OnePlus all but shows what the OnePlus 5 looks like (at least from the back)

OnePlus isn’t a company that keeps its secrets that close to the chest. Back when the OnePlus 2 was announced, they revealed the new features of the phone ahead of its launch. So, when a leaked image of the OnePlus 5’s top half of its rear shows up, the company releases a high-resolution version of the image that shows the dual-camera setup, the mute switch, and what it’ll look like on top. OnePlus attaches to the image the tagline “Dual Camera. Clearer Photos.” And we have to say it looks eerily similar to the new iPhones. OnePlus is unveiling its new flagship on June 20 at 12 p.m. EDT.

A glitch seems to have affected Amazon earlier and ended up showing shoppers dog photos instead of product pages they were looking for. Shoppers in the U.S. home page got a message "Sorry something went wrong on our end" with a different picture of a dog each time. The outage seems to have happened around 2 p.m. Pacific Time yesterday. The cause of it unknown and Amazon hasn't commented yet on the matter. The outage seemed to have affected large parts of the Northeast and West Coast of the US. With Amazon considered as a big supplier of web servers, having outages like this will draw attention to them.
