OnePlus has carved out a nice niche for itself over the past couple of years. The company’s never been too preoccupied with the rush toward bleeding-edge tech. Instead, it’s worked to provide consumers with one of the best deals in smartphones. And the newly announced 5T is firmly inline with that mission statement.

The phone hits retail here in the U.S. and Europe on November 21st, bringing with it a 6.01-inch AMOLED display with an 18:9 aspect ratio. The handset ditches the front-facing fingerprint reader (moving it to the rear of the device) to accomplish this. The 5T is also the first OnePlus device to offer up unlocking through facial recognition and Portrait Mode. If all of this sounds familiar, it’s because it’s what all of the cool kids have been doing for a little while already.
