OnePlus 3 to pack 6GB RAM suggests benchmark

Having made an appearance at the AnTuTu benchmark in March, OnePlus' upcoming flagship smartphone has now been spotted at GFXBench and Geekbench. The OnePlus 3 bearing code name, Rain, now has two variants listed at Geekbench – A3000 and A3003, respectively.

The benchmark listing suggests that both the variants would run Android Marshmallow 6.0.1. The A3000 and A3003 use Snapdragon 820 processor, but what is interesting is that the A3000 model of OnePlus 3 packs a 6GB RAM, according to Geekbench.

AnTuTu and GFXBench on the contrary claim a 4GB RAM for the Rain A3000 model and it seems like the Geekbench model is a different variant and potentially stronger model, according to a report in PhoneArena. Other hardware specifications include 64GB internal storage, 8 megapixel front facing camera and a 16 megapixel rear camera with the ability to capture 4K video.

The camera features of the smartphone include autofocus, face detection, HDR photo, touch focus and flash. In terms of connectivity, the phone supports GPS, Bluetooth and NFC. Screenshots of the benchmark tests were first posted by WinFuture.

The OnePlus 3 is likely to pack a 5.5in screen, similar to that of its predecessor OnePlus that was released in August 2015. The OnePlus 2, for a comparison, uses the Snapdragon 810 chip featuring an octa-core processor coupled with 4GB RAM (for the 64GB storage variant). It has a 13 megapixel rear camera and a five megapixel front-facing camera and a 3300mAh battery inside.
