OnePlus 3T vs Samsung Galaxy S7 edge: Flagship killer vs Flagship | Pocketnow

For three consecutive years, OnePlus has defied what a flagship should be, but the question is if it's really good enough to stand against the best. Let's be clear about some specifics first. The OnePlus 3T is not a premium mid-ranger. This is really what makes it special. We have a premium package of hardware and software being sandwiched into a beautiful phone that costs a lot less than your standard flagship. By standard flagship we're talking about the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. This is currently regarded as one of the best smartphones that money can buy in 2016, but we all know that it's actually a lot of money.

title should have been killer flagship vs flagship killer

Who else loves the S7 Edge? Beautiful 1440p screen, wireless fast charge and Samsung pay is phenomenal

[GunnrA]

Every Oneplus 3 and 3t user (3t for me) is saying it's the best phone and they're extremely happy with their decision... Others are just hating on it for no reason and saying the flagships are better? It's all a matter of opinion I guess.

[rogeriepatricio]

Jaime is pushing through One Plus 3. But we have millions users of Galaxy S7 Edge to defend the phone. 😁

[BRUH-xwku]

OnePlus is gonna kick some serious ass in the future.

[lgmarquez]

Love both phones, but if I had to choose one I would choose the s7 edge

[Zapto]

I actually sold my s7 to get the Oneplus 3, 4 days ago, and i don't regret nothing, for me Oneplus 3 is the best phone of 2016.

[lucaportillo]

I got rid of my S7 Edge for the Oneplus 3T and I'm not missing the Samsung at all. Charging sucked on the S7 and it always overheated. Not with the Oneplus. 0-100% in 1 hour and the phone doesnt even get hot. The interface is much better too. I love it.

[Forflies]

Damn so it looks like the 3T is the clear winner considering the price

[cmacjb]

So let me get this straight, the one plus 3t can't wireless charge, not water proof, lacks the screen resolution, no SD card slot, doesn't have the best camera for low light pics, smaller battery and Jamie thinks it matches up against the S7

[applejuice-]

Hey Jaime you really are using your surface! How do you like it?

[hiravparekh]

You can easily find a used s7 edge in mint condition for 430$ or so. I would buy s7 edge. Also not mentioned is s7 edge supports more bands and op3t doesn't even support cdma so carriers like Verizon and sprint are out of question

[saffatbokul]

There is Dual Sim and Exynos processor option which is far better than snapdragon

[HIvanH]

The fact that S7 edge has been out for nearly a year and still regarded as the best smart phone of the year, holding its own against very recent releases such as one plus 3T and iphone 7 speaks volumes of its quality. Samsung really have done an amazing job with the phone!

[callmenose]

I love OnePlus, nothing can change that

[rishabh.patel]

OnePlus 3T vs Samsung Galaxy S7 edge: Flagship Killer vs Flagship Killed. OnePlus 3T all day. Samsung Phones lagggg like crazy after a couple of months

[atulyaaman]

S7e allday everyday. Better display, better camera, SDcard, Better looks and design and ip68. Don't even compare it to op3t ;)

[Lanhoj]

Why compare it to the S7e though...why not the Pixel XL instead?

[kennywoodard]

Unless you need a VR ready phone or the best camera, you have to go 3T here. OnePlus is more durable, charges faster, has cleaner (customizable) software, a faster fingerprint reader, a higher base storage at a lower price, has better audio output, uses USB C, is much quicker with less lag, has better multitasking, etc.

[InfinitEnigma]

Exynos is better than the SD 821 hands down
