- Traditionally all the one plus apps like weather app, clock app, gallery app had to be updated with a official all in one OTA update but now in the new Oxygen OS they can be updated individually from the play store.
- A newly added feature called the Gaming Do Not Disturb enables you to play all your games without any distractions related to messages, and other notifications.

Camera
One Plus has placed a dual rear camera setup on this device. The company is working hard to improve the camera since they have launched the one plus 5. Changes to the rear camera from the one plus 5 includes a camera to focus more upon the low light conditions. The setup has 16 MP + 20 MP cameras which offer professional modes like Portrait Mode, Slow Motion Mode, Time Lapse Mode, Panorama Mode, HDR Mode with other modes as well.
One plus is competing with the best flagship smartphones of the market, Iphone X, Google Pixel 2 and to win over them I think this much improvements aren’t enough. To most of the people buying this device the camera will meet up their expectations and can definitely be considered as a strong point for One Plus 5T.
If you look into the selfie camera, you would find some modes like HDR Mode in a 16 MP camera with a screen flash, these features are already above all our expectations.

The facial recognition sensor is lighting fast and super accurate, it can detect even your most wired look that you can ever have.
Water Resistance
Company does not claims the device to be water resistant but during the test which we had performed, we found that if in future accidently if you dropped your device in water don’t worry it can resist water.

The foam and the red strip is placed in the smartphone so that the device can avoid water. We also found that the device is water resistant to a IP67 rated device.

The battery backup of the second variant is comparatively lesser. The battery of the smartphone is 3300mAh. The os which is powered by Oxygen OS plays an important role in powering the smartphone. Due to the battery efficient OS the battery is able to power the device for around almost a day.
