The India launch of the much-awaited OnePlus 9RT and OnePlus Buds Z2 is now closer than ever as the products have now gained official support pages on the OnePlus website for the country. The former was spotted under the ‘Phone’ section while the latter was seen under ‘Accessories’, tipster Mukul Sharma told 91mobiles.

Clicking on both, however, leads to a page saying that “The page is coming soon.” The OnePlus Buds Z2 do pop up on Google though with the tagline “Play with silence”.

The OnePlus 9RT was previously expected to be launched in November but the date has been pushed further due to an unknown reason. The phone is a successor to the OnePlus 9R launched earlier this year and brings along a number of meaningful upgrades. In China, it was already released on October 19th. Some rumors suggest that it could be rebranded as the OnePlus RT in India.

As for 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.

The OnePlus Buds Z2 come with an upgraded design that has done away with plastic tips in favor of in-ear silicone ones for a more comfy fit. The earbuds feature 11mm drivers and support AAC and SBC Bluetooth codecs. But perhaps the best bit is the all-new ANC support with claims of reducing noise by up to 40dB. The battery life is claimed to be 7 hours without the case.

We are heading to the last month of this year which also brings us closer to the festive season. In December, there are phone launches from top Chinese smartphone brands thanks to the vouch of the availability of the recently announced Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset. That said, there will be more mid-range phones coming out than budget-centric phones. Some of the confirmed and rumoured phone launches are from brands like Motorola, Xiaomi, OnePlus, Realme, Redmi, and Micromax.

1. Motorola Edge X30(Edge 30 Ultra)

Motorola is expected to launch one of the worlds first Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 powered flagship smartphones. Reportedly, the company will launch a device dubbed Motorola Edge X30(a.k.a Edge 30 Ultra) on December 9. The company on its social media handle has confirmed its arrival. Although there are only a few days left for its release, there’s still not much to learn about its specs.

So far we know that it could feature a 6.67-inch screen with a 144Hz AMOLED display. It is expected to have great cameras with a 50MP + 50MP + 2MP triple rear camera setup and a single 60MP selfie lens.

2. Xiaomi 12

Next up we have the upcoming Xiaomi 12 which will be another Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 powered device. The smartphone is rumoured to launch on December 12 booting with the new MIUI 13 software skin.

A recent report revealed that the smartphone will come with a triple camera system at the rear and will have an AG Glass body. The phone is expected to have a 50MP primary lens. Our exclusive screen protector leak of the Pro variant confirmed that the device may have a punch-hole screen with thinner bezels.

3. OnePlus RT

OnePlus RT a.k.a the OnePlus 9RT has been in the news for a long time. The smartphone is already available in the Chinese market selling with the moniker 9RT, however, the phone will debut as the OnePlus RT in the Indian region.

Unfortunately, the Indian launch date of the device is yet to be known but since many details are known, we expect it to debut soon. What we know is that the OnePlus RT may come at a starting price of Rs. 39,999 and will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC.

4. Redmi K50 series

Xiaomi’s Redmi is expected to launch the Redmi K50 series in the Chinese market. However, the exact date is unconfirmed. But, the leaks have taken over the internet and revealed plenty of the series’ details.

The Redmi K50 is expected to come with four different chipsets like the Snapdragon 870(a mid-range model), Snapdragon 8 Gen 1(flagship model), Dimensity 7000, and Dimensity 9000(game-centric model). All the phones in the series will boot on the upcoming MIUI 13 and are expected to debut by the end of this month. Later, these models could launch globally with different monikers.

5. Realme Narzo 50A Prime, Realme C35

Realme has been quiet for the last couple of weeks and that could mean that the company was working on a few phones under wraps. Recently, the company touted that it will soon launch a premium flagship smartphone and it was later revealed to be the successor of the Realme GT, the Realme GT 2 Pro.

Anyway, this premium flagship is nowhere to be expected to launch this month as the phone is yet to pass plenty of certifications before it releases. What could arrive are two budget-centric phones – the Realme Narzo 50A Prime and Realme C35.

Both the Narzo 50A Prime and the C35 will supposedly be the extensions of the 50 series and C-series respectively. That said, expect entry-level specs with big batteries as the key feature.

6. Xiaomi 11i, Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge

Xiaomi recently launched the Redmi Note 11T 5G in India and it looks like another Note 11 series phone may land in the market but with a different moniker. Xiaomi is expected to bring the China-exclusive Redmi Note 11 Pro+ in India with the moniker Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge.

The Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge is expected to bring a whopping 120W fast charging support and a 6.67-inch screen with a 120Hz refresh rate. The phone is expected to come powered by a mid-range MediaTek Dimensity SoC. The Xiaomi 11i, on the other hand, is expected to be another device with some downgraded specs sheet over the HyperCharge model.

7. Moto G200

The Snapdragon 888+ powered Moto G200 5G is expected to land in India after its initial European release. The flagship phone is expected to come at an aggressive price in the region. The exact launch date is yet to be known but it is touted to debut this month itself.

The Motorola G200 comes with a 6.8-inch punch-hole LCD display with a 144Hz refresh rate. Its major highlight is the 108MP triple rear camera system which is accompanied by a 13MP ultra-wide-angle lens and a 2MP depth sensor.

8. Micromax Budget phone

Indian phone maker Micromax on its Twitter handle confirmed that it will launch a new smartphone soon. Netizens expect that the new phone may debut this month itself. This device could be the Micromax In Note 1 Pro which recently passed a few certifications.

The Micromax In Note 1 Pro is powered by the MediaTek MT6785 SoC a.k.a the Helio G90 chipset paired with 4GB of RAM. The phone is expected to bring major improvements over the vanilla In Note 1. It is expected to have a big battery with fast charging support. It may come with improvement cameras.

These are some of the phones coming up this month. Which device are you most excited about? Do tell us in the comments.

The OnePlus 9RT was unveiled last month in China as a successor to the OnePlus 9R and brought about a few upgraded specs. Alongside it, the OnePlus Buds Z2 TWS earbuds were also announced. Both were always eligible for global launches, and while there’s no official word from the company about that yet, we now have a date for their release in India.

91mobiles has learned from industry insider Ishan Agarwal that the OnePlus RT and OnePlus Buds Z2 will be going live in India in December. He has further revealed that the OnePlus RT will come in Nano Silver and Hacker Black colors, while the OnePlus Buds Z2 will be available in Obsidian Black and Pearl White colors.

To recall, the OnePlus 9RT was recently found to be rebranded as the OnePlus RT in India. It is most likely that the Indian variant will come with the exact set of specs as its Chinese counterpart. As such, the OnePlus RT will feature a 6.62-inch OLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate, 1300 nits peak brightness, HDR10+ certification, and a 600Hz touch sampling rate. It will be equipped with the Snapdragon 888 processor – a notable upgrade over the OnePlus 9R’s Snapdragon 870 – that has been paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.

The OnePlus Buds Z2 comes with an upgraded design that has done away with plastic tips in favor of in-ear silicone ones for a more comfy fit. The earbuds feature 11mm drivers and support AAC and SBC Bluetooth codecs. But perhaps the best bit is the all-new ANC support with claims of reducing noise by up to 40dB. Other than this, the earbuds come with IP55 splash-proof certification, support Warp Charge, and have a battery life of up to 7 hours.

The OnePlus RT is expected to be priced under Rs. 40,000, while the OnePlus Buds Z2 may cost around Rs. 5,815 (derived from Chinese pricing of CNY 499).
