Earlier we had few confirmations from OnePlus about its plan to introduce the first 5G smartphone by early 2019. We also had few rumors that OnePlus 7 will not ship with 5G support but will launch a new series.
As per the source, the new OnePlus 5S phone will be powered by the latest SD855 aka 8150 SoC coupled with the new Snapdragon X50 5G NR Modem. Further, the report also claims that it would cost more than the OnePlus 6T.
The new OnePlus 5G phone might cost $649 (Rs.46,500/-) for the base variant which is nearly $100 more than the OnePlus 6T base variant. Anyway, OnePlus 6T successor aka OnePlus 7 is likely to ship with 4G support but there will be a 5G variant too and is expected to further raise the prices later next year.
