The ad, which was shown on Star Sports during the recent cricket match between India and Pakistan, features Amitabh Bachchan along with a new phone with dual (or maybe triple) cameras on the back. The camera part was partially hidden from the view.

Sadly, the front of the phone was not revealed during the ad, however, the teaser was enough to confirm that the OnePlus 6T will have a curved glass screen and curved corners. It will have vertical camera set up on the back possibly with triple cameras. Another teaser of the OnePlus 6T smartphone can be seen on the Amazon India website.

OnePlus is gearing to launch a new flagship smartphone, with the name tag OnePlus 6T, most probably in the month of October/November during this year. Recently, OnePlus 6T got a certification from EEC (Eurasian Economic Commission) with the model number A6013 which is quite similar to A6000 the model number of OnePlus 6.

As per the images surfaced on the internet reveals the key specifications and design of the upcoming OnePlus flagship smartphone.

A concept video of the upcoming smartphone has been uploaded on YouTube channel which shows that an alleged OnePlus 6T is said to feature waterdrop display notch, thin- bezels and has an impressive design in terms of appearance.

OnePlus 6T is expected to come with wireless charger, waterproof body, a notchy 19:9 aspect ratio display, and up to 3 cameras. OnePlus 6T would be the first smartphone from OnePlus that could run on faster Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 processor, however, it is just a speculation.

Since long, OnePlus and Qualcomm are partners of each other and the recent reports suggested that the successor of OnePlus 6 is likely to be equipped with 7nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 in OnePlus 6T.

Will there be a OnePlus 6T?

Vikas Agarwal General Manager of OnePlus India stated in a press release at an event in Mumbai, OnePlus would unveil 6T only when the industry something to offer new. To recall, OnePlus had launched the 3T when the Qualcomm unveiled the Snapdragon 821 SoC and 5T was introduced when smartphone manufacturers were moving to 18:9 aspect ratio display.

So there is a little confusion regarding the new 6T model, but it is assumed that the smartphone segment is moving towards new directions that OnePlus, the Shenzhen-based manufacturer has always adopted in its flagship smartphone. It seems that OnePlus 6T is said to feature an under- display fingerprint sensor. OnePlus is trying to imitate other smartphone manufacturers and most probably could offer up to three cameras as well as notchless display.

Additionally, 5G mobile connectivity for faster speed has been trending nowadays in the smartphone market which is expected to be available in the OnePlus 6T, however, we don’t expect that the 5G phones would arrive before 2019.

Reducing the notch

The notch introduction in the Oneplus 6t Launch Date made most of its users upset and made them just a follower of every other Android smartphone, but later on, the company offered notch hiding feature to reduce the redundancy.

However, this time a water drop notch may be expected as the Oppo, sibling brand of OnePlus both is in connection with the latest smartphone designs and this time again there nothing new. Oppo R17 is way ahead than any other same brand smartphones and will act as a guide for design language for the next OnePlus flagship.
