OnePlus 7T Lineup
Alongside the OnePlus TV, we will see the Chinese phone maker announce new iterative upgrades for its OnePlus 7 lineup. This means the OnePlus 7T and 7T Pro will see the light on September 26, possibly with 90Hz displays, Snapdragon 855 Plus SoC, and triple cameras in tow.
If the leaks are to be trusted, well, both the OnePlus 7T and 7T Pro will retain their form factor. This means we will still see a waterdrop notch on the more affordable OnePlus 7T, and the pop-up camera/ curved display on the 7T Pro. However, the former will now be outfitted with a 90Hz refresh rate display (confirmed by CEO Pete Lau) to bring it in line with its elder sibling.
OnePlus 7T won’t see any major change on the camera front, but the 7T will upgrade to a circular camera bump with three cameras. It is expected to include a 48MP+16MP+12MP camera setup, with a 16MP selfie camera, as per the leaks.
Both the OnePlus 7T and 7T Pro are expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 855 SoC, coupled with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage. The former will house a 3,800mAh battery but the latter could come equipped with a 4,000mAh battery as its predecessor. So, if you are planning to get a OnePlus 7, we suggest you wait for a couple more weeks as the OnePlus 7T sounds quite exciting.
