OnePlus Ace 2 specs and price in Kenya

Build

OnePlus Ace 2 looks as premium as the name sounds. It is built of a Glass front (Asahi Glass), aluminum frame, and glass back (Gorilla Glass 5). The elegance is further enhanced by the 3D display front glass, and the slight bump where the main camera lenses are housed. The circular camera housing at the rear of the camera is a marvel of design, maybe a promise of things to come. Measuring 163.4 x 74.3 x 8.7 mm and weighing 204g, it is not one of the slimmest or lightest handsets on the market. However, it fits well in the hand and you will find no difficulty carrying it around in your pocket or handbag.

Protecting the immersive screen is an Asahi Glass tamper-proof always-on-display protector.
