I'm waiting for this. Seems like good value and I could justify it for a backup device.
Couple of rumours suggested a 5-inch display, which I'd personally prefer. The OPX was nice in terms of form factor whereas the OP2 was only let down by the camera (much like the X).
I'm hoping they can take the X design and add the standard 2016 flagship specs with a good camera experience. At £250-£280 I'd take it.
New leak from Evan Blass...
Kinda like this design.

so agree on the camera being centered! OCD rules!Looks fantastic.
I do not like when cameras are centered like that though. It's a personal OCD if you will.
Screen looks fantastic with minimal bezels though.
3,000mAh battery Not impressed, based on the previous OnePlus's having pretty beefy sized batteries for their time. The OPO had a 3,100mAh battery, when other flagships were like 2,600mAh that that time, and the OPT has a 3,300mAh battery, where most last year had like 2,800mAh.
My point being, this year the flagships have 3,000mAh batteries, I would have liked to see the OnePlus Three have something like 3,500mAh minimum, or match the S7 Edge 3,600mAh battery. But 3,000mAh isn't anything special whatsoever.
Plus not a fan of the fingerprint scanner looking just like a Samsung phone, I prefer it to match the Nexus line, on the back of the phone, and make the front of the phone cleaner and cooler looking. And the Oxygen OS is just meh, and OPO has been super slow with updates, being several months late after Nexus devices get updated, even HTC, LG, Sony and Motorola have beat OPO as far as much faster updates. And then the BS "invite" system to get the phone.
No thanks, I'd take a Nexus 6P over this OnePlus Three any day of the week, and pretty soon the 6P will have a price drop, getting close to the Three's price range.
true.....but ONLY if you use their charger. Out and about or in your car...not so good.Bruh. It charges in 15 minutes.
I don't believe this is going to actually be as simple as people think. There will either be caveats to limiting the use OR there are going to be a lot of damaged phones in the first 30 days. Hate to say this, but since this is a Chinese based company with little in the way of QA and customer service based on their past phones, they may not care. I for one do not trust this company.Bruh. It charges in 15 minutes.
That small battery for a large device is a deal killer. One of the reasons I do like larger 5.5" + sized phones is that they come with extra large battery sizes. Like the S7 Edge with a 3,600mAh battery or Nexus 6P with a 3,450mAh battery, and gets fantastic longevity and stamina for battery life. But just a 3,000mAh battery in the OnePlus Three is a major disappointment.
Exactly. If i can get 4-5 hours SOT in a day on my HTC 10, I would expect 5-6 on a 1080p screen.The screen resolution is 1080p though.
