OnePlus 3T Review: T is the new S!

2016-11-21
hey what's up guys I'm cabby HD here and this this is the one plus 3t and there's just a couple things you need to know about this phone obviously it looks very familiar to the phone 1 plus released less than six months ago the one plus three one of the best budget phones out there for the record great phone for under 400 bucks highly recommended so the one plus three T is - the one plus three as the iPhone 6s was - the iPhone 6 basically T is the new S it's kind of an iteration Allah the phone that came out back in June it's a spec bump fit into the exact same design you wouldn't know it was new just by looking at it unless you knew exactly what you're looking for so here we go I'll tell you exactly what's new number one is you might have noticed is the slightly new color this is called gunmetal and you can see it versus a one plus three is silver you notice the difference right it's subtle it's slightly darker it's kind of more like a Space Gray type of thing I like it there's also a soft gold as well number two is it has a Snapdragon 820 one inside at the higher 2.35 gigahertz clock speeds so not under clocked like it is in the pixel so this is a slightly newer super high-end chip and when you pair that back with the same six gigabytes of RAM you have yourself a pretty high I mean one of the highest end spec sheets of any smartphone so number three and I think that this is my favorite is they fit a much larger battery in this phone in the exact same dimensions this one + 3 T is rocking a 3400 milliamp hour battery up from the 3000 milliamp hour battery you had before that is legit I've been preaching about you know if you can make a phone battery as big as possible even if the phone's a little bit thicker you should do it so now you're getting a 13% bigger battery with the 3 T in the same metal body that should be nice that should translate to much better battery life and screen on time number 4 is this is also now a 128 gigabyte phone so double the storage you had with one plus three was a 64 gigabyte phone tops so 100 when ta that should alleviate some of the concerns of people who really wanted expandable storage you still don't get that but I keep my entire spotify library downloaded for flights and twenty eight gigs was great for me number five is the cameras so the one plus 3t has the exact same 16 megapixel camera on the back that's no change still pretty damn good but it's now rocking a new 16 megapixel front-facing camera so a big upgrade from the 8 megapixel selfie camera from the oneplus 3 obviously you're only going to care about this if you take a lot of selfies or front-facing video but for what it's worth I did notice a difference in the quality of the photos and the videos from the front-facing camera it did seem to struggle a little bit with focus sometimes possibly since it's also an F 2.0 aperture but when you do now focus with this front-facing camera you can tell the difference and the selfies look really good from the 1 + 3 T nice and wide-angle decent colors decent dynamic range again and better sharpness and even a slightly shallower depth of field when your subject is closed and finally number 6 last but not least is the software so you note out of the box the 3t is running Android marshmallow still but with their upgraded very light oxygen OS and that should be upgraded to Android new get very soon and retaining all these features alongside the 1 plus 3 so the 1 plus 3 isn't becoming obsolete that would just be nuts in half a year they're still giving that a software upgrade as well but obviously the higher spec version this 3t replaces the 3 and has a couple new looks and features in oxygen OS as well so they're going to be selling this 3t for 439 so again still really high-end flagship specs for a relatively low price like the pixel with the same chip with a lower clock speed is what 650 bucks to start the galaxy s7 600 bucks you've looked at all the numbers on paper and in user experience this is a great phone for another pretty low price all the rest of the things I didn't talk about in this video are still exactly the same from the oneplus 3 review I'll link it below if you want to watch it again but it's the same great 1080p display same great size and metal build and form factor decent speakers it's still the fastest charging phone in the world I'm pretty sure right now so - charging is awesome to have so all those things plus the upgrades and about a $40 price hike for six months later that's pretty good in my opinion I'm liking this it kind of seems like oneplus is picking up sort of where Nexus left off before pixel showed up where people were really excited for a really mid-range to high-end phone that had really lightweight or pier stock Android for a really low price and the experience would be awesome well now pixels like 650 bucks so if you still want a lightweight Android experience for around half that price 400 bucks ish then seems like one plus three T is the way to go you know how I said the one plus three T is to the three as the 6s is to the six well turns out oneplus did this on purpose they did it for the exact reason the letter T comes one after s so like one better than s kind of one upping Apple in that way whatever maybe they're trolling but well played one plus three T gets my thumbs up in my nod of approval and it will probably be right up at the top like the highest end budget smartphones you can get the smartphone Awards 2016 is coming up if you haven't already noticed so that's something that we're thinking a lot about either way that's been it people said that one plus three owners should be mad because the phone is obsolete six months later no it's not that's still also one of the best budget smartphones of the whole year but that's pretty much all I have to say about the three T let me know what you guys think in the comments section below thank you for watching and talk to you guys the next one peace
