OnePlus 3T Review - the More Affordable Flagship Smartphone

Lisa Gade reviews the latest Android smartphone from OnePlus, the OnePlus 3T. This is an improved version of the OnePlus 3 that was released just 6 months ago. The price has gone up to $439, but you’re getting a faster CPU, bigger battery, higher resolution front camera and higher capacity storage options for that $40 price increase. The phone runs Android 6.01 Marshmallow with OnePlus’ OxygenOS customizations on the 2.35 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 CPU with 6 gigs of RAM and your choice of 64 or 128 gigs of storage. It has a slim and elegant aluminum unibody design available in gunmetal and soft gold.

The 3T’s full HD AMOLED display is bright and colorful and it’s covered with Gorilla Glass 4 that curves at the edges. The phone has LTE 4G and the US version works on GSM carriers like AT&T and T-Mobile (but not CDMA carriers like Sprint and Verizon). It’s unlocked for use with any carrier’s SIM and it has two nano SIM card slots. The OnePlus 3T has dual band WiFi 802.11ac, Bluetooth, GPS with GLONASS and NFC. It has front and rear 16MP cameras with f/2.0 lens. It supports Dash fast charging and has a 3,400 mAh battery. The 3T replaces the OnePlus 3.

Lisa, Dave 2D & MKBHD--- The Holy Trinity of YT Tech reviews!

I somewhat regret my iPhone 7 purchase this past October. Battery life is merely ok and iOS 10 has more bugs than my old 6 ever had. AND I paid $750 for it. I think I would've been better off the saving $300 and getting this to use over the next two years.

Thanks for the review. Can you do a review of the ZTE Axon 7? It would be nice to see a comparison between the Axon 7 and 3T.

I just switched last weekend from iPhone (always have used it) to a Galaxy S7 Edge. Originally I thought I wanted to get the 3T. I still kinda wish I had because I wanted the more stock android experience, but overall the switch to android is going pretty well.

Can you do the hp elite x3 along with its laptop? That would be awesome!

[ROSWELLFERNANDES-dnlr]

Oneplus 3T is the best budget phone and flagship killer

[BIGTOWER]

One of the best reviewers of all time. I want this phone

[RealMeatPie]

Why you all tech reviewers forget about headphone sound quality? In this video you compared the pixel and LGV20 to OnePlus 3T talking about shape and screen differences only.

[amolghodke]

Can we have LG V20 vs OnePlus 3T smackdown?

[Michaelguaylambert]

I love your reviews! You make great shots and a lot of close up so we can have a good idea of the product without even owning it. I also totally agree that a resolution too high is a compromise on the battery! :)

Ps : That DASH T-shirt is AWESOME haha :)

Hi Lisa, I love your videos and watch them almost religiously even though I usually am not in the market for a product but because your presentation and thoroughness is excellent I keep coming back for more.  That said, I will be in the market for an Android phone early next year and I do have a smack down request: Pixel vs 3T, and could you dig a little deeper into the differences between the OS's (ease of use, latency, bloating, etc.)?  This will be my first Android phone and from what I understand, only the stock Android OS (Pixel and Nexus) create little to no bloating.  I have "heard" that the 1+ Oxygen OS is very clean and light, can you confirm or deny that in the smack down please?  Keep up the good work!

[steefvendy]

Somewhat off topic here, what is the chance MobileTechReview reviewing Ultrawide monitors? Hope you could do it soon!

Smackdown request: The 64GB version($439) vs the ZTE Axon 7 ($400)

[misterosc]

yeah it's been a long time with no phone reviews but honestly apart from the pixel the market is a bit meh since the note 7 is out
