Ultra-slim bezels improve on an already winning formula

Edge-to-edge screen update for the OnePlus 5; Excellent battery life; Great camera; Solid performance

Lack of expandable memory

The OnePlus 5T is a very impressive phone. It's got a sleek, premium design, a great dual camera setup, and it's unbelievably fast. With the updated screen and camera, it certainly puts a cat among the Android flagship pigeons. At this price, it's tough to beat. Liked this?

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.

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

OnePlus has certainly made its mark on the high-end smartphone market. The top-end 8GB/128GB OnePlus 5T model offers all the phone most people are likely to need, at considerably lower cost than the market leaders' flagship handsets.

In what's quickly becoming an annual tradtion for the company, OnePlus is back with a new take on a phone it released earlier in the year. For OnePlus, the OnePlus 5T represents a chance to improve on OnePlus 5, a device that was mostly stellar but marred by a less than great camera experience,...

Superlative performance in almost every context; 'Pure' Android with smart and thoughtful added features; Long-lasting battery and excellent fast charging support

Main camera still under performs in low-light; No waterproofing or inductive charging; Does not ship with Android Oreo pre-installed

With a 6-inch display and thinner bezels, the OnePlus 5T is nearly as good as the premium crop of Android phones, but for hundreds less.

Display upgrade brings it in line with premium Android phones; Chip and battery life are simply stellar; OxygenOS is nearly as good as stock Android

Camera is better; but the loss of a telephoto lens is a bummer; No expandable storage; water resistance; or wireless charging

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.

The OnePlus 5T has a bigger screen and its camera takes better low-light photos than the 5; Its few software tweaks are useful in small ways

The phone's face unlock doesn't authorize payments and its dual camera's digital rather than telephoto zoom is a step back; There's no expandable storage, and it's not rated for water resistance

To conclude, the OnePlus 5T is certainly one of the fastest Android smartphones of 2017 and it does come with a premium look and display. The performance is top notch and Dash charge is a real saviour. But when it comes to the camera, the phone struggles.
