**** The Official OnePlus 5 Thread ****

Wow. iPhone much ?


In any case. It looks alright. Most phones do look pretty similar these days. There's only so much you can do with a touch screen slab phone. although, this does look very much like an iPhone.

Wouldn't be shocked if Apple handed out a lawsuit.

I'm wondering if there is going to be a 3.5mm jack at all now. A reply Carl sent to someone sometime back on Twitter made it almost suggest the headphone jack moved to top of phone. But latest teaser pic suggests nothing at all at top of the device.

Why the heck did they need to put 8GB RAM in there?!

I guess so but that can only drive prices up again. Isn't aggressive pricing what made OP successful in the first place?

They were a new company, they had to make a mark and they did so. Profit margins were very tight I'm guessing on the early models. They can't sustain that for ever so it was bound to happen.

Even if it costs £499 it's still a hell of a lot cheaper than it's competitors.

Do OnePlus phones ever drop in price during their lifetime or is only when they next version comes out?

 

[Mobius 1]

Usually when a newer version comes out. Or like the T model. Maybe they will do a oneplus 5T

Invite system possibly back for India ?

I thought the oneplus 5 in India was being sold by Amazon which makes the invite system odd.

I hope the above specs are incorrect, was really hoping for a QHD screen.

Better battery life without it, the majority of users won't notice the difference.

I believe the Oppo r11 only has 1080 display. But I'd think with innards being upgraded I'd also like to see higher screen resolution this time around.

Unless you're going to use VR it's only going to have a detrimental effect; otherwise enjoy the extra battery life for no image quality loss.

I always use my S7 in 1080p, imo there really isn't much of a difference.
