What would you change about the OnePlus 3? [Poll of the Week]
Today is the day! OnePlus has just unveiled its new flagship smartphone, the OnePlus 3.
While the OnePlus One and OnePlus 2 looked quite similar in design, the OnePlus 3 takes a different approach. Its all-metal unibody design looks and feels extremely premium, and the under-the-hood specs are very good, too. With a Snapdragon 820 processor, 6GB of RAM, and a 3,000mAh battery, the OnePlus 3 should be able to handle just about anything you throw at it. I’ve attached a full list of specs below if you’re interested in learning more.

Of course, that doesn’t mean there’s absolutely no room for improvement. The device only features a Full HD display, which will definitely turn some users away. Some might also argue that the fingerprint sensor should be on the back of the device or that the speaker placement could be better.
