    Anonymous, 05 Jul 2017They're both good on their own terms. I don't recall seeing... moreFor me it's okay to follow iPhone 7 design and back panel's made of cuz the back panel on iPhone 7 is great quality, just only the design, looks same but 3.5mm audio jack removal is one of the unacceptable things to many people (not only me). Just let the iPhone alone who made a devices with no audio jack. IP68 certification includes the lessen risk to damage audio jack like what've been Samsung and Sony did

      AnonD-441601, 05 Jul 2017If i would like best phone i will buy Vertu or Gresso. Appl... moreLol you talking about games now? Have you got any idea why all the big games debut in iPhone and come to android very late? iPhones and games go hand in hand. Not only games but all apps perform better in iPhones, you accept it or not, that's the fact. I can confirm that being an iPhone 6s and Galaxy S6E user. Yes battery gets down very fast if we play gfx intense games but they neither lag or stutter during game play nor show any delay in opening those games. Even GSMA accepts apps and games perform better in iPhones. And now talking about prices: It costs Samsung approximately 307$ to manufacture S8 with a new curved qhd display, SD835/Exynos, ISOCELL camera and all other bits and pieces and OP5's manufacturing costs will be lesser than that considering all the cost cutting it took by reusing 3T's screen(which still costs less to manufacture compared to Samsung's curved screens) and sub par camera, obviously less R&D cost involved in copying an iPhone, we will put that figure at $230/240. And Samsung is a very big company which has a very large R&D department to go with manufacturing business. So if they sell phone for 307$ who will pay all those who worked at factory and R&D? In that case OnePlus should also sell you at the said price of $240. Then why they are selling at 500-550$? Prices of S8 and iPhones are exorbitant accepted but thing is your OnePlus is also reaching that price range slowly with $550 8gb OP5. Every year apple prices its basic iPhones at $649 Hardly $100 more than your OP5.

            OnePlus 5: Cause of display errors found during scrolling.

            Users of the OnePlus 5 complain about a strange behavior of the display. When scrolling through web pages and apps, it appears to be a kind of distortion of the content. As reported by XDA Developers, a manufacturer's design decision might be responsible for this effect.

            The OnePlus 5 has the same display as the OnePlus 3T. So how can it be that the scrolling with the newer and even more powerful smartphone comes to the described presentation error, which you can also see in the video under this article? According to the report, there is quite a difference between the two smartphone screens: one of them is upside down.

            No update or exchange planned

            According to the developer, the firmware of the OnePlus 5 contains a code line that is responsible for turning the contents of the display 180 degrees. This is obviously necessary because OnePlus has installed the "wrong" screen. As a result, the OnePlus 5 reappears as any other smartphone. However, a side-effect of the first twisted and then corrected alignment appears to be the unsightly display error during scrolling. According to XDA Developers, this effect could even be simulated with other smartphones, especially with OLED devices. For this, only the automatic alignment should be activated and the corresponding smartphone turned upside down.

            Looking at the internal design of the OnePlus 5, OnePlus makes the impression that OnePlus has rotated the screen to provide the camera sensor of the dual camera. The is now approximately where the OnePlus 3T still the display controller can be found. As the manufacturer said recently, users should not expect a software fix for the problem, or assume that devices with this effect would be exchanged by OnePlus because it is a "natural behavior".

            01 July 2017 - 12:00

            Incredible but true. OnePlus 5 integrates the display in reverse in its new flagship OnePlus 5. Off Probably not! In our Review, the OnePlus 5 unfortunately so far not very well and this will probably not change so fast. So far, we had pushed the "scroll bug" (jelly effect and stutter) to a little optimized software and hoped that OnePlus would get the handle in the coming weeks under control. Pete Lau said just a few days ago that this was completely normal and would not claim a return or guarantee claim. But as it turns out, the error is not directly in the software optimization, but in the production of the hardware itself.



            According to reports, the firmware of the OnePlus 5 contains a code that ensures that the screen is rotated by 180 °. But why would you want to display the screen around the wrong way? You do not want, because as written above, the entire display is installed upside down and somehow the user must be able to perceive the content then also "correctly" around.

            But why is one building a display in a wrong way? Well, it seems probably as if OnePlus contrary to its own statements but a massive space problem, although the design and the location of the dual cameras that the iPhone 7 had modeled - which should be particularly space-saving. Because of this lack of space OnePlus was probably forced to this rather unorthodox measure.

            A genius kingdom? Not at all! For now the software must actually bring the upside down image in the correct orientation. And this consumes computing capacity, which in turn provides a fraction of the delay and possibly also the "jelly effect" during rapid scrolling.

            It is also unlikely that OnePlus will change this type of production with its new flagship. For this, a corresponding re-design would be necessary, or the development of a new display, which is right around the place. Currently one recycles the display of the OnePlus 3T again. Consequently, only our conclusion from the review underlines. Finger away and choose an alternative. These are enough in the price range of 500-600 € (and even under). Owners of a OnePlus 5 should now quickly decide whether to use their revocation right. Who knows what's coming?

            One thing is certain. The OnePlus 5 is not yet the yellow of the egg and this year should not be another manufacturer completely next to it, then the OnePlus 5 possibly the flop of the year 2017. Pity.

              Try to work for Samsung and you will know manufacturing price is really low compared to price in your casual shop. Samsung earning on everything just because of samsung.
              Truth is OP5 care for their customers and put quality before quantity. Samsung does oposite.
              They have so high production they could never sell everything literary.

                RaghavaZ, 04 Jul 2017"And yes there are couple of apps which can replace OIS" Th... moreIf i would like best phone i will buy Vertu or Gresso. Apple Sony and Samsung are expensive but not a top. Top phone is best hardware for reasonable price.
                OP cost more every year but still is twice as cheap as other brand (you called top) and offers like the same. Apart from some useless extras like IP68 or 4k screen which in 5 inch screen have no use at all unless you buy VR glasses. There is a lot i can continue but i am getting bored by arguing you why when or what.
                Somi said my opinion you said your and if you dosagree i dont care.
                Try Mi6 for 400 and then you will see Samsung Sony or Apple are useless.
                And to Iphone. Try run a game which require phone with a good hardware for example Clash of Lords. I tell you something you will have a delay a big delay. And your battery will be drained in like 40 minutes because stupid apple make phones with super low battery. Iphone 6 even a brand new on low usage last a day. So either carry your powerbank or thin about other phone.
                To be honest if you use your phone for just SMS calling and sometimes you go on internet you literary need like 1-2gb ram. So having an 900 eur Iphone 7 is not needed apart you want looks trendy to other people in streets.

                  xOdd, 04 Jul 2017I won't bother myself arguing with you anymore. You're just... moreMan my english is good enough and for you i dont care what you think. I know i was right you know it too but you are too young to understand because you never lived in era where everything could last 20 years and still was worth the money and apart from worn it was still good to be used for 10 or more years.
                  Now you buy your note 8 samsung or S8 plus and if your phone dont dies after 2 year you will replace it next year for S9 or Note 9 because you want to be trendy.
                  And to your complain had Apple for 2 years. I can tell you ther IOS is complicated all is too much secured always needs password whenever you go whathewer you do and i was tired that i cant use anything hich isnt apple made because if apple dont make SD cards they are just not supported. I was tired when my charging cable breaks and it breaks often i had to buy new and nobody wanted to replace it for me so i had guarantee but i was unable to use it. In my casual shop original apple cable cost 23 eur. And if i put not original one cheap one phone just doesnt cooperate. It only show device is not genuine and can damage your phone dont use it. I got tired of that. Apple is just too pricey and for their price they offer nothing in super B quality.
                  Samsung is same. 400 quids for replacing your broken screen you would never buy that phone again.
                  If you would know how low are manufacturing cost of S8 and S8 plus you will understand companies are here to rob you.
                  To be truth best advertising are people. If someone likes loves and enjoys something he will tell your family and friends. In other words if your best friend have a phone and he is completely satisfied with it you will buy it as well sopaying advertising in newspaper or TV is literary not needed. Just a thrown money. And i dont need to tell you how much cost 30s of advertising in TV.
                  So please keep your stories and tales for kids.

                    Oneplus 5 is worthless, for someone who'd like to waste money and buy phones every year, Amoled displayed phones are aimed for marketing purposes to encourage us to waste our money, small company want larger profits, thats explain the price of $500

                      The pixel density on the XZ Premium is twice as better than this 2013 resolution on Oneplus 5. Crapmoled don't​ last long though. Who would waste $500 on the Oneplus 5 which isn't futureproof and Amoled displays cause burn in after couple of years of use, where Sony phones last longer than their average lifespan.

                      No offense or anything, I mean if you one of those little kid who like to break smartphones, and ask mommy to buy you a new one then go for Amoled displayed phones. Real android users prefer IPS displays and pixel den

                        RaghavaZ, 05 Jul 2017Excluding SD835, Considering the 8GB models price point, yo... moreBro, that's what is making difference, the SD835 is available cheapest as of now with the op5 (MI 6 being not available globally)...

                        Coming to sony xperia XZ, I don't think so that the screen could be any better because op5 has also got the same 1080p screen from the 3T which is already an awesome screen... Also the camera won't be any better, it has got a 23mp camera, more the megapixels, bad the low light performance... Coming to the design, its also made up of mostly plastic ( check jerryrigeverything a YouTube channel which performs durablity tests)

                        The pixel, talking about the 128gb variant, its price is almost double of what op5 is priced... And it misses on the dual camera, also I agree that this is a personal preference but the pixel's design doesn't appeal for the price... It should have got OIS for the price... Also I guess, the oxygen OS has much features than the pixel...

                        The S7, this could be a best competitior for the op5 but its base variant is 32gb and I couldn't find the 64gb on neither one amazon or Flipkart, so comparing it to the 6gb model, there's a straight price difference of 10k and that's for the last generation flagship... Yes, it has got a SD card slot, but as of now dual sim is almost a necessity and it has the hybrid slot...

                        See, I don't want to point pick everything but for the price op5 is really a great device... Every thing has its pros and cons so does op5 has...

                              They should make a 4 inch version of this phone with same processor, RAM, storage and specifications. Not everyone wants a big device like this.

I don't recall seeing any cons on the Mi 6 ? Actually none of the reviews I read mentioned anything about cons here. And Xiaomi went for the "no sd card" for performance related things just your OP did, and the 3.5mm jack to water proof the phone without breaking any of Sony's or Samsung's patents. If there's anyone here who followed Apple it's OnePlus who basically ripped off the iPhone 7 Plus's design.
