A few days ago, a mysterious device visited GFXBench database which rumors suggest was the upcoming OnePlus 3 Mini. Of course, the rumor spread like wildfire but was eventually extinguished by OnePlus CEO Carl Pei after he reaffirmed on his Twitter account that there will not be any OnePlus 3 Mini handset

Of course, this news doesn’t came as a surprise to us since the company had already revealed earlier on that they will only be focusing on one premium flagship each year, clamping down the possibility of having a OnePlus X successor.
Likewise, OnePlus is already currently facing an uphill task of trying to meet the demand of their OnePlus 3 flagship so much so that they had recently announced that the company had decided to halt the sales of the device in 24 countries for more than a month. All these are not in favor of a new handset from the company any time soon.
