Description

Like previous OnePlus smartphones, the OnePlus 5 aims to deliver a flagship smartphone experience at a competitive price. It combines tons of memory and the best Snapdragon chip currently available with Google's latest Android version further optimized by OnePlus itself. But the biggest highlight of the OnePlus 5 is its dual camera, allowing you to zoom in without dramatic loss in quality. It also comes with an iPhone-like portrait mode, with background blur for subject emphasis. But with a price between $480 and $540, the OnePlus 5 is also the company's most expensive phone so far.

Best Android phone

Phone owned for less than a year

I have been using this phone for more than 4months now. This phone's customizablity is unmatchable. The oxygen os works so smoothly on this machine. But at the same time I become addicted to the phone.

Excellent continuation of OnePlus 3T which will not disappoint.

Phone owned for less than a month

A couple of days on hand. The design is very good. In the hands of better than in the photo. The battery holds perfectly, even surprised, apparently the new 835 is quite energy efficient. I liked the camera, the sound, the quality of the material. My version 8/128 and black, looks great. Quick charging is good. Let's see how it goes on, while I really like this 1+5! I recommend.

What I like

Magnificent display
Great battery
Beautiful design
Good camera
8 RAM
Comfortable in hand
Super fast charging
The sound of the speaker is better than S8/S8+

What I don't like

A protective bumper is desirable, it can slip out of your hands.
In low light conditions, the camera is not impressive
The paint coating around the camera is damaged

Best Phone I ever had despite the camera ( ex iphone 7, s7 edge user )

Posted: Aug 27, 2017, 8:51 PM

Phone owned for less than 3 months

Almost perfect phone.

What i like:
-Very Loud and clear speaker, as good as what i found in my old find 7a.
-Design is like a better iphone. Great. No need for infinity display
-very fast fingerprint
-no lag, very fluid performance. As fast as the android, as smooth as the iphone.
-Battery Life is very good, 7 hours of SOT with moderate usage and gaming sometimes.
-very fast charging with less heat.
-Reception is far better than the iphone, iphone really sucks at receiving signals ( wifi + cellular both sucks)
-Camera is good, but not great. Still better than yellowish + cartoonish camera from galaxy s7edge
-gaming mode rocks!
-slider notification is awesome

What i dislike:
-speaker position, i often cover it with my hand. Why does it have to be placed in left bottom of the phone? why not in the right?
-camera is good. But not as good as they said.
