Design

At first glance, the OnePlus 10T and the OnePlus 10 Pro have the same look. But there are a few important differences you should consider. First of all, there is no doubt about the fact that the OnePlus 10 Pro is the winner of the design comparison. It offers two main advantages: the presence of a curved screen at the sides, and the presence of an aluminum frame, as well as a rear glass protected by Gorilla Glass Victus. The OnePlus 10T comes with a glass back as well, but it is protected by Gorilla Glass 5 and the frame is made of plastic. Further, the phone is thicker, even though it has a smaller battery. So the Pro variant is definitely better in terms of aesthetics. Note that the U.S. version of the OnePlus 10 Pro comes with the IP68 certification making it dustproof and waterproof, while the 10T and the other global variants of the 10 Pro do not offer a certification against water and dust.

 

Display

One of the most important advantages of the OnePlus 10 Pro over the OnePlus 10T is the display. First of all, it comes with a higher Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3216 pixels. Further, it has the LTPO 2.0 enabling an adaptive refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz. The 10T has a lower Full HD+ resolution and it lacks the LTPO technology. For the rest, the two AMOLED panels are not so different. They are able to show up to one billion colors and they support the HDR10+ certification, as well as an in-display fingerprint reader. These phones also come with good stereo speakers for an improved audio experience. Note that the display of the Pro variant is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus just like the glass back, while the 10T has the weaker Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

 

Specs & Software

When it comes to the hardware, the OnePlus 10T is the winner of this comparison. Indeed, it has a more powerful chipset: the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 found on the 10T is actually an upgraded version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 found on the OnePlus 10 Pro. It is a chipset built with a 4 nm production process sporting an octa-core architecture. It is composed of a Cortex X2 CPU running at a max frequency of 3.19 GHz, three Cortex A710 CPUs running at 2.85 GHz, and four Cortex A510 CPUs running at 1.8 GHz, as well as an Adreno 730 GPU. The chipset is paired with up to 16 GB of RAM, while the max amount of RAM found on the Pro version is 12 GB. The software is the same and there is not any change: Android 12 customized by OxygenOS 12.1.

 

Camera

The camera setup of the OnePlus 10 Pro is actually more advanced than the one found on the 10T. It is composed of a 48 MP main camera with OIS and laser autofocus, an 8 MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom and OIS, and a 50 MP ultrawide camera with a FOV of 150 degrees, all with the Hasselblad Camera for Mobile features such as realistic color calibration and XPan mode. The cameras of the OnePlus 10T are not co-engineered with Hasselblad and, while the main sensor is a more interesting 50 MP Sony IMX766 camera, the secondary sensor are way inferior with their 8 + 2 MP resoultion. The OnePlus 10T loses even when it comes to the selfie camera, with a 16 MP snapper instead of a 32 MP one.

 

Battery

The OnePlus 10 Pro provides a longer battery life thanks to its bigger 5000 mAh battery, but the 10T charges faster thanks to 150W fast charging. However, the 10T lacks the 50W wireless charging technology found on the Pro variant.

 

Price

The OnePlus 10T is priced at €720/$720 in its base variant (prices vary depending on the market, while the OnePlus 10 Pro can currently be found at about €800/$800 thanks to online street prices. Now you know the differences: which one would you pick?
