OnePlus 3 shows up on AnTuTu, will be a Snapdragon 820 phone


We’ve already seen a couple Chinese phone makers in Xiaomi and Letv (LeEco) dish out Snapdragon 820 phones, and OnePlus might just be the next with the OnePlus 3.

However, a much larger section of the international audience should be able to get their hands on the OnePlus 3 as compared to the Xiaomi Mi 5 or the Le Max Pro.

Coming to the subject of this article: OnePlus 3 specifications, which leaked thanks to AnTuTu (which is a popular benchmarking app, if you aren’t aware). Here’s what the listing has to tell us about the phone: a 1920 x 1080p display, Snapdragon 820 processor, 4GB RAM, 16 mega-pixel rear camera, 8 mega-pixel front facing camera, 32GB ROM and a model number A3000.

Some might be disappointed to see only a 1080p display on the OnePlus 3, as suggested by the leaks. OnePlus have been known to use OPPO’s designs, and it is likely that the OnePlus 3 and the OPPO Find 9 share a bit in common. This could also explain the 1080p screen; OPPO’s versions could come with higher res ones (as in the case of the OnePlus One/Find 7).

OnePlus have traditionally attacked their competitors with super aggressive pricing. Expect the OnePlus 3 to attempt to pull off something similar.

What would you pay for a phone with the above mentioned specs?

    A lot of these companies are starting to realize that screens above FHD aren’t needed for displays this small. They don’t look any better and are a waste of resources. I am actually very interested in the OP3, first time I have ever looked forward to one of their phones. But to win me as my customers they need to do two things: finally make a phone that isn’t thicker than a dictionary and ditch the invite system.

      The invite system ain’t gonna happen.

        Lol, then they won’t be getting Balco as a customer.

          Lol. 😀

          I know you love 1080 and have seen you saying anything above that for a 5-5.5 inch phone is a power sucker. Let’s see how this turns out.

          And BTW… I didn’t change my S2 yet. It survived a 5 second dip in water. I respect it even more now. 😉

          You might win the OP4!!!

          I applied for the OP1 long time ago, wrote 1 single post in their forum and got the invite worth for the OP2! Lol, I’m not kidding.

        One Plus are famous for the invite system more than their phones! 😛

          That sounds funny but it’s actually accurate

      Look at this, if you still have it this might come in handy…

      and to add..just give a great camera phone..Mi5 dissapointed on that

      • balcobomber25
        March 26, 2016

        I think that still remains to be seen. Xiaomi will spend the next few months optimizing the camera.

    will be a dual sim?

    Maybe another disappointment like the Xiaomi Snail5, now days mid-high devices are way more interesting than the so called flagships.

    • balcobomber25
      March 25, 2016

      The only thing disappointing with the Mi5 is the looks, other than that it is a beast of a phone and a great overall value.

        Personal Opinion, i like the looks of the black version. (Fingerprint shape looks bad but i can live with that).

        And ill be getting the Mi5 Pro version soon. 🙂

    This is probably the 64gb Ver. Display says 5inch. Might be wrong.

      The display size is usually wrong on that.

      • HBK
        March 25, 2016

        I know.

        P.S – But maybe OP is going for 5 inch flagship this time around, while Oppo goes for 5.5 or 6 inch flagship.

        • balcobomber25
          March 25, 2016

          I doubt it, they have the OPX for their sub 5.5 inch line. There will probably be a OPX 2 at some point.

    I hope the display is better than the one in the OP2, as that one cut a few corners.

    B20?

    O hope for an Onplus X successor with Helio P20.

    OP3 the worst support you will ever experience.

      I wanted to say OP as company, not OP3

  8. Roberto Tomás

    Im not disappointed by the 1080p 🙂 Hopefully that means <$400 .. at a xiaomi mi5-competitive price and support for 4g lte in the US market, it would … well, it would be my next phone

    Yo where is android 6 for OPO?

  10. Joel Adames
    March 25, 2016

    I don’t care much… Now I’m hooked on the 2k bandwagon… So I will want it as much as possible. Has any one with a mtk X10 got a better than 65k on antutu ?
    I haven’t but my user sperience running multiple apps and heavy games have been all great from my blue pure xl version of the GIONEE ELIFE E8. today I got an update which I plan to enjoy. Maybe balco has it.
    But as VR seems to be a thing that might stick in for a while then I guess I do want 2K on any phone I ran into if I’m not to tight in my budget (that means zopo s8 or something similar until a better offer comes by)

    I’m starting to lose faith in oneplus, flagship killer used to mean something but with the oneplus 2 it was more flop…Let’s hope 3 with us something to want at a price we cannot believe

    I hope the price is not too steep and 5.5″ is really a good size for current smartphone.

    I also hope the price will be sub $300 because china online re-seller will jack off the price again so i cannot imagine if the original price is $400 then how much they will sell *sigh* cheap smartphone become expensive by then.

    OnePlus2 was a big disaster since OnePlus never listen to the reviewer that all proved SD820 is overheating and badly throttle down.

    • Wolvie

      Sorry should be SD810 that was overheating.

      But i did hear SD820 also got rumor overheat and throttle down. Maybe it is true or maybe it is rumor i am not sure.
