Bookings for the much-awaited OnePlus 10 Pro are now open in China, according to an official post on Weibo, meaning it shouldn’t take much longer for the flagship phone to become available globally as well.

Pre-sale will be going live at 10 o’clock (2 am) on January 4th in China and bookings are totally free of cost. Registration will even grant you a gift pack worth 1000 Yuan or around $157, so there’s that.

Previously, Pete Lau, chief product officer of OPPO and CEO of OnePlus, announced that the OnePlus 10 Pro will be going live in January 2022. Rumors had earlier set a January 5th release date but it has now been officially confirmed to be a day earlier. We aren’t complaining though, since the sooner, the better.

There is no word on the launch of the vanilla model at the event but it’s quite obvious now that it will be unveiled sometime after the Pro variant.

In a Weibo post, the OnePlus CEO had also recently revealed that the OnePlus 10 Pro will come with an LTPO 2.0 display which should result in better battery life. LTPO tech was developed by Apple and allows a more flexible refresh rate ranging between 1Hz and 120Hz. Other display specs include a size of 6.7-inches, QHD+ resolution, and that it would be manufactured by Samsung.

In the camera department, the smartphone will have a triple-camera setup on the rear, comprised of a 48-megapixel primary sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, and an 8-megapixel lens with 3x optical zoom support.

The Chinese smartphone brand OnePlus seems to be gearing up for multiple releases in the Indian market as recent leaks indicated the imminent launch of the OnePlus 9RT and now, news leaks have surfaced of the company preparing for another launch in the near future.

According to 91mobiles, tipster Yogesh Brar has spotted a new OnePlus smartphone which recently revived the BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) certification. A screenshot of the BIS database reveals that the device carries the model number IV2201.

Yogesh Brar further states that the device carries the internal codename “Ivan” and hints at it being a Nord-branded device. The device could be the next generation lower-mid range offering from the brand AKA the OnePlus Nord CE or even an entirely new moniker.

The BIS certification indicates that we can expect the device to launch in early 2022 and are sure to hear more about it in the coming days.

However, OnePlus won’t be sitting idly till then as reports have surfaced of the OnePlus 9RT to be released in India in the month of December only. The launch was previously expected to happen in early 2022 but OnePlus might be saving that for the upcoming OnePlus 10, which will carry the new SoC from Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.

According to reports, the OnePlus 9RT will arrive in India carrying the same specs as the Chinese variant with minor adjustments to the naming scheme and is expected to be priced at ₹40,000 for the 8 GB + 128 GB configuration.

As for the specs, the OnePlus 9RT is powered by the Snapdragon 888 chipset paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB internal storage. Its display is sized 6.62-inches and is an E4 OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 1300nits peak brightness, HDR10+ support, and 600Hz touch response. It packs a 4,500mAh battery with support for 65W fast charging. Its rear camera setup comprises a 50MP Sony IMX766 primary camera, a 16MP wide-angle lens, and a macro lens.

OnePlus CEO Pete Lau has confirmed that the company’s next-generation devices will be powered by the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor. While he did not explicitly mention the OnePlus 10 series as part of the announcement post, it is quite obvious that the company’s upcoming flagship series will be equipped with the same.

Pete Lau then went on to say that OnePlus’ software and hardware development resources are focused on optimizing the Snapdragon processor as much as possible, which should result in a highly optimized software experience.

Unlike its predecessors, the OnePlus 10 series phones will be launched in January, at least in the Chinese market. This will make it one of the very first to feature the flagship Qualcomm chipset. A global launch is expected only in March or April though, in line with previous launches.

As for specs, the OnePlus 10 Pro is expected to feature a 6.7-inch curved Quad HD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and a single punch-hole on the left side of the screen. Its flagship chipset will be supported by 8GB or 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 128GB or 256GB of UFS 3.1 internal storage.

In the camera department, the OnePlus 10 Pro will feature a Hasselblad triple-lens setup consisting of a 48-megapixel wide sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens, and an 8-megapixel telephoto lens.

The design of the device will likely be going through some big changes this year with the rear camera module getting a significant size boost, renders suggest. The rear cameras will be housed within a squarish module aligned to the left.
