OnePlus 5 Design Leak Reveals Possible New Look

The past year saw major success for OnePlus with the 3 and 3T models, sparking curiosity about whether the brand can maintain momentum with its next flagship. A recent design render shared by India Today has sparked discussion, though questions remain about its authenticity and whether it accurately depicts the OnePlus 5.

The leaked image highlights a noticeable dual-camera arrangement on the rear, aligning with trends among current flagship devices. While the exact camera configuration remains unclear, the render also shows a LED flash positioned below the cameras, with the OnePlus logo beneath it. Button placements appear consistent with the 3 and 3T, and reassuringly, the phone seems to retain the 3.5mm headphone jack at the bottom without a camera bump.

Additional details from the render suggest a metal body that appears to have removed the top antenna band, though a faint band remains visible at the bottom. Rumored specifications for the OnePlus 5 include a 5.5-inch QuadHD Optic AMOLED display, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, 6GB or 8GB of RAM, 64GB or 128GB storage options, a 16MP selfie camera matching the 3T, dual rear cameras (yet to be confirmed), OxygenOS based on Android 7 Nougat, a 3600mAh battery, and a front-mounted fingerprint sensor. However, these specs are unofficial and could change before the official launch.

Given the single source of the leak and the lack of corroborating evidence, skepticism remains. While the dual-camera design and button layout seem plausible, only the official unveiling—expected within 2-3 months of the original article date—will provide definitive answers.
