The OnePlus 6T design

Updated 02. October 2018

New images show a narrower cut and a glossy finish

6.41-inch screen, fingerprint sensor under the glbad and round notch shaped water drop: this is the new OnePlus 6T. At least as far as the most recent information of the Leakers Roland Quandt von WinFuture go. The portal contains official press photos showing OnePlus' new flagship product in full glory. The large screen, clearly visible, shows only a circular notch at the top, in which is the selfie camera. Otherwise, the shiny device has a nearly borderless design. Only the bottom of the black bar is slightly thicker. Neither there nor at the back shows a fingerprint sensor. It is almost certain that the OnePlus 6T will be equipped with a fingerprint sensor under the screen glbad for the first time.

The back of the WinFuture The leaked images show a brilliant black finish, reminiscent of the unique "piano lacquer" (color: black diamond) of the iPhone 7. This color choice of the OnePlus 6T is apparently called "Mirror Black ", according to the technical blog. The frosted version of OnePlus 6T (visible in the picture above) should bear the name "Midnight Black". In general, however, the differences from the previous model are rather moderate. However, OnePlus now seems to be saying goodbye to the headphone jack, which should provide more space for a bigger battery. The Chinese smartphone manufacturer will officially introduce the new OnePlus 6T in mid-October.

Name confirmed, but no triple camera

The closer the idea of ​​a smartphone gets closer, the more the number of emerging rumors beats increases rapidly. This is especially true for highly anticipated models such as the Oneplus 6T, whose name – if you take it exactly – has not been confirmed yet. It's different now because Winfuture was leaked from allegedly reliable source photos and a logo that finally ensures the clarity of the name: Oneplus 6T.

However, what emerges from the above images is far more interesting than the name that we have suspected from the beginning. So, they definitely show a double instead of a triple camera – contrary to the hope of the fans. The size of the lenses and probably also the sensors of the camera module seem identical to the components of the previous model, Oneplus 6.

OnePlus 6T Leak shows a drawing sketch

What do we already know about OnePlus 6T? Okay, nothing. At least not yet. Because a leak now published on the net seems to bring some light in the rumor. The OnePlus 6T will be the successor of OnePlus 6, released a few months ago, making any radical change difficult. But if this goes after the images that were published on the Weibo social network in China, OnePlus still seems to have proposed something.

Because the smartphone packaging appeared there and shows the front design inside the lid. So, you can now see a small, teardrop notch at the top of the screen. The OnePlus 6 has no guts yet, so it's nice to see that the manufacturer of his successor tries to keep it as discreet as possible.

Fingerprint sensor on the OnePlus 6T screen

The image of the lid reveals even more. Apparently, the OnePlus 6T must receive a fingerprint reader under the display. It remains to be seen if the sensor at the back falls then. Many Chinese manufacturers such as Xiaomi, ZTE or Oppo already have matching devices on the market. It was only a matter of time until OnePlus settled here. All the more so that Opppo belongs to the same big parent company, which also depends on OnePlus: BBK-Electronics.

Other largely unknown material

In the dark, however, we continue to work on the equipment. However, this will probably be very much based on its predecessor. So you can count on the OnePlus 6T with a Snapdragon 845, 8 GB of RAM and at least 128 GB of internal memory. The display resolution should again be in Full HD +. And of course, a double camera will be used at the back.

Oxygen OS: Two new features known

how SlashGear Now, OnePlus has unveiled some additional features for the OnePlus 6T. Oxygen OS is the name of the custom Android operating system that uses OnePlus in its smartphones. In the version for OnePlus 6T, Oxygen OS will be based on Android 9.0 Pie, as already officially confirmed the president of the company, Pete Lau.

However, compared to other Chinese companies, such as Huawei, changes to the base system are far from strong. Oxygen OS gets a lot closer to Android Stock, like Huawei's EMUI. However, the new version will have additional features that are not available for Android 9.0 Pie.

A developer has presented two new features on the official forum of the company. If you hold down the standby button for about half a second on the OnePlus 6T, you call the Google Assistant. So no additional buttons are needed, as Samsung has practiced on its Galaxy models with Bixby.

Fast switching between two applications is also performed via a swipe gesture. If you wipe quickly to the right, at the bottom of the screen, you will enter the previously opened application. Since there are no typical navigation buttons for fast double-bottom pressure, OnePlus solves this problem in a unique way.

In an interview with CNET However, the Lau also confirmed that this feature would help increase the price of OnePlus 6T compared to OnePlus 6. It is "no, not cheap technology". Official prices are not yet available, but an increase of about 21 dollars is expected.

OnePlus 6T: screen capture confirms integrated scanner
