I’m only seeing good reviews about this phone and it’s great to see something this good coming in at the ‘affordable’ part of the pricing spectrum. It’s not a flagship phone but delivers more than enough in all categories, sometimes too much, with 6 cameras overall!
For a mid-range phone, there really isn’t much missing here. You still get NFC, the same in-screen optical fingerprint reader as every other phone, and OnePlus’ fantastic 30W quick charging. Compared to a flagship phone, the big list of missing features would be the aforementioned single speaker instead of stereo, no wireless charging, and no official water-resistance rating.
The battery is a 4,100mAh which is reasonable enough. Of course with Apple launching their iPhone SE at only $400 they’re going to squeeze the Android market, which is a good thing. We need better bang for the buck, and not more $1,500 phones.

90Hz, modern design, and a $450 price? Awesome.
