OnePlus 5- The Flagship Killer

Its a beast with modest price.

Pros:

• Excellent Performance
• Good Battery Life
• Dual Camera works very well
• The price!

Cons:

• Design is starting to feel generic
• Still no expandable memory 

Hardware and design

• Snapdragon 835 chipsets
• 3,300mAh batteries

Display and sound

This year, we're working with another 5.5-inch AMOLED panel running at 1080p, with a traditional 16:9 aspect ratio and no curves.

 There's still a single grille drilled into the phone's bottom edge, and it's a little louder than the 3T at maximum volume. The sound is clear.

Software

As always, the OnePlus 5 runs a custom version of Android called OxygenOS (version 4.5 now).

Camera

Most of the time you'll be using the 16-megapixel main camera, which stacks up well against devices like Samsung's Galaxy S8.

Having another, separate 20-megapixel telephoto camera to switch into is very helpful, and it's a pleasant surprise to see OnePlus use a higher-resolution sensor for the zoom camera.

Performance and battery life

OnePlus 5 effortlessly seemed to handle everything I threw at it. Based on my experience and the big, big numbers the phone put up in suite of synthetic benchmarks, I have no doubt that this more expensive version of the OnePlus 5 will be overkill for most people.

Wrap Up

The company built a phone that's very, very hard to dislike. It's blazingly fast, has a surprisingly good camera and excellent battery life. Its version of Android is surprisingly clean, and the price tag means true flagship power won't destroy your wallet.
