The OnePlus 3 looks and feels great, performs like a champ, captures solid still and video and best of all, won’t break the bank. Sure, it might not be as exciting as its predecessors, despite the company’s best efforts to keep the youthful spirit alive with signature cases and it definitely doesn’t hold a universal appeal, but the OnePlus 3 is a solid all-around device.
Interestingly enough, however, OnePlus seems to be on to something, as its phone is no longer in a niche of its own, as was with previous iterations. This time around, others have picked up on the formula as well with their own takes on the high-end hardware on a budget mix.
