AnTuTu shows that the smartphone has model reference number OnePlus A3000. It shows to be running Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow right out of the box. The chip under the hood is a Snapdragon 820 paired up with 4GB of RAM. An Adreno 530 GPU handles graphics.
Another important feature to note is the fact that it will still ship with a FHD display, meaning no QHD. Some may argue that a phone in 2016 should have a QHD display, but others will claim it isn’t worth the strain on battery and performance, so we’ll leave that up to you.
The last device from OnePlus was the OnePlus 2 that launched last summer. The big deal with that smartphone was that it sold unlocked for $329. OnePlus 2 buyers got a 5.5-inch screen, so we can expect at least that size screen or larger on the OnePlus 3. That 5.5-inch unit on the OnePlus 2 shared the same 1920 x 1080 resolution that benchmarks list for the new device. The big irritation for buyers of the previous OnePlus device in the US was that shipping was delayed compared to the rest of the world, perhaps OnePlus will address those shipping delays this time out.
