Yesterday I left a comparative, a little by way of experiment, in which we faced the new OnePlus 3 with the Galaxy S7 Edge, to see if it could be or not an authentic flagship killer. Samsung natural rival for the new OnePlusphablet, in any case, would be in fact the Galaxy A7 (2016) that resembles more in price and technical specifications and is who to be measured today. With which of the two you quedaríais you? You help decide it.
Design
You need to start recognizing that in the section on design both have features that would located them at a similar level, with good finishes in both cases, even if each one of them bet on different materials (metal for OnePlus 3 ) and metal combined with glass for the new Galaxy A7, and with two fingerprint readers. The main considerations to make in this regard, therefore, are the aesthetic considerations of appeal that each of them is us.
Dimensions
In the section on dimensions nor we have large differences between the two: the Samsung phablet is slightly more compact (15.27 x 7.47 cm front 15.15 x 7.41 cm) and slightly more fine (7.35 mm compared with 7.3 mm), but the OnePlus, on the other hand, is a little lighter (158 grams against 172 grams).
Screen
Equality is even greater if it fits on the screen, where limiting ourselves to the technical specifications section is difficult to find something to tip the scale of one side or the other: the two have a screen of 5.5 inch, with Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, which leaves a 401 PPIpixel density, and the two used AMOLED panels.
Performance
This is the section in which the OnePlus 3 probably get a greater advantage, thank you so much to assemble a more powerful processor (quad-coreSnapdragon 820 ) and 2.2 GHz maximum frequency Exynos 7580 of eight cores and 1.6 GHz maximum frequency, as having more RAM (6 GB to 3 GB). We have already seen, however, the RAM memory of the phablet of OnePlus does not render as much as you would expect with those numbers, so we cannot give by secure his victory in this sense.
Storage capacity
In the section on storage capacity, on the other hand, once again the distribution of points: on the one hand, the OnePlus 3 can boast of having double the internal memory the new Galaxy A7 (32 GB versus 16 GB); on the other hand, the Samsung phablet has in its favour having card slot micro-SD, which lacks the OnePlus, and that gives us the possibility to expand your storage externally.
Cameras
OnePlus phablet gets also a little ahead in the camera section, but only in regards to the number of megapixels, with 16 MP 8 MP, for the main and the front, respectively, 13 MP and 5 MP, since the Samsung phablet has lead, for example, in the opening (f/2.0 to f/1.9). The two are equipped with optical image stabilizer.
Autonomy
As always remember, we need to know the consumption also to be able to conclude to which device will offer us a better autonomy, something that we will only discover the actual tests of use, but for now we can say which is the phablet of Samsung which starts with advantage, since your battery is greater capacity (3000 mAh face 3400 mAh).
Price
Although the price has always been the main attraction of OnePlus, the truth is that this time the difference is not as large as one might expect: this has been announced for 400 euros, while the Galaxy A7 (2016) still not launched officially here, but import can be achieved by around 450 euros (and probably his official price does not change too when it gets here on sale directly).
