OnePlus is yet to officially reveal the launch date of the OnePlus 6T but there is no doubt its launch is just around the corner. An invitation letter that apparently is for the OnePlus 6T India launch has just leaked and it points to an October 17 launch date. This is the second time this date is coming out. An earlier leaked screenshot published a few weeks back had teased an October 17 launch. This one seems to confirm that date even though OnePlus is yet to officially reveal the date. 

Just like the previous OP6T teaser, the launch invite also contains the tagline “Unlock The Speed”. The tagline is believed to refer to the device’s new in-display fingerprint sensor. The OnePlus 6T is said to depart from the usual rear-mounted fingerprint sensor to make use of a fast sensor placed on the display. This feature has already been confirmed by the Chinese company.
