@andreasduess - On my old iPhone 3G back in the day you could dual boot Android and iOS. It was like Android 2.2 and it ran horribly on iOS, lol. It was awesome.
@rafyasarmatta The whole launch event was precise and to the point without any bragging. They accepted their faults with their previous version and showed the feedback from the community all along(Need not to say, they acted on it). I liked the format of the whole event. In my opinion it was very honest from their side which is rare to see in these days of pompous launch events.

Hey Product Hunters!
Â
I’d like to share with you the OnePlus 5- the newest and most complete flagship from our young global company.Â
Â
OnePlus’ mission isn't just to build a better smartphone, but to constantly improve the user experience. To succeed, our smartphones are based on a deep understanding of users’ needs with every last detail refined to ensure it looks beautiful, feels great and performs just the way you want it to.Â
Â
And so with the OnePlus 5 you get one of the highest resolution dual-camera systems available on any smartphone, with a 16 MP main camera supported by a 20 MP telephoto camera for stunning portrait shots and clearer zoom.Â
Â
Packing the latest Octa-core Snapdragonâ„¢ 835 processor the OnePlus 5- with up to 8 GB RAM- is 17% more power efficient than the previous generation allowing you to run a large number of apps simultaneously without a single second of lag.Â
Â
However, following the success of the OnePlus 3T, the OP5 will be sure to retain its predecessor’s hallmark dash charge technology. Giving users a day’s power in half an hour the new device now boasts a 20% better battery life due to its more power efficient hardware and software.
Â
Hope you guys like it and would love to hear your thoughts!
Â
NeverSettle!

@ptrkcsk thanks for the feedback! We are currently focussing our energies on the OnePlus 5. However, throughout the design process there was obsessive attention to detail and after 100 physical prototypes we believe we arrived at a final design which is functionally slim and a practical size 😄

@tom_downs95 hi tom, do you know any representative for the company in the UAE that I could get in touch with concerning the OnePlus5?
@tom_downs95 it's been a week since I'm using One Plus 5, before this I had a One Plus 1 so it's a major upgrade! Im a big one plus fan, I absolutely love this device. As a smartphone instagrammer I would like to know the procedure to get a chance to have my picture on the welcome note that comes in the package! I'm aware of #Shotononeplus I would be willing to give my feedback as time goes with this phone. Thanks!

@getpeid just curious, why did you decide on this design? The Verge's amazing exclusive showed many other prototypes with different designs (I liked the white one that looked like the 1+1), but you picked one that looks like a reference design from your parent company, Oppo. I don't think it looks like a iPhone, but the similarities to the Oppo r11 are really hard to ignore. Any thoughts?

@zduboss thanks for the question! During the design process it took more than 100 physical iterations to get the OnePlus 5 both functionally slim and visually stunning. While there may be some similarities design-wise on a general level, the OnePlus 5 and OPPO R11 are very different when you look closely. For instance the OP5 follows the design philosophy of previous devices with the Horizon Line. Also, on a spec level the phones are completely different 😄
One thing I've wondered about this line: who is it for? Are you trying to get defectors from Samsung/Apple? Or is it moreso new people to smartphones? Geeks?

Thanks @tarungangwani - OnePlus was started three years ago for a simple reason, to build an Android phone we ourselves would want to use. Our mission is simply to share the best technology with the world and we hope to reach as many people as possible!
Honest question: I noticed you took shots at Apple and the headphone jack and then released a phone that looks identical to their iPhone 7 Plus. Don't get me wrong, I love the OnePlus phones. But I found that really ironic.

@iamjmw Every phone looks the same, they're all black block rectangles, no?

@livejamie - Lg G6, Pixel, Galaxy S8, Moto G5. These are all flagship Android phones that have their own unique design and style. The OnePlus (again, the phone looks dope) has nearly the identical design of the 7 Plus. It will always be the "Oh is that the new iPhone" phone. And my problem isn't so much that it's an iPhone copycat, but rather that they chose to take shots at Apple during their keynote while releasing their iPhone clone. Again, it's a killer phone, but they aren't really competing on price anymore so they should distinguish themselves by design instead and they aren't.

Oh! It's an iPhone, but with less security, privacy and more malware. No thank you.
Honest, thought - I don't know but I didn't like the design. If you would give me OnePlus 3/3T and OnePlus 5 as an option to choose, I will go for OnePlus 3/3T.
