OnePlus is busy working on its upcoming OnePlus 5 flagship and it seems that the company has launched a poll and is encouraging fans to vote on the retail box design for the upcoming phone. The poll can be found on one of China’s biggest social networks, Weibo.

OnePlus is offering 8 options to users for the OnePlus 5 design, including five featuring the box in the color white, while three show the box in the color red. All suggestions have the letter 5 at the front, while the number could be faded, 3D, or the box could actually come with landscape orientation.

One of the suggestions includes the words “Hello 5” on the front of the box, possibly hinting at the official slogan of the new premium smartphone. Anyone can vote on one design for the retail box, but before doing so, users will have to log into their Weibo account.

Dual-camera setup and Snapdragon 835 on the new OnePlus phone

OnePlus 5 has leaked in a number of reports recently and some of the phone’s specs are known. The device is expected to come with a dual-camera setup on the back, developed in partnership with DxO Mark. It will also run the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 platform and come with 6GB of RAM, together with a 5.5-inch Full HD display.

The phone’s battery capacity will be higher than 3,000mAh and the OnePlus 5 is expected to come with a 3.5mm headphone jack and 64 or 128GB of internal storage. Its price tag is rumored to reach about $650 and OnePlus 5 could actually arrive sometime in June or July.

OnePlus has been building up hype around the new smartphone, releasing camera samples and teasing color options for the upcoming device. In addition, the company intends to discontinue the previous flagship, OnePlus 3T, starting June 1 in Europe, so it can focus solely on producing OnePlus 5 units. Moreover, OnePlus launched a referral program in preparation for the release.
