It’s got a 5.5-inch display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, a swappable back cover, now it’s finally got a reveal date. The long-teased Oneus One Android smartphone will make its public debut on dnesday, April 23. The device is from Oneus, a new smartphone entrant headed by former Oppo Vte u.

The Oneus One is doubly notable because it will be just the second smartphone (the first being the Oppo N1) to use CyanogenMod as its operating system instead of a stard -issued version of Android.

ng a fan favorite with Android ROM enthusiasts, CyanogenMod is busy transforming from a community-driven project into a company on a mission to create a great user experience using its own variation of Android.

Hoping to build up excitement for the forthcoming phone, Oneus has spent the past few weeks slowly leaking details about its hset.

Based on what we know so far, the Oneus One will feature a 5.5-inch 1080p display with more than 400 pixels per inch, a Snapdragon 801 processor.

See the Oneus One? It’s right there under the Sony Xperia Z1.

Oneus also cheekily “revealed” an image of the device earlier in h by photographing an early prototype sitting underneath an Xperia Z1. The point being that Oneus would cram its 5.5-inch device into a body typically reserved for 5-inch hsets. The Oneus One (can you see where future naming conventions are headed?) will also feature a 3,100 mAh battery a 13 megapixel rear-facing camera.

Oneus has yet to reveal anything about pricing, U.S. roll out dates, or carrier partnerships. But at least some of that information should be revealed at the Oneus One’s coming out party on April 23.
