Sometimes tech journalists write about leaked phones as having been ‘spotted in the wild’. Well that statement is surprisingly literal in this case…
The OnePlus 3 has seemingly been leaked yet again, this time caught on camera in a bush. The two new photos were posted to Twitter by reputable leaker Steve Hemmerstoffer, who cites the original source as Chinese social media site Weibo.
Check out the photos below:
Naturally we’re unable to confirm the legitimacy of these images, but the phone pictured is identical to the one we’ve seen repeatedly leaked over the recent weeks. It seems that the OnePlus 3 will, in fact, look like last year’s OnePlus 2 from the front, while the back will be styled closer to the HTC One M9.
