Given the success of the OnePlus 3 and 3T, it might not be entirely surprising to know that there is plenty of excitement that surrounds OnePlus’ 2017 flagship. Even though an official announcement is around the corner, it finally appears as though we can see what the phone looks like before the grand unveiling.

OnePlus 5: everything we know so far

Based on the render below, courtesy of Android Police, it appears the phone will feature a dual-camera setup that has been one of the more consistent rumors up until now. If anything, the OnePlus 5 looks much like the iPhone 7 Plus in terms of styling, but most phones are aluminum slabs, anyway.

The render also tells us that OnePlus rounded off the sides of the phone, which should make the phone better to hold in the hand at the cost of it being somewhat slippery. Other observations of note include the matte black color, which might be standard instead of a limited edition option as it was with the OnePlus 3T, and the continued use of the mute switch.

Apart from those observations, however, there is not much else we can glean from the render. OnePlus has confirmed it will announce the OnePlus 5 on June 20, as well as the phone’s Snapdragon 835 processor, but almost everything else is unconfirmed. If rumors are correct, we should expect a beefy battery, more memory, and a higher price tag.
