The camera was also identified to have a dynamic 23-megapixel. OnePlus 5 is then expected to run on Oxygen OS, a custom UI by OnePlus based on Android 7.0 Nougat.
Under OnePlus 5’s hood is also rumored to be the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 which is also said to be donned by the Samsung Galaxy S8. The killer device is also said to power house its performance with 6 GB of RAM or 8 GB through the support of Snapdragon 835 along with 256 GB of internal storage.

The image then showed a wallpaper with OnePlus’ motto “Never Settle.” The image is then perceived by others that the OnePlus will have HD resolution.
