**OnePlus 5T: A Flagship Phone at an Affordable Price**
The OnePlus has always been known for delivering flagship performance at a much lower price, and that trend continues with the brand new 5T. You're getting a lot of features from phones like the iPhone X and Galaxy Note 8 except at about half the price. But the question is, is it worth it?
**An Overview of the Phone**
Hey guys, this is Austin. I spent the last week playing with the OnePlus 5T and there's a lot to like. Compared to the already solid OnePlus 5, the most noticeable change is with the screen. Gone is the old 5.5 inch panel and in its place is a much taller six-inch screen in the exact same size to chassis.
**Display Features**
Sure, its bezels might not be as thin as something like the iPhone X, but you're still getting a lot more screen real estate with the two-to-one aspect ratio. It's a great panel too. While the resolution is a little low at 2160 by 1080, it's still plenty sharp to my eye. Unlike the Pixel 2 XL, it's actually a nice-looking OLED display. You have several other screen modes including sRGB and DCI-P3, which is my personal favorite.
**Design Features**
The capacitive keys are gone and the fingerprint sensor has been moved around back. I'm totally fine with this. Just like the Pixel, this feels like a really natural spot for it. The 5T does add facial recognition and while it's not in the same league as the iPhone X, it's pretty quick.
**Software Features**
Unfortunately, it's still running Android 7, but Oxygen OS remains pretty close to Stock Android with basically no bloatware. There's a lot of great customization options like rearranging your on-screen buttons and what things like a long press will do, as well as tweaking the notification shade and status bar to be exactly how you like.
**Performance Features**
The rest of the design looks almost identical to the OnePlus 5 and that's not really a bad thing. You've got the same almost too slippery aluminum back with the addition of that fingerprint sensor and amazingly for a new flagship in 2017, a headphone jack. You're also getting solid performance with a Snapdragon 835, six or eight gigs of RAM, and either 64 or 128 Gigabytes of storage.
**Battery Life**
This is backed up with a 3300 milliamp hour battery. While not massive, with the lower res screen and OnePlus's super-fast Dash charging, it makes it pretty easy to keep the phone topped off.
**Comparison to Other Phones**
If this feels like a classic S-model update to you, then you'd be right. I can't fault OnePlus for not totally overhauling the phone. The original OnePlus 5 was really solid. The issue was that it came out only five months ago. Look, I'm all for pushing tech forward, but it's kind of ridiculous that a five-month-old phone is already obsolete.
**The Google Pixel 2**
To be fair, I feel the same about the way that Samsung updates the Galaxy S and Note lines. Six months later, it seems like you're getting the same features as last year's model. So, what do you guys think about the OnePlus 5T? Let me know in the comments below.
**Camera Features**
And let's talk about the camera. This is what 4K video looks like on the OnePlus 5T. The audio is actually surprisingly decent and the stabilization, even though it's not optical, does a pretty good job of keeping up.

seemslike you just get a slightlyupdated Galaxy S8, but at leastwith the Note you're gettingsome major upgrades likethe S Pen and dual cameras.This strategy kind of workedlast year with the OnePlus 3T,but 2017 has proven to be oneof the most competitive yearsfor smartphones ever and nothingshows that off better thanthe Google Pixel 2.I absolutely love this phone.Software updates have improvedthe XL screen, but for methe standard Pixel 2 checks so many boxesthat it's basically the gold standard.Put it side by side and it'sclear that the OnePlus 5Tis a much larger phone.The smaller bezels absolutelydwarf the Pixel 2's five inchdisplay and having aheadphone jack is a real winfor a lot of people.The 5T still only has a singledownward firing speaker,which actually does getreasonably loud and has some bass,but it just can't match theterrific stereo speakerson the Pixel.The OnePlus also lacksany kind of waterproofingor wireless charging.Now I can live without these,but knowing that the Pixel 2isn't afraid of gettingwet is a big selling point.While Oxygen OS is good as faras skins go, I can't get awayfrom just how great Android looksand feels running on the Pixel 2.Not only has it had AndroidOreo since day one,but it is blisteringly fast.I've said it before and I'll say it again,Google has worked somereal magic with this phone.One area where OnePlushas really stepped it upis in the camera department.The main wide angle shooteris unchanged, but they swappedthe telephoto option for a20 megapixel secondary camerawith the same focal length.On one hand, this is a downgradeas you don't get optical zoom.However, they're using the same camerato improve low light performance.It works.Side by side with the Pixel,it holds up really well with noise.Although it can't quite touchthe Pixel 2's incredibledynamic range.They've gone for a slightlypunchier, more saturated look,which I think most peoplewill like, but it comesat the expense of some detail,even looking a bit soft at times.You do have portrait mode on bothand while the 5T does anadequate job, I really preferthe colors and thatcrazy range of the Pixel.To my eyeit looks like a significantlymore expensive camera.This is what 4K video lookslike on the OnePlus 5T.So I think audio isactually surprisingly decentand the stabilization, eventhough it's not optical,does a pretty good job of keeping up.The OnePlus 5T is a great phone.When you consider the $500price, it's easy to reconsiderthat Galaxy Note 8 or Pixel 2 XL.If you can look past the screen though,I think the standard Pixel2 is worth every pennyof the $150 price premium.So, what do you guys thinkabout the OnePlus 5T?Let me know in the commentsbelow and I will catch youin the next one.
