Following a tidal wave of leaks over the past few weeks, the OnePlus 3 smartphone is now officially announced and available. The new phone, which can be purchased direct from OnePlus starting today, has a laundry list of high-end specifications combined with a price that undercuts other comparable phones by hundreds of dollars.
The highlight of the OnePlus 3 is the price: for $399, you can get an unlocked device that works with AT&T or T-Mobile (and their related MVNOs) and has the latest and greatest processor and specs. The 3 has Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 820 processor, 6GB of RAM, a 16-megapixel camera with optical stabilization, a fingerprint scanner, 64GB of storage, dual-SIM support, 3,000mAh battery, and a 5.5-inch AMOLED display. The screen is 1080p as opposed to the higher-res 2K displays on other phones, but OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei is confident that it’s just as good for the vast majority of smartphone uses.
