It measures 154.2 x 74.1 x 7.25mm and weighs 153g. The fingerprint scanner is integrated into the home button. Apparently, it takes an average of 180 days to create and perfect a coating of Soft Gold.
In terms of specifications, it is powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor. The new smartphone features a 5.5-inch full HD AMOLED display and runs Android 7.1.1 Nougat with Oxygen OS on top. On the camera front, the OnePlus 5 comes with a dual camera setup. It combines a 16MP wide-angle lens (f/1.7 aperture) with a 20MP telephoto one to produce images with better depth of field. The company claims that the new handset comes with better image stabilization feature too. It is backed by a 3,300mAh battery with Dash Charging support.
The OnePlus 5 with 6GB RAM and 64GB internal storage is priced at Rs 32,999. The 8GB RAM/ 128GB storage variant costs Rs 37,999. While one can always get smartphone covers, it makes sense for such an expensive device to offer more than one color options.
