    OnePlus 7 Leaks: What We Know So Far

    OnePlus is known to release a new phone every year, six months after their ‘T’ series release. So the new OnePlus 7 phone is due this March or April and we are stoked! Over the past few months there has been several leaks and speculations and in this article we list what we know about the much rumoured phone so far.   

    No Notch

    One of the recurring themes of the leaks so far have been the absence of a notch in the OnePlus 7. The OnePlus 6 featured a full fledged notch while just six months later, the notch was turned into a water-drop one on the 6T. If this trend continues, the notch could very well be removed on the OnePlus 7.

    Moreover, BBK Electronics owned Oppo and Vivo have both tried to remove the notch completely by using ingenious ways like sliding camera, sliding back panel etc. If trends are anything to go by, OnePlus has been known to borrow technology that has been well received by the market. A prime example is the in- display fingerprint sensor which first appeared on a Vivo phone and then was featured on the OnePlus 6T. The absence of the notch will mean the phone will either have a retractable camera or a sliding back. 

    Optional 5G 

    The era of 5G is upon us and OnePlus being one of the industry leaders, won’t be far behind. The company has confirmed that a 5G model of the phone will be made available to the European market at a premium. OnePlus’ CEO also stated that the 5G model will be $200-300 more than the 4G one. 

    More Than Two Rear Cameras

    OnePlus 5 was the first phone in the company’s stable to feature dual rear cameras. With most high end smartphones like the Huawei Mate Pro being sold with three rear cameras, it won’t be a surprise if OnePlus goes the same route. This rumour also comes from our next point.

    Round Camera Bump

    The rumour of the OnePlus 7 with more than two rear cameras comes from an image leak where OnePlus officials are seen using a phone with a round camera bump that looks quite big for two cameras. While it isn’t clear if the leaked photo is just a prototype phone or the upcoming OnePlus 7, it will be interesting to see how the company implements the three camera setup and what lenses they choose to put in it.

    Hardware Speculations

    There are several specification leaks as well and some guesses based on past OnePlus device features about the hardware of the upcoming OnePlus 7. The phone will feature a Snapdragon 855 processor which is the latest flagship processor from Qualcomm. The OnePlus 6T has 6GB and 8GB RAM options with 128GB and 256GB  but we expect more from the OnePlus 7. The OnePlus 7 will probably have 8GB and 10 GB RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage. The phone will also feature a larger and more efficient battery compared to the 3700 mAh battery seen on the OnePlus 6T.

  • OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition Launched In India

    OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition Launched In India

    The OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition smartphone was recently launched in the UK. Now the company has also announced it for the Indian market. It is a limited edition variant of the OnePlus 6T which the company has developed in collaboration with British supercar manufacturer, McLaren. Although the new variant borrows a lot of specifications from the regular variant, the new features make it stand out. The OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition not only has a beautiful rear design it also gets Warp Charge 30 and 10 GB of RAM. It is the first global smartphone to offer this high capacity of RAM.

    Design:

    The OnePlus 6T Mclaren Edition, like its regular variant, has a high screen-to-body ratio with a waterdrop notch at the front. The right side of the device makes room for the power button and the sound profile slider while the left side houses the volume rockers. Over at bottom, the device has a USB Type-C port, the loudspeaker grille, and the microphone grille. The rear of the device gets a newly designed back panel which houses the dual camera setup with LED flash. The glass panel has a carbon fiber like design and the signature McLaren Orange Papaya coloured accent runs along its bottom and sides.

    Display:

    The OnePlus 6T Mclaren Edition has a 6.41-inch Optic AMOLED display with a small waterdrop notch. The display panel has a Full HD resolution of 2340 x 1080 px and a pixel density of 402 ppi. The display has a screen to body ratio of 85.6% and an aspect ratio of 19.5:9. Additionally, the OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition’s display has Corning Gorilla Glass 6 to protect it against scratches and accidental drops.

    Processor:

    The McLaren Edition OnePlus 6T runs on the 10 nm, Snapdragon 845 SoC. The Snapdragon 845 consists of an Octa-Core CPU and Adreno 630 GPU. The CPU consists four Kryo 385 Gold cores and four 385 Silver Cores. For high performance, the Kryo 385 Gold cores have a clock frequency of 2.8 GHz and for better battery backup the Kryo 385 Silver cores have a clock frequency of 1.7 GHz.

    Memory & Storage:

    The new limited McLaren Edition variant of the OnePlus 6T gets 10 GB of LPDDR4X RAM. In terms of internal storage, the device has 256 GB of UFS 2.1 storage. Both, LPDDR4X RAM andUFS 2.1 contribute in making the smartphone extremely fast. Like other OnePlus smartphones, it does not support memory expandability.

    Camera:

    The OnePlus 6T Mclaren Edition has a 16 MP (Sony IMX 371), f 2.0 aperture equipped front-facing camera sensor which is housed in the notch. Over at the rear, the device gets dual 16 MP (Sony IMX 519) + 20 MP (Sony IMX 376K) camera sensors. Both the 16 MP and the 20 MP sensor are equipped with a f/1.7 aperture. Most notably, the 16 MP camera has a 1.22-micron size pixel which allows for better light absorption. Therefore, the device can capture well-lit pictures even in low light conditions. The smartphone can also capture 2160p videos at 60fps from the rear cameras and 1080p videos at 30 fps from the front camera.

    Battery:

    Like the regular variant, the McLaren Edition OnePlus 6T packs a 3,700 mAh Lithium-Ion battery. However, the new device now supports Warp Charge which charges the device with 30 watts of power. In comparison, the dash charge on the regular variant charges the handset at only 20 watts. Therefore this is a 50% boost from the old technology. According to OnePlus, the limited edition variant can be charged up to 50% in under 20 minutes.

    To support this rapid charge, both the phone and the charger now have an integrated circuit chip. OnePlus also ships the device with a Papaya Orange coloured braided cable which is essential to support the Warp charge. Furthermore, the McLaren Edition variant does not thermal throttle. It means that the device will continue to charge at a rapid pace even if the device gets hot or is being used to run CPU intensive tasks.

    Connectivity & Other Features:

    The OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition variant, like the regular variant, also supports dual 4G VoLTE, dual-band 802.11 Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0 Low Energy, NFC, and GPS. The device also has a host of sensors which include an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a proximity sensor, and a compass. For securely and safely unlocking the handset, the device gets an in-display fingerprint sensor. Additionally, the device also supports Face Unlock Technology.

    The OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition smartphone with 10 GB of RAM and 256 GB of ROM is priced in India at Rs 50,999. It will be available via both online and offline channels. The phone will be available from tomorrow at Delhi’s newly launched store and will be available on other channels from 15th December.

  • OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition Will Have 10 GB Of RAM

    OnePlus 6T McLaren Edition Will Have 10 GB Of RAM

    Compared to big players like Apple and Samsung, OnePlus is a fairly new company. But due to excellent features and aggressive pricing, their smartphones have already made a mark in the industry. Late last month the company announced their OnePlus 6T smartphone which is the successor to the remarkable OnePlus 6. Earlier this month the company launched a limited Thunder Purple variant of the same. To turn even more heads, the company has recently teased yet another upcoming limited edition variant of the OnePlus 6T. This time the company has collaborated with the British supercar maker McLaren. A report claims that the upcoming limited variant will have 10 GB of RAM and 256 GB of ROM.

    McLaren Meets OnePlus: What To Expect?

    Woking based McLaren is one of the first car company that springs to mind when one thinks about supercars. The company has won a large number of racing titles and is a big name in the global car scene. The upcoming McLaren F1 Edition OnePlus 6T device gets the tagline ‘Salute To Speed’ which clearly indicates that the company is cooking something speedy. The tip from mysmartprice about 10 GB of RAM could actually turn out true.

    Till date, Xioami’s is the only company that offers a device with 10 GB of RAM which is the Mi Mix 3. However, that smartphone is only available in China currently. To bring this high spec feature to a wider audience, OnePlus can actually become the first company to offer 10 GB RAM smartphone to the global market.

    Release Date & Price

    To summarise, these rumors will only be cleared up as the company officially announces the McLaren F1 Edition OnePlus 6T. The device is first set to launch in Woking, England (McLaren Headquarters) on the 11th of December which will be followed by its India launch on December 12. The price of the McLaren F1 Edition OnePlus 6T is currently available. But it is expected to be a sub 50K smartphone in India.

     

  • OnePlus May Launch A Phone In Partnership With McLaren

    OnePlus May Launch A Phone In Partnership With McLaren

    Most Chinese manufacturers these days have been known to team up with big brands such as Marvel, Lamborghini, Porsche and others. Joining the bandwagon, OnePlus might soon surprise us with a McLaren version of one of their phones. Oppo recently released the Find X Lamborghini edition and OnePlus has released Marvel’s Avengers edition phones in the past as well. Via tweets, both OnePlus and McLaren have announced a partnership.

    OnePlus has also shared a video and written “Experience the #SalutetoSpeed” which can only mean a McLaren edition of their OnePlus 6T. Or atleast that is what the tech industry believes as of now. The announcement will be made on December 11, 2018.

    This partnership is in line with OnePlus’ motto of ‘Unlock The Speed’ for their OnePlus 6T phones. This further cements the idea that the company will be bringing in a new edition with cosmetic changes from McLaren. Some are also speculating higher RAM and better performances from the McLaren version but it is too early to tell. McLaren is known to launch new cars with orange liveries. We suspect the new phone may have an orange tinge or an orange back.

It has an array of new features including a bigger display, water-drop notch, in-display fingerprint sensor and more. However, at the time of the launch, the device was available in only two colours; midnight black and mirror black. But, keeping in mind the trend that OnePlus follows, we were sure that more colour options were on the way.

It is one of the best in-display fingerprint sensors out there right now. What’s more, the fingerprint sensor gets more accustomed to your fingerprint every time you use it. This results in faster unlock speeds every time.

    OnePlus To Launch A 5G Phone In 2019

    5G, the big leap for smartphones is approaching fast and the companies are working hard to reap the early bird advantage. Chinese tech giant Xiaomi has already launched their 5G compatible Mi Mix 3. Moreover, OnePlus has already announced they will launch a 5G smartphone in the year 2019. Recently, the company revealed to Cnet Spain that the 5G OnePlus will not be the OnePlus 7. In fact, the upcoming smartphone will be part of a completely different series.

    The Successor To The OnePlus 6T?

    OnePlus refreshes their flagship smartphones twice a year hence, the OnePlus 7 will launch before Q2 of 2019 ends. Most notably, OnePlus 7, the next flagship will not have 5G support. The company revealed that the OnePlus 7 will remain their flagship phone. As the new 5G technology will not only bump the price of the phone, but it will also have limited carriers initially. So, the company predicts to not sell as many units of the same as the former.

    The company officials explained that the 5G smartphone which is due to launch in early 2019 will be a part of a different lineup that will complement the flagship series. The smartphone is set to launch in early 2019, we feel that the company might announce it during the MWC (Mobile World Congress) 2019 which will be held in Barcelona starting 25th February.

  • OnePlus 6T Thunder Purple Edition Shown Off In Official Renders

    OnePlus 6T Thunder Purple Edition Shown Off In Official Renders

    Earlier this week, a listing had given us an idea about the existence of a OnePLus 6T Thunder Purple variant. The listing now seems legit as official press images of the same have now been leaked. The OnePlus 6T Thunder Purple sure does look great. It also hints at the fact that OnePlus may have some more variants of their latest flagship in store for us.

    This trend was started way back with the OnePlus 5T. The 5T saw a limited edition variant launching sometime after the smartphone itself was launched. The OnePlus 6 also carried forward this trend by releasing two new colours, Silk White and Red, followed by an Avengers Limited Edition device. Keeping this in mind, it is safe to say that we might see the launch of many other colours and maybe even limited editions of the OnePlus 6T.

    Last month, a listing on a German website had given us a glance at an ‘Ultimate Edition’ OnePlus 6T. But it was taken down soon after. The listing detailed just a 100 pieces of this truly limited device. However, OnePlus is yet to make a comment on any new editions of the OnePlus 6T which we might see in the future.

    OnePlus 6T

    The OnePlus 6T is the latest flagship by OnePlus. The phone sports a 6.41 inch Super AMOLED display with a water drop notch. It has a 2340 x 1080 px resolution and a 402 ppi density. The most striking feature is its in-display fingerprint sensor. The OnePlus 6T is power a 3,700 mAh battery which supports Dash Charging. Running on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC, it runs Oxygen OS based on Android 9 Pie, out of the box. The device has 6 GB and 8 GB RAM options along with 128 GB and 256 GB storage options. The display has Corning Gorilla Glass Protection and it is better water sealed due to the absence of a headphone jack. It has a 16 MP + 20 MP dual rear camera setup along with a 16 MP front camera.

    The OnePlus 6T is the latest in the line of ‘flagship killers’ from OnePlus. The device sports a company-first, in-display fingerprint sensor, a water drop notch, bigger screen and battery and improved camera and performance. What the phone did lack at its launch, was a bit of colour. While the OnePlus 6T has a lot of colours on its AMOLED display, the device in itself is only available in Midnight Black and Mirror Black variants. This might change as a listing of the device showed an option that is sure to make you excited; the OnePlus 6T Thunder Purple.

    With such an exciting name, we just hope that the device looks as great as it sounds.

    OnePlus 6T Receives Oxygen OS 9.0.4 Update

    The OnePlus 6T was launched in India on October 30th and the device is already getting updates. We are all familiar with OnePlus’s Oxygen OS which provides an almost stock Android experience, almost mirroring that of the Google Pixel. Additionally, the OnePlus 6 is also the one of the first devices to receive Android 9 Pie, second only to the Google Pixel. Therefore, it is no surprise that the Oneplus 6T has already started receiving updates.

    The Oxygen OS 9.0.4 update is rolling out to all the OnePlus 6T devices and brings in changes in the Nightscape feature and some security updates. Since the camera hardware used in the 6T is the same as the OnePlus 6, the company had to look for ways to make sure that the performance improves. The Nightscape feature on the OnePlus 6T claims to improve the lowlight performance of the camera. As of now, Nightscape does offer visible improvements, but not something that is a game-changer. The slight upgrades brought by this update might change that. It also added studio lighting to enhance pictures taken by the phone.

    The update also includes power consumption optimisations, bug fixes and improvements to the Screen Unlock feature. The update also mentions brand new navigation gestures, but we are not sure as to what that means as the OnePlus 6T had new navigation gestures out of the box.

The display has Corning Gorilla Glass 6 which offers a high degree of protection, but OnePlus has pre-applied a screen protector to the device to ensure more safety.

The 6T records 4K 2160p video at 30 or 60fps. There are improvements in the main camera which does boost its performance.
