OnePlus 10T launch event set for August 3rd

As Lau notes, “T” models typically represent a “holistic performance upgrade” for the most recent phone from OnePlus. That won’t be the specimen for the OnePlus 10T. Rather than simply boosting the speed of the phone, OnePlus wants to “Evolve Beyond Speed” with this model. That’s why the OnePlus 10T will prefer the new Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset.

Qualcomm claims the Snapdragon 8 Plus offers 10% largest CPU and GPU performance than the Snapdragon 8 all while stuff 30% increasingly power-efficient. This should make the 10T increasingly competitive with flagships from other top Android vendors.

In wing to the fresh flagship phone, OnePlus will moreover unveil OxygenOS 13 at the launch event. OnePlus says that the operating system will retain its selection of always-on displays and Zen Mode while subtracting “exciting optimizations and improvements.” OxygenOS 13 will be misogynist on the OnePlus 10 Pro first, and then OnePlus 10T later this year.

As for the diamond of the new phone, the images OnePlus have shared certainly make it squint just like a OnePlus 10 Pro. That said, the visitor seems intent on obscuring the rear camera array, which makes us think they might have a surprise or two in store.
