The Bad Things
Display : The color calibration doesn't seem very good, and you can see some PenTile artifacts at 1080p.
RAM : 6GB of RAM in this phone is mostly a marketing gimmick.
Battery : The OnePlus 3 squeaks by with average battery life, but OP used a smaller battery this year than it did last year.

Buttons : I dislike the tiny unlabeled capacitive buttons.
Dash Charge again : You only get fast charging with the included adapter and cable.
