I still use my Oneplus 5 with Android Pie 9.0, never failed me, it's a machine. Not to mention the operating system, it's pure Android, it's really worth it.
It's great to find a reviewer with a common sense point in their life. So many people simply run with the pack of "latest and greatest" and forget in real world terms, we can't all go out every other month and buy the new "in phone". To be honest, my daily is my Nokia/Windows 950XL and my back up is my Nokia 1520. I love them. I mean absolutely love them and have had zero issues with either. Thank you for doing and thing of the "little people" and making this review. I am in the hunt for a solid Android phone for app reasons only and this made my list. Great job....
true. most people with thelatest iphone couldnt take a decent picture if their life depended on it and only use it for facebook and instagram. ive been using budget phones for about 4 years on cricket. peoiple laugh but my fuckin bill is 110 a month for 4 lines and it does the same shit as theirs.
Trust me, Buy it 8Gig or 6Gig doesnt matter, i have a OnePlus 5, i have like 10 app running at the same time always everyime everyday, and it never heatsapp, unless super duper 3D games(Which im against to play on phones).. im planning to buy it again another one.... It is the most fastest and strongest(performance wise) and very much supported phone out there in the developer world as well as common man world.... the later ones like 6 and 6t are making their hands dirty like other phones in the market, no headphone, no fast finger print. stupid shitty notch, SUPER DUPER USELESS bazeless big screens....
I'm still using my OnePlus 5 since release day! Absolutely love it and it has been my favorite phone that I've ever owned! I'm waiting for the OnePlus 7!
I still love my OnePlus 5! I actually JUST switched back to it a week ago after dropping my Pixel 2XL on concrete. I'm still just super impressed by how smooth it is and how nice it feels.
I've had it since it came out & I gotta say it holds up extremely well I'd say it's even better than some phones that have come out this year! Seriously though the phone is absolutely magical! Everything about this phone from the charging speed the screen to even to camera believe it or not are all in the wonderfully wrapped little package. You can do so much with this phone seriously it's incredible. Oh right I also forgot to say it even has the update for Android Pie!!!!
@@melancholiadementia I use this phone for UA-cam clash Royale twitch WhatsApp Instagram Snapchat and it lasts easily a day. But the thing about this phone is even if your battery is low just plug it for a few minutes and it can last easily for simple tasks.

I bought the softgold Op5 in September 2017 and fast forward this phone still has the performance!It doesn't lag,the camera is pretty good!(excellent in natural lights nd mediocre in artificial lighting),fast updates from OP and much more. I dont see myself upgrading for quite a few months(it doesn't feel like an old device).And the main reason I love this device is that it is super light and very thin!! And the dash charging powers up the phone in no time!This is one of the best VFM devices ever from OnePlus.
I’ve been watching videos of smartphone reviews because I lost my LG G5 recently which I have used nearly for 2 years. I watched a lot of Xiaomi videos since the price of midrange phones of it are close to how much I can afford. Hopefully I’m lucky to get the free giveaways, it could help me so much. New sub
@@keifermatthew I fell asleep on the bus and woke up with my phone gone and my headphones still in my ears. Yeaaah I don't know how that happened either without me noticing. At least it gave me a reason to upgrade to the Oneplus 6T
That sucks, I work in an Emergency Room people forget them, if they're one of the major carriers, which I drive past on the way home, I just drop it off at a corporate store, they will get it back to their owner. People have no morals.
OnePlus 5 user here, I got it 2 days after the release, and ever since I’ve been using it as my daily device. The speed is still fantastic, it makes it very useable to this day. The camera isn’t as good as the latest smartphone cameras, but don’t forget, it has a built in pro mode, which makes low light pictures possible, I’ve been able to capture the starts with this camera. Overall, if you can get it for 250-300 just do it
The LG G6 is also a great value, you can get a brand new one for around $200, it has dual cameras, tiny bezels, its water resistant. You can get a used one for around $120 or a brand new one for around $200
Same here, got it at launch and I'm usually a phone hoar and change every 4-6 months but no device released since I got this 5T makes me want to switch.
After five years of using my OnePlus 5, am finally moving on to a new phone. I just didnt feel the need to change my phone, I played games, watched videos, movies, did anything and everything on this phone, I dropped it like a million times on accident and for almost 2 years I had it with no cover, it survived every drop until a couple month back when I dropped it and screen on the bottom left got cracked. Everything in the phone is still functional, I can still press the button on the bottom left of the screen with no problem. The fingerprint sensor hasnt been perfect, but after 5 years of using the phone I cant really complain about that. The camera cover on the back came out, so the lenses got burned from the sun and damaged since I didnt put a case on the phone nor did I replace the glass cover protecting it. I saw this video while watching an old jerry rig everything about the oneplus 5 and I really appreciate that people out there know how good this phone was. Thank you Mrwhosetheboss for such a good video.
Bought one myself from a friend for 275$ in May 2018 under warranty. It's going solid and I don't think there's a need for me to upgrade for atleast 1 more year.. My next device will be a Samsung with headphone jack.

Imo there isn't any problem with having bezels atleast it doesn't have a notch. But wouldn't it be wise to consider Previous Gen flagship over 2-3 Gen old flagships or we can consider today's midrangers over them(there are many midrangers which can give you best value for your money) just my opinion
Keep quite for sometime you idiot . Well your talking about the notch for this phone and your own you tube channel is about the poco f1 which has a freaking huge notch.it feels so annoying to see you in each an every vide.
Your comment makes sense only in india and not every country. In India you can get great midrangers for 16-17k like Max Pro M2 6GB variant or the Oppo K1 which are way better than the OnePlus 5, but those phones aren't available in other countries.
@Atharva Naik Well I rarely reply to anyone but as I got the notification of your reply I thought why not answer to this. First of all I hate the "notch" whether it may be on Poco only or any other phones out there. But other than notch I guess I don't have to tell much about Poco F1 ;) And secondly if you are annoyed of my comments the only solution is ignore em (I'm doing the same with hate replies) or live with them I'll not stop commenting coz I'm not hurting anybody's feeling nor their opinions by my comments (Most of the time I make people laugh) And for some other replies here, *yet I didn't quit uploading videos on my channel* . I'll be starting uploading em soon enough (Just taking some time to learn the things)
I still use the OnePlus 5 I bought back in 2017 and it still runs smooth as ever. The only complaint that I have, after the latest Android 10 update a couple of weeks ago, the battery has started to drain heavily.Then again,It really isn't much of a complaint for a phn that's almost 3 years old.
3 Years on row. Still my one plus 5 worth every penny till date. It never disappointed me. Just getting battery backup less with time but still good for a whole day on normal usase. A combination of beauty and beast till date. ❤️
Oneplus 3T is a better deal in my mind if your not worried about the camera. It has almost identical specs, snapdragon 821, 6GB of ram, 64GB of storage and a 1080p AMOLED screen, and of course my favorite feature dash charge. I got mine for £120.
@@twanheijkoop6753 bro wtf , IDK bro but I m talking about screen on time, 3-4 hours is sufficient for me coz it lasts a full working day for me, agreed it's not great, but hey with pixel gcam its way better than many 2019 mid ranger phones
Phones don't emit ionising radiation you're not gonna get cancer from a smartphone. You're more at risk of cancer going on an Aeroplane, getting an X Ray or smoking .
Hell yah!!! I got the 1+5t and have had it since launch. Still going strong and I feel absolutely no need to get a new one. It's just as good as day one (except for some scratches). The camera might not be as good as others but I'm not a photographer and it serves me well. %100 recommend, thanks for doing the phone justus.
Proud to be 1+5 user i am using it for 2 years still it have no issues on performance and battery i hope i would use this phone for again 2 years it value for 💰
ever since the first one plus came out,i was astonished at how much i loved the design and the way they sell their phones.Its not common to see a company actually listening to their consumers....It would be a dream come true if one day i can use this phone as my daily driver!!
Bought mine in November 2017 for $380 brand new and still rocking hard to this day. Installed custom rom Pixel Experience Android 10 with latest security patches and features and it's buttery smooth! Also custom Kernel and with Google Cam 7.3 modded it takes awesome photos in daylight and also in night with Astrophotography etc And when Oneplus releases Android 10 now in May/June, it'll be updated again, even better! I think this was the true last flagship killer from Oneplus. Nowadays their phones are almost as expensive as the other flagships. Gonna go with Xiaomi or Realme next year. That's were the sweet spot performance/price/quality is now.
Had this phone for 2 years in july on contract. Dropped it more than a 100 times (no exageration) and the most its got is a tiny crack in the top corner, not even on the screen. I havd the 128gb 8gb ram model which is even better. Never lags. Battery lasts a full day. Installed Viper4android on it which gave the speaker a massive audio quality boost
which one should one go for:- poco f1 (new) oneplus 5 (refurbished) i am curious bcoz i brought a poco for me at 200$ (in exchange to my previous phone which was a samsung j7)
Great phone I've had my OP5 since about 3 mo after they came out! Everything still works perfectly. That 64 gb is actually UFS storage its extremely fast and OnePlus overclocked this 835 by the way
OnePlus 5 user here, mine's 8gb RAM and 128gb storage. This phone is still amazing from the day I bought it, it has been the best phone purchase I've ever made; the 2nd best purchase was my beloved OnePlus 3 that I gave to my dad and he's still rocking it and it's good as new. Extremely fast, reliable, great battery life, good camera, good screen, great storage, headphone jack, insanely fast front fingerprint scanner and software up to date. OnePlus really is an insanely great company that delivers high quality products. I'm amazed at the reliability of my phone and my next phone will be a OnePlus
That's the type of video I love! I love to see older phones being reviewed because a few years ago every phone looked different now everything is just a glass sandwich with a notch.
Had mine for 2 years now and buttery smooth no need for an upgrade atm waiting for some to be massive step up. Plus got over 6 hours of screen on time yesterday so battery is still great
20 months later after its launch and using since 1 August 2017, still loving it (Samsung phones, S2, S4, feels sluggish after 1 year), still holds a full day's charge (S4 needed to be charged at 3/4 day, then 1 year later, 1/2 day), still only used 50% of 128GB storage (woohoo, ditched the S4 64GB SD card, which was full after 1 year), not promoting a fastfood chain, I AM Loving IT! it's the best phone and user experience i had, since Nokia 3210!
This is why I love LOVE! your channel..... YOU READ MY MIND. this is the exact video subject I wanted and was going to settle for a modern mid-range. But your experience with this phone proves even this phone is better than one of those.
I would reconmend the lg v20. It goes for less than a $100. It has a replaceable battery so if you get it with a lot of battery wear you can replace it for 6 dollars.
Still using OnePlus 5 from July 2017 , working same as on day one . Love it.. still can't find any good reason to go for new phone in 2019. #gotHeadphone jack #fasterfingerprint scanner#physical buttons for navigation#still great battery life#latest android😍😍
I bought my OnePlus 5T in November 2018 and it was only £280 refurbished from GiffGaff. Considering it was the highest spec model with 128gb Storage and 8GB RAM, it was an amazing deal and functions amazing. I'd honestly say it's one of the best phones you can buy right now if you want as little compromises as possible. Its fast, even if it's the last gen Snapdragon chip because the software is so good and it's on Android 9. The camera is amazing, especially in pro mode and when taking RAW images that you later alter in Snapseed or Adobe lightroom. Sure Google pixel has better software and Huawei has better hardware, but you can download Gcam and get much better pictures on your OP devices of you want and it already has a solid set of hardware which even if they aren't the best, can be made up for with the custom software you can get.
Great. I like the fact that you care about all smartphones. A lot of youtubers only talk about last flagship, which is cool but not interesting for a lot of people who look for value. However don’t you think 5t is more interesting ?
@@user-yz6qo7xh2f I got it from www.techinthebasket.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=oneplus+6 here if it doesn't load it's because you'll need a VPN for UK
I really like the OnePlus 5 because of how fast it is and how cheap I got mine for, I found mine on eBay for $145, it was used with some scratches on it but everything still worked perfectly.
Despite the lack of camera quality this phone still hold up with newer flagships nowdays... I've been use it since release..no problem at all... Watching this video is really makes me realize this phone gotten older I think I'll change when oneplus release oneplus 7t ,🙄

Very rare to see youtubers speak about an older phone - which still holds a great value. Good vid :)
Bought this close to release date and it still performs like brand new, to this day!
Imo there isn't any problem with having bezels atleast it doesn't have a notch.
But wouldn't it be wise to consider Previous Gen flagship over 2-3 Gen old flagships or we can consider today's midrangers over them(there are many midrangers which can give you best value for your money) just my opinion
@@vijay996_ yeah this guy is everywhere
Keep quite for sometime you idiot . Well your talking about the notch for this phone and your own you tube channel is about the poco f1 which has a freaking huge notch.it feels so annoying to see you in each an every vide.
@@vijay996_ yup u right LMAO 🤣
Your comment makes sense only in india and not every country. In India you can get great midrangers for 16-17k like Max Pro M2 6GB variant or the Oppo K1 which are way better than the OnePlus 5, but those phones aren't available in other countries.
@Atharva Naik Well I rarely reply to anyone but as I got the notification of your reply I thought why not answer to this.
First of all I hate the "notch" whether it may be on Poco only or any other phones out there. But other than notch I guess I don't have to tell much about Poco F1 ;) And secondly if you are annoyed of my comments the only solution is ignore em (I'm doing the same with hate replies) or live with them I'll not stop commenting coz I'm not hurting anybody's feeling nor their opinions by my comments (Most of the time I make people laugh)
And for some other replies here,
*yet I didn't quit uploading videos on my channel* . I'll be starting uploading em soon enough (Just taking some time to learn the things)
Proud OnePlus 5 users leave a like👍
I still use the OnePlus 5 I bought back in 2017 and it still runs smooth as ever. The only complaint that I have, after the latest Android 10 update a couple of weeks ago, the battery has started to drain heavily.Then again,It really isn't much of a complaint for a phn that's almost 3 years old.
3 Years on row. Still my one plus 5 worth every penny till date. It never disappointed me. Just getting battery backup less with time but still good for a whole day on normal usase. A combination of beauty and beast till date. ❤️
Oneplus 3T is a better deal in my mind if your not worried about the camera. It has almost identical specs, snapdragon 821, 6GB of ram, 64GB of storage and a 1080p AMOLED screen, and of course my favorite feature dash charge. I got mine for £120.
Oneplus 3T vibration feedback feels like a phone from 2009 and battery is laughable.
@@DoniStunts no it's not, gives 3-4 hours of screen on time
@@bastion5956 that's pretty bad imho, 8 til 12 hours is normal now
@@twanheijkoop6753 bro wtf , IDK bro but I m talking about screen on time, 3-4 hours is sufficient for me coz it lasts a full working day for me, agreed it's not great, but hey with pixel gcam its way better than many 2019 mid ranger phones
You can't play games properly.. pubg has lags. It's irritating..
Why it isn't? Radiation emission levels are a tad too high as compared to the competition...
Apart from that.. a total Snacc
As long as it is certified, it's safe 😁
Bro smartphone emmit radio wave and they are harmless until you're living under a cell tower
@@eshanahmed8827 even being under a cell tower is fine. They only emit non-ionizing radiation which is completely harmless.
@@NateSmith see some know this most of the when I say this to people they call me insane
Phones don't emit ionising radiation you're not gonna get cancer from a smartphone. You're more at risk of cancer going on an Aeroplane, getting an X Ray or smoking .
Hell yah!!! I got the 1+5t and have had it since launch. Still going strong and I feel absolutely no need to get a new one. It's just as good as day one (except for some scratches). The camera might not be as good as others but I'm not a photographer and it serves me well. %100 recommend, thanks for doing the phone justus.
Ive the OnePlus 2 and it is such a tank. Still runs like when I got it.
Me too....
I'm Rocking the OnePlus 3, Blazes through Lineage OS
Watching this on my OnePlus 5 which I got in 2017. No regrets!
Same here!
Watching on my OnePlus 5 ! 😋
Watching on my OnePlus 5 8/128 midnight Black, simply beautiful and PowerFul 😍😍
Proud to be 1+5 user i am using it for 2 years still it have no issues on performance and battery i hope i would use this phone for again 2 years it value for 💰
OnePlus 5T also available at that price and it is so good. Hit like OnePlus fans.........
Just get the 5T, it's what I have and still works great
5t is much better
Agreed, the 5T is probably even better value.
ever since the first one plus came out,i was astonished at how much i loved the design and the way they sell their phones.Its not common to see a company actually listening to their consumers....It would be a dream come true if one day i can use this phone as my daily driver!!
Bought mine in November 2017 for $380 brand new and still rocking hard to this day. Installed custom rom Pixel Experience Android 10 with latest security patches and features and it's buttery smooth! Also custom Kernel and with Google Cam 7.3 modded it takes awesome photos in daylight and also in night with Astrophotography etc
And when Oneplus releases Android 10 now in May/June, it'll be updated again, even better!
I think this was the true last flagship killer from Oneplus. Nowadays their phones are almost as expensive as the other flagships. Gonna go with Xiaomi or Realme next year. That's were the sweet spot performance/price/quality is now.
Realme x2 pro is a great option.
Watching this video on my OnePlus 5.
Who's watching on OP 5???(me)
Had this phone for 2 years in july on contract. Dropped it more than a 100 times (no exageration) and the most its got is a tiny crack in the top corner, not even on the screen. I havd the 128gb 8gb ram model which is even better. Never lags. Battery lasts a full day. Installed Viper4android on it which gave the speaker a massive audio quality boost
which one should one go for:-
poco f1 (new)
oneplus 5 (refurbished)
i am curious bcoz i brought a poco for me at 200$ (in exchange to my previous phone which was a samsung j7)
Op5 owner here :)
I have one and am watching this vid on right now
Me too bro
Real videos like this are rare gems! Keep it up Arun!
Great phone I've had my OP5 since about 3 mo after they came out! Everything still works perfectly. That 64 gb is actually UFS storage its extremely fast and OnePlus overclocked this 835 by the way
Still on my Oneplus 3
Still fast af🔥
Using OnePlus 3 still happy
OnePlus 5 user here, mine's 8gb RAM and 128gb storage.
This phone is still amazing from the day I bought it, it has been the best phone purchase I've ever made; the 2nd best purchase was my beloved OnePlus 3 that I gave to my dad and he's still rocking it and it's good as new.
Extremely fast, reliable, great battery life, good camera, good screen, great storage, headphone jack, insanely fast front fingerprint scanner and software up to date.
OnePlus really is an insanely great company that delivers high quality products. I'm amazed at the reliability of my phone and my next phone will be a OnePlus
Watching this video today in 2021 on my OnePlus 5. It still rocks !!! 💥
I found a deal that is really good. An oneplus 5t for 200€
Where
forgot the pocophone
Yep, using mine on Rosso Red rn 👍🏻
The plastic is not worth it
the pocophone is in a different price range
If someone hands me both the Poco and a op5 I'd rather choose the op5.... Don't . Even . Try . Arguing
lol. if you're budget is tight. you'll find poco more tempting. heck if someone will hand me iphone xs I'd accept it in an instant.
This is a very good point; just cause it's old doesn't mean it's obsolete!
I'm still using oneplus one with custom android 9 ROM, still working great today ! Incredible
In India it still costs about 500$ . Check Flipkart
Yup😂
Third party sellers always hype up the price.
That sucks. :'(. At least you guys have options though!
Amazon 300$
@@crypto_pro300$ on amazon.com not on amazon.in .
Watching in my oneplus 5😍
Bro who is the performance compared as before!
had my oneplus 5t since launch and its still going strong
That's the type of video I love! I love to see older phones being reviewed because a few years ago every phone looked different now everything is just a glass sandwich with a notch.
Wait.. my OnePlus 5 has 8gb Ram
It was because there where two versions right?
128gb + 8Gb Ram and 64gb + 6gb Ram
Same thing for me, mine has 8GB RAM but it also has 128 GB, so I guess that the 64GB has 6GB RAM
watching on both my OnePlus 6 & OnePlus 5 :)
Feels happy to actually watch it on my OnePlus 5 2 years old phone but still a beast no complaints .
Had mine for 2 years now and buttery smooth no need for an upgrade atm waiting for some to be massive step up. Plus got over 6 hours of screen on time yesterday so battery is still great
You can better act as a HERO in any movie 😊
I am not lying....but my first fav flagship phone was one plus 5t.
Why would you lie?
Oneplus ist flagship killer mate 👍😁 I have it myself, Oneplus 5t star wars edition 8gb 128
My first "flagship" was the Ericsson 337 😉
I got my OnePlus 5 on August 2017. It's still going strong and I don't have any qualms to stop using it anytime soon.
20 months later after its launch and using since 1 August 2017, still loving it (Samsung phones, S2, S4, feels sluggish after 1 year), still holds a full day's charge (S4 needed to be charged at 3/4 day, then 1 year later, 1/2 day), still only used 50% of 128GB storage (woohoo, ditched the S4 64GB SD card, which was full after 1 year), not promoting a fastfood chain, I AM Loving IT!
it's the best phone and user experience i had, since Nokia 3210!
Their's always this salty poco fanboy who comments “pocophone is the best” on every tech video
All that is fine but poco is the best
Poco phones have good hardware performance but camera quality is not good.
Pocodopo
@@MohitGupta208 NFC? Ever used it on your poco? ;) Ah, shure, you don't have one..
@@LUFFY09789 you could slap a pixel 3 camera app in it though.
Oneplus 5 is small ?
152,7 x 74,7 x 7,25 mm.
My s9 is : 147.7 x 68.7 x 8.5 and this almost to big for me.
My OnePlus 5 actually has android 9 already, not even beta. It asked to update by itself. 19 months in and still in perfect shape!
This is why I love LOVE! your channel..... YOU READ MY MIND. this is the exact video subject I wanted and was going to settle for a modern mid-range. But your experience with this phone proves even this phone is better than one of those.
I would reconmend the lg v20. It goes for less than a $100. It has a replaceable battery so if you get it with a lot of battery wear you can replace it for 6 dollars.
I will recommend LG v30!!
I'm still using OnePlus 3T
My friend still uses his op 3, rock solid performance.
Bought one of these recently. Only considered it thanks to your video. I love it, thank you!
Still using OnePlus 5 from July 2017 , working same as on day one . Love it.. still can't find any good reason to go for new phone in 2019. #gotHeadphone jack #fasterfingerprint scanner#physical buttons for navigation#still great battery life#latest android😍😍
So $370 is considered cheap?
He mean refurbish
Would you recommend a current midrange or a slightly older flagship?
current midrage
go with slightly older flagship
None of them
older flagship are alwayes better
Older flagship.
I bought my OnePlus 5T in November 2018 and it was only £280 refurbished from GiffGaff. Considering it was the highest spec model with 128gb Storage and 8GB RAM, it was an amazing deal and functions amazing. I'd honestly say it's one of the best phones you can buy right now if you want as little compromises as possible. Its fast, even if it's the last gen Snapdragon chip because the software is so good and it's on Android 9. The camera is amazing, especially in pro mode and when taking RAW images that you later alter in Snapseed or Adobe lightroom. Sure Google pixel has better software and Huawei has better hardware, but you can download Gcam and get much better pictures on your OP devices of you want and it already has a solid set of hardware which even if they aren't the best, can be made up for with the custom software you can get.
Great. I like the fact that you care about all smartphones. A lot of youtubers only talk about last flagship, which is cool but not interesting for a lot of people who look for value. However don’t you think 5t is more interesting ?
And the Nokia 8?
Same specs and same price, not?
What is the difference?
You can get a 1+6 for £330
I'd argue that it doesn't offer a proportionally better experience

From where?
@@user-yz6qo7xh2f I got it from www.techinthebasket.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=oneplus+6 here if it doesn't load it's because you'll need a VPN for UK
I really like the OnePlus 5 because of how fast it is and how cheap I got mine for, I found mine on eBay for $145, it was used with some scratches on it but everything still worked perfectly.
OnePlus 5 is the best phone ever, using it since july 2017 and still a beast in march 2020. Never faced any issues yet!
But it doesn't fit your videos.
Not a big issue
It just letter boxes it's no big deal.
2:02 he dropped in Gatka🤦
Despite the lack of camera quality this phone still hold up with newer flagships nowdays... I've been use it since release..no problem at all...
Watching this video is really makes me realize this phone gotten older
I think I'll change when oneplus release oneplus 7t ,🙄
OnePlus 5 owner looks at OnePlus 6T and says gonna wait for OnePlus 9 :D
They just released the OnePlus 8 and 8t designs ....punchhole camera on screen 😖🙄, definitely waiting for op9, or banging blackberry
