OnePlus 3T vs OnePlus 3: Differences go both ways

2016-11-27
one plus just left everyone with a very interesting dilemma instead of waiting a full year to make its new flagship obsolete the company did just that four months later or did it I'm here even with pocket now and let's find out this is one plus three T versus one plus three some people claim that the one plus three T is to the one plus three like the iPhone 6s is to the iPhone 6 and that is right to a certain degree if you set both devices on a table it's really very difficult to tell them apart they're the same design materials measurements and you can't really tell the differences in weight distribution even the cases that work with the one plus three work with the one plus 3t like a charm the lack of a T on the newer model even hints to this being the same chassis but there are some differences inside for starters the T has the newer Snapdragon 801 processor versus the 820 which we can't even call old given its launch this year it's forced 13% larger battery storage options are still not expandable but they now extend 228 gigabytes and to go max storage you'll have to go for the newer gunmetal color option which I really like RAM is the same at 6 gigabytes dual SIM card support is still here and even the primary camera is technically the same what changes here is the newer AIS support and the sapphire lens cover on the camera in addition to the fact of the selfie shooter has doubled in megapixels the 1080p optic AMOLED panel is also the same meaning you will love the punchy color but this isn't the brightest AMOLED panel in the market and everything else you're pretty much holding the same phone from a hardware perspective software is a different story the one plus 3t is rocking the new or oxygen OS 3.5 with many changes that are inspired by nougat even if both devices are actually running marshmallow this means a new notification shade with quick launch icons that are customizable each launcher is nearly identical allowing for a better approach to circular icons and icon resizing across-the-board but the improvements include a new optimized grid for the widgets to be able to be resized in a more efficient manner I really enjoy using the shelf at the left as well the new update brings a lighter tone and more widget customization options and then there's my favorite feature from the one plus 3t allowing you to be able to lock applications whenever you want with your fingerprint everything else is more design refinements than anything else but the principle is the same this is one of the best and most customizable Android skins to date with options that quickly switch between capacitive keys when you want to in addition to essentials that the light like the operation of the notification switch on the side before switching to the one plus 3t for my review I was already working on the after the buzz for the oneplus three if anything this pulls the predecessor back into buzz because the T is actually replacing it in certain markets and really when you play with them it's really hard to tell the difference between using one or the other it wouldn't even be fair to call the Snapdragon 820 obsolete as it's only a year old and both phones show it by pushing day-to-day tasks and graphics intensive games like champs about the only time that I felt differences is in battery life where the 1 + 3 T is going a bit longer thanks to the larger battery and more power efficient internals and it's also great to see the Det charging makes a return as you're actually able to charge a full day of battery in pretty much 30 minutes or so I suggest watching once real audio review for you to learn the more interesting differences between the audio of the 1 + 3 T and the 1 + 3 but from where I stand I just really wish that the speaker design wasn't really so easy to muffle the cameras story is a very interesting one as well except for the sapphire Glen's cover and the e is on the 1 + 3 T the hardware is literally the same you can actually notice that in the resulting photos even under gloomy conditions both devices take really good photos and what pertains the color saturation dressed in detail in the light I do notice the results to be similar meaning they are good decent now what I call great with other competing flagships the selfie shooter now has double the megapixels and greater low-light performance in theory at least but I found the results of both cameras to be in need of really better stabilization at least through software and speaking of stabilization he is is now supported to make video recording better on the 1 plus 3t and that is true for the most part playing the video on each device you really can't tell the difference in stabilization it's not really until you pull it into the computer that you notice that the 1 + 3 T is a little more superior not actually significant and I guess the word significant is the best segue to end this video overall it's really hard to find differences between both devices so it's only fair for me to remind you that one device is not really designed to compete against the other the 1 plus 3t replaces the one plus 3 in certain markets for an extra $30 and only the latter is being sold in the rest of the other markets this is pretty much one plus trying to up the ante in certain markets given the holiday season and I think the move was smart given the reaction we've seen in certain countries like the UK if you're currently rocking a one plus three my thoughts are that you really don't need to upgrade and mainly because most of the changes that actually matter are software update away regardless of your market these are two devices I highly recommend especially when you consider all the package you're getting for $200 less than the nearest competitor folks just like this we've got more videos of the 1 plus 3t so make sure you follow us on social media and hit that subscribe button down below for more videos
