OnePlus 5 - surpasses Galaxy S8 and iPhone 7 in performance

The OnePlus 5 surpasses the Samsung Galaxy S8 in terms of performance and would even surpass the iPhone 7 Plus, a first test revealing this.

OnePlus 5 was officially presented on Tuesday and we are talking about a new Android smartphone that has a selling price of only 470 dollars. OnePlus 5 is a premium Android smartphone that has top components, but it seems that it also has top performance, according to a first performance test made by a French reviewer.

In the video clip below you can see what kind of performance the OnePlus 5 has compared to the Samsung Galaxy S8, the terminal succeeding in surpassing the Samsung product. We are talking about a big difference in performance in favor of the OnePlus 5, as many people probably expected, considering the amount of RAM integrated in the Chinese smartphone.

You can see in the video clip below that the OnePlus 5 keeps open in the background all the applications that are open during the test, while the Samsung Galaxy S8 can't really do that. The OnePlus 5 completes the test in one minute and 30 seconds, the best time obtained by any smartphone in a test of this kind, even better than that of the iPhone 7 Plus.

Given the result, it is expected that the OnePlus 5 will be faster than the iPhone 7 Plus in real-world usage tests, and that is a remarkable achievement. The iPhone 7 Plus is the fastest smartphone on the planet at the moment, and the OnePlus 5 could dethrone it, which quite a few people expected anyway.
