Alleged OnePlus 5 teaser shows off horizontal dual camera setup in back

Originally discovered on weibo, an alleged teaser for the OnePlus 5 was posted today by internet tipster slashleaks. The image shows what is claimed to be the OnePlus 5's back cover. Unlike other recently disseminated images claiming to show the phone, this one has the dual cameras on the back positioned horizontally. Additionally, the placement of the camera module is off-center in the upper left corner of the rear, just under the upper antenna line. Another such line is found on the bottom right of the rear. A lozenge shaped flash unit appears adjacent to the camera module, and the OnePlus logo shows up about two-fifth of the way down the handset's rear cover.

Yesterday, we showed you pictures that are claimed to be camera samples from the OnePlus 5. One of the images was in black and white, hinting that one of the dual cameras will shoot in monochrome. This feature supposedly will allow the phone to produce sharper and clearer photographs.

The OnePlus 5 is rumored to carry a 5.5-inch screen and will be powered by the Snapdragon 835 chipset. That means it will carry an octa-core CPU and the Adreno 540 GPU. A 3300mAh battery is said to be powering the device, which CEO and co-founder Pete Lau says will be the thinnest flagship device available. With no such verification of the teaser that accompanies this story, we suggest that you take it with a grain of salt.
