OnePlus 5 teasers are picking up pace, hinting that the launch is very near. And now an internal mail leak brings us a possible launch date of the device. In an email to the employees, OnePlus outlines the publicity required for the OnePlus 5 ahead of the launch, which is stated as June 15.
This purported internal email was published on Weibo, and if it is legit, the OnePlus 5 is set to launch on June 15, which is just two weeks from now. Ahead of the launch, the OnePlus 5 has been teased on multiple occasions, confirming the arrival of the Snapdragon 835 SoC, possible four colour variants, and a better camera.
OnePlus is ditching the number four moniker to launch the OnePlus 5 right after the OnePlus 3T. As per leaks, the OnePlus 5 is expected to sport a vertical dual camera setup at the rear, a patterned back, a metal edge, and a Home Button at the front that presumably will house the fingerprint sensor.
Ahead of the launch, the Chinese company has announced OnePlus Referral programme under which each of your friends will receive $20 off towards the purchase of any accessory when they buy a OnePlus smartphone via the official store. The ones who shared their unique referral link with friends will get 100 referral points. As of now, the referral program hasn’t started in India yet.
The Chinese company earlier this week officially also announced that it will discontinue the OnePlus 3T, and it’s currently selling last few stocks. For the Indian market, the company, however, said that the OnePlus 3T (both 64GB and 128GB variants) will continue to be available for purchase in India until later this year.
Apart from the processor, OnePlus 5 is expected to feature a 5.5-inch QHD (1440×2560 pixels) display. The successor to OnePlus 3T has been suggested to come with 64GB built-in storage, which will be expandable via microSD card (up to 128GB).
