The much awaited and talked about OnePlus 6T will be unveiled at an event in New York City today. The smartphone is set to sport an in-display fingerprint sensor and a water-drop shaped notch, use a Type-C port in place of 3.5mm headphone jack, and come with a bigger 3,700mAh battery. While a lot is set to change, according to the complete set of specifications of OnePlus 6T leaked by tipster Ishan Agarwal last week on Twitter, there are some specifications of the upcoming smartphone that will remain the same as OnePlus 6. Here, we list down seven such specifications of OnePlus 6T:
Display type
While the size and aspect ratios of the displays of OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 6T reportedly vary, OnePlus 6T is expected to come with the same Optic AMOLED display as OnePlus 6. Instead of OnePlus 6’s 6.28-inch screen, OnePlus 6T is said to have a bigger 6.4-inch display panel.
Processor
Both OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 6T run on the most powerful processor available — Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC coupled with Adreno 630.
RAM
OnePlus 6 was launched in 6GB and 8GB RAM options and was available in three storage variants — 64GB, 128GB and 256GB. As of now, we only know of the 8GB RAM model of OnePlus 6T, that comes with 128GB storage onboard. While some reports have suggested that OnePlus 6T’s base variant comes with 8GB RAM, we don’t think that is likely. Had OnePlus been planning a higher RAM version for the smartphone, we would have seen some reports around it. Having said that, we are expecting to see other RAM/storage configurations at the launch.
Dual rear cameras
OnePlus 6T sports a dual rear camera setup with a 16MP primary sensor and a 20MP secondary sensor. Both the sensors at the back come with f1.7 aperture. Although currently we don’t know the kind of sensors that have been used, the specifications that have been reported are the same as what we saw on OnePlus 6.
Selfie camera
The front facing snapper of the upcoming smartphone will reportedly come with a 20MP senor with f1.7 aperture. Like the dual rear cameras, the specifications are the same as OnePlus 6, but we will have to wait for a few more hours to know about the kind of sensors that are used.
Operating system
When launched, OnePlus 6 came with Android 8.1 Oreo skinned with OxygenOS 5.1. However, it recently got upgraded to Android 9.0 Pie. Speaking of OnePlus 6T, it is expected to run Android 9.0 Pie too. While an earlier listing on Otto claimed the presence of Android 8.1 Oreo, we think that is highly unlikely.
IP Rating
To our disappointment, OnePlus 6T will not come with an IP rating, which means that it will not be dust or water resistant. However, we do expect it to be at least splash proof like its predecessor.
