OnePlus 6T is expected to debut on Oct. 17. The
handset is expected to sport a display design that is very similar to the OPPO
R17. The rear design of the OnePlus 6T will be almost same as the OnePlus 6,
but it won’t be featuring a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner. The reason behind
it is that the Chinese manufacturer has already confirmed that the OnePlus 6T
will be equipped with an in-display fingerprint scanner. Today, popular tipster
@OnLeaks has shared 360-degree renders of the OnePlus 6T in collaboration with
an Indian publication to reveal its design and key details.
The OnePlus 6T renders reveal that it will come
equipped with a waterdrop notch display like the OPPO R17 and OPPO F9. Hence,
the smartphone is expected to boast a higher screen space than the OnePlus 6.
The rear side of the phone features a vertically aligned dual camera system on
the upper half followed by the company’s logo.
Apart from axing the regular fingerprint scanner
from the rear of the OnePlus 6T, the Chinese firm has also removed the 3.5mm
headphone jack and OnePlus fans are not very happy about it. The handset
measures 157.5 x 75.7 x 8.2 and its thickness increases to 8.6mm at the camera
bump. The dimensions of the OPPO R17 are 157.5 x 74.9 x 7.5mm which is quite
similar to that of OnePlus 6T. Hence, the upcoming OnePlus flagship phone is
likely to feature a 6.4-inch AMOLED screen like OnePlus 6.
Rumors have it that the 6.5-inch Optic AMOLED screen
of the OnePlus 6T will carry support for Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2340 and
an aspect ratio of 19.5:9. It is also rumored to feature Gorilla Glass 6 screen
protection.
The Snapdragon 845 chipset is expected to power the
OnePlus 6T. It may arrive in three models such as 64 GB storage + 6 GB RAM, 128
GB storage + 8 GB RAM and 256 GB storage + 8 GB RAM. For photography, it may
come equipped with 16-megapixel + 20-megapixel dual camera setup like the
OnePlus 6. It may also borrow the 20-megapixel selfie snapper from OP6. The
OnePlus 6T may feature a slightly larger battery than the OP6. It is likely to
arrive with OxygenOS 9 flavored Android 9 Pie OS.
