ONEPLUS 3 The flagship killer, again

The best feature of this phone is its camera, comparable with the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge

If you are the sort who likes to flaunt a phone, then the OnePlus 3 could be a really good option. It is stylish, but without being flashy. It is metallic, but without being blingy. This is a phone that understand­s the value of being subtle. And despite the resemblanc­e to some other devices, it is also unique in more ways than one. That camera module, the notificati­ons toggle, or just the curved edges… there is a lot you will love about this phone. The Full HD (480 dpi) display of the OnePlus 3 will keep you more than happy. The screen can be bright enough to work well even under the harsh Delhi sun.

I haven’t experience­d any stalls or stutters. I have done most things a regular user would from multi-tab browsing to multitaski­ng and the OnePlus 3 has been able to handle all of that well. There is a hint of heat at times, especially when you are working online, but the phone has not heated up. The 6 GB RAM on the phone also comes in handy when you are playing heavy duty games.

For me, the best feature of this phone has to be its camera. OnePlus has always excelled with its cameras, and the third edition takes it to a whole new level. The kind of detail available on this phone is incredible and puts it right there next to the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge or the LG G5. But given that this phone will cost half of its competitor­s, I am inclined to say this is the best Android camera around. The phone offers a lot of controls in the manual mode and for those who like to play with The OnePlus 3, at the moment, appears to be a serious flagship killer as the brand has always intended its smartphone­s to be. It has at least one feature which even top flagships haven’t offered users at the moment; that is 6 GB RAM. Plus, in my books, it offers the best Android camera, comparable with the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. I would buy the phone just for its camera.
