OnePlus is all set to announce the OnePlus 7T on Thursday, September 26. The company’s top-end flagship now competes with the likes of Huawei’s premium Mate and P series smartphones. So, it’s no surprise that the company is looking to get an edge over the newly announced Mate 30 series flagships. And thanks to the ongoing trade war, the OnePlus 7T has a major advantage over the recently announced Mate 30 Pro: Google Apps.

OnePlus 7T

OnePlus wasn’t subtle when it revealed earlier today that the OnePlus 7T will come with Android 10 out of the box. On a regular day, this is not really a big feat to boast about, especially since the Mate 30 series also comes with Android 10 out of the box. But OnePlus adds that it is technically the first OEM to release a phone with Android 10 and Google Apps out of the box, with no downloads required.

It’s clearly a dig at the new Huawei Mate 30 series smartphone which comes without Google Apps. Sideloading these apps isn’t exactly hard but not having it out of the box is a big disadvantage for the new Huawei models in the international market. And OnePlus is looking to take advantage of this fact.

With the OnePlus 7T launch on Thursday, the company will have at least three models in the market with stable Android 10 onboard based on its OxygenOS 10. The stable release of Android 10 is already rolling out to the OnePlus 7 Pro and 7 models this week. OxygenOS 10 brings features such as notifications segregation, Wi-Fi sharing, a new game space, and a smarter ambient display.
