The OnePlus 9RT made its initial debut in China in October. It is being rumored to launch in India for months. Recent reports have suggested that the device will make its entry into the country with a different name. However, a new report now says that the smartphone will retain its original name with minute changes and will be available in two memory configurations.

According to a report by The Mobile Indian, the OnePlus 9RT will launch in India as ‘OnePlus 9 RT’. There will be a space between the 9 and the RT in the branding.

For the last few days, we have been hearing that the handset will go official in India as OnePlus RT. If the new report is to be believed, it won’t be the case.

Further, the report states that the phone will be sold in 6GB + 128GB and 8GB + 128GB variants. These SKUs are said to retail at ₹39,999 and ₹34,999 respectively. There’s a chance that the top version could cost even lower at ₹37,999.

At the same, tipster Yogesh Brar says that there will not be a 6GB RAM variant. He continues to stand by his word that the handset will cost between ₹40,000 and ₹44,000.

Lastly, the OnePlus 9RT is expected to release in India in mid-December along with the OnePlus Buds Z2. With its debut, OnePlus is tipped to reduce the price of the OnePlus 9R to ₹34,999.
