OnePlus8T Leak Reveals Killer Upgrade and Release Date

OnePlus8T Leak Reveals Killer Upgrade and Release Date

According to Android Central sources, the OnePlus 8T will feature a 120Hz refresh rate display and a quad rear camera array.

Apparently, the OnePlus 8T will use the same 6.55-inch AMOLED screen as its predecessor, the OnePlus 8, and will utilize the higher refresh rate that is a feature of the OnePlus 8 Pro.

In addition to a 48MP main camera and 16MP wide-angle sensor, the OnePlus 8T is said to feature a 2MP portrait lens (likely to work with the main camera to take portrait shots) and an upgraded 5MP macro camera.

The OnePlus 8 has a 90Hz refresh rate display, which is quite decent. However, the upgrade to 120Hz should smooth things out a bit. This change will put the OnePlus 8T's display in line with other Android flagships from 2020, such as Samsung's Galaxy S20 and Galaxy Note 20 series.

The improved rear camera of the OnePlus 8 has an array consisting of a 48MP main camera, a 16MP ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 2MP macro camera, which should boost the OnePlus 8T's photography capabilities over the previous model. We found the overall performance of the OnePlus 8's three rear cameras to be a bit middling, with room for improvement.

The OnePlus 8T is also confirmed to launch with OxygenOS 11, based on the new Android 11 OS.

That's all the information we have from the Android Central report. However, we expect the OnePlus 8T to feature a boosted Snapdragon 865 Plus chip, as well as 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.

With the use of the latest flagship Snapdragon chipset, the OnePlus 8T should see a boost in processor performance and a jump in graphics power thanks to a 10% boost in the Adreno 650 GPU.

According to the report, the OnePlus 8T will be available in late September or the first week of October. This puts it in the unfortunate position of appearing at the same time as the launch of two models that have attracted a lot of interest: the iPhone 12 and the Pixel 5.
