The OnePlus 3 is currently one of the most highly anticipated flagships set to debut soon and it now looks like the smartphone will break cover on June 14.
A slew of leaks have been heralding the arrival of OnePlus 3 for quite some time now, and the rumored specifications hint at an exciting device all around. Moreover, OnePlus is also planning a special virtual reality launch experience, which already generated a lot of hype.
Before the big event, the company launched its OnePlus Loop VR headset, which sold out in no time. OnePlus has yet to announce an official date for the OnePlus 3 unveiling, but more information has now leaked on the matter.
One of Android Authority's readers apparently had a chat with a OnePlus representative about the Loop VR, and asked about the upcoming flagship smartphone as well. The representative reportedly told the tipster that the OnePlus 3 will debut next month.
"The OnePlus 3 will be fully revealed on June 14th through our VR launch experience but you can still watch it without a headset," the representative reportedly confirmed to the tipster, based on a screenshot of the conversation shared by Android Authority.
The representative did not confirm any other information regarding the OnePlus 3, but leaks did a pretty good job so far in revealing what to expect. Based on information surfaced so far, the OnePlus 3 will have a 5.5-inch full HD (1080p) display, a Snapdragon 820 processor, Adreno 530 graphics and two different configurations when it comes to RAM and storage.
One variant should have 6 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal storage, while the other should pack 4 GB of RAM with 32 GB of built-in storage, according to benchmarks. The OnePlus 3 should also feature NFC connectivity and run Android N once Google is ready to release it.
In terms of design, leaked renders reveal a sleek device that basically looks like a combination of the OnePlus 2 and the HTC 10, sporting a clean design language and a metallic construction.
It's all still in the rumor state at this point, but the official launch is rapidly approaching. If this latest tip turns out to be accurate, the OnePlus 3 will make its VR debut in three weeks and we'll be here to keep you up to date.
