If OnePlus 2 and HTC 10 had a baby: OnePlus 3 promo render leaks!

Just yesterday, we were sifting through everything we know so far about the upcoming reiteration of the “flagship killer” — the OnePlus 3. Some leaks have shown us real-life photos of its full-metal body, and some benchmark listings have confirmed a Snapdragon 820 SoC with 4 GB or 6 GB (could be two variants) of RAM. But now, we get to see what looks like a pretty official promo render, thanks to serial leakster Evan Blass (a.k.a. @evleaks).

The image looks a lot like what we've seen in the previously mentioned photos. A handset that does away with the grippy Sandstone back, and replaces it for a matte-finished metal casing, complete with the obligatory antenna lines. The camera module kind of reminds us of the ones we see on the Galaxy S6 and later, while the overall design language has switched away from the typical shapes of the OnePlus One and OnePlus 2, and looks kind of HTC 10-ish.

Of course, we are not pointing fingers, calling “stolen” or “copycat”, just doing what the human brain does best – looking for similarities. In all honesty, it looks like a pretty sleek handset and we can't wait to see more of it, or even get to play with one, when the time comes!

In an extra bit of info, @evleaks corrected previous rumors that claimed the battery of the OnePlus 3 will have a 3,500 mAh capacity, by saying it will be a 3,000 mAh juicer instead. However, he does confirm an AMOLED display. Now, all that's left is to find out if it's a 5" or 5.5" panel, as the two rumors are still juxtaposed.
