We’ve seen loads of images supposedly showing the OnePlus 5, and they’ve all included a vertically aligned dual-lens camera, yet a new leak goes against them, showing horizontally aligned lenses instead.
The image, which was posted to Weibo (a Chinese social network), appears to be an official OnePlus 5 teaser, and shows an outline of the phone in black and white, with the camera in the top left corner, and what’s likely an LED flash to the right of it.
Other details include the expected OnePlus logo, and seemingly antenna lines at the top left and bottom right. That’s another difference from what we’ve seen before, as most leaked images so far don’t have any visible antenna lines.
Questionable but possible
That could mean this is fake – it certainly wouldn’t have been hard to fake – but we are expecting the OnePlus 5 to have a metal body, and if it does then antenna lines are likely, so it could be that the older images are wrong or unfinished prototypes.
The change in camera alignment is the biggest red flag here, but even that has some support, as one earlier leak suggested horizontal lenses. So this image could be accurate, but we’d take it with the usual grain of salt.
Elsewhere on Weibo, a leaked image that’s almost entirely been obscured seems to say the OnePlus 5 will have a 3,300mAh battery. Given that all we can really see is a small amount of text we wouldn’t read too much into it. It also goes against other sources, which have claimed 3,580mAh, 3,600mAh and even 4,000mAh battery sizes.
The good news is we should know the truth soon, as the OnePlus 5 is set to launch sometime this summer.
- The Google Pixel 2 could be a powerful alternative
