Tech Review #5 - Oneplus 5

in #technology7 years ago

Another cheap BEAST came from One plus factory. I think model is called 6 because One plus 5 is 6 but don't take that information too seriously :D


Basic information

Dimensions: 154.2 x 74.1 x 7.25 mm
Weight: 153g
Material: Anodized Aluminum
Operating System: OxygenOS based on Android Nougat
CPU: Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 (Octa-core, 10nm, up to 2.45GHz)
GPU: Adreno 540
RAM: 6/8GB
Storage: 64/128GB
Ports: USB 2.0, Type-C, Support USB Audio, Dual nano-SIM slot, 3.5mm audio jack
Battery: 3300 mAh (non-removable)
Audio: Bottom-facing speaker, 3 microphones with noise cancellation


Design:

On the first look in my opinion Oneplus 5 looks like an old Iphone with Samsung home botton. On the front side we can see that screen to body ratio is pretty bad considering that newer generation on smartphones are trying to create phones with the less possible gap space. If you take a look on the bottom of the phone you can see that Oneplus 5 still got 3.5mm audio jack which lot of newer phones have removed. Personally I like that oneplus 5 has 3.5 jack specially I like position of it because I think that is very practical. You can plug in headphones and put phone in jeans on "natural way". Personaly I always put phone in pocket on that way that screen is not directly endangered by external influences so screen is faced on thigh.
I don't think that speaker position is practical because right handed people may block speaker with little finger while using it.
On the left side Oneplus 5 has volume bottons and "do not disturb" slider. Like I said lot of similarities with Iphone.
On the right side it has power botton.
But on the top side we can find...... hmm ... nothing!


Screen

As I said I don't like screen on body ratio because of it phone looks "retro" .
Oneplus 5 comes with 5.5" AMOLED screen.
With the resolution full HD 1080p, screen has 401ppi.
Of course screen has Gorilla glass 5 protection.


Performance

Oneplus 5 comes with Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 (Octa-core, 10nm, up to 2.45GHz) which is enough powerful to run any game or app on market fluently. This processor doesn't know what lag means. Phone also has Adreno 540 graphic processor and 6/8GB of RAM depending on model. Also there is 2 versions of storage 64/128GB.


Cameras

This model came with not only 1, not only 2 but 3 cameras haha
On a front we can find "selfie" camera with Sony IMX 371 sensor and 16 MP and aperture f/2.0.
But on the back we can find one wide angle camera + one telephoto camera with dual flash.

Wide angle camera specs:

  • Sensor: Sony IMX 398
  • Megapixels: 16
  • Aperture: f/1.7

Telephoto camera specs:

  • Sensor: Sony IMX 350
  • Megapixels: 20
  • Aperture: f/2.6

They can capture videos in these options:

  • 4K resolution video at 30fps
  • 1080P resolution video at 60fps
  • Slow Motion: 720p videos at 120fps

Here you can see two difference in lenses

Battery

Battery on Oneplus 5 has 3300 mAh. If you take in consider that phone has amoled screen with 400ppi I don't think that battery would drain fast. It should hold out more than 4 hours screen on time without activating any battery saving. It comes with "Dash charge" which should charge phone fastest on the market at the moment with 5V and 4A.


Conclusion

Advantages:

  • Price around $500
  • High quality photos
  • Amoled screen
  • Dual nano-SIM slot
  • USB Type-C
  • fingeprint scanner
  • fast charging
  • 3.5mm audio jack

Disadvantages:

  • Speaker position
  • Doesn't have microSD card slot
  • Screen to body ratio

Today's technology is pretty sophisticated, everything we need is there and satisfying

Future is here ...now!

Technology has influenced the community and its surroundings in many ways. In many societies, technology has helped improve the economy (including today's global economy) and has enabled the rise of the leisure. Many technological processes produce unwanted by-products, called polluters, and deplete natural resources, harming, and destroying the Earth and its environment

The development of technology on smartphones to bring new innovations that make users become increasingly in love. In addition to the design of the more cool and simple, there are new features that can answer the needs of users. As if to be a loyal friend, a smartphone can always be relied upon to make it easy to do all the activities. As a result now created smart phones that have advanced features that previously never imagined will be present.

Smartphones with all glass or display without bezel become a trend. Design without a bezel with a curved screen is already prevalent in the world of smartphones today. But smartphones without own bezel not much in the market because some manufacturers have not launched these products.

Good phone with chipest price other than samsung and ios. I like the phone most.

Chinese mobile phones started to be mainstream! beng beng ;)

Technology is the whole means to provide the goods necessary for the survival and comfort of human life.
The use of technology by humans begins with the conversion of natural resources into simple tools. The prehistoric discovery of the ability to control fire has increased the availability of food sources, while wheel creation has helped humans in the streets and controlling their environment. Recent technological developments, including printing presses, telephones, and the Internet, have narrowed down the physical barriers to communication and allowed humans to interact freely on a global scale. However, not all technologies are used for peaceful purposes; the development of even greater destructive weapons has been going on throughout history, from batons to nuclear weapons.

The OnePlus 5 is a smartphone made by Oneplus. This is the successor to Oneplus3T released in 2016. OnePlus 5 was officially launched in essence on June 20, 2017. It was replaced by OnePlus 5T just five months later on November 21, 2017. The Verge announced in May 2017 that the upcoming device will be known as OnePlus 5. It is said that this decision is caused by the number four is considered disadvantaged (tetraphobia) in China. OnePlus confirmed that the handset will feature Snapdragon 835 processor before it launches.

I bought the Oneplus X one year ago it was the low budget smartphone from the line and it completely changed my mind. There are so many smartphones out there besides the mainstream companys.

You are the real hipster :)
You bought china phone before it was mainstream hahah

HHAH Hipster I am only short a 30 cm beard and a WWII haircut and I would be a text book hipster :D

I like the telephoto camera feature. I wonder if more phone models will start including this kind of feature. I'm not much of a photographer but the big thing that still keeps me using a separate camera from time to time is the lack of any kind of optical zoom in smartphone cameras. Understandable given the thin nature of smartphones I suppose.

Lot of new phones comes with two cameras. Personally I love photography and I don't like taking pictures with mobilephones but newer technologies are real competitor to some low budget DSLR.

I'm still using an older Galaxy Note 4. I've been putting off upgrading but am starting to think about it. I just hate the fact that phones stopped including easily replaceable batteries and many don't bother to provide expandable storage. I suppose batteries in most phones can still be replaced. It just requires more disassembly and is more of a pain.

I rally hate the fact that I cannot replace battery but I got used to it. Hopefully i will change my phone before I would need because of some issue :D
