This year OnePlus has toned down their marketing, the Flagship Killer and Never Settle rhetoric is gone in favour of a more subtle “It’s about time” marketing slogan. So how does the OnePlus 3 stand up to the competition? In the end, that’s a personal decision but we’ve pegged the OnePlus 3 against the two of the latest and greatest flagships, LG G5 and Samsung Galaxy S7 for your comparison.

Without a hands on with the new OnePlus 3 it’s not possible to determine real world performance for responsiveness, cameras, touch sensors and battery etc. Hopefully, OnePlus will send us a review unit and we will give it the full Ausdroid treatment.
How does the OnePlus 3 stack up for you? Tell us in the comments.
