OnePlus 3T
The OnePlus 3T has finally been made official by the
Chinese company today. It looks exactly like the OnePlus 3, but there's a new color option called "Gunmetal".
First off, as rumored ad nauseam the 3T is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon
821, replacing the SD820 in the older OnePlus handset. The OnePlus 3T has two
storage capacity versions, 64 and 128GB respectively, both of the UFS 2.0 kind.
The new phone's rear camera has remained unchanged
from the OnePlus 3, with only a sapphire crystal cover added for improved
scratch protection. The selfie snapper comes with a 16 MP Samsung-made snapper. The aperture remains the same f/2.0,
while pixel size has shrunk from 1.4 nm to 1.0 nm. The exact sensor used is the
Samsung 3P8SP, and the selfie cam has phase detection autofocus and support for
capturing 1080p video at 30fps.
The OnePlus 3T has a 3,400 mAh cell, 400 mAh more than the OnePlus 3.
That should obviously ensure better overall battery life. The 20W OnePlus Dash
Charge is still supported, and this should translate into very fast charging
times. The 3T still runs Android Marshmallow, despite some rumors claiming it
would launch with Nougat on board.
The OnePlus 3 was initially available in silver,
then a "Soft Gold" version was launched. The OnePlus 3T will be out
in "Gunmetal" and "Soft Gold" on November 22 in North
America and November 28 in other territories, purchasable as usual directly
from the OnePlus online store. It will start at US$ 439 (with 64GB of storage). The 128GB variant will go for US$ 479. In
the EU the prices will be € 439 and € 479, respectively.
