The camera in OnePlus One is not only able to capture great photographs but is also a perfect video camera substitute. It lets users record clips in 4K resolution (limited to 4 and a half minutes in length), 120fps 720p slow-motion video, 60fps 1080p video and also create timelapse video as shown below.

Final Words

We are left quite impressed by what the OnePlus One is capable of. The phone does have a few major problems such as the yellow banding of the screen (as highlighted in the vide0) but it’s strengths seems to shadow all the weaknesses.
