OnePlus 3 smiles for the camera once again

It has been almost a year since the release of the OnePlus 2 — the “flagship killer” for 2015 (or even for 2016, according to its creators) — and it seems that the time of its successor to roll out is near. Now, OnePlus is still pretty mum about an actual release date, but the OnePlus 3 has already been leaked numerous times, real life photos of the phone and its box included.

Now, we get another photo session of the upcoming handset in all of its metal glory. That's right, it seems Sandstone Black will be gone for good, at least from the flagship's body. In fact, OnePlus seems to have given up on a lot of the design elements that made its previous flagships recognizable. Is this in response to the critique that the OnePlus 2 looked too similar to the OnePlus One? Or is it just in effort to keep up with market trends?

Leaked benchmarks hint that we may get two versions of the OnePlus 3 – one with 4 GB RAM and 32 GB of storage, and one with 6 GB of RAM, and 64 GB of Storage. The “base model” OnePlus 3 is rumored to don a $310 price-tag, while the “premium” version's pricing is still a complete mystery. Reports say that we should expect a mid-May unveiling, with a launch coming in June. Well, it's almost time, then!
