In 2016, China-based smartphone maker OnePlus adopted the biannual refresh cycle for its flagship smartphones and the company has stuck to that strategy since then. In the second half of the year, the company launches an upgraded variant of its first half’s smartphone with a ‘T’ prefix in its name.
This year, the company launched the OnePlus 7 and OnePlus 7 Pro smartphones and the company is now expected to launch the OnePlus 7T Pro smartphones. A few days ago, the upcoming smartphone’s live images were leaked online and this time, the launch date of the OnePlus 7T Pro has been leaked.
If the new leak is to be believed, then the OnePlus 7T Pro smartphone will be launched on 15th October. The reported launch date is in line with the previous smartphone launches by the company.
To recall, the OnePlus 6T was launched in October last year while the OnePlus 5T made its debut in the month of November. The OnePlus 3T, the first device that started this lineup, was also launched in the month of November. Since OnePlus follows Chinese traditions, there was no OnePlus 4T as Chinese considers number 4 unlucky.
The front images of the alleged OnePlus 7T Pro smartphone revealed that it features a notch-less display, similar to the OnePlus 7 Pro. The edges of the phone are curved, and its bottom bezels appear very thin.
The speaker placed on the slim-sized top bezel of the phone appears more prominent than the OnePlus 7 Pro handset. The notch-less design suggests that the smartphone will be equipped with a pop-up selfie snapper.
There is a vertical triple camera unit in the upper half of the rear shell. The first two camera sensors are placed together and there is a small gap between the second and third sensor. An LED flash can be also below the triple camera unit. There is no rear-mounted fingerprint scanner since it seems to be embedded under the display. The rear design of the upcoming 7T Pro seems identical to the 7 Pro smartphone.
The ‘T’ edition smartphones from OnePlus usually carries improved specs but keeps design identical to the original model. So, there is a possibility that the OnePlus 7T Pro may look like the OnePlus 7 Pro smartphone, but come with enhanced specs.
If the rumors are to be believed, then the OnePlus 7T Pro could be fueled by the new 2.96GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ octa-core processor and it may feature improved cameras. There is a possibility that it may come with new color options. We expect to know more about the phone in the coming weeks.
