Earlier today, we reported that the upcoming OnePlus flagship smartphone may carry a model number of A5000 as it has been spotted on the website of the Chinese State Radio Regulation Committee (SRRC). Now, some leaked images of the alleged OnePlus 5 case have appeared to reveal that the flagship phone may come with dual rear cameras.
Sources from China have claimed that the OnePlus 5 will indeed arrive with a dual rear camera setup and what we see here are the first images of its protective case. However, we advise our readers to take this rumor with a pinch of salt because the alleged OnePlus 5 case appears quite generic and there is no information available yet on the design of the OnePlus 5 smartphone.
Leading Chinese smartphone brands like Huawei, Vivo, and LeEco are now selling phones with dual rear cameras. Xiaomi too is expected to introduce dual rear camera on Xiaomi Mi 6. Having a twin rear camera feature would certainly allow the OnePlus to rival these brands in the camera department.
