OnePlus 3 Review!

Dash Charging

The OnePlus 3 introduces Dash Charging, a standout feature that significantly alters charging habits. Marques Brownlee highlights the efficiency of the four-amp charger, which charges the phone so quickly that it eliminates the need for overnight charging. This technology maintains its speed even when the phone is in use, unlike other fast-charging phones that slow down under similar conditions 1.

You can still charge every night if you want to, but when you plug in and get 60% charge in half an hour, you kind of stop needing to.

Although the phone lacks wireless charging due to its metal back, the convenience of Dash Charging compensates for this absence 1.

   

Battery Life

The OnePlus 3's battery performance is commendable but leaves room for improvement. Marques Brownlee notes that while the phone's 3000 mAh battery provides nearly four hours of screen-on time, he expected slightly better performance given the device's specifications 2.

I got to wonder though what they could have done if they didn't make the phone so thin.

--- Marques Brownlee

The phone's slim design may have compromised battery capacity, but its near-stock Android experience and efficient RAM usage contribute to a smooth user experience 2.
