That imaging director though 😂😂😂😂😂
Isaac Planter he is stoned
I strive to be at a point in my life where I can wear a rug hat and crocs to an interview
He looks hungover
😂😂😂
Isaac Planter you know when you see your support animal, yeah, he's my spirit animal. I miss wearing Crocs 😂
The person that wants to buy a one plus phone doesn't just want to get something different than Samsung or apple. They want a cheap phone that has mostly up to date technology.
I will add developer friendly.. I should be able to do whatever I want with my phone and repair if anything goes other ways.
Nikhil Teja i got free rrpair for my oneplus
Tech-Talk-Toe Mac How are they going to do that? You either get a cheap mediocre phone or a expensive good one.
edvxrd The first OnePlus phone was $300 and had the latest specs at the time.
edvxrd GTFO - haven't you seen or used ANYTHING by OnePlus
5:01 *wears crocs*
lol chillest development team ever
Nah, that's just how it goes in China. Asian cultures generally don't like to wear their outside shoes indoors, so they have slippers at the office cuz it's cleaner (even thought offices there generally aren't that clean, and they smell like smoke). Saw a lot of Crocs when visiting my client Alibaba. They also take naps after lunch... turn out the lights, some people bring camping cots to the office for their naps.
stan_sprinkle Not true. That guy just simply has a really bad taste.
true . yes it is true
stan_sprinkle So he didn't know the Americans were coming to film, so they had to interrupt his nap.
lupinearsenalALT Wrong! I have an lg
The success of OnePlus is because of one soul named : Marquees Brownlee
Surprised that i have found you here. i would love to hear you talk about organism 46b- an interesting topic to explored
💯
Who else wants those rejected OnePlus prototypes?
Mitchell Hang hell yeah
they are all copied design from last gen phones...
The Nexus 6p lookalike looks really good
yeah its great...almost every prototype looks awesome
I like the one that looks like OnePlus 2
*Imaging Director smoked a big one before the interview...*
Tanbir Singh he probably smoked a big one when designing this phone
Darkklaw lol
Go to 4:50. I can't stop laughing now
Tanbir Singh right 😂😂😂
lol, seriously, hahahaaahaaa
Wasn't OnePlus suppose to be a cheap phone thats good enough for people to buy, if its JUST like Samsung and Apple now, then there's no difference
"Why get this over Samsung or Apple?"
"Idk lol"
MAJORxALTERcATiON OnePlus would still offer a much better software experience than Samsung
and its still a lot cheaper (most likely, will be revealed tonight)
Still 200-300 cheaper than Samsung
MAJORxALTERcATiON My Galaxy S7 Edge was 800€. My OnePlus 3 only was 400€ and is much better. I don't miss anything from Samsung.
Watching this on my OnePlus 3T
4:52 Simon liu looks like he's not happy to be there and had to be pulled out of the bed forcefully for this interview..
Tryden D'Souza He is high.
we need meme of him
5:08 - serious professional crocs
I love how they're bullshitting us with all that "engineering" when all they did was rebrand Oppo's new phone, which is an iPhone 7 clone.
Did I just watch an ad?
Did anyone notice the amazing sense of style of this dude at 4:51 ?
That dude know's what's up 😂
Loizos Shiakallis but those are crocs...
I assure you those are knock-off. Its Shenzhen China
What? No.
Loizos Shiakallis style this dude hasnt heard that word before
What? What is the announcement event even for at this point?
So all of the leaked designs were real, they just were earlier iterations. But still OnePlus, why all of this confusion before the event? They should have done it like I expected in my video on the troll hypothesis...Would have been way better PR, unless this is still a troll and the Verge is now onboard.
It's tomorrow (June 20th, 10pm right now in China).
Mitchell Hang The Event is in over 24h...
2:12 - 2:20...How to do all the animations that verge does..Pls can anyone help me in this..
If OnePlus knows it has to satisfy it's fans to succeed, then why is all of this happening? The design, the confusion, ...

Is it just me or do they not look alike at all?
Maybe you can copy one.
I prefer the second camera a wide angle camera. I barely use the portrait camera on the iPhone whereas on the LG g6 I always use the wide angle camera. oneplus do a wide angle pls
Friendly notification about facebook group with the latest coupons in Chinese online store:
facebook.com/groups/326747374417279/
:P
the primary camera is has a wide angle lens and the second one is telephoto
Well they did it with 5t
YourTechGuide i love u
All I see in prototypes are Nexus 6P, Huawei P10, iPhone 7+
yeah, i agree with you
DarkPa1adin , it's no so , fact Wise today there are so many phones , that even if a company designs it's own new design shape , it may look like a copy !!!!
Gowtham Natarajan Huawei is the only Chinese OEM which is really competitive to Samsung and Apple, because Huawei always Design their Smartphones with some unique designs which are orignal work. They never copy everything.
FARHAN kazi that doesnt mean you would just copy paste a design from your competitors
DarkPa1adin gr
"doesn't want a phone that looks like everyone elses" ... looks exactly like iphone 7
Tommy Burda it's a troll final design will be different ;)
TheN0Scope78 hope so man
TheN0Scope78 Nope, that's the final design. It's also had the same design like their parents company flagship, oppo R11.
WE WANT THOSE REJECTED PROTOTYPES
A great OnePlus announcement!
What we are asking for is the low price point that we've gotten used to. That's what separated oneplus from the others. If this new camera makes the phone jumps significantly in price, then we might as well go with Samsung or LG
Yeah, we have enough expesive phones. The price is what sold the op1,2 and 3.
ICE Starboy wrong , oneplus 3 sold because of its overall package not just its price , there have been many good spec cheap price phones over the last two years and one plus has to actually provide a solid package
Not really, i'm looking forward to a nearly stock android experience with great hardware and I dont mind paying close as an iphone or an s8, in fact, I can see this being a pixel competitor.
Then why not buy a pixel? With pixel phone you get binary files support so even after rooting you don't loose the camera/GPS etc functionality unlike OnePlus and other manufacturers with closed source support.
Of course, it's a great phone, but what i mean is, do you think it would have sold as well if it was the same price as a Samsung galaxy or an iphone?
"You're probably watching this video on your phone right now" - Nope, watching it on my PC. Videos from the Verge has to be watch on a big size monitor
same here
Billy K didn't know that
He said " probably"
He did, because that's where most people will be watching it from
Why should I watch The Verge on my PC, when I can lay in bed and be super comfortable? (I don't have a laptop) :(
One plus competing with Xiaomi to become 'China's Apple'. Lol
Huawei goes pretty hard too! As far as mantras go though, that's spot on.
The Chinese manufacturers fall down for not bedding down with Qualcomm and Samsung can't really decide. Having uniformity in chipsets I feel is way more important for mobile platforms.
One Plus and Oppo belong to the same parent company.
Well,I don't think so,xiaomi have their own design,meizu is real Chinese apple
xiaomi attracts the budget buyers..not like one plus
As someone whose been a user since the original and the 3 and switched back and forth between other phones etc... nice to see carl speak his mind, loved his speech at the end and he's a responder as well on their forums from when I was a oneplus 1 & 3 user.
Watching on my one plus 3T 😎

Walter CCH Hi5
Why does everyone care about the design so much? It's a slab of metal! Just be "jacked" that they didn't copy a certain other "feature" of the iPhone 7...
Benjamin Nelson it copied portrait mode
Ananya Bhat don't know if you can really say they copied portrait mode. Speaking of design, it's incredibly hard to build something so different these days, by building something more similar to an iPhone is going to make people happy.
Portrait mode is copied from SLR
Jacob Bryant but still, OnePlus losing it's old charm
Just becoming a smartphone company like all, b4 it had differentiating factors from others
No it didn't. It was never rated as the best looking phone. The differentiating factor is how cheap it is for what it's delivering and tbh I still think they're doing that.
Simon Liu at 4:51 is my style inspiration: high break pants, multi-coloured crocs, woollen beanie.
Pure class.
Have to say
rejected prototypes designs are better than original.
Mohammed Suhail if not better atleast original
ofcouse they would be. its human nature.
prototyping is usually done for engineering reasons. not for subjective opinions on looks.
Mohammed Suhail For god sake could someone inform the reviewer that it's not just Apple and Samsung that sell smartphones!
No they do not. most of them had that unnecessary glass bar at the top like Huawei phones, and two of them had a a centralized camera on the back, which is a worse place to put the camera than in a corner, because you are more likely to cover it up with your fingers.
please tell me they are trolling us with that design
Patcharapong Limpanachokchai ofc it's a troll
Watching on my OnePlus 5. Love this phone and thanks for the fantastic video.
they're hyping up the dual camera but no wide angle lens for wide angle shots, which is IMO the main benefit of dual camera (not a pointless portrait mode with gimmicky bokeh that you'll use twice then forget).
for this rather pointless reason, OP5 is now 'the most expensive oneplus yet'... doesn't seem worth it at the moment IMO.
armuk so true
Wide angle is damn near useless. You have these things called feet for that. They could do much better things with the dual camera, like using a black and white one to improve night pictures and shadows. Also, it isn't just a bokeh effect. Dual cameras improve depth of field, capture 3 dimentionality more accurately when taking a picture, and decreases distortion compared to normal lenses. A wide angle lens is quite literally the most useless feature you could add. It literally does nothing but add distortion and increase the fov equivalent of a step or two back.
armuk i have an lg g5 and i love the wide angle feature
You gotta remember that you can't just swap out lenses on a phone like you can on a DSLR. For that reason, they had to find a sweet spot, which was the portrait mode because most people are going to be taking pictures of themselves and other people. Also, just because it's named "portrait mode" or such doesn't mean you can't equally use it for taking other types of photos.
zoom is more useful than distortion
"what iphone you got?"
"its a oneplus one"
"oh"
*awkward silence*
Nice OnePlus one tho.
"It's a 6 (1+5)"
President GrumpyTaco I am literally typing this comment on my OnePlus One. This is so true lmao
with a headphone jack + dash charging + micro SD card....
*person looks at his iphone*
*person throws iphone*
opps #burned!
President GrumpyTaco my day everyday
5:00 this Guy haha :D
I was scrolling the comments looking for this. And those crocs tho'
Continental Coins the goal is to be rich, not to look rich 😂
He's high af
he's style tho 😂

Man, videos like this make me love The Verge even more than before.
IT IS AN IPHONE 7 PLUS LITERALLY WTF 6:01 THE CAMERA AND THE ANTENNA BANDS ARE THE SAME EXACT DESIGN
AT 6:11 & 6:14
Wynexo I hate to inform you that many phone designs are incredibly similar. The oneplus 5 won't be as expensive as and iPhone 7 plus by a long way
that doesn't necessarily make it better.. just like a cheaper car may not last as long as a more expensive model
iPhones are so much more SMOOTHER and the OS on Apple's products is the best out there, by far. Having had a Samsung Galaxy S6 edge and an iPhone 6, there is a considerable difference in specs and actual usage of the phone, in my opinion. Nothing matches how efficient and fast Apple's iPhones are.
My oneplus 3t is much smoother than my friends iPhones....Probably due to the fact they dont add all this bloatware like samsung does...
Making the OnePlus 5, step 1 - look at the iPhone 7 plus
Robert Ibanez pretty accurate
Simon Liu, a real Chinese hipster.
In Finland we are lucky, that one of our biggest local dealerships sell One Plus!
funny how the CEO of OnePlus uses a mac.
Menuka Munasinghe Why's that funny?
I know right?
I would assume a lot of CEO's use Macs.
Those design rejects look better than the final design lol
I think oneplus is still trolling us it's not the final design that they will announce tomorrow, Lets see...😉
Waqar Khan interesting idea...
Waqar Khan OMG !!!! I was thinking the exact same thing ;)
Waqar Khan that's the kind of 5hing they would probably do tbh
Waqar Khan no not at all...the iphone like design is all over the ads on the TV in India. Definitely they are not trolling. Disappointed with Oneplus, they could hv copied samsung, but copying shitty iphone is pathetic.
jokes on you i'm already fat
Prototype at 5:23 with a bumped up line in the middle looks so good ❤
Bought OP5 yesterday..and I can't be more satisfied!!😍😍😍
OnePlus X user! 😐
Rushikesh Kulkarni Rare breed, us.
Rushikesh Kulkarni here too
Rushikesh Kulkarni Don't understand people who bought OP2 or OPX - worst choice ever. OnePlus One was a great phone for the price, OnePlus 3/3T was the best in the 2016 market, but OnePlus 2 and X was completely failure.
Rushikesh Kulkarni would like to see that phone updated, because i want a 5 inch phone instead
Rushikesh Kulkarni hell yeah!!! oneplus x!!!❤
Out of all the original mock ups they chose the worst one, the one that looks like an iphone. SMH
Gianmarco original? All are copycat of other phones and brands
Giorat23 only some, but still, much better than the final design
My 3T is my third phone from oneplus and i couldn't be more happy with it.
these guys are really humble for the beast they've created , I really respect them and there product . huge fan of oneplus
There were so many good design prototypes and they chosed the one which look worse of them and looks exactly like a iphone. I'm not saying they copied iphone but there were so many good prototypes they could have chosed from, then why only this....
they copied
It's not only about looks. They must have thought about it (look alike iPhone). At last you make a decision about the look vs several other factors (that we don't know till now ). There must be some reasons why Apple in the first place choose that design. Let's see the launch what they have tell
***** ya i agree with you..
how much will it be? that will decide basically everything
plot twist : apple steal oneplus design
plot twist: stfu
ciee trigger lol
Plot twist Apple stole from HTC (true story)
Plot Twist: HTC copied iPhone and got dragged in the lawsuit with Samsung (true story)
This. People should stop complaining about "stolen designs" because they're all rectangular flat slabs anyway. As long as actual copyrights or trademarks aren't violated, why the hell does it matter?
I've always bought high end phones..Galaxy note, LG V10 but I got tired of same stuff so I looked at OP3T midnight black and purchased it..I never realized how great this phone was until I used it as my daily driver...months later I still can't believe I got the fastest phone(6g ram),128g storage,the best battery life and fastest charger in the world and only paid$489.00!..everything about this phone is great and with recent updates it's even better.. honestly I'm just so pleased with this OP3T and I will be loyal supporter of One Plus...
watching this on a oneplus 2
Fulvio Rabbito on marshmallow 😂
Guys you forgot that you aren't supposed to publish this until after the release event.
Verge Exclusive
my op3 was a tank, I dropped like 10 times until it finally broke on me. now I'm on a S8 but it's a lagfest I'm really considering the op5
amazing video this is
this not just plain old "ok there r the specs of the phone"
the video digs much deeper, the behind the scenes.
well absolutely loved the story of 1+5
I wish every technology video / review was like this.
loved it amazing job guys...
I'll do my part by liking n sharing the video !!
"You are most probably watching this on your phone"
me: Nope
"Your phone is probably from one of 2 companies"
me: Nope
Well this is going well
MrGriffman63 i was watching on my potato and now i am triggered
MrGriffman63 Keyword: "Probably"
At 5:53 the one from the right would've been the best design IMO, much better than the iPhone copy that they went with.
Iuli S. George then it looks like a mix between huawei mate 9 and oneplus 3t lol, I still agree though
4:12 damn i wish all phone companies released images of previous designs of their current phones
"If you're not willing to bet your sanity on creating something as perfect as possible, then it's going to be difficult to make a really great product"
A pretty powerfull and unique way to think imo
I don't know what to say! I am confused😓
There there, it will all be ok soon when the phone is in your hands...
Anand Rao aye matching logos
raghu radha Yo!
I loved the design of the 3T better. But that's just my OCD.
Shinto Mathew Shibu its a lot better dan dis crap
Focussing on the camera - killing OIS. Great.
Gotta love their honesty and humbleness.. kudos 1+
i dont want to walk around with an iPhone clone.
Zaki A So don't...
Zaki A nah it will be gr8 fooling people thinking its an iphone.
Tr1angle and then they roast you for not being able to afford an iPhone
Betternet haha that's true, but look at my situation: I had an iPhone 6S Plus and instead of upgrading to an iPhone 7 or 8 I'm looking forward to the OnePlus, not because of the price but because I like a clean android experience and the Pixel isn't even available in my country. So I think it's the phone that's suits me better. But I really don't want to walk around with an OnePlus 7 😭
dont put so much emphasis on what people think
This....sadly looks like iPhone 7 plus
D N A minus the price
EXACTLY!!!
no you're wrong, the logo is different😉
hopefully it performs just as well. then it would be a nice price drop
I don't understand why people make such a big deal that phones look very similar in design. Good design is often iterative, and must take into consideration design cues that people are familiar with. This is part of why apple just keeps recycling the same basic interface and button lay out. To appreciate the differences devices have to offer, you have to look beyond superficial details. Sort of like how all laptops and TVs look the same, but we know there can be substantial differences in user experience and performance.
Still using the OnePlus One, still love it. Loyal to a great product.
4:51 This mans wearing crocs fr bruhhh😂😂😂
Oh boy I don't want them to rise their price. The reason I moved from nexus to OP was because of their expensive $600+ models...
How much money did the Verge take to sponsor this video?
From the very starting, you claim it to be a small underdog company defining rules. Actually, if you research, One Plus is part of Oppo group so they dont have just 140 employees or small budget, they are big experienced guys utilizing the marketing propoganda.
$0
Phil Esposito +$1000000

That huge Windows 7 desktop at 0:40 craked me up
Watching this from my oneplus 5 and really satisfied with the phone. Great effort oneplus team!!
watching with my Nexus 5 :l
Francisco Javier Valdez
me too. :)
Francisco Javier Valdez same here
I'm actually still pretty satisfied with mine :) just gotta change the battery some time. It still is very usable and does everything that I want from a phone.
I won't buy a new phone this year.
Ludix147 The battery drains too fast. I've changed mine since I got the phone which was just someone after it's launch.
Francisco Javier Valdez Still living in 2013?

Thanks Dan and The Verge staff for making this video. I'm looking forward to the launch of the OnePlus 5!
2:15 Correction, here in Finland, people may "accidentally" buy a Oneplus because it's advertised on the streets and sold for MSRP or under by one of the biggest local carriers. Gotta love my country for being good with tech :)
I hope that OnePlus does really well for the OnePlus 5 because the OnePlus 3 and 3T were good phones with really fast charging, but the camera wasn't able to compete well against Apple, Samsung, and even Google. I'm not saying that OnePlus is getting bankrupt, but Apple and Samsung have been dominating the phone market for a long time and there needs to be some more completion from smaller companies like OnePlus to make a difference and sell phones.
Why are you saying 'even google', while the camera of the pixel (and pixel xl) is actually the best smartphone camera for photos currently available? (video is not as good but still great)
Google Pixel takes way better pics than either Samsung or Apple...
Edernim actually, that honour goes to HTC's U11
"small" , they are owned by the fifth largest smartphone manfacture. They are defintely not small.
Oneplus 3t looked way better than Oneplus 5.
I would love to hang out with the Imaging Director. Seems like a chill dude.
Last year complaint is the camera. This year is the design. Now we know the main feature of Oneplus 6.
great video. really interesting
wassup em
Congratulations One Plus, you managed to make the IPhone 7.
At 0:40 the electronic bill board is just a windows (7) desktop over 3 giant panels.
I wish all the very best for the company. I am sure your company deserves that spot where other competitors are aiming for
What bothers me is that apple fanboys are here saying op5 is a copy of iphone but they were not complaining when apple copied HTC to create the iphone in first place.
*-iph-* *one* *-seven-* *plus*
OnePlus Five
Six
So glad I went ahead and got the Galaxy S8+ now that I see that the OP5 will not have a bezel-less display. I wish it had the amount of RAM as the OP5 (or 3, 3T) however.
Bought a 1+3 last year and am going to keep it at least for a couple of years. It is a brilliant piece of hardware.
Actually I'm watching this on a pixel XL... :/
I think it's better anyway lol
Nick Darnell bezel lover :-)
Nick Darnell it’s and original
Watching in S A M S U N G
Everyone, who doesn't has the iPhone, has a Samsung.
I have op3
David Moreno-Fley no.
Okay this looks almost like another season of small empire. I think we need more of this kind of video to see what's behind other products or manufacturer.
What i hate about my oneplus 3 is the camera bump and the easy-scratchable metal surrounfing it. Oneplus 5 camera bump is smaller now but still has the plastic-metal ish surrounding it.
The display seems interesting! I feel small curves exist on the sides.😍
Thumbs up if you'll get the Oneplus 5.

If they go higher with the price they directly competing with the big boys. And they will 100% lose that fight. They already coming dangerously close to lg territory.
Balmor M I would never consider shitty bloated ugly LG for the same price as OnePlus which has no bloat, faster reactions and better look. Get over it. Not everyone shares your opinion and OnePlus will sell millions because what it is.
it's kinda intersting how phone are now compared by 📷, makes you look back on how quietly the megapixel craze ended. Like how some user actually change from back and forth apple samsung based on witch camera they prefer!
hi the verge! same day as my birthday for the launch day of one plus 5. hoping to get one from you guys. fan from the Philippines
I’d rather have the pixel
And you'd rather pay an inflated price for "Google" branding
this is having a price bump too? and no I bought mine second hand for £450
Nexionic it's still inflated buddy, its basically a op3T wearing Google badge. and Are you comparing a used phone to a retail pirced one?
Do you think I care?
Nexionic never said you do
I'm looking elsewhere.
the best line ever told about any product - no one ever buys a oneplus by mistake. this is what most consumers end up doing and then they finLly research before buying
Considering buying the OnePlus 5, while the 3t just went out of stock.
Any recommendations or hints?
