OnePlus 3 Rumored Specs and Designs; To Come with New Renders, Powerful SD820 Chipset, Front Speakers

OnePlus 3, the OnePlus 2's successor, has been at the center of the rumor mill lately, implying that the latest flagship of OnePlus could come with a front speaker located right below its screen.  

The OnePlus 3 handset renders, particularly the back design as well as the front designs, were shown in the Mobile-Dad website, a Chinese publication site. As reported by GSM Arena, OnePlus has already made a decision that will possibly exclude the fingerprint scanner on their next handset. This move is most likely intended to give way for the new iris scanner feature.

Meantime, among the unexpected design features for the OnePlus 3 device is a front speaker that is quite uncommon in handsets nowadays (as the speakers are usually found at the back). Only a small number of smartphones at this time has this type of design, and two of these are the HTC One E9 and the HTC flagship, the HTC One M9.

Furthermore, in the aspect of the handset's specs, this latest device may most likely run the recently launched Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 for the processor. If there is truth in this report, the OnePlus 3 device can pretty well become the OnePlus' most powerful smartphone with its SD820 chipset that is believed to have a double performance ability, as compared to a Snapdragon 810 processor. In terms of the display resolution, Mobile-Dad, the Chinese publication, has revealed through their post a 1080p resolution. That being said, it appears that OnePlus will possibly opt not to manufacture any mobile device in 2016 with a screen display of a QHD.

These OnePlus 3 smartphone specific details will still have to be confirmed by the manufacturer. For now, the people who have been eagerly waiting for more information are advised not to make any conclusions, and to take all these leaks about the render with a little skepticism -- until the manufacturer finally releases some important details.
