Oneplus 5

OnePlus - a company that started out as a small smartphone venture has now grown to a point where their smartphones sit toe to toe with current gen flagships , the Oneplus smartphone range , which consisted of the One , Two , Three and the OnePlus X (4 is excluded as it sounds similar to the word "death" in many Asian cultures ) is almost 4 generations long , and their lineup , which has focused on delivering a unrivalled smartphone experience at about 2/3 the flagship price has so far worked well for the Chinese OEM and this has paved the way for their latest iteration - the OnePlus 5 .

Design


Its no secret that the OnePlus 5 looks almost similar to another flagship smartphone from a year back . The designs , camera layout gives the impression that the design has been based on other iPhone 7 design clones from China (Oppo comes into mind) anyways , the phone features a headphone jack which is good news in itself . The aluminum rear panel flows throughout the device except for the built in antenna bands and the plastic rubber lip which sits as a cushion seal for the display, below that , you can find the USB type C port and two down firing speakers  . The rear also has a single dual tone LED flash and the dual camera set up as well

Up front , the display is protected by Gorilla glass 5 and it also has a ceramic coated fingerprint sensor which would be quite durable than most Android manufacturers who use a plastic coating instead . The OnePlus 5 however is not resistant as most flagship smartphones today .

Hardware


Although the design of the phone is a bit so..so .. the internals of the device is not something to laugh at . The brain of the phone is a Snapdragon 835 clocked to 4.25 Ghz (max) . The processor is also backed up by Adreno 540 Graphics and has 6GB or 8GB of LPDDR4 ram on board . Storage options of the phone vary on the RAM options and if you select the base version with 6GB of RAM , you can get 64GB of storage while 8GB of RAM gets you 128GB of storage , MicroSD options are sadly not available on the device but the internal storage will be sufficient for most users .

Display technology of the OP 5 does not feature anything groundbreaking as it retains the 1920x1080p resolution and 5.5" display size and the Optic AMOLED display . The display is 
protected by Gorilla Glass 5 .

Cameras on the device includes a dual camera layout at the back and a single 16MP shooter up front , this camera features a f2.0 aperture , 1080p recording and has electronic image stabilization provided by the gyroscope . The rear shooters , which include a 16MP 1/2.8" sensor with a fixed f2.0 and a 1.12 micrometer size , this camera is backed up by a 20MP 1/2.8" sensor with a fixed f2.0 aperture and a 1.6x optical zoom when shifting between the 16mp and 20mp units . The camera unit is backed up by a LED flash .

The battery on the phone features a built in 3300 mAh battery with dash charge for fast charging .

Pricing


The 6GB/64GB option costs $479 while the 8GB/128GB $539 .

HTC One to sell as TD 101 at China Mobile

HTC decided to invest in such a brand by launching the One series of smartphones last year, although the company was not able to impose its own product names to certain carriers. Then, just a few days ago, the company launched the HTC One, which is going to be the company’s only One-branded handset this year, a make-or-break kind of project for the Taiwanese Android maker that’s still having a tough time fighting against the competition, especially Samsung. We were under the impression that HTC will further invest in its One brand and not budge to carrier demands anymore when it comes to changing the name of the product – in the U.S., AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile are going to sell it as the HTC One. But it looks like things aren’t necessarily so, and no, it’s not Verizon that’s going to get its way selling the One as the Droid DNA Plus, as it was recently rumored. We’re looking at China Mobile this time around, which has announced the HTC One as the HTC TD 101. That’s certa
