The editors didn't like
Slippery body
Legitimate worry about software updates
No real "wow" factor
Subpar vibration motor
Average battery life at best
No sound adjustments like previous generations had
Mediocre external speaker
OnePlus has a pension for slow OS updates
No telling if this phone will struggle with that too
Display The color calibration doesn't seem very good
And you can see some PenTile artifacts at 1080p
Headphone jack is on the bottom (this might not matter to everyone.)
No microSD slot
Nonremovable battery
Camera is mediocre compared to other flagship phones
Display could be brighter
Slightly more expensive phones have more features
The competition has heated up
But if you're shopping for a premium Android phone at a low price
OnePlus is still the name
Lowlight camera performance
Comparatively low screen resolution
No SD card slot
6GB of RAM with a 20 app limit is pretty pointless out of the box. Customers will need to root the device to take full advantage of the hardware
The display could be better
No MicroSD slot
OnePlus' slow ~8 month update time
I wish it were waterproof. Other than that… I am a huge fan of this phone — especially at its current price [edited]
Lower-resolution screen
Some corners cut in network and Wi-Fi support
Low-light imaging isn't great
Protruding camera and slippery body mandate a case
No expandable storage
Alert Slider can't be customised
No wireless charging
It's not currently compatible with Verizon Wireless
MicroSD
Not wireless charging
GPS and cellular issues (T-Mobile)
Barely makes use of available RAM (even after update)
Video quality is lacking
Weird bugs and oddities keep it from perfection
No microSD card slot
Protruding camera lens
Tends to overheat. The preapplied screen protector is thoughtful but distracting. The budget phone field has gotten a lot more crowded
Mediocre Screen
Metal design a step back from unique OnePlus identity
Display only 1080p
Battery life is just average
Camera suffers in all but the absolute best lighting
Doesn't work on Verizon or Sprint
No SD card expansion
Quick charging limited to included cable and power brick
Colors on the display are not properly balanced
Whites appear blue
Battery life is below expectations
Super slow adaptive brightness
Loudspeaker is not loud enough
Lacks a bit in clarity
The camera has a distinct bulge. Power users may be disappointed that the phone doesn't have a swappable battery or expandable storage

With all of the advancements in store this year, OnePlus has bumped up the price to a smooth $399. And even though it's more expensive than it's predecessor, I'm not sure how you can say that the OnePlus 3 doesn't justify its price. At the same time, it h...
