OnePlus 5 rumoured to have dual rear camera setup

Riding high on the success of OnePlus 3 and 3T, OnePlus is getting ready to launch its next flagship product, i.e., One Plus 5. We already know OnePlus is skipping the number ‘4’ in its series as it is considered unlucky in China. Hence, after OnePlus 3T, a mid-cycle upgrade to OnePlus 3, the company is directly jumping to OnePlus 5.

OnePlus 5 is expected to release this year and rumours and leaks have already started pouring online. In a latest happening, India Today is giving us a glimpse of the next iteration of OnePlus.

Citing sources who have possibly worked on the OnePlus 5, India Today shared an image showing noticeable changes on the design of the OnePlus 5. The highlight of the report is the dual camera setup on the flagship device, placed vertically on the rear end with the flash sitting below.

According to the image, OnePlus 5 sports black colour with a seamless back cover. Apart from that, it looks like as if the phone features an all-metal build like its predecessors, with the fingerprint sensor on the Home button. The Power button and the volume rocker are placed on the left side of the smartphone and the ‘Alert Slider’ on the right.

However, the report also mentions that this is not the final design of the OnePlus 5 and changes may appear in the future.

As for the rest of its specifications, the OnePlus 5 is expected to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 SoC. The smartphone could come in storage variants of 64GB or 128GB which would be further expandable up to 256GB. On the camera front, the OnePlus 5 is expected to sport a 16-megapixel front-facing camera.

The smartphone is expected to be powered by a 4,000mAh battery along with the company’s famous Dash Charge technology. For connectivity, OnePlus 5 could come with a USB Type-C port. On the software front, the phone would run on Android 7.0 Nougat out-of-the-box with OxygenOS running on top.

The smartphone is also rumoured to feature a sleek design with thinner bezels and feature a dual-edge curved display, just like Samsung Galaxy S7 edge.
