In terms of connectivity, the Opus 3 comes with dual-SIM card slots with 21Mbps HSDPA connectivity in the primary SIM card slot, while the second SIM card slot supports 2G connectivity. It competes with the likes of the Xiaomi Redmi Note, the Lava Iris X5, the Panasonic Eluga S, and the Karbonn Titanium S19. Of all the competitors, the Opus 3 stands out due to its large 2,500 mAh battery, though it is not as large as the 3,100 mAh battery used in the Redmi Note. But then again, the Redmi Note has a larger 5.5-inch screen and an octa-core processor to feed power to.
