Beside the 100mAh of missing battery the 3 is of course better in every aspect. But if you are happy with your one dont upgrade. If you arent simply do it.
Even then, 100mAh won't matter considering the gains in efficiency of the 820's 14nm versus the 28nm of the 801. The DDR4 as well. In fact I'd expect it to generally have better battery life than the OPO for just those two reason alone.

I was very pleased with my OPO, however a family member broke their stupid cheap tracfone LG device running antique version of android, so to help them out, I sold them my OPO 64gb and ordered the new Oneplus 3, I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. The new phone is great, and they are extremely happy with my old OPO.

The only rough part has been all the tutoring they have needed to fully benefit from the more modern android OS.
This will be easier for me moving forward however, as I have installed CM13 on both phones, so it will be easy for me to guide them in their questions that will inevitably come along.

Yes, it is absolutely worth upgrading. I hate the term flagship killer, and no the OnePlus 3 isn't one, it's a flagship in its own right.

I love my OPO but my new OP3 is better in every aspect, I never felt the need to upgrade to OPX or OP2 until the OP3 arrived. My wife still has her OPO and mine it's in the drawer as a backup phone just in case.

I upgraded from OPO to OP3 last week and it's really worth it.
Apart from a few wifi issues I'm facing, the phone is awesome. Overall much faster and everything is better - performance, camera, etc. If you're looking for a new phone then go for it.
That being said, I wasn't really facing any issues with my OPO. It was super smooth and still gave decent battery life.
