OnePlus 5 vs iPhone 7 Plus – the clone beats the master

OnePlus 5 and iPhone 7 Plus appear today in a new performance test that confirms again the fact that the Chinese smartphone is faster than Apple's. In the video clip below you can see again that the iPhone 7 Plus is no longer the fastest smartphone on the planet, this title being stolen by the OnePlus 5 thanks to the performance it offers for customers.

The one who did the test blames the iOS animations for the fact that the iPhone 7 Plus is slower than the OnePlus 5, the difference between the two terminals in the test being 7 seconds. Although it seems small, the difference is visible in the daily use of OnePlus 5 and iPhone 7 Plus, and this matters in the general experience of using the terminals, so we cannot say that it is about something imperceptible.

Even if the OnePlus 5 wins thanks to the smaller animations in Android, the problem with the iPhone 7 Plus lies with Apple, which should give up the bad animations. Of course, the reduce motion function can be activated to get rid of many of the useless animations in the iPhone 7 Plus, this also improves the battery life, but by default the OnePlus 5 surpasses the Apple smartphone.

With this test, it becomes "official" that the OnePlus 5 is faster than the iPhone 7 Plus, regardless of the explanations that can be offered for this. Of course, this "reign" of the OnePlus 5 in the top of smartphones, in terms of performance, will be short-lived, and the iPhone 8 will undoubtedly surpass it.
