OnePlus 3T review: Design<\/h2>\nOnePlus 3T review, If you already own the OnePlus 3, then you\u2019ll know exactly what to expect here. Because the OnePlus 3T is basically identical.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
At 5.5-inches it\u2019s again a bit of a handful, although one-handed use is just about possible thanks to a handy shortcut for dragging down the notifications tab. Those rounded edges feel nice against your palm and if you do happen to drop the OnePlus 3T, it\u2019s rugged enough to stand a respectable chance of survival. That metallic surfacing resists scratches and scuffs with the best of them.<\/p>\n
That camera lens still sticks out of the rear of the phone, but it\u2019s thankfully now made of sapphire glass, which makes it more resistant to damage. Sadly there\u2019s no water resistance, so don\u2019t get it too moist.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
You can pick up the OnePlus 3T in a new \u2018soft gold\u2019 finish as well as gunmetal, which is the only real difference compared with the original OnePlus flagship phone. However, the gold model only comes in 64GB; there\u2019s no 128GB option.<\/p>\n
OnePlus 3T review: Screen and media<\/h2>\nSomething else that hasn\u2019t changed compared with the original OnePlus 3 is the 5.5-inch screen.<\/p>\n
You once again get a spacious and sharp AMOLED panel, which produces crisp and pleasingly vibrant images. Colours are nice and punchy rather than accurately reproduced, and you\u2019ll struggle to make out any individual pixels. On top brightness you\u2019ll have no trouble seeing, even in bright daylight. And the ability to adjust colour warmth means the OnePlus 3T\u2019s screen is easy on the eye at night.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You now get a choice of 64GB or 128GB of storage space, with the gunmetal grey model. The soft gold version only comes with 64GB. That\u2019s still plenty for your apps and the rest, as long as you don\u2019t go crazy shooting 4K video or RAW images. Sadly there\u2019s still no support for microSD memory card expansion.<\/p>\n
OnePlus 3T review: Features and OS<\/h2>\nThe OnePlus 3T runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow, so not quite the latest version of Google\u2019s Android OS. However, OnePlus should be rolling out an update to Android Nougat before the end of 2016, and in the meantime Marshmallow does the job nicely.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You get the Oxygen OS overlay plastered on top of Android, which adds some cool new features and changes up the look and feel \u2013 but not to an excessive degree. Android fans will be right at home with the interface, while some of the shortcut tools and gesture support is genuinely useful.<\/p>\n
The OnePlus 3T once again packs a fingerprint sensor, and as before it\u2019s one of the best we\u2019ve used. Not only is it pleasingly accurate but it\u2019s also incredibly quick, unlocking your phone pretty much the instant you tap your digit to the surface. It even beats the scanners on the Huawei Mate 9, Galaxy S7 and other premium handsets.<\/p>\n
OnePlus 3T review: Performance and battery life<\/h2>\nThe OnePlus 3T is, simply put, an absolute beast.<\/p>\n
You get one of the latest, super-charged SnapDragon 821 chipsets packed inside, backed by a whopping 6GB of RAM. In normal speak, you can expect silky smooth performance at all times, even when playing the latest games or editing video.<\/p>\n
Our AnTuTu benchmark test spat out a score of 164523, which is comparable to the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus and well above other premium Android rivals like the Huawei Mate 9 and Samsung\u2019s Galaxy S7.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
As for battery life, the OnePlus 3T\u2019s bigger 3400mAh battery means you can expect over a day of life between charges, even with heavy use. There\u2019s not a massive difference compared with the original OnePlus 3 and rivals such as the Huawei Mate 9 enjoy more impressive longevity.<\/p>\n
However, with the mighty Dash Charge tech on board, you can power the phone up to nearly full in just over an hour. The phone stays perfectly cool throughout, which is ridiculously impressive.<\/p>\n
OnePlus 3T review: Cameras<\/h2>\nOnePlus has also slightly tweaked the original OnePlus 3\u2019s camera tech, so the OnePlus 3T now boasts some refined image stabilisation as well as updated camera software and an all-new 16-megapixel Samsung-made selfie lens.<\/p>\n
The results aren\u2019t quite as strong as some of the very best smartphone snappers of 2016, such as photos taken on the Google Pixel phone. However, our OnePlus 3T camera samples were all solid considering this handset\u2019s lower price point and very rarely did we have to discard a shot thanks to quality issues.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You can shoot up to 4K resolution video, as before, while full manual controls are available for photography maestros. You can even shoot RAW images, which are super high-res and easy to tweak on the move.<\/p>\n
OnePlus 3T review: Verdict<\/h2>\nIf you want a best-in-class Android experience for less money than your Galaxy S7s and Pixel phones, the OnePlus 3T won\u2019t disappoint. With seriously strong performance, impressive media chops and dependable camera tech, this phone offers it all for a lot less.<\/p>\n
