Having announced its collaboration with DxOMark Mobile for OnePlus 5 camera, the company has revealed its design feature.
Pete Lau, CEO, OnePlus on Weibo, Chinese version of Twitter, has confirmed that OnePlus 5 will be the slimmest flagship phone. Since the message is in local language, it's a bit hard to translate whether he meant the device will be the thinnest model compared to its previous years' editions or with the rival brands.
