One plus one vs Xiaomi Mi3 comparison
Design and Display:
The Xiaomi Mi3 features a 5-inch display with a 1920 x 1080-pixel resolution with a pixel density of 440 ppi. While the other hand rival, The One plus one features a 5.5-inch display with 1920 x 1080-pixel resolution with the pixel density of 440 ppi. That means that both the gadgets have almost same screen size and the same pixel density and the image resolution. Xiaomi Mi3 has higher than its rival in terms of screen size.
The One plus one gives you slightly more screen space, not only because it’s fractionally larger, but because the Mi3 has on-screen controls with a border in the bottom.
Processor:
The Xiaomi Mi3 features a 2.3GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 8274AB  with a  2GB of RAM. While the One plus one features a  2.5 GHz quad core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 as well as 3 GB of RAM. Which means that the One plus one has a faster processor than the Xiaomi Mi3. And the RAM option makes a plus point for One plus one and but the working is same which leads to choose over One plus one than Xiaomi.
Storage:
The Xiaomi Mi3 features 16 GB of on-board ROM with an option of a 32 GB variant on board ROM too. But the phone is not supported with a external SDcard Slot. While the One plus one features 64 GB on-board storage. But the phone is not supported with a external SDcard Slot.
Camera:
The Xiaomi Mi3Â features the same UltraPixel sensor (f/2.0 aperture) found in the original Xiaomi Redmi phones, although it’s a better all-round performer than before. It also has a Duo Camera for depth perception which means that there’s a range of fancy features on offer, and 2-megapixel (f/2.0 aperture) front-facing camera which is excellent for selfies. But the front camera is not an HD version but resembles a high quality camera and resolution.
On the second half, the One plus one features a 13 megapixel sensor with fast 0.8 second capture speed. The One plus one camera is also known for the best photography so the One plus one takes the lead in terms of camera. The Intex Aqua Star Octa smartphone can also capture Ultra HD video, something the Xiaomi mi3 is incapable of and there are a range of smart functions, including “selective focus” which produces similar to Xiaomi Redmi without the additional lens. This new added features lets you choose over One plus one.
Operating System:
The Xiaomi Mi3 features Android 4.4 KitKat and Sense 6.0. The One plus one features CyanogenMod 11S and a new version of TouchWiz. Both have same operating systems but the Xiaomi Mi3 has a bigger advantage of the Android 5.0 lollipop update. So the Xiaomi leads in operating system over One plus one.
Battery:
The Xiaomi Mi3Â features a 3050Â mAh battery that is supposedly 40 per cent more efficient than the first Xiaomi Redmi, which could last up to two days with even 3G services. However Xiaomi Mi3Â has added aggressive power saver options to make sure your device lasts the distance and it’s very impressive.
The One plus one features a 3050mAh battery that will get you through the day. It also offers power saving features to match those of One plus one . Both devices are a step above the previous generation, giving much better endurance.
Conclusion whether which one is the best:
The Xiaomi Mi3 features a machined aluminium body that wraps around the sides making for a 90 per cent metal finish. There will be single color available: metallic grey. It’s a triumph of design, it looks stunning and feels sensational to hold.
The One plus one is mainly metallic, sticking to familiar design, but with a more tactile back for better grip. The big positives are that it is dustproof and resistant in liquid down to a metre in depth, and it’ll be available in black and white colors.
The Xiaomi Mi3 feels like the slicker device in daily use. The user interface is faster and although it has less options and features, the interface feels more sophisticated and mature. It offers class-leading sound quality, a great display, but the real winner is the design. In the battle of these two giants, Xiaomi Mi3Â takes it, but only just.
The One plus one offers a wider range of features and comes with great connectivity, a stunning display, plenty of power and a camera that performs well. However it feels like it could be faster in daily use and the unique features of the heart rate sensor and fingerprint scanner may well get turned off and ignored.
Price:
As per price, the Xiaomi Mi3 is available at Rs 4,920 and the One plus one is available in India at a price tag of 21,900 INR. The color variants are same for the devices.
