     Glass backs are for LTE radios. 3rd paragraph:

OnePlus joins the vast majority of smartphone manufacturers — companies like Apple, Samsung, Sony, Nokia, LG, and Huawei — in having glass on both the front and the back of its flagship device. I’ve been told by a number of these companies that the general trend has been driven by the requirements of faster and more advanced LTE, making it increasingly difficult to produce a phone with a metal back.

Or the link in the article which contains OnePlus's rationalization for the notch?

The discontent around notches tends to lack an understanding of the technical limitations that Pei set out for me in our meeting. From the perspective of an Android phone maker, there’s no viable “notch, but no chin” option. The bottom bezel is fixed in place and all you can do to optimize your design is reduce the top bezel by turning it into a notch instead of a full-width bar. It’s a more efficient use of space, and in Pei’s words, “it’s a very clear decision: more real estate for the user. In conclusion, learn to love the notch.”

..“We saw the implementation [of gestures] on the iPhone,” admits Pei, and “maybe it would have taken longer if Apple hadn’t done it.” He has the same answer when I ask him whether OnePlus would have done a notch design had it not been for the iPhone X: “Maybe not as fast. But we have access to the roadmaps of all the screen manufacturers, and when they gave us the opportunity to make cutouts at the top of the screen, it just made sense.” OnePlus agrees with the widely held view that Apple “accelerates the adoption of things within the industry,” adding the subtle caveat of “where it makes sense.”

...Apple’s exotic solution to that was to use a flexible OLED screen that curves internally and thus pushes the ribbon connection toward the back. Pei explains that this approach makes the phone thicker and, understandably, more expensive.
