As one of the highest profile and best Android flagships around, the Samsung Galaxy S8 is a iPhone 8 Plus LCD screen against which all others must be judged, and the OnePlus 5T is no exception.

Once again positioned as a high-end yet relatively affordable handset, the latest phone from OnePlus has a lot going for it, but is it really a match for the S8?

The OnePlus 5T has an all-metal shell with dimensions of 156.1 x 75 x 7.3mm and it weighs 162g. The Samsung Galaxy S8 meanwhile has a glass back and a metal frame, and comes in at 148.9 x 68.1 x 8mm and 155g, so the OnePlus 5T is slightly longer, wider and heavier than the Galaxy S8, but it’s also slightly slimmer.
