If you’ve been on tech Twitter this week you may have noticed a bevy of bloggers and YouTubers sharing selfies with freeze-dried ice cream, sent over from smartphone maker OnePlus. I got one too: a phone-sized box packed with “a crunchy and creamy snack, ready to eat anywhere on the planet.” And more important than the way it tastes is why it’s freeze-dried in the first place: because it’s ostensibly “space ice cream”, a.k.a. ice cream for astronauts.

Why is OnePlus suddenly struck with space fever? The answer has to do with the company’s historically underwhelming smartphone cameras; an historically much more prominent camera company called Hasselblad; and OnePlus’s shrewd understanding of just how valuable licensing can be. Join me to see just how excited you should (or shouldn’t) be, in this MrMobile editorial video.
