OnePlus 3: Leaked images, price, specifications

We have yet to receive an official unveiling date for the OnePlus 3 from OnePlus, but recently, Carl Pei, CEO of OnePlus, stated we should expect release before the end of Q2. For 2016, the last day of Q2 is June 30, so we must be getting close. Over the course of the past couple of weeks, many apparent leaks and rumors have been swirling around, and before OnePlus makes anything official, we wanted to update you on what we should expect from the company in 2016.

The images reveal a USB Type-C port at the bottom, a home button on the front and speaker outlets and a 3.5mm headphone jack at both ends of the Type-C port. According to Android Central, OnePlus Three is expected to feature a 5.5-inch Full HD display, the latest Snapdragon 820 processor, 32GB of storage, 4GB of RAM, 16MP and 8MP cameras  and will run on OxygenOS 3.0 which is based on the latest Android 6.0 Marshmallow OS.

At this time, not many details have been leaked concerning OnePlus’ proprietary software changes, but it’s safe to assume we can expect more of the same customization options that were baked into the OnePlus 2 and OnePlus X. Additionally, it is also unknown if the OnePlus 3 will feature NFC (Near Field Communication), which was sort of a big deal with the OnePlus 2. With mobile payments becoming pretty much the norm across many parts of the world, it would be foolish of OnePlus to leave NFC off of its upcoming flagship device.

As for pricing, the latest intel suggests that the premium OnePlus 3 (6GB RAM, 64GB storage) will cost around $400, while the 4GB RAM and 32GB of storage model will be about $310. As always, OnePlus has made its devices very competitive in the pricing department. We should expect the same in 2016.
