That’s what Oneus says in the first of what will be many blogposts about the specs of the upcoming Oneus 2. The company says in a blog post this is version 2.1 of the Snapdragon 810, which has been engineered to mitigate any problems with running too hot.

“though there have been reports that the 810 runs warmer than its predecessors, we assure you that we have taken all the necessary precautions beyond to prevent this from occurring in the 2. worked very closely with Qualcomm’s engineers to integrate an improved version of the chipset (v2.1) in the Oneus 2, fine-tuned both hardware software. The 2 will be “cooler than ever”.

The story behind the story: Oneus is making a big point about the fact this is version 2.1 of this system-on-a-chip to allay any fears about its overheating issue. Oneus promises that this is the first drop of spec information that will slowly pour out over time, much like did with the G4, Oneus did last year for the Oneus One. Not every announcement will be newsworthy, but we’ll keep watch to see what else Oneus has in store for its follow-up phone.
