The New OnePlus 5T Hands On and Full Specifications.

The new OnePlus 5T goes on sale from November 21, starting at $499 or £449.

After a flurry of rumors, OnePlus is back with its latest marquee phone, the OnePlus 5T, which goes on sale beginning Nov. 21, starting at $499 — see the full breakout below, with international pricing.

The OnePlus 5T goes after Apple’s iPhone X with a new face unlock feature, which the company says will work with 99 percent accuracy so long as it can see your eyes and nose. As with Samsung’s face unlock feature, the 5T’s isn’t secure, and won’t authenticate any of your mobile payments. For that, you’ll need to use the fingerprint reader on the back.

While the last upgrade, from the OnePlus 3T to the OnePlus 5, was all about internal improvements (yes, they skipped the OnePlus 4), this transition to the 5T made some very noticeable changes to the phone’s looks. It’s taller, with slim bezels and a screen that takes up almost the whole phone face.

There’s also a shift on the camera strategy. Oh, don’t worry, you’ll still find two cameras on the rear — they even keep the same megapixel proportions, 16 and 20 — but the 20-megapixel telephoto lens now gives way to a low-light sensor. OnePlus is jumping on trends to emphasize portrait photography and low light. With these lenses, it especially takes aim at the iPhone (portrait prowess) and Google Pixel 2 (low-light excellence).

Other things that remain: the fingerprint reader, which has moved to the back to let that 6-inch screen breathe, and the notification slider on the side that lets you decide when you want to be alerted and when you don’t. There’s also (drum roll, please), the headset jack, a port that’s now an endangered species on high-end phones.

OnePlus described the body design as more refined, but honestly found it about the same size and same metal material. The camera mount does stick out a bit more than the OnePlus 5, but hasn’t gotten in our way so far. The fingerprint reader is fast and accurate, too.
