Verdict

- Henry Burrell

The OnePlus 5 is a logical refinement of the young company’s back catalogue. It marries solid design with excellent software in a package under £500. But a year ago, it did this all for a sliver over £300.

The phone feels like the end of OnePlus phase one and a bridge to whatever the company does next. It might not be the obvious bargain price OnePlus is known for but it’s still significan­tly cheaper, is incredibly fast and has improved cameras.

There are downsides with no waterproof­ing, Quad HD screen or wireless charging. We strongly recommend considerin­g this phone if you’ve been tempted by the Galaxy S8 or LG G6 but can’t stretch to them – the fact it’s in that conversati­on is testament to OnePlus’ continuing impressive achievemen­ts.
