I went with a Moto G5 Plus due to the OnePlus 5 being a little out of my price range.
Everyone talks about what features the OnePlus 5 is missing. I'm more interested in what features the next phone (OnePlus 6 I presume) could do without. I'd like to see it get back down in the $300 range.
First of all, it really only needs 4GB of RAM. I know plentiful RAM is one of their trademark features, but going past 4GB, I just don't think there is any return on that investment.
Next, I'm not sure the dual camera setup is doing that much for it. If you really require that last 3% of camera quality, you are probably going to buy an iPhone, GS8 or G6.
Last on my list, the chip. Wouldn't a snapdragon 630 or 660 satisfy most people?
Any other features that could be trimmed to make this phone more affordable?
