[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] cheesechocolate:
I'm still undecided.

I'm only waiting for my conclusion on two potential issues:

1. GPS connectivity and accuracy. It matters to me as I drive a lot. Almost for a living.

2. Android Pay. Still have to give it a try.

What I like -

Speed! Everything opens so quickly. I had a Note 5 earlier and the difference is so noticeable. This is especially useful for me while driving as I don't have to take my eyes off the road for a long time and everything is buttery smooth. Probably the best android experience I could ask for. I've been using a Note 5 and believe you me, they always get slower and laggy as time passes. Thank touchwiz for that.

Fingerprint sensor - Again contributes to the speed. Probably one of the best out there. Also, I want the fingerprint sensor either to be embedded into the display or in the front. I can't deal with a sensor on the back.

Design and feel - Feels so much better than the iPhone and a pleasure to hold. Who gives a cr*p that it looks like an iPhone. I mean seriously? Are we that shallow to be effected by a phone's resemblance to another phone? It's so much easier to handle than an iPhone 7 plus.

Audio output - My cheapo $7 Skullcandy give me the best audio quality I've ever heard with this phone. Imagine what you'll get with a good quality expensive earphones!

Near stock Android/Oxygen OS - This is probably the best implementation of android out there.

8GB RAM - That RAM kills it! Apps install so fast and open so fast. I don't think I can ever get used to a 'slower' experience again.

Dash charge - The fastest charging times out there. Again a huge factor for those always on the move. Even the regular charge time using the standard car charger is pretty snappy.

Battery life - No bloatware means really great battery life. I'm getting screen-on times of 5+ hours. Lasts me an entire work day very easily.

Display - The 1080p display is pretty good and the fact I like about it is that it barely sips battery. I can turn the display on repeatedly without feeling guilty about battery power left.

What I don't like -

Camera - Obviously could have beet better. However, I don't really use the camera a lot and even on the Note 5 I rarely used the camera. So I can live with it. For whatever little I would use, this camera will suffice. Front camera is much better though, for those of you who are into selfies and video calling.

No option to schedule DND - Now I have to develop the habit of sliding the alert slider every night before I go to sleep. It's a nuisance but not a deal-breaker at all. I tried to work a tasker profile but it conflicts with the slider.

Price - $540. At this price, oneplus is stretching it. I believe phones should be worth the cost and that's the thing I ask myself before I buy a phone. I believe we're at a point where spending anything more than this on a phone is not a wise purchase decision. To borrow a quote from MKBHD, "Good phones are getting cheap and cheap phones are getting good." So it's upto us to find that sweet spot where a phone is good, yet cheap.

Will I keep it? I don't know. I want to. I am a sucker for speed and this phone delivers it, and how! There's very little I don't like about this phone and most of it is something I can live with. Now tt depends on the GPS thingy and Android Pay.

It's a trade-off. How badly do you want, say phone speed vs camera? Display vs Battery? Personally, I don't care about the camera. I care about speed. I take like two pictures in a week unless I'm on vacation and even then, I mostly use DSLR or my gf's iPhone 7 plus. I interact with my phone about 8 hrs a day. For me, a slow phone or event the very appearance of any kinda lag is a big big downer.
