 16MP camera, according to Android Headlines. The upcoming device will also have an 8MP front camera with Sony's sensor integration.

Impressive screen features are among the key aspects that will make OnePlus 4 a flagship killer. If rumors are anything to go by, the upcoming smartphone from OnePlus may be the first handset in 2017 to sport a 4K resolution with an Optic OLED screen. The phone will reportedly have a 5.5-inch diagonal screen with an aluminum casing.

In addition to the OLED touch screen, the OnePlus 4 is rumored to use the latest 3D technology in smartphones. While the exact release date is yet to be unveiled, reports suggest that it will roll out between April and May next year.

The upcoming smartphone from OnePlus will beat Apple's iPhone 7, especially when it comes to pricing. While the iPhone 7 is going at approximately $899, the rumored OnePlus 4 will cost about $300 to $400.

The Chinese phone maker is still maintaining affordability with top-on-line features. Here is footage for further details on OnePlus 4:
