OnePlus’ upcoming flagship smartphone, the OnePlus 10 Pro is expected to launch a bit earlier than its usual timeline as the China-based company has skipped or canceled the 9T smartphone this year.
Now, a tipster has shared through a tweet that the OnePlus will be hosting a launch event on 5th January in Las Vegas. This is the same day when the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is set to kick off. This could mean that the company is looking to unveil the OnePlus 10 Pro smartphone at the event.
Currently, it is not known if the company plans to unveil both — OnePlus 10 and 10 Pro or only one device will be made official. If the launch event is being hosted in the US, there’s a possibility that it’s a global debut and not limited to the Chinese market. Earlier, it was being reported that the OnePlus 10 series will be launched in January in China while the global launch will take place in March or April 2022.
The leaked image doesn’t mention OnePlus 10 or 10 Pro smartphones so there’s a possibility that the company has planned to unveil something else instead of its flagship phones. So, we will have to wait for more leaks or official announcements from the brand.
OnePlus doesn’t have a history of launching its smartphones at CES. The only device that the company unveiled at CES was its concept phone in 2020. But given the recent change in its business, the company might be trying a different strategy this time.
It has already been confirmed that the OnePlus 10 Pro will come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, joining the likes of Moto Edge X30 and Xiaomi 12, both of which are set to launch this month.
If the leaks are to be believed, then the phone will feature a 6.7-inch curved Quad HD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a single punch-hole cutout. It is expected to pack up to 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage.
In the camera department, there will be a Hasselblad-branded triple-camera setup on the back consisting of a 48-megapixel wide sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, and an 8-megapixel telephoto lens. On the front side, the device will have a 32-megapixel front-facing snapper for taking selfies and video calling.
The phone is said to be running the latest Android 12operating system with OxygenOS 12. It will be powered by a 5,000Amh battery with support for 125W fast charging.
