The OnePlus 3T has been in house for a good week or so now and it’s bringing back very similar vibes to the OnePlus 3, which makes sense since they are both so similar. Those are good vibes, by the way, as the original OnePlus 3 was already one of our favorite phones of the year. So what’s with the OnePlus 3T? Should you be mad about it’s existence so soon or excited that a company was able to improve a phone this quickly? Maybe a bit of both, but I’d lean towards the latter.
The video will go into great detail on all of this, but if you couldn’t tell from the opening, I’m a big fan of the OnePlus 3T, just like I was the OnePlus 3. The phone comes with almost everything you need in a modern flagship, yet has a price that is extremely hard to ignore.
You get the metal body and premium finishes, like an alert slider. You get the newest Snapdragon 821 processor with 6GB RAM, up to 128GB storage, an excellent fingerprint reader, nice 1080P AMOLED display, and one of the best Android experiences on the block. I honestly have little to complain about, especially knowing that Nougat will be here in weeks.
My few complaints are the same as they were on the OnePlus 3. The camera isn’t up there with the Pixel or Galaxy S7 (or even G5), plus you don’t have a microSD slot, water resistance, wireless charging, or a QHD display. It’s also only a GSM phone, so Verizon and Sprint folks are out of luck.
