The OnePlus 6T should arrive soon. While we wait for the still unconfirmed release date, expect leaks to keep pouring in. Today, a fresh set of live photos of the phone have surfaced on the web but they only show the front of the device.

If you’ve been having doubts about the notch and its size on the OnePlus 6T, these images should finally convince you that OnePlus will retain the notch on its next flagship albeit with a new design. The OnePlus 6T will come with a water-drop notch similar to what we have seen from manufacturers such as Honor, OPPO, and Vivo.

[envira-gallery id=”213519″]

The notch is significantly smaller when compared to that of the OnePlus 6 and is home to the phone’s front-facing camera and the usual combination of light and proximity sensors. If you still don’t like the notch, we bet OnePlus will add a feature that lets you hide it.

Another feature of the phone these live photos confirm is the in-display fingerprint scanner. Yes, the OnePlus 6T will come with an in-display fingerprint scanner. This should be good news for those who skipped the OnePlus 5T and OnePlus 6 because the fingerprint sensor was moved to the back.

All you have to do is place your registered finger on the screen. OnePlus has put a fingerprint icon on the screen that shows you where to place your finger to unlock the device. The icon is also visible when the ambient display is turned on.

The OnePlus 6T will come with a Snapdragon 845 processor, up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. It will also come with dual rear cameras and not triple rear cameras. Sadly, OnePlus has confirmed that the phone will not come with an audio jack.

Sep 24, 2018

Xiaomi has started rolling out a new stable update to the POCO F1 (POCOPHONE F1). Sadly, the new update doesn’t bring MIUI 10 but comes as MIUI 9.6.22 and is bundled with fixes, optimizations, and last month’s security patch.

The update is 423MB in size and has begun to arrive on devices in India. It brings fixes to apps such as the camera, phone, and recorder. It is also said to bring Face Unlock (already available to Indian users) to users in Bangladesh, France, Nepal, Poland, Spain, and Sri Lanka.

The new update removes Mi Roaming, fixes a bug that affects the launching of several apps, and optimizes the camera’s launching process and image processing. It also brings August’s security patch. We hope the MIUI 10 stable update brings September or even October’s security update if it rolls out next month.

The POCOPHONE F1 has been termed the flagship killer’s killer due to its combination of flagship specs and low price. It is powered by the Snapdragon 845 processor with liquid cooling and packs up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.

Sep 24, 2018

Amid of the OnePlus 6T announcement, OnePlus is being sued by a German-based technology company for using the word ‘Dash’ in Europe. Bragi, the German company has already trademarked ‘Dash’ in Europe and claims that OnePlus is intentionally violating its trademark. They have accused the OnePlus of using the ‘Dash’ word purposefully for both its fast ‘Dash charging’ and ‘Dash Charger’ products.

Bragi is now working to file a lawsuit against the Chinese smartphone maker, OnePlus in the US also. It has pointed out that OnePlus’s desire to register a trademark ‘Dash Charger’ in the US and Europe, has led to filing the lawsuit against the OnePlus. Bragi uses the Dash branding for its wireless earphone in Europe.

As per reports from the past, it seems OnePlus is also working to change the name of its existing ‘Dash charging’ to ‘Warp charge’. Even at the launch of OnePlus 6, they did not refer to the name Dash charging in some countries while talking about the fast charging features of the device. Currently, there are no more details available regarding the lawsuit, but it is expected that OnePlus is going to lose the case.

OnePlus is not available for the comment yet, but we hope in the next few hours we will receive an official response from OnePlus too.
