The OnePlus 8 series is expected to launch next month. OnePlus has already begun accepting applications for its “The Lab” program which will see selected applicants get a review unit (that they get to keep) of the OnePlus 8 series before the launch.
While we already know what the phones look like thanks to 3D renders and an alleged live photo leak of the OnePlus 8 Pro, a new leak has surfaced that reveals a new color variant of the flagship. The source of the leak is Steve Hemmerstoffer, best known as @OnLeaks on Twitter, and he has partnered with iGeeksBlog this time.
This image is said to be official press renders according to the source and it shows the green variant of the phone. This is a first for OnePlus and will likely be the favorite among buyers.
The OnePlus 8 Pro swaps the motorized pop-up selfie camera for one placed inside a punch hole. There is now a groove at the top of the device since there is no camera module sliding out. Above the display is a slit for the earpiece and one of the two stereo speakers.
OnePlus has kept the vertical camera design from the OnePlus 7 Pro and OnePlus 7T Pro. However, there is now a fourth camera sensor flanking the setup on the left. The laser focus module and redesigned LED flash are now positioned below the fourth camera sensor. The familiar OnePlus logo sits below the camera housing but the OnePlus name at the bottom is the new one which is written in uppercase.
The bottom of the OnePlus 8 Pro is home to the second speaker which is no longer a grille but two slits. The USB Type-C port is in the middle and there a microphone right next to it. The volume rocker is on the left while the power button and alert slider (which looks smaller by the way) are on the right.
The OnePlus 8 Pro will be powered by the Snapdragon 865 processor. It will have fast wireless charging and reverse wireless charging, a first for OnePlus phones.
