No one is addressing the Glass protection issue.

Gorilla Glass is anti scratch only and not anti break ..

we need new technology to address this. maybe a special kind of Plastic that is anti scratch and will not break.

Gorilla Plastic anyone ?

      NO I meant it is finally different from the R15 PR0

                      finally it worth buying
                      after the notch teaser and the heavy haters attack ONEPLUS realized that they need to do some thing new instead of making an OPPO R15 with a flagship SoC and a fancy logo

                            Yeah because hidding something is a great solution. It's like hearing weird noices in your car but turning up the music so you couldn't hear them. Haha fantastic.

                              Mexx, 17 Apr 2018As i know OnePlus 5 could go in the water with no problems.... moreNone of those videos give you updates 3-4 months after the water tests. Wonder why ;-)

                                  Anonymous, 17 Apr 2018It's glass back and it has waterproofSo you will pay the bill for a new phone, if op6 dies after swimming and diving with it? Water resistant.

                                        But as said - you are right, ethanol would not make any damage to electronics.
