Overall a great phone with a not so great camera

Edited: Apr 25, 2018, 3:00 AM

Phone owned for less than a year

3 things really surprised me about this phone. The build, the display, and the battery. All exceeded my expectations. I was worried about going from a 1440p LCD display to this 1080p AMOLED but I like this screen way more than my previous phones. The vivid colors are outstanding. Perfect blacks of course due to the nature of this type of screen. It’s a large display which I like but that does make the phone big and difficult to use with one hand, which is primarily how I use my phone.

This thing is fast! I’ve never seen a faster phone with my own eyes. Performance is superb and the specs are fantastic for the price. I like the software quite a bit. If you are into modding your phone, which I am, this is your best bet as far as I can tell. Plenty of active development for this device.

The speaker sounds good and gets loud but it faces the bottom which can cause problems. Face unlock is quick and so is the fingerprint reader.

The camera needs work. Pictures in good lighting look fine unless you zoom in all the way. Things get worse as the conditions darken. To me the videos fare much better. 4K video look nice and EIS does a pretty solid job. The front facing camera is good for what it is. The camera app is OK. A bit too simple for me. Very few options. The camera is the obvious flaw of the phone. Everything else is pretty good.

I’ve had this phone for about 5 months and I believe it was the right choice for me. I love it.

DONT BUY THIS PHONE - Expect no service from OnePlus

Posted: Feb 12, 2018, 3:47 PM

Phone owned for less than 3 months

I got my OnePlus 5T and was based on the tech eviews, I wa very excited start using it. First it seemed to work great but in acouple of weeks i realized the the Mic on the speaker mode was not working properly.
I called the company support line (answered in China) and they advised me to send the phone for repair to their authorized service texas does not have presence in the US and provide ZERO service
Great phone from a bd company - avoid at this time

The screen 5T makes you fall in love. Very high quality of color transmission, profile selection and brightness / contrast at height. Interface speed at altitude. Very clear transfer of the voice of the interlocutor during a conversation. The battery life is amazing. Charging speed is very fast. It's a pleasure to play games. The camera is good. The smartphone is a very good price / quality one of the best on the market. Highly recommend!
