If you're wondering why the smartphone manufacturer is bypassing OnePlus 4, it's just because of some superstitious belief that the number 'four' is assumed to be unlucky in China, and not due to any marketing strategy or technical issues. The rumored OnePlus 5 smartphone might hit the market in the second half of 2017 and is expected to sport a ceramic body. Also making the device dedicated to the advanced smartphone user, the Snapdragon 835 powered OnePlus will be released at the approx. price point of Rs. 29,000.
