OnePlus 6T to launch soon: Here's what we know so far

Since the OnePlus 3T, the company has started to launch two smartphones every year. So just like the last year, we are going to see a T variant of the recently launched OnePlus 6. Although the company has not yet started to speak openly about the upcoming device, a recent report claims that a new smartphone has been listed which is being codenamed as ‘OnePlus A6013’.

The OnePlus A6013 is most probably the OnePlus 6T considering that OnePlus 6 and 5T were codenamed A6000 and A5010 respectively. The upcoming smartphone has already received the EEC (Eurasian Economic Commission) certification. However, the listing does not reveal much about the OnePlus 6T.

In terms of specifications, the OnePlus 6T will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC. It is expected to come with up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. However, as Samsung recently launched the Galaxy Note 9 with 512GB, OnePlus might bring a 512GB variant as well. Further, the firm will stick to a Super AMOLED display for the upcoming smartphone. The OnePlus 6T is most likely to run Android Pie out of the box.

As for the improvements over the OnePlus 6, the company might finally bring IP68 or IP67 rating for the smartphone which will make it water resistant. Further, the company might bring stereo speakers or a QHD+ display instead of the FHD+ found on the previous generations. The upcoming smartphone is also expected to come with an improved charging technology based on Oppo's Super VOOC charging.

According to another report, the OnePlus 6T will go on sale via T-Mobile in the U.S. which will drastically improve the sales of OnePlus devices in the US as people prefer to buy phones via carriers. As for the pricing, the OnePlus 6T is expected to come at a starting price of USD 550 (roughly Rs. 38,500). The launch of the smartphone is expected to take place in November 2018.
