    Terrible Low light photos, and pretty disappointing photos, in any light.
    At best, they look fine, if viewed at 25% resolution or less.
    No OIS still???

    2017 is mostly about the camera and then everything else. One Plus is in la la land, if it believes otherwise.

                1. Battery on OP5 wasn't enough for a day, OP5T with a bigger screen with same capacity battery will surely be a wallhugger.Sad
                2. No IP rating.Sad
                3.Price is kept same. Happy
                1+2+3= Sad

                          Vic4BBM, 17 Nov 2017Apple had a short time affair with BBK and one+5t was born.... moreOppo R11 and R11s are their older brothers quite literally. OPPO is the parent company and OP5 uses the same body as R11 series for their phones. The One Plus One was based on Find 7.

                            Wow, some improvements with bigger camera bumps? Not hating OnePlus but seriously they can do better, look at the original OnePlus 5 and this, the camera bump. I choose OnePlus 5 over this for the thinner camera bump, but for the rest I may need to consider if I want to buy

                              Anonymous, 16 Nov 2017Interesting.... But I'll wait (and pay more) for the U11plu... moreJust looking at the pixel size of camera specs I know this OP5T would struggle on dim light situation. Anything below 1.4uM is inadequate, no matter how bright the aperture is...

                              Take example LG V30 with f1.6 and 1.1uM, their photos comparison on the night shots are below the quality of HTC U11 and Samsung S8.
                              The latter, both using f1.7 and 1.4uM pixel size, altough different Sony sensor but HTC and Samsung opt for bigger pixel.

                              Just give you crucial hints to pick a smartphone camera...
                              You're welcome

                                Nick, 16 Nov 2017Can you cover on the full review if the jelly effect that a... moreAccording to one of the pre-announcement unboxings (in Spanish), this 5T does NOT have the jelly effect when scrolling.

                                I'm also glad to read it shifts like a normal AMOLED screen instead of like the Pixel 2 XL.

                                  Apple had a short time affair with BBK and one+5t was born. And oh, it also had a siblings named OPPO R11s and R11S+. But 1+ claims itself to be different from all above.

                                    Koda, 16 Nov 2017Too common for the price. At that price the S8 has faster m... moreIf $100+USD difference means nothing then I guess “common for the price” is accurate.

                                    Not trying to argue or pick a fight, I agreed for the features mentioned, S8 is better. However, there are also features which 5T is better than S8. Everyone can easily look them up and see for themselves.

                                    For the price, in my opinion, 5T is a very well made. Can’t wait to see what Huawei V10 is gonna bring to the table.

                                      Hahaha, remember that "OnePlus 5T: First Reactions"?
                                      "Wooow what a phone! Amazing! Oh sh*t!"
                                      OnePlus are you serious? What a boorish way to advertise phone.

                                      Those ads camapaigns are useless sh*t. -.-
                                      5T looks like every phone in 2017.

                                        OnePlus 5 owners are so scre*ed right now.
