Companys lay out embargos for these situations. They don't want reviews to be out before the phone is available, but they want them to be available asap after
nah i think they will still be att the lower price range because it's a big market. Alternatively they will have a higher price variant and another lower price model.
alexdiezg Damn, front facing speakers like my HTC One M8 gives an amazing multimedia experience. I wish google pixel or this One Plus phone had front facing speakers
Apoorv Gahlot proud owner of one plus one. Had it for over two years and still no problems. its just to perfect . Ive been wanting a new phone and its a good thing i waited until the Oneplus 3T release.
Weird. Android Authority is the ONLY reviewer I've seen that says the fingerprint scanner is alright. Every other reviewer says the OP3 and OP3T have the best fingerprint scanner on Android Android Authority confirmed to be ultimate Axon 7 fanboys
Light Yagami They might skip to a OnePlus 5 due to 4 being a superstitious number and 3T is something to do also with a weird scenario in the economy. C4Tech mentioned something about it.
Marius Adrian if you really need the better camera and CPU, S7. If you don't really need that little bit faster performance or camera, buy the 3T, it is way cheaper and a really good phone. I have the OP3 for 3 months now and it is still as good as when I bought it.
I have the OP3 and S7E. The major reason I will choose the OP3T is that it doesn't lag at all. When I got the S7E it didn't lag too but after 6 months of usage the lag is continuously increasing. Even my OP1 barely lagged after 3 years. Go with the OP3T
This phone is incredible. I would love to buy this phone. The only challenge is that, in South Africa, there is nobody that does repairs on OnePlus phones.
My OnePlus One is still here up and running flawlessly. My OnePlus3 (one of the first to reach Europe) is here without a glitch... And I never ever had to repair a phone. Just go in and take care to use a good nice SILICON cover. Anything silicon will protect the corners enough to avoid screen damage. And forget about "screen protectors" that's something I never needed - and I have ZERO screens damaged - ever. (edited for a typo)
Even though there were already other reviews about this throughout the same day it's nice to hear and see a variety of information one can interpret from another review about the OnePlus 3T.
INCREDIBLE REVIEW very detailed & Honest THANK YOU & hopefully filming this didn't screw up your recovery I hope you recover safely & quickly & wanted you to know I am that person that you went through the effort (even more so because you are recovering from a oral procedure) that needs this review & i am wholeheartedly & sincerely GRATEFUL
op3 will be discontinued once the stocks are over and this 3T will replace it as most people won't care about the extra $40 and no one would buy the 3 after this is released. and when op4 comes up this may shift to $399 so it won't be discontinued at the time op4 launches
Hey great video! Learned a lot! Great effort and thanks for making the video even though you just might have underwent an oral surgery. Keep up the good work and God bless!
Brendan Dijkstra yeah but Luke Sony did with their z5 premium (4k display) and z5 (1440p display) the should make a op3t Version with 1440p and another Version with 4k
huge thanks for this review, it's really good and hope you get well soon! I'm getting this in a few days! greetings from Argentina, liked and suscribed!
No, its CEO Liu said T means nothing, just dont want to be same as iPhone. Or you can think it's a modest attitude campared with others, especially iPhone.
Love that one handed feature! I think I'm going to love the size and other features of this phone. I'm looking forward to that Dash charging!!! Whoah!!!!! The screenshot feature tho!!!!!!! Sometimes swiping over on my Note 4 just doesn't do it. smh Love this thorough and intuitive video. Thank you so much, especially since you just had surgery. I know the feeling, man. You ROCK!
love the way you emphasize jack ... people often take jack for granted till he goes for good in apple (stupid move!!) jack is so massively important personally i wont even look at a phone without it.
I recently got this phone, and it is pretty good. It feels extremely solid in my hand and looks premium, the build quality is on par with my Huawei P9. The overall performance is supurb, no stuttering or lagging whatsoever, and general app opening speed is also great. Comparable to my P9 but the performance is slightly more consistent on 3T. And man, I love the dark theme on settings menu! The front-mounted fingerprint scanner feels faster than the one on P9 but slightly less accurate, but it is good that it is on the front, not on the back, which means when the phone is laying flat on the table I can reach it without even picking it up. The speaker quality is good but it is focused on the mids rather than highs or lows and sounds unbalanced. I felt P9's speaker is quieter but its output is more neutral. Camera isn't that bad but it's not 3T's strongest point either. I couldn't observe any severe oversharpening in the image and output generally looks natural with accurate white balance but the fine details are smudged by heavy-handed noise reduction and the dynamic range is significantly worse than P9 and it has a tendency to blow up the highlights. I found out that the minimum ISO is for some reason 100, not 50 or 40, even during the daytime, and it can go up to 9600(while using HQ mode it is lowered to 6400) under a low-light condition, but the night time shots on 3T is not even comparable to those taken by P9. The colours look washed out and the highlights are completely blown up even with HQ mode that is supposed to lower the noise level and preserve more details by combining multiple pictures. The image does look sharper on 3T though, thanks to OIS, but the minimum shutter speed is limited to 0.1 second, which is a shame. 3T lasts longer with similar usage, though. I got 7 hours 30 minutes of SoT at 60% brightness on 3T and to me this is an impressive result. It charges faster than P9, too. I'll sell my 3T since for me the camera is the most important bit, but for $495 which is how much I paid for this phone, it is purely impressive. Highly recommended.
Where did you get that info that the gunmetal would only be available in 128GB? They are both available in both configurations. Actually, the gold version is not even yet available.
its good to clarify "surgery" after you say "i went for oral" 😂😂😂
Malik Minhas Hahahahah
Malik Minhas lol
:D
Malik Minhas lol
Nice one
its cool bro , i hope u gett better , god bless you
god is fake dumbass
chill out amigo. You went from being a nice guy, to unecessarily angry that quickly.
sorry but i dont like the coment of alberto why just be good and good comes to you sorry
Alberto 9324 Alberto at least people who do believe, don't call people being nice, dumb asses, your a serious jerk Alberto.
y'all salty xDDDDDDDD
So all TH-camrs decided to release the review at the same time..
Gaurav Talreja most likely there was an embargo on it that was lifted today.
Companys lay out embargos for these situations. They don't want reviews to be out before the phone is available, but they want them to be available asap after
Yeah its called a review embargo. OnePlus tells these reviewers that they can't publish the review until a certain time and day.
Gaurav Talreja
Google 'embargo'
Kanwarpreet Singh i dont need to. I can understand what other people have commented here
Meh. Slowly their prices will rise each year and be like normal flagships...
nah i think they will still be att the lower price range because it's a big market. Alternatively they will have a higher price variant and another lower price model.
+Five Star Grab em' while you can then!
Five Star Agreed. Oneplus 4 i think would be launched @ ~500ish dollars
they already did in my country one plus 3 is 550$ here
Dang it, that would suck. I hope they keep those low prices.
If this phone has dual front speakers, it would be perfect
Melbourne Dauz agreed, but the haters will say it'll disturb the home button and it's 2 buttons on each side
alexdiezg Damn, front facing speakers like my HTC One M8 gives an amazing multimedia experience.
I wish google pixel or this One Plus phone had front facing speakers
Melbourne Dauz me 2, enjoying my Nexus 6 speakers. So sad pixel didn't have them. Also, I think phones should designed like HTC one M9+ Google it up
I feel the same. or if it atleast had stereo speaker set up, with both the bottom grill and earpiece acting together as speakers.
Don't forget USB 3.0
is it only me who fell in love with this phone?????????
yeah
I'm debating wether to get iPhone 7 or this one. Camera is my highest priority and performance.
Xpert4 WIN Then you should get a Pixel or Pixel XL
Xpert4 WIN
get a S7 or Mate 9
s7 shit, lags a lot and it wasn't even a year from release date. Mate 9 doesn't looks to be any good.
About 4 reviewers posted the video within 10min each other, sorry AA I like you but I couldn't avoid Mr.Mobile's review
Jack Pineda you prefer to get talked down to like a 1st grader during story time? 😂😂 how cute..
Jack Pineda yeah, Mr.Mobile followed by Android Authority and then MKBHD. One more review was there, forgot who did.
Jaime from Pocketnow
1+3T=479$
Chinese math.
T=142~
Actually it's 159,3(3)
dont android authority has another reviewer? I mean jesus, give the guy time to recover from the surgery for god's sake.
*Gods (God's means God is)
99% wont see this but the
1% i hope you have a wonderful week :)
Sea Dog hope you have a wonderful week as well.
Sea Dog lol. You must be watching it on your OP3.
I don't have one but I wish XD
Thank you
yah agree wid u am watching this on my One Plus 3 :/
This review was the last thing I needed to switch from the one plus one to 3T. Thanks guys, you really helped me out :-)
Apoorv Gahlot I wanted to wait for the 4 but my 1 just stopped charging ffs 1+
Apoorv Gahlot proud owner of one plus one. Had it for over two years and still no problems. its just to perfect . Ive been wanting a new phone and its a good thing i waited until the Oneplus 3T release.
akrixs radilla same here the opo is still a beast :)
me too! can't wait to upgrade now from the OPO i'm honestly still happy with it tho :D
akrixs radilla I'm still on the one plus one too! Gets me a day full of charge and it's pretty fast. I'm still on Cyanogen mod tho.
Weird. Android Authority is the ONLY reviewer I've seen that says the fingerprint scanner is alright. Every other reviewer says the OP3 and OP3T have the best fingerprint scanner on Android
Android Authority confirmed to be ultimate Axon 7 fanboys
ChillNyeTheBroGuy yeah.... Android Authority is way way wayyyyy biased when it comes to the Axon 7
AnRg Marasinu Android authority's Joe hindy actually bought an axon 7 and publicly said he disliked it so much he returned it and bought a V20 instead
***** OP3 has faster fingerprint scanner than any phone you compare it to
***** Then you are wrong.
***** I know, but I've personally tried both and OP3 is definitely faster.
I am going to get this phone for Christmas. OnePlus better not release the OnePlus 4 until Christmas 2017!
Light Yagami its coming out in spring of 2017
Light Yagami I'm pretty sure OnePlus is gonna release a new model before December 2017
Light Yagami They might skip to a OnePlus 5 due to 4 being a superstitious number and 3T is something to do also with a weird scenario in the economy. C4Tech mentioned something about it.
Light Yagami I think they're gonna skip to the op5 because of 4 being and unlucky number in china.
There is no 1+4. In Chinese pronunciation, 4 sounds like 死 means dead. Putting a number of death as label of the phone, doesn't seem good eh?
great video as always! by activating the on screen buttons the other buttons stay disable or are both activated?
Way to power through the video Lanh! 👍🏾
May god bless u....
recover as fast as u can....🙂🙂🙂
Speedy recovery, Lanh!
It's cool bud ... Keep it up ..... Your review will be helpful to everyone ..
So keep on going like this .... God bless you ....!!!! 👍
when will the OnePlus 3 be getting OxygenOS 3.5?
Omar A probably when the 3T Comes out.
Omar A it is available with community build for op3
Omar A it's already available for the OP3
Shaun Langenberg i know the beta is I'm talking about the official update... cuz if the official update is out i still haven't got it yet then
Omar A You can download it from OnePlus's website
Hi. Just wanted to say, thank you for the excellent videos and I hope you feel better real soon. 🙃
oneplus 3T or S7 edge? in just several day i will buy one phone and i want to know if 3T is worth over S7edge
Marius Adrian 3t any day
Marius Adrian if you really need the better camera and CPU, S7. If you don't really need that little bit faster performance or camera, buy the 3T, it is way cheaper and a really good phone. I have the OP3 for 3 months now and it is still as good as when I bought it.
Marius Adrian you should ask the other way around :p
I have the OP3 and S7E. The major reason I will choose the OP3T is that it doesn't lag at all. When I got the S7E it didn't lag too but after 6 months of usage the lag is continuously increasing. Even my OP1 barely lagged after 3 years. Go with the OP3T
one plus 3t FTW
Wish you better Lanh and great review as usual 👍☺
When will the S7 get android Nougat Official update?
Dukemci Pierre late December
thanks
donte pearce Late December? Thats the unlocked versions isn't it?
Dukemci Pierre 5 mins back
feel better soon!!!! Thanks for all you do man!!!
Guys, I preordered a Pixel XL 32 GB, and it hasn't sent yet. Should I get this??????
get the pixel. it hass much better screen and its made by google.
Billybob Schneider I would say this if you like oxygen os and like to take high quality selfies because it's cheaper
Pixel
Billybob Schneider get this
Get a op3t and save your money :)
Get well soon Lanh! Outstanding review, as usual!
God, i love OnePlus. Whos watching on an OP1?
*Who's
Has the microphone audio quality has been improved on OP3T?. OP3 is very low on audio quality in recorded videos
This phone is incredible. I would love to buy this phone. The only challenge is that, in South Africa, there is nobody that does repairs on OnePlus phones.
My OnePlus One is still here up and running flawlessly. My OnePlus3 (one of the first to reach Europe) is here without a glitch... And I never ever had to repair a phone.

Leonaldo Brum Nice to know, thanks 😀 I will take that into consideration. I always take really good care of my phones, I am just the cautious type.

Get a Spigen case for the OP3. You won't have a problem
Even though there were already other reviews about this throughout the same day it's nice to hear and see a variety of information one can interpret from another review about the OnePlus 3T.
get well soon!
INCREDIBLE REVIEW very detailed & Honest THANK YOU & hopefully filming this didn't screw up your recovery I hope you recover safely & quickly & wanted you to know I am that person that you went through the effort (even more so because you are recovering from a oral procedure) that needs this review & i am wholeheartedly & sincerely GRATEFUL

Nilachandan Mohanty Not easy to finished this even without this situation
Discontinued in 4, 5 or 6 months? Vote in your reply.
it won't be discoutinued
InvisiMan2006 it won't be
yah by that time oneplus 4 will be here
InvisiMan2006 It discontinued in Europe I think
op3 will be discontinued once the stocks are over and this 3T will replace it as most people won't care about the extra $40 and no one would buy the 3 after this is released. and when op4 comes up this may shift to $399 so it won't be discontinued at the time op4 launches
LANH YOU'RE THE BEST REVIEWER ON THIS CHANNEL, GET WELL SOON!
Great vid. Always thorough reviews.
god bless you..hope u get better soon buddy
Hey great video! Learned a lot! Great effort and thanks for making the video even though you just might have underwent an oral surgery. Keep up the good work and God bless!
Hope you feel better!
Can I use OnePlus 3 cases with the OnePlus 3T? Will it fit?
OP3/OP3T, best smartphones price/quality/performance of 2016!
such a hero, doing a review while suffering from a recent operation
Better to wait for 4k version in 6 months
Mod/Tune no 4k Display on smartphone isnt good we cant See more than ca 1500p on an op3t screen
Preston Garvey VR..
Preston Garvey Sure, just like we can't distinguish anything above 30fps 😑
hi Preston gravy
Brendan Dijkstra yeah but Luke Sony did with their z5 premium (4k display) and z5 (1440p display)
the should make a op3t Version with 1440p and another Version with 4k
Great videos, love the pics of the plaza!
Overall excellent. I mean TRUMP edition is excellent.
Hoping for a speedy recovery- thanks for powering on with the review!
No SD-card slot :((
Why do u need an sd card? 😂
Dronor Cuzc you can have 300GB of storage in your pocket. Full of wonderful videos of course.
I think 128 gb is more than enough in a smartphone :)
Just buy the 128 GB version and stop whining ;-)
Oh, in case you missed it, there's a FAST OTG storage option (USB 3).
Dronor Nah dude Goodluck filling 64GB..
wish u speedy recovery man 😢
Meh i just got a one plus 3, not fazed. This update is so minor in real world usage, but the price goes from 329 to 399 in the uk! So much more D:
TheKiwiJobes brexit 😆
Skeptix Gaming its such a price hike! I rang ever o2 store and found a store with 3 left lmao

I wish Joshua was here because he used the original 3 so he would've able to give more details but this one is good too, Get well soon Lanh.
I would like to see a Snapchat test, how well does it handle Snapchat. and of course a Pixel comparison.
Christopher Adams check Michael Fisher's video
alexdiezg I have, I've checked all the hitters videos that have put one out so far.
Christopher Adams great
Christopher Adams Can you tell me why exactly with snapchat?
Andi Meir popular social media where the camera have a lot of importance
What camera are you using???
Still no IP68 😥😑
Hunaid Udaipurwala it's under $500. With its spec, it's understandable to not have waterproofing at that price.
Hunaid Udaipurwala You are annoying who gives a shit about waterproofing, we didn't have it few years ago, we don't need it now,
Hunaid Udaipurwala still 400 dollars
Ante Bulat
huge thanks for this review, it's really good and hope you get well soon! I'm getting this in a few days! greetings from Argentina, liked and suscribed!
The "T" stands for turbo, right?
no it stands for trump
lmfao!
No, its CEO Liu said T means nothing, just dont want to be same as iPhone. Or you can think it's a modest attitude campared with others, especially iPhone.
Stefan Kuzmanov seems following mkbhd badly
like what you did with your room bro. where did you find all those lighting set up?
Wtf? The description said Tablet when its a smartphone
I think they tried to write "table".
Love that one handed feature! I think I'm going to love the size and other features of this phone. I'm looking forward to that Dash charging!!! Whoah!!!!! The screenshot feature tho!!!!!!! Sometimes swiping over on my Note 4 just doesn't do it. smh Love this thorough and intuitive video. Thank you so much, especially since you just had surgery. I know the feeling, man. You ROCK!
hope you better!
what racing game were you playing there (mid review)?
Now my one plus 3 is jealous...
Wts the on screen time for the new battery?
lol he reminds me of mkbhd with his voice and hand signals
get well bro...thank you for your time and effort as always...
Get well soon man.
Solid review. Does this iteration have extended range calling and WiFi calling?
just call it the one plus 3S
S is overused........looking at Samsung and Apple
or one plus 3SD(same design)
Alex M They purposefully used the "T" over the "S", because "T" is just after the "S". It is one plus.
Great video. Your narration was very clear and easy to understand, no issues due to your surgery. I like the on-screen labels you use too.
gotta love oral "surgeries".
watching this on my one plus 3, no need for upgrade. Just got it 4 days ago and i loove it.
Get well soon! I didn't notice the change of voice at all!
Thank you for the review Lahn, It was very helpful and definetly am 99% sure I will pick up a 3T. Speedy recovery!
Do u know when coming India or UAE?
Hope you feel better soon man, awesome review as always - much appreciated!
Hey dude, thanks for throwing this review out even though you weren't feeling to good dude.
hey sir I'm also buying it so is it have Google assistant now???
What Store can you get the phone in other than OP's website?

hey!! (1:44) the gun metal doesn't have a 64GB model????😯
Any idea when it will be released in India ? Pls help !!

What about the speaker quality or did I miss that?
hope you've already recovered and doing fine Lahn! More power to you and to the whole Android Authority Team! God Speed! ^_^
hardly notice anything, great video. get well soon
I thought the phone would have gotten the Editors Choice image on it. Or we have to wait for your end of year round up? :)
whats the software that run it? is it nougat?
On 6:21, the model number is shown as A3000, istn't it One Plus3 or 3T has same model number?
love the way you emphasize jack ... people often take jack for granted till he goes for good in apple (stupid move!!)
jack is so massively important personally i wont even look at a phone without it.
so does vr work with this? if yes, whats a good headset i can use. thanks
Did you experience any heating issues?
I use this phone, yeah ... absolutely the best of the best. in my opinion, in terms of price, included technology feature. everything was really great
Why the initial apology? Everyone should sound as clear and articulate as you.
hey there,
m thinking of buying 3t is the gun metal the only colour which has 128 gb ? and how does it really looks (same as in the video?
thanks
I recently got this phone, and it is pretty good. It feels extremely solid in my hand and looks premium, the build quality is on par with my Huawei P9.
The overall performance is supurb, no stuttering or lagging whatsoever, and general app opening speed is also great. Comparable to my P9 but the performance is slightly more consistent on 3T. And man, I love the dark theme on settings menu!

The image does look sharper on 3T though, thanks to OIS, but the minimum shutter speed is limited to 0.1 second, which is a shame.
3T lasts longer with similar usage, though. I got 7 hours 30 minutes of SoT at 60% brightness on 3T and to me this is an impressive result. It charges faster than P9, too.
I'll sell my 3T since for me the camera is the most important bit, but for $495 which is how much I paid for this phone, it is purely impressive. Highly recommended.
Love your videos keep it up 👌👌👍👍
great video man, thanks for the effort and get well soon!
