OnePlus 5T

Dual-lens camera and top dog for performance has James Peckham ditching his other smart phones

Looking at the OnePlus 5T, it’s hard to believe that the company that made it is less than four years old. This is a phone that manages to hold its own alongside flagship devices from companies that have enormous pots of money to spend on R&D. Yet OnePlus has managed to make one of the best phones of 2017 and undercut the competition.

OpenPlus has jumped to a dual camera setup that enables you to capture some attractive-looking bokeh shots with blurred backgrounds, as well as boasting a lossless zoom feature, which essentially means that zooming in on subjects will only result in a negligible reduction in image quality. The aperture on the main sensor here is also impressively wide at f/1.7 – slightly improved from the 5 model – and it means you’ll be able to take some of the best smartphone photos possible right now, with it getting close to that of the Google Pixel 2’s quality.
