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

I was hoping for a edge screen

I'm just happy that the screen is 16:9 and flat.

Flat all the way for me.

+1.

This is going to be a very viable option imo

Anyone else notice Crystal Maze adverts with small "sponsored by Oneplus" in bottom corner of screen?

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

Didn't seem to help the OnePlus 3, battery life wasn't any better than the Axon 7 with an QHD display.

I'd prefer a 2k screen but it's a minor thing I suppose, it's not like I'll be able to see any pixels at normal viewing distances.

Here's hoping there aren't any nasty surprises come release day.

At 5.5" you can see the difference though, it's minor but slightly annoying if they stick with FHD, at the increased price point it's a little harder to accept these kind of compromises .

 

[godinman]

Yeah I guess it depends on price, but for under £500 what would the alternative be? If that camera is as good as people seem to think it will be. The U11 is £659 ain't it?

That's quite a lot, around £420+ then.

I only spent £309 on my OnePlus 3 so not sure how I feel about the price increase just yet.

 

[Sp00n]

...and it'll probably be more like £479 with the usual bs we have to deal with us/uk prices.

 

[kona786]

I hope that's a mistake and a 256GB option is available.

Probably not worth the upgrade though right?

It's funny, we love a tech bargain but the sensible thing to do to save money would be not to upgrade every year

This is true, definitely not worth the upgrade.

Although the good thing about OnePlus phones is they don't lose much value over a year as the starting price wasn't stupidly high.

They even increased the price after Brexit

 

[booyaka]

Still very keen on this.......HTC M9 is getting a bit long in the tooth now......The HTC u11 looks good but very expensive.

I hope the accent colours are true. I like the blue accent.

 

[nade]

Think that is my borderline idea of between both flashy and trashy looking. But I like the midnight black with almost gunmetal or darker gunmetal on last pic bottom left.

Will have to see in a few days.

 

[fretted]

Looks great

 

[xtal191]

Aren't those colours from the case being advertised?
