Presumed OnePlus 5 photo sample hints at a camera with portrait mode, bokeh effect
The recently posted official image of the OnePlus 5 already confirmed the availability of a dual-camera setup. The exact camera specs are still unknown, but one of them may be a monochrome unit, if we can judge from the photo published by OnePlus CEO Pete Lau on Tuesday. And now comes another clue straight out of the OnePlus Twitter page – the above portrait, captioned “Totally Bokeh”.
On a related note, simulated bokeh can be found in more than a few handsets with dual-camera modules – not only on the iPhone 7 Plus, but also on the high-end Huawei P10 and even in more affordable models like the ZTE Blade V8 Pro, for instance. Some single-camera phones also try to deliver the effect, but dual-cam handsets tend to produce better results.
So, while OnePlus doesn’t say explicitly that the photo has been taken with an OnePlus 5, we can rest assured that its next phone will have a portrait mode of sorts. And considering that the company has been posting teasers on a regular basis, we should be expecting more of them before June 20, when the OnePlus 5 is to be announced.
