1Review, Specification, Rumours, Price and much
more!
2Why not OnePlus 4?
- OnePlus has confirmed that its next smartphone
will be called the OnePlus 5, putting an end to
rumours of the OnePlus 4. - Wait but the last release of OnePlus was OnePlus
3T-- so logically the next in line should be
OnePlus 4!!! - It turns out OnePlus has succumbed to the chinese
superstition of tetraphobia, i.e. a fear of
number four. - Hence, OnePlus has skipped the number 4, and will
launch OnePlus 5 instead.
3OnePlus 5 Design Whats New?
- We don't have a lot of information about the
design of the OnePlus 5. - All we know that it has a dual camera setup , a
metal body and a slightly curved back - There is only an alleged image of the device so
far. - The Authenticity of the photo is in doubt
4- However,just like its predecessors, the OnePlus 5
is expected to have a very simple design that
doesnt stand out from the crowd too much. - Some rumors claim that it will feature a metal
body and look quite similar to the OnePlus 3T,
while others say that the company will opt for a
glass design this year. - Those of you hoping that the device will have a
bezel-less design like the Samsung Galaxy S8 or
LG G6 will probably be disappointed.
5OnePlus 5 specs

QHD resolution. - Powered by the latest Snapdragon 835 chipset.

6OnePlus 5 Release date
- Rumours have been thin on the ground so far, so
its tough to say exactly when the phone will be
revealed and released. Our best evidence comes
from history - OnePlus One April 23, 2014 (reveal)
April 25, 2014 (release) OnePlus 2 July
28, 2015 (reveal) August 11, 2015 (release)
OnePlus 3 June 14, 2016 (reveal) June 14,
2016 (release)
7- Based on those dates, wed expect that the
OnePlus 5 to be announced before July, putting
the launch around the middle of the year and
release date soon after that.
8OnePlus 5 price
- One of the main reasons OnePlus devices are so
popular among consumers is because they offer
great bang for your buck. - The company has been increasing prices with each
new model. The OnePlus 1 started at 299 or 1020
AED, its successor retailed for 329 or 1208 AED,
while the OnePlus 3 was available for 399 or
1470 AED. The current flagship, the 3T, is the
most expensive OnePlus device to date with a
starting price of 439 or 1616 AED. - So its quite possible that the OnePlus 5 will be
more expensive than its predecessor, although
its hard to say how much exactly. Our best guess
is that it wont retail for more than 500 or
1840 AED
9 Should you wait for the OnePlus 5?
- If youre looking for a new Android phone, its
definitely worth waiting- The OnePlus 5 should be
out in a couple of months, and its likely going
to offer flagship-grade specs for a very decent
price. - If youre an iPhone user, the OnePlus 5 could be
a great way to switch- One of the problems with
Apple smartphones is that they always cost a load
of money. If youre looking to move over to
Android, a slightly cheaper but still powerful
OnePlus 5 could be a great way to make the
leap. - If youve got a OnePlus 3T, it might not be worth
upgrading- Although we dont have solid spec
details, its unlikely that the OnePlus 5 will
make any incredible improvements over the already
formidable OnePlus 3T.
