    The OnePlus 5 review! OnePlus is on a mission to deliver a flagship phone for less cash. The specs on paper look good, especially for folks who want screaming fast performance. However, the "premium mid range" market is now brutally competitive. Can this phone still excite customers with a design "inspired" by a competing phone, and now this pricing is no longer novel? Let's take a closer look at the OnePlus 5!

    You know it's no longer embargo time when PocketNow, Dave Lee, and Austin Evans all drop OnePlus 5 reviews at the same time.

      I think you all are missing the point here -- he meant, they had this phone all this time, but they kept reporting on leaks as if they hadn't seen what it looked like.

    • @mohammedfuadh9096
      @mohammedfuadh9096 7 років тому +6

      I know they had embargos. Reporting on leaks were fine in the case of the s8 or upcoming iphone 8. As they didnt drop the full reviews till about a week after the launch event.
      Reporting on leaks one day and then dropping the full detailed review the next day seemed a little hypocritical.
      But then this is a volume business and they should report on every purported leak to reel in more viewers i guess...

    If ZTE offer the same price as the Axon 7 was last year, then it'll be king of the mid-range market I reckon, OnePlus​ are really pushing their luck with their faithful customers, especially when you consider their customer service.

    • @SomeGadgetGuy

      I'd be surprised if ZTE doesn't price creep too, but it'll all depend on what kind of progress we see.

  • @dan1996DO
    @dan1996DO 7 років тому

    Juan, how would you compare the 5 to "proper" flagships thus far, not considering the price difference. I ask this since in my country, the 3 and 3T are more expensive than an S7 and equalling the G6. Given the current trend, the 5 might cost about 100 dollars more than an S8. I am very much curious to see if it stands on its feet without considering the price, in your opinion.

    I'm gonna keep my 1+3, 6gb of ram alone, probably has me set for at least another 2 years, with or without custom roms *depending on 1+. They made such a great phone, I don't see the justification on upgrading this year..

    I love my Google pixel 5 inch which I had for 6 month tried out the Samsung s8 for a weeks didn't like and sold it . The reception around this OnePlus 5 is good there are some advantages I see it have over the pixel. I like straight forward phone's with smooth response experience inofensive design software and hardware . would you Juan say the one plus 5 is better phone to consider .I should wait for the next gen pixel or Andy Rubin phone the essential

    Looks like the OnePlus 'tick tock' is a real thing. I understand OnePlus's rationale behind the price jump from the 3, but the 5 offers little to justify it. When the competition is offering waterproofing, class leading low light cameras, incredible displays, multiple day battery life, 'PC Modes', and excellent DACs and speakers for slightly more (or in many cases, the same price), how is OnePlus supposed to compete? This isn't terrible like the 2, but it feels like OnePlus is giving up it's biggest advantage.

    I've got one of these and can't believe how fantastic these phones are for the money - There's nothing I miss and I've had water resistant phones, phones w/ wireless charging, expandable storage etc in the past.
    I've never once dropped a phone in water, and I haven't used wireless charging on my past 3 phones that have all had the feature.

    I ordered mine yesterday in the early drop and it gets delivered tomorrow for no extra change. That proves OnePlus is upping its customer service game. I wouldn't have minded an iPhone 7 Plus, but it is £320 more expensive than the OnePlus 5 for the equivalent storage. THREE HUNDRED AND TWENTY QUID. It's the simplest decision I've made on tech this year.

  • @mr559
    @mr559 7 років тому

    This phone is tempting to get. It would be a good budget phone to have, while giving iPhone and Samsung a few more years to innovate more; until they reach that threshold of design, when other phones can reach the standard that these two companies have set.
    2k+ screen resolution, dual cameras, infinite displays, and waterproofing all together in a phone is rather new and I'm sure iPhone and Samsung while expand on this concept more in their next phone iterations.
    Until usb-c thunderbolt, 4k displays becomes cheaper and standard across tv, laptops, monitors, and phones, I think we can still be satisfy with what OnePlus 5 offers.
