OnePlus said this “changes the contrast of the display to automatically reduce glare in situations where it’s needed,” such as outdoors on a bright day. In addition to a Reading Mode, where color temperature is altered and the screen calibrated based on ambient light to improve reading conditions, OnePlus added Sunlight Display to its adaptive brightness mode. Viewing angles are excellent, and you can hide the Android navigation keys away from sight to make the most of the edge-to-edge screen. We didn’t notice any difference in performance between the AMOLED on the OnePlus 5 and the OnePlus 5T. We hesitate to call the 18:9 aspect ratio screen larger or better than its 16:9 counterpart but it certainly shows more content in the right situation, which means less scrolling and more reading. The OnePlus 5T’s screen really is wonderful to look at. The same effect will be seen in most social networking apps, browsing the web, and in other text-based activities in portrait orientation. On the OnePlus 5T’s screen you see almost an entire tweet more than on the OnePlus 5. What’s the difference between looking at a OnePlus 5 (or any other 16:9 aspect ratio screen) and the OnePlus 5T? Let’s take a Twitter feed as an example. The OnePlus 5T’s screen really is wonderful. It’s crisp, has a beautiful color spread with deep blacks, and its high brightness level makes it easy to read in direct sunlight. How does the OnePlus 5T’s new screen look? It’s still a gorgeous Full Optic AMOLED panel, just like the one of the OnePlus 5, only with a slightly adjusted Full HD+ resolution, reaching 2,160 x 1,080 pixels spread over the 6.01-inch panel. A great AMOLED screenĪll this talk about 18:9 aspect ratio screens, and the continued adoption of them by the smartphone industry, may make you wonder if they’re worth the hype. None of these tiny issues spoil the OnePlus 5T. The camera lens bulge has got bigger, and it’s a shame the fingerprint sensor looks like an afterthought - we would have liked to see it a little more indented or have chamfered edges to make it a little more distinguishable. Just look at the back: A OnePlus logo, neatly blended in antenna lines, and that’s all. It also helps that it’s beyond lightning fast.Ĭhanging the design like this has made the OnePlus 5T look less like an iPhone, and we really adore the minimalist approach throughout. It’s natural and convenient, largely because the sensor is well-placed. Fingerprint sensors on the rear are almost standard across the Android world now, with LG, Samsung, Google, and others all adopting it. OnePlus has used the outgoing format since the OnePlus 2, and some hardcore fans may find this change controversial. The sensor has now relocated to the back of the phone, and you can only use on-screen navigation buttons on the 5T. Minimizing the edges around the screen also meant getting rid of capacitive buttons and the home button, which doubled as a fingerprint sensor. The OnePlus 5T is the phone the OnePlus 5 should have been. The weight is different enough to notice when you compare the two together, but not in everyday use. Despite the larger screen, the phone’s body is almost exactly the same size, though a little heavier at 163 grams. It’s taller and slimmer than the OnePlus 5’s screen, and now measures 6.01-inches rather than 5.5-inches. It transforms the way the OnePlus 5T looks, making it truly a peer alongside other bezel-less smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S8, the Huawei Mate 10 Pro, and the LG V30. The most visual change is on the front - the 5T swaps the chunky edges around the screen, and the 16:9 aspect ratio screen for a modern 18:9 screen, with skimpy bezels at the top and bottom. The OnePlus 5T is the phone the OnePlus 5 should have been. OnePlus proves again you don’t need to break the bank for a flagship phone. It offers a brilliant, bezel-less smartphone experience at an amazing price. In our OnePlus 5T review, we found a smartphone that’s impossible not to recommend. The changes with the 5T make a dramatic difference to the way the phone looks. It’s the same approach the company took in 2016 with the OnePlus 3 and 3T, despite saying future T-versions of its smartphones weren’t certain. Much like Apple’s “S” revisions, like the iPhone 6S, OnePlus’ “T” phones largely stick with the same hardware and design as the original, with minor changes that make the phone a more attractive purchase in the latter half of the year. OnePlus is back with the OnePlus 5T, a revised version of its excellent OnePlus 5 smartphone. Old version of Android installed at launch
