OnePlus 5 Plagued by Jelly Scrolling Effect
The OnePlus 5 seems to be plagued by what is now called the Jelly Scrolling effect. OnePlus claims its a 'natural' effect. But that almost looks like laggy low FPS non-vsync scrolling. When you scroll through content it seems to stretch, and it's not officially known what the cause of it is.
The effect is now described as jelly scrolling, oneplus in a statement says:
The OnePlus 5 uses the same level of high-quality components as all OnePlus devices, including the AMOLED display. We've received feedback from a small number of users saying that at times they notice a subtle visual effect when scrolling. This is natural and there's no variance in screens between devices.
The manufacturer claims it happens only with a small number of people, but that should be rewritten as: only a small number of people reported it to oneplus. The oneplus 5 was released this week.
OnePlus fiddling around with a super laggy display problem on its flagship, and claiming it’s “natural” and normal, come on now.

I saw this story yesterday on Reddit, and I too instantly thought to myself "It looks like they forgot to turn on V-sync." ...We'll have to wait and see what they do to fix it; I'm still on the OnePlus One, and plan to keep it for a few more years.

Is this "feature" listed anywhere like website/box/manual/prior release info? No?
Last time i checked, for the same make/model, features are identical.
Especially if only some phones experience it, it's NOT a feature,
but a defect of some kind.
Just a lame excuse from the maker.
Guess they don't like the idea of ppl returning phones in large numbers.

I don't know, the effect is barely noticeable and I'm actually growing on it. I showed it to a few friends which were asking me about the issue and they didn't notice it until I pointed them out what to really look for and even then they were like "yeah, I guess it does have some little effect".
I find it perfectly plausible that there's a lot of people that just don't notice this at all.
It doesn't bother me the slightest, but I'm also curious about what's going on here.

As others said, it looks like an intentional effect.
"looks like non-vsync scrolling" - HH
No, it doesn't. Did you even watch the video?
If it was a display problem then it would manifest in other activities, like watching video or animations in games.
This is like saying "Black Ops has a major graphics bug! When you pull up your scope the graphics get blurry!"
