OnePlus is a Chinese smartphone manufacturer founded in December 2013.

OnePlus 3 teaser video showed a full view of the rumored device. However, it did not provide information about the device's release schedule.  

The leaked OnePlus 3 video via Times News gave a glimpse of a black phone that comes with a large screen display. It looked like 5.5 to 5.7 inches in measurement with an almost bezel-free format. With a unibody build and a metal framing, the device's rear camera comes with LED flash, while the fingerprint scanner seemed to have been placed at the back.

The leak also highlighted that the upcoming OnePlus device will feature a metal frame. The device's back, on the other hand, was a metal panel which OnePlus users point out as different when compared to the series' predecessors, International Business Times UK reported. OnePlus 2, the most recent model of the series in the market, came with a sandstone layer in its default wrap. This particular layer can be swapped out with either Kevlar or wood.

On top of the many details that were revealed in the video, one notable information was that the device was presented as One Plus 3. The company name spells the device name without spaces between the words. This is reportedly making fans confused.

Aside from the teaser video, the first image of the rumored OnePlus 3 also came out from the same report. Basing on the image, the device appeared different from the handset presented in the video. The leaked image featured a large device that has a thick bezel on its sides and a virtual home key.

OnePlus 3 device may come with a 1080p resolution with a 5.5-inch display and Corning Gorilla Glass 4. The device is also reported to run on Snapdragon 820 with two combo storage options, either 16 GB ROM, 4GB RAM combo or 64GB ROM and 5GB RAM. Reportedly, the rear camera comes with a 13 MP and a front-facing 5 MP shooter.

The OnePlus 3 predecessor OnePlus 2 has been in the market for quite some time. The  Chinese manufacturer OnePlus' major upgrade will be the release of this flagship handset. OnePlus 2 device also went through constant price drop of $349, which is said to  suggest that a forthcoming flagship device is about to come soon.
