the OnePlus 5 !!!

[batboyz]

no OIS. video taking is shiat

The issue is there is no EIS in 4K, only 1080p. OP5 EIS on 1080p is not bad, but they should have also applied it to 4K. However, the front cam EIS cropped in too much.

hahaha precisely my concern, I was rocking my iPhone and S7 when OP3 came out. decided to pass, blink of an eye OP3T with bigger battery and stronger processor got launched, lol so why not?

I think and hope that the 3T came out because of they wanted to avoid OnePlus4. So like 5phones are out and it's called OnePlus5

One plus, Oppo all under same company. Maybe thats why we haven see oppo find series.

The team behind OnePlus used to be the team managing the OPPO Find series..

PocketNow real camera review out by Juan Bagwell.

The camera shouldn't disappoint casual users, especially given the price.

No longer the flagship killer at low prices.

Now the price about the same as S8 which is retailing at 880$

It's not low price, but considerably lower than other flagships. It's also not fair to compare export with local set pricing. If want to compare, should compare against their US pricing, i.e.,

S8 = $724, S8+ = $824.99
OP5 64GB = $479 (-$245), 128GB = $539

So yes, OP5 is still considerably cheaper than S8.

Now is all about choices.

1) buy S8 and stuck with their SuckWiz UI, no root & bootloader unlock.

OR

2) buy OP5, get a near stock android experience. Allow you to play different kinds of customs.

Street price for S8 has gone below $900 so it's not too much higher than the oneplus 5 now, considering the fact we have almost zero warranty for oneplus.

It's still at good buy but has become less compelling and no brainer to get oneplus phones.

For the ones who only want pure android then that's the obvious choice. I think even the G6 is not a bad choice at $680 now with 2 years warranty

Here all elite one , no flagshit specs no count
Tbh 6g is really more than enuff considering most flagships are still stuck at 4g ram

Actually ya 6gb more than enough already as I'm using Mi mix now but sometimes it does end up with stutter when too many things are open.

HK still got stock so got accessories still? Need to get a case and tempered glass

Which forwarded is good for HK to SG?

True but for the local buyer, it becomes unattractive because apart from the no warranty status, the price compared with say a U11 with 128gb becomes not good value.

Yes, that's fair from SG buyer perspective, no argument on that. Was comparing based on "general" perspective, since OP does not decide on the pricing based on SG perspective.

for me, the phone usually doesnt break using the warranty period anyway

Yea quite ex from a SG perspective:

[USD 480 + USD 20 ( for shipping to sg) ] * 1.07 * 1.4 = S$750

S8 is around S$880

wait for Lazada price...

 

[Alexz_Hong]

They mentioned better network support and one model for global market during announcement, so i'm curious if that means that if you get the China model with Hydrogen OS, is it just a firmware flash to convert into global version?

Unlike previously with OP3T where specs listed for china variant (A3010) and global variant (A3003) had different supported bands, OP5 in China seems to support the exact same bands as the global variant. If true maybe we can find cheaper ways to buy the phone after all like through qoo10 with coupons through resellers.

Anyone got lobang can share? Shall wait to see local dealer sell how much for export set!!!!

S8 anytime. The design wins hands down.

Unless you are staying in US, i think we should compare it with SG pricing since we are all using it in SG

Lazada is OP official channel into SG? Or is it 3rd party retailers that flash oxygen os from their china variant?
