When considering what phone to get this year, there's no shortage of great options. 2017 has easily been one of the best years ever for smartphones, and with so many phones looking alike and having near identical specs, the end choices seem to be more in favor of price and user experience.

Solid overall design; Great new display and bezel ratios; sRGB and DCI-P3 calibration options; Fingerprint sensor is ultra fast; Face unlock is just as fast as fingerprint scanning; Fantastic official cases; Lots of pack-ins and overall value; 3.5mm audio jack; High quality Bluetooth audio support...

No VR support; display is only 1080p, Not IP rated for water or dust resistance, Single bottom-firing speaker, Portrait mode has taken a step back from the OnePlus 5

very disappointed, not a good fit and it seems like the edge is a more flexible material that was so thin it was sharp. Also, there is a seam between the glass and this flexible edge and I couldn't get that to stay flush with the phone screen leaving a long skinny bubble all along the edge.

The OnePlus 5T is a solid piece of the device for sure with the amazingly optimized processor, improved low-light camera, and a fluid UI. Even though the OnePlus 5T is not a quiet revolutionary upgrade from its predecessor, it does comes with few noteworthy changes on board and the company has...

Large 18:9 display is good; Snappy performance; Good camera; Dash Charging technology

Lacks OIS; Lacks IP certification; No Android Oreo at launch

Overall, the 5T is a healthy addition to the OnePlus family. It takes what we already loved about the OnePlus 5 and refines the design and software a bit, while maintaining a similar sub-$500 price point.

Great display for 1080p Great battery life Competitive price Dash charging is still the fastest on the market OxygenOS is a breath of fresh air Wonderful performance

No official IP certification No expandable storage Sub-par low light camera performance

The price of high-end smartphones has gotten out of control. The iPhone X starts at $1000, while Samsung's Galaxy Note 8 retails at $950, and as much as I like nice things, ponying up that much for a phone is kind of ridiculous.

Bigger screen; headphone jack; still reasonably priced No microSD card slot or wireless charging

No microSD card slot or wireless charging

OnePlus may not have it absolutely spot on in many departments, including camera and a handful of other premium features that the company tends not to offer on its devices. However, there's very little that compares to a OnePlus smartphone when it comes to performance.

OnePlus 5T clearly emerges as the winner in the 30K category without too much of competition there. The smartphone performs like a beast with top notch Qualcomm 835 chipset and shoots pictures like nothing less than DSLR with dual camera setup and pretty awesome low light output with f1.7.

Excellent condition with cellophane instructions in the box and original stickers.New condition. This phone has been discontinued for the notched op6 and I hate notches. If you also hate notches just like me, and can live with a 30 day guarantee rather than a year let NGP be your hard to find phone...

I love this phone coming through a divorce with apple I found this phone very easy to navigate through and love it's features.

A superb display in a trendy aspect ratio, excellent battery life, and fluid Android experience - is that enough to make up for an unimpressive camera performance and the lack of a few key flagship features? That would have been an easy answer if big-name phones hadn't gotten so expensive this year.
