The coming week will be handful as we will witness the launch of three highly anticipated smartphones, plus a new phone that might be the next best thing to have come out of Micromax in a while.
Check out the top four phones coming out next week:
One Plus 2
OnePlus 2 is the most anticipated phone on this list for obvious reasons – success of the OnePlus One phone, Virtual Reality launch event and embracing quality features for a minimal price – the phone will be a bonafide hit.
