OnePlus 3 rumored to be unveiled on April 7th; specs leak from AnTuTu

You might recall the big deal made last year by OnePlus when it unveiled the OnePlus 2 in VR. We don't expect anything like that this year when the company unveils the OnePlus 3. The latest rumor has the phone being officially introduced on April 7th during a OnePlus event in Beijing. And thanks to a trip through the AnTuTu benchmark site, we have an idea of what to expect from the phone in the way of specs.

The OnePlus 3, model number A3000, features a 5.5-inch screen with a 1080 x 1920 FHD resolution. Under the hood is a Snapdragon 820 chipset carrying a quad-core CPU (offering Qualcomm's home made Kryo cores), and the Adreno 530 GPU. 4GB of RAM is inside, along with 32GB of native storage. A 16MP camera adorns the back of the device, and an 8MP front-facing camera is used to shoot selfies and video chats. OxygenOS, based on Android 6.0.1, is pre-installed.

OnePlus had positioned the OnePlus 2 as the 2016 Flagship Killer, but that turned out to be false bravado on the part of the manufacturer. Perhaps that is why OnePlus is being low key with the OnePlus 3.

For now, you can use a pencil to draw a circle around the rumored April 7th date. Once we see more evidence that the OnePlus 3 will be introduced on that date, you can draw another circle using a pen.
