OnePlus 3T Launch Teaser Hints at Flagship's Design and Name

The leaks for the OnePlus 3T have been around for a long time by now and has even made an appearance at benchmark websites - ahead of its anticipated launch on Tuesday. Interestingly, all the rumors until now have suggested that the smartphone will bear the same design as current flagship by the company. Now, it seems like the company has confirmed this long-standing rumor with a teaser about the launch of its upcoming smartphone.

The teaser posted by OnePlus on Chinese website Weibo shows a OnePlus 3 smartphone placed in front of a mirror that reflects an image with the character 'T' displayed on its screen. This teaser seemingly confirms that the smartphone will be similar to OnePlus 3 in terms of design but will carry the character 'T' in its name. Beneath this image, the company has given a tagline that says "To be a better me."

OnePlus has already confirmed earlier this month, through its Twitter account, that its upcoming device will pack Snapdragon 821 processor and will be launched on November 15. Earlier leaks have suggested that the OnePlus 3T will come with Sony's latest IMX398 sensor onboard. It is further expected to sport an Optic AMOLED display and run on Android 7.0 Nougat-based OxygenOS. It is expected to house a large 3300mAh battery.

The Snapdragon 821 chipset on the smartphone will be paired with 6GB of RAM and the smartphone is tipped to come in storage options of 32GB and 64GB. The OnePlus 3T is expected to be priced at $479 (roughly Rs. 32,100) - $80 more than the OnePlus 3, which is priced at Rs. 27,999 in India.

As all these leaked specifications have not been confirmed by the company, so we'll have to wait till the official announcement by the company. However, as the launch is scheduled to be on Tuesday, we will not have to wait long for the confirmation.

OnePlus 3T With 3300mAh Battery Tipped to Launch on November 14

The OnePlus 3T, the rumored upgraded variant of OnePlus 3, has been receiving leaks for past few months. The leaks about the phone have suggested that it will not be a complete revamp but a rather more capable version of OnePlus 3. Even though the smartphone was earlier expected to be launched in December, reports now suggest that it will be launched on November 14.

The leak comes from a post on Chinese website Weibo that says that OnePlus 3T will be launched on November 14 in London and will come equipped with Snapdragon 821 processor coupled with 6GB of RAM. The post further suggests that the smartphone will be made available in two storage variants of 64GB and 128GB and will also come in a Black colour variant. The battery is said to have been upgraded to a 3300mAh version, larger than the 3000mAh offering by the OnePlus 3.

The smartphone is expected to sport a 5.5-inch screen similar to the OnePlus 3 with a screen resolution of 1080x1920 pixels. OnePlus 3T is tipped to feature the same design as the current flagship of the company and is similarly expected to come with a USB Type-C port. OnePlus 3T will allegedly feature Sony's new IMX398 rear sensor and that it will run on Android 7.0 Nougat.

OnePlus 3T is expected to come with an Optic AMOLED display, as CEO Carl Pei earlier confirmed that OnePlus will continue to use the same display on its devices in the anticipated future. The support for Dash Charge is likely to be tagged along with the upgraded variant of OnePlus 3 as well.

As per earlier rumors, the OnePlus 3T will be priced at $480 (roughly Rs. 32,000). Like every other rumor, we will have to wait for an actual announcement by the company for any confirmation.

OnePlus 3T: Release Date, Price, Specifications; All the Rumors so far!

OnePlus is rumored to launch an upgraded OnePlus 3 variant sometime in December this year. The upgraded variant will sport a new processor and run on the latest version of Android. Now, a fresh leak reveals the expected price of the smartphone as well. Expected to be called the OnePlus 3T, the smartphone has been circulating in the rumor mill, hinting at an expected unveil. OnePlus was recently also reported to have halted production of the OnePlus 3 to focus its efforts on the new variant powered by the upgraded Snapdragon 821 SoC.

The OnePlus 3, on its own, has some great specifications and performs impressively (Review here), and the OnePlus 3T is likely to take that up a notch further. We take a look at all that we know about the OnePlus 3T variant so far, including the expected launch date of the smartphone.

Release Date

The OnePlus 3T is expected to launch in December this year, probably sometime around Christmas. Because of this, the OnePlus 4 launch next year is also rumored to be delayed a bit. While a designer reportedly associated with the firm let out that the upgrade will be called OnePlus 3T, the names OnePlus 3s and OnePlus 3 Plus have also been floating around the Web.

Specifications

As the OnePlus 3T is reportedly an upgrade to the already amazing OnePlus 3, so we don't expect a major specification change. So far, it is rumored to be powered by a Snapdragon 821 processor just like the new Google Pixel and Google Pixel XL devices and will run on the latest Android 7.0 Nougat (which will obviously be based on Oxygen OS). 

It will continue to sport an Optic AMOLED display, as CEO Carl Pei recently confirmed that OnePlus will continue to use the same display in the anticipated future. The design of the OnePlus 3T is also expected to be similar to the flagship, with support for Dash Charge embedded as well.

Price

There isn't any price leak associated with the new variant, but knowing the company's business strategy, it will be offering the phone at a reasonable price point. According to noted tipster Evan Blass, the OnePlus 3T will be priced $80 (roughly Rs. 5,400) more than the current OnePlus 3.

The tipster claims that the upgraded smartphone will be priced at $479 (roughly Rs. 32,100). Even with this price bump, the smartphone is still reasonable when compared to the other flagships in the market. Both Apple and Google flagships are priced way higher than the OnePlus 3 and the rumored OnePlus 3T.

While on paper, this isn't much of an upgrade, but OnePlus could announce more during the big unveil, making Christmas merrier. Till then, it is advised you take all speculations with a pinch of salt.
