Soon I'll order it, so I'd like to ask you some questions if it's alright : ) -What do you think about the display ? Is it enough sharp ? Are the colors impressive ? -Is it BLAZING fast ? I'd like a COMPLETELY lag free device -Does it heat up with medium use ? (TH-cam, Reddit, some light games etc at ~30% brightness) Thanks in advance.
Pavel Rizzo No hiccups the phone is fast and smooth. The dash charging is really fast I can charge my phone from 60% to 100% in 20 minutes and it doesn't get hot. The display looks great for a 1080p amoled display. I play games*(mostly the big ones) a lot on it and I have not encounter any lag.
Pavel Rizzo the only thing that's bad about it is the ram management but oneplus will fix that in the coming update hopefully next month or you can just install a rom. Problem is if you install a rom you will lose your dash charging sadly.
I'm confused. Is SD820's internal DAC so good that it can be competitive against audiophile flagships, or did OP3 developers come up with something that allowed them for as good of a result as stated in the video?
I subscribed to Pocketnow for Michael Fisher, he's been my #1 reviewer for a long time and I'm really glad he started doing videos again, but watching both his OnePlus 3 review and this review, I have to say Juan Bagnell is waaay better than Fisher in reviewing a smartphone. Great job, Juan!
My personal preference. Hurm... That's tough, but I think I would ultimately side with the P9. The video on the P9 is kinda awful, but it creates sill photos like no other, and I REALLY like rear mounted fingerprint sensors.
You pretty much nailed it, I agree the oneplus 3 is definitely not a flagship killer, but what it is a excellent phone with great specs,performance and fantastic value for money. I ordered mine a few days ago, I refuse to pay double the price for a phone that is better in some areas, and very close to tell In many other areas. Great unbiased review thanks.
Good phone, good review just wondering the stylus that you use for those videos did you make it yourself? And if not please link me where you got it from.
It's a really tough call. I might side with the OP3 just to be rid of the Q810, but both phones represent compromises I wouldn't be a fan of, so I'd personally probably look elsewhere.
How is the vibration feedback like on the OP3? I have a OP1 and vibration is loud, but weak. I have lots of missed calls when I put it in my pocket. Is the OP3 vibration motor the same?
QHD doesn't have any sense on a 5.5 inch display,surprisingly enough on LBS video S7 edge vs one plus 3, the one plus 3 had a slightly brighter display
Exactly people is like this is FHD ARRHHHHH! I can see sharper image on the QHD, so FHD is rubbish. So you will pay like $200 more for S7 or LGG5 or HTC 10 for a sharper image? Ridiculous!
Thank you!!! FHD was far more superior in many ways, better battery life, better gaming performance, etc. The only drawback known was the VR performance, QHD will win by a long shot.
Hi there, great review. I was gona buy this untill i see the ZTE Axon7 will be released next month and it will have a 2K display and overall i think will be a nicer phone.. And now im so undecided upon which to buy.. What should i do... Thanx
I believe the number of "dots" (pixels") making up a certain resolution, be it 1080p or anything else, is mathematically predetermined and doesn't change at all. What you are describing here is the chromatic representation efficiency and shape of each pixel, with them being different betweeh the One 2 and 3 models. That's another issue altogether.
I never said that it was :) But in this context I think it might have been just a "reference" to that video and completly disconnected from the joke. IF he just did the joke either on himself or because he saw it on ltt/some other channel then I never said anything :D
Nice review.. Love ur style and btw i don't understand why people hate invite system. According to me invite system gave them the hype they wanted(other than low pricing and cm support).they are genius in business strategies....
FWIW: The 3.1.4 update that's coming will apparently brighten the screen, and give you more natural colors. Also, what's the stylus used in this video?
Great review man!!! You are very thorough. My only concerns about this phone are connectivity issues, yes I still make phone calls, and future updates.
This video has fully convinced me that Pocketnow's reviews are the closest you can get to an objective, to the point smartphone review. The camera videos being completely separate and detailed is excellent, too.
Sooo, If I have 400€ to spend, should I get the oneplus3, lg g4 or the moto x style? I am really not sure, all those phones look like a good choice to me.
if I use this one plus 3 on T-Mobile network. will this phone work well with my T-Mobile hotspot. because I have try with a unlock at&t phone with T-Mobile network. date work find but hotspot didn't work. can any one provide me with and answer. thanks
Thumbs up for another in-depth vid 😀. And another thumbs up for the brief but very informative review on the OP3's audio (something that shouldn't be overlooked on high-end or wannabe high-end phones).
Great Review Juan, Can you make a review COMPARING ZENFONE 3 (the regular one) VS. Oneplus 3, I believe that they share the Same Sensor and the difference and what I'm curious about is the Zenfone 3 sports a COLOR CORRECTION SENSOR.
+Robert Rivera you should watch c4etech speed test against the htc 10 and 1+3 and the 1+ killed it. Made it look like shit. Yeah I'm sure the speakers are better on the htc 10 but other then that it doesn't matter how much money you have to spend this is a good device for anybody
the average person is not going to see anything wrong with display its sufficient enough for every day use and clear enough to see out of it .It's a great phone that deserves recognition. The phone has stock like experience that been enhanced an has it own unique touch to it with great hardware
This is the question only you can answer why r u so hard at the companies making the phone if this is 2015 people in tech say 1080p is just fyn as they cannot see pixels with their eye anyways, secondly when the iphone 5s released everyone was happy with the front facing shooter now in the iphone sw they say its a poor camera is it important for the phone manufacturers to stack up amd copy what others do or go by their own merry way? as usual a very professional review thanks amd you didn't mention anything about the vr camw with the one plus 3
Very happy to see OnePlus mature since I had first purchased my OPO. I'm glad I skipped the OP2 in favor of a nexus but I'm happy to return to OnePlus as a customer and already purchased my OP3. Now the real test of delivering updates in a timely manner.
Great review. Glad to see One Plus got their stuff together and released a quality phone NOT missing key "flagship killer" features like last year (*cough*NFC*cough*). And at $399 it's an incredibly completing device. Thanks.
It looks good except for the Samsungy home button/sensor. What's with OEMs choosing this style over the eligand back dimple, I really hope the trend changes.
Fantastic review as always Juan. I'm stuck right now between the oneplus and the HTC 10. Both have a metal body, great audio, powerful specs and a good/great camera, plus I want to get on board with USB C
+JuanBagnell The screen issues I've been reading about on the oneplus and the imperfect camera on the HTC concern me. Both are probably fine, but the Nexus 6p is close the the oneplus price and does everything I want and then some, so I might head in that direction
kyle sousa The nice thing is Google will start publicly releasing the EOL date for support on Nexus devices. I LOVE that you will know how much support you really will receive. I hope more companies do that too.
nowadays everybody has bionic eyes which can see pixelation in 1080. Humans are evolving.
I normally wouldn't complain, but I can actually see how fuzzy my wallpapers and text look on this phone compared to the oneplus 2.
What pen you use it??
please answer my question....
Watching it with my OP3 great phone.
Soon I'll order it, so I'd like to ask you some questions if it's alright : )
-What do you think about the display ? Is it enough sharp ?
Are the colors impressive ?
-Is it BLAZING fast ? I'd like a COMPLETELY lag free device
-Does it heat up with medium use ? (TH-cam, Reddit, some light games etc at ~30% brightness)
Thanks in advance.
how is it with Snapchat?
Pavel Rizzo No hiccups the phone is fast and smooth. The dash charging is really fast I can charge my phone from 60% to 100% in 20 minutes and it doesn't get hot. The display looks great for a 1080p amoled display. I play games*(mostly the big ones) a lot on it and I have not encounter any lag.
***** I don't have snap chat so I don't know how it looks and works on the OP3.
Pavel Rizzo the only thing that's bad about it is the ram management but oneplus will fix that in the coming update hopefully next month or you can just install a rom. Problem is if you install a rom you will lose your dash charging sadly.
The JuanPlus 3 loses the unique design charm that the JuanPlus 1 and 2 did.
I would've liked your comment if I wasn't using the TH-cam app.
+Aakrista Dahal I only get 2 options, reply or report. Yes I'm on the latest version.
xD
:-D
Said the lumia 950 lmao
I'm confused. Is SD820's internal DAC so good that it can be competitive against audiophile flagships, or did OP3 developers come up with something that allowed them for as good of a result as stated in the video?
hi @pocketnow
what is the pen/stylus that you are using? where can I get one?
c4etech's same title for their video but long before this video released
Lol yeah
Cool story.
Yeah.
Yeah
And?
What kind of Stylus did you use in the video?
What kind of stylus do you guys use for the reviews?
Anyone know where I can buy this phone?
Banggood have listed it, here: www.banggood.com/OnePlus-Three-3-5_5-Inch-6GB-RAM-64GB-ROM-Snapdragon-820-Quad-core-2_2Ghz-4G-Smartphone-p-1063786.html?p=JQ26191551677201504Z
Thank you, sir.
what stylus do you use during the video?
What are the built in apps on one plus one? I mean do they have duplicates like Google photos and than another photos app?
What stylus did you use in this video?
Will the One Plus 3 be available in Australia? If not, what resellers in the United States sell the phone? Thanks!
I subscribed to Pocketnow for Michael Fisher, he's been my #1 reviewer for a long time and I'm really glad he started doing videos again, but watching both his OnePlus 3 review and this review, I have to say Juan Bagnell is waaay better than Fisher in reviewing a smartphone. Great job, Juan!
:-)
that's crazy Michael Fisher is the best
since you reviewd both the p9 & op3, which one do you think is better?
My personal preference. Hurm... That's tough, but I think I would ultimately side with the P9. The video on the P9 is kinda awful, but it creates sill photos like no other, and I REALLY like rear mounted fingerprint sensors.
JuanBagnell Awesome thanks ... I just wish the software of the p9 was better
Sloom Jumah
Ugh. EMUI... Just... Ugh...
+JuanBagnell 😂😂✋
What stylus do they use on the phone?
the best review of one plus 3 available on youtube right now
Glad you enjoyed it.
What pen are you using?
What is the stylus used in this video?
Hi Juan... Does Oneplus 3 support 24 bit audio or does it get attenuated??
what is the stylus accessory used in this phone review?
were do i get a one plus 3 from amazon or one plus
Should I get the HTC 10 or the one plus 3.
price oneplus 3 overall htc 10
compare the price and specs
If you have the extra money HTC 10 if not OnePlus 3.
htc
Should probably get the HTC if you have the money.
You pretty much nailed it, I agree the oneplus 3 is definitely not a flagship killer, but what it is a excellent phone with great specs,performance and fantastic value for money.
I ordered mine a few days ago, I refuse to pay double the price for a phone that is better in some areas, and very close to tell In many other areas.
Great unbiased review thanks.
I agree with you, I love when the review doesn't just tell you all of the features but gives you in-depth information about the flaws!
The so called flaws I can handle no problem. For the price this is a great phone, looking forward to getting it next week.
Which earphones are at 7:53? They look like the KZ ATE, but I'm not sure.
Good eye :-)
Just wondering! with all the praises for the audio output, I want to knows if it supports FLAC audio?
What's the audio sample used in testing loud speaker audio?
Good phone, good review just wondering the stylus that you use for those videos did you make it yourself? And if not please link me where you got it from.
What stylus is used in this video?
how to find the audio track used for the speaker test at 8 minute mark?
does it have wireless charging built in or no?
I would just like to know it it supports Q.Charge 3.0 or even at least 2.0 ???
jaun would u spend 450ish on a nexus 6p or this phone ?
It's a really tough call. I might side with the OP3 just to be rid of the Q810, but both phones represent compromises I wouldn't be a fan of, so I'd personally probably look elsewhere.
How is the vibration feedback like on the OP3? I have a OP1 and vibration is loud, but weak. I have lots of missed calls when I put it in my pocket. Is the OP3 vibration motor the same?
Maybe? I think it's kinda quiet and weak.
QHD doesn't have any sense
on a 5.5 inch
display,surprisingly enough on LBS video S7 edge vs one plus 3, the one plus 3 had a slightly brighter display
doesn't make any sense
Exactly people is like this is FHD ARRHHHHH! I can see sharper image on the QHD, so FHD is rubbish. So you will pay like $200 more for S7 or LGG5 or HTC 10 for a sharper image? Ridiculous!
the only reason why QHD would make sense on a phone for VR
Indeed, I want to know; does the display get bright or not?
Thank you!!!
FHD was far more superior in many ways, better battery life, better gaming performance, etc. The only drawback known was the VR performance, QHD will win by a long shot.
whats the song playing at 8:12
Should i get the Oneplus 3 or the Moto X Pure Edition?
What is that twist phone stand thing?
Hi there, great review. I was gona buy this untill i see the ZTE Axon7 will be released next month and it will have a 2K display and overall i think will be a nicer phone.. And now im so undecided upon which to buy.. What should i do... Thanx
What's the name of the stylus he is using ?
does it work on verizon?
whats name of your pen? qual o nome da pen utilizada?
I believe the number of "dots" (pixels") making up a certain resolution, be it 1080p or anything else, is mathematically predetermined and doesn't change at all. What you are describing here is the chromatic representation efficiency and shape of each pixel, with them being different betweeh the One 2 and 3 models. That's another issue altogether.
I'm at the moment a Xperia Z2 user but I'm thinking for switching over to the Oneplus 3. Should I do the switch or stuck to my Z2?
What's the name of that stylus? It looks very nice.
4. Answer is 4
Wow. Never heard that joke before.
ltt
in this case its not meant as a joke but rather hinting at the review form linus tech tips :)
Testperson001 It wasn't original from them either.
I never said that it was :) But in this context I think it might have been just a "reference" to that video and completly disconnected from the joke. IF he just did the joke either on himself or because he saw it on ltt/some other channel then I never said anything :D
Iphone 6s or samsung s7 worth paying more than the OP3 at this point? Still not sure what to buy, please help. Got a Samsung S3 now. Mid user.
that pen/stylus thing whats it's name?
What stylus does he use?
Can you do a audio comparison for ]OnePlus 3 and HTC M10 with samples?
I have the samsung galaxy s4 right now, will the oneplus 3 be a good next phone?
I need that stylus, jeezus. Anyone know what that is and where I can get it?
What's the app for that wallpaper? "never settle"
Nice review.. Love ur style and btw i don't understand why people hate invite system. According to me invite system gave them the hype they wanted(other than low pricing and cm support).they are genius in business strategies....
What stylus is he using?
Can't wait for mine to arrive.
Should be a decent upgrade from my Nokia 930.
Hope you enjoy it! Looking for something to replace my phone too, currently on an 830 with Win10 ^^
I have had mine for 2 days now and I love it! I was a bit worried about the screen but it is bright and clear.
That homescreen problem seems like a glitch, other reviews have showed the google now bar being up where you said empty space was
FWIW: The 3.1.4 update that's coming will apparently brighten the screen, and give you more natural colors.
Also, what's the stylus used in this video?
Hey Juan, I tried looking up Ha! Goodbye! but I couldn't find it... Any help?
Not sure what you mean...
+JuanBagnell The song you use as speaker test
Matts Koldewijn
Oh, that's available for free in the TH-cam settings for creators. You should be able to find it there.
+JuanBagnell Thanks!
Anyone know what stylus he is using?
Thank you
Great review man!!! You are very thorough. My only concerns about this phone are connectivity issues, yes I still make phone calls, and future updates.
This video has fully convinced me that Pocketnow's reviews are the closest you can get to an objective, to the point smartphone review. The camera videos being completely separate and detailed is excellent, too.
Should I get this phone, or S6 edge? My budget is around 400 dlls, so that's why I'm asking...
Juan Bagnell________
Which Stylus Are You Using In This Review?????
Thanks
does it have ir blaster
Gonna buy the OnePlus 3 tomorrow to replace my iPhone 6s. Juan Bagnell's review is just too good 👏🏼 All the points are nicely detailed 🙂
Sooo, If I have 400€ to spend, should I get the oneplus3, lg g4 or the moto x style? I am really not sure, all those phones look like a good choice to me.
if I use this one plus 3 on T-Mobile network. will this phone work well with my T-Mobile hotspot. because I have try with a unlock at&t phone with T-Mobile network. date work find but hotspot didn't work. can any one provide me with and answer. thanks
Thumbs up for another in-depth vid 😀. And another thumbs up for the brief but very informative review on the OP3's audio (something that shouldn't be overlooked on high-end or wannabe high-end phones).
I really hate when people gloss over audio. It's not like listening to things on your phone isn't a MAJOR usage scenario for a lot of people.
What Stylus is he using?
I still liked the design of Opo
I like the sandstone back, but I think the camera was too high up on the back imo.
+exoduscsgo I had the OPO and it felt fine that the camera was that high.
+Suliver Strong good to hear you liked the phone!
Opo looks best
Good feeling too. They nailed the originality of the Oneplus One's design.
Great Review Juan, Can you make a review COMPARING ZENFONE 3 (the regular one) VS. Oneplus 3, I believe that they share the Same Sensor and the difference and what I'm curious about is the Zenfone 3 sports a COLOR CORRECTION SENSOR.
HTC 10 and Nexus 6p are the best android phones to pick up now IMO.
Hold this L
The S7 Edge shits on both
Agreed. I would say the S7 edge is first with the OP3 at second.
+Robert Rivera you should watch c4etech speed test against the htc 10 and 1+3 and the 1+ killed it. Made it look like shit. Yeah I'm sure the speakers are better on the htc 10 but other then that it doesn't matter how much money you have to spend this is a good device for anybody
***** yeah it does.
***** jeez calm down, I was joking anyways
I have a S4 would this one be a huge upgrade?
Yes
buy s6
+Sam Fisher no, don't.
+Richard Gao yeah an s6 would be disastrous, the battery sucks. just go with the op3
s6 has better display, camera, DAC what does this shitty op3 has?
I noticed you have OxygenOS 3.1.2. I don't have that on my OnePlus 2? Anyone else?
filmed at Balboa park?
A few parts yeah :-)
the average person is not going to see anything wrong with display its sufficient enough for every day use and clear enough to see out of it .It's a great phone that deserves recognition. The phone has stock like experience that been enhanced an has it own unique touch to it with great hardware
This is the question only you can answer why r u so hard at the companies making the phone if this is 2015 people in tech say 1080p is just fyn as they cannot see pixels with their eye anyways, secondly when the iphone 5s released everyone was happy with the front facing shooter now in the iphone sw they say its a poor camera is it important for the phone manufacturers to stack up amd copy what others do or go by their own merry way? as usual a very professional review thanks amd you didn't mention anything about the vr camw with the one plus 3
I wonder what will happen if OnePlus create a phone, priced similarly to the S7.. since we know what they can do to a phone priced way lower
can u make a video on using dash charger with oneplus 2
Watching this on my 2 and a half year old HTC Desire 500... only one more month of work and I'll get the oneplus 3 finally. I'll be so happy :D
Oh my God, this is one of the best reviews I've seen in a while. Objective and very well presented!
Stick around. We've got more coming soon :-)
Speaker/audio test song? Whats your jam mr. Juan Carlos
Very happy to see OnePlus mature since I had first purchased my OPO. I'm glad I skipped the OP2 in favor of a nexus but I'm happy to return to OnePlus as a customer and already purchased my OP3. Now the real test of delivering updates in a timely manner.
Yeah... I don't think the OP2 will be remembered fondly...
just got this phone and man your so right Juan Carlos the headphone jack quality is amazing. made my ears dance man. pure quality.
Awesome review, Phone is great for its price point :)
is xiaomi mi5 better?
U r the best tech reviewer by far.. I don c anyone review products as clean n comprehensive than u.. Honesty being the other aspect..
I'm glad you're enjoying the new reviews. Stay tuned! We've got some fun stuff planned :-)
brilliant review , sir can we expect reviews like alcatel idol 4 and asus zenfone 3 ??? coz normally you are ignoring budget phones... regards
REALLY excited to see what Alcatel does. I LOVED the Idol 3.
sir if you can help me selecting the best budget phone in oneplus x,galaxy a3 16, idol 3 . i will be thankful to you.
Great review. Glad to see One Plus got their stuff together and released a quality phone NOT missing key "flagship killer" features like last year (*cough*NFC*cough*). And at $399 it's an incredibly completing device. Thanks.
You're very welcome :-)
Love the fact that you introduced in reviews a serious audio measurement ...I think Bagnell is responsible !? :D
That's why they brought me on board :-)
When are you expecting an Axon 7 for review?
I am hoping to put that on the schedule soon.
oneplus 3 or wait for the new nexus 5/6 ??
i really appreciate you mentioning network performance, most reviewers tend to forget that this is still a phone used as a phone mainly!
LOL I' not an expert there, so I can only speak generally, but I do try to cover it :-)
you should do an update on it since oneplus improved the ram management and added rgb mode
What is the point of the outro if you guy never link a video there.
It looks good except for the Samsungy home button/sensor.
What's with OEMs choosing this style over the eligand back dimple, I really hope the trend changes.
Man I hope we don't lose that. I read Huawei might move to the front and I think that would be a terrible move...
Fantastic review as always Juan. I'm stuck right now between the oneplus and the HTC 10. Both have a metal body, great audio, powerful specs and a good/great camera, plus I want to get on board with USB C
It's a good fight. Depends on how much you want to spend, but I like the HTC 10 screen better.
+JuanBagnell The screen issues I've been reading about on the oneplus and the imperfect camera on the HTC concern me. Both are probably fine, but the Nexus 6p is close the the oneplus price and does everything I want and then some, so I might head in that direction
kyle sousa
The nice thing is Google will start publicly releasing the EOL date for support on Nexus devices. I LOVE that you will know how much support you really will receive. I hope more companies do that too.
what is the anime played on the phone?
