Finding a compatible fast charging cable for this phone is a pain in the as$. if the original cable is gone then pretty much you are srewed.
I bought the phone used from a colleague in January 2019, now in September 2023 it's showing signs of age: random hangs, sometimes for up to 10 seconds. Just now I went to About Phone in the settings, and it first hung, then the screen went black for about 5 seconds before it showed the settings. I could do a factory reset, but I'm fairly sure the problems would return soon. Up to now it's been my best phone in 20 years of being a mobile user.
I bought in 2017 & phone is working fine, just outdated by software & slow.

A few weeks ago I replaced the battery, original charging cable was damaged and I bought it from online store taobao China, from 2017, the original two chargers are working well.
however, last year bought s22+ but due to heating issue trade back to Samsung, s22+ is good phone, bought Oneplus 8 working ok some software bugs, then this year bought 23 ultra, the device is so good but big & heavy, also sold it, now using OP5t light weight than others available models in the market.
OP 8 is using a family member, I notice Oneplus phones wifi antenna is strong compared to Iphone 14 series , Samsung 23 Ultra, if i see in the list 10 wifi router names, but on the OP phone 100 names at the same place. IDK what is the reason behind of top phones like Samsung S23U and Iphone 13, 14.
Cons of OP company, re-sales value is almost 0 where I live, replacement repairs are a big trouble because no authentic repair service stores for original parts replacement, don't reply via email or even on the phone, website down sometimes but useless they are only showing their latest models.
But, I would say the android experience with oneplus oxygen ui is cool.
5110, 15 Sep 2022I am facing same issue where the phone shuts down below 25%. Loking at couple of comments here... moreNo, smartphone batteries are estimated to have a life span of 3 years before detoriation hits.
Remember, this battery is at least 6 years old by now. Cells are slowly dying and the amperage is not keeping up in certain cells so the phone dies.
Normally a calibration fixes it, reducing precious battery capacity (mAh) in the process, but it is what it is.
The best you could do is to buy a new battery on a reputable website.

I have purchased the OnePlus 5T in November 2017 and it's still going strong and I could still play BGMI on it. only issue is on top I found pixel burn issue and battery health.
I bought mine in december 2017. It's still working but with some issues. After 3 years or so the stock camera app was crashing so I had to replace it. That new app lasted for about 6 months, then it started crashing too. A bit later the gallery app stopped working, so this was replaced too (free app with annoying adds).
Since I don't want to do a full factory reset, it's what it is. My next phone will be another brand, Oneplus' software stability just isn't the greatest.
I recall this phone having 2x optical zoom, that Im unable to find the specs given in here.

as good as a pixel 5, apart from the camera software (but that's not a problem for my uses) - a really great piece of hardware
