Amidst the buzz surrounding the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, the news about the forthcoming OnePlus 5 has captured attention. Known for their impeccable design, top-notch specifications, and affordable pricing, OnePlus has stayed true to its ‘Never Settle’ philosophy. The anticipation is high for the release of their next flagship device, the OnePlus 5.
OnePlus 5 Device: Dual-Edge Display, 23MP Camera, 256GB Storage – Overview
The omission of the OnePlus 4 model in favor of the OnePlus 5 is attributed to cultural beliefs in China where the number ‘4’ is associated with bad luck and death. A similar trend was followed by Samsung with the Galaxy S8 series due to cultural superstitions in South Korea. The mystery behind the naming convention of the OnePlus 5 will be resolved in the upcoming weeks.
The latest reports suggest that the OnePlus 5 will feature a dual-edged curved display reminiscent of the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. Powering the device will be Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 chipset, manufactured using a 10nm process for enhanced speed and energy efficiency. With the Snapdragon 821 already utilized in the OnePlus 3T, the 835 chipset will offer a boost in performance. Due to Samsung’s early access, OnePlus is likely to receive the chipset later in the year.
Expected to offer either 6GB or 8GB of RAM, the OnePlus 5 continues to push boundaries in smartphone specifications. The device will likely retain a base storage of 64GB with a possible 256GB variant, although user-friendly features like microSD card support are awaited. The inclusion of a 23MP rear camera, coupled with a 16MP front camera, promises stellar photography performance.
Boasting a 4,000mAh battery and running Oxygen OS based on the latest Android version, the OnePlus 5 is anticipated to launch in the third quarter following the recent OnePlus 3T release. The tech community eagerly awaits further details on the OnePlus 5, promising exciting updates on this future flagship device.
