OnePlus and Hasselblad are ending their five-year partnership

OnePlus and Hasselblad are ending their five-year partnership , according to an official blog post. The smartphone maker has started developing its own camera system, which it has dubbed the DetailMax Engine. There was no reason given for the split, though OnePlus heaped praise on Hasselblad in that blog post. It lauded the camera maker's "obsession with precision and detail" and opined about "nights in the lab chasing the perfect balance of light and shadow." The company also said that "Hasselblad’s refined aesthetic sense is now part of our imaging DNA, woven into every future OnePlus camera." OnePlus As for every future OnePlus camera, the proprietary imaging system is still in the early stages. OnePlus CEO Pete Lau said he's already testing an early prototype that's been "designed from the ground up to deliver the clearest and most real photos on a smartphone."

The Verge reports that the logo is likely to disappear with the release of the upcoming OnePlus 14, which may be renamed the OnePlus 15 to avoid the unlucky number "4" in China.
