OnePlus 6T India launch is set for today, and it will take place at the KDJW Stadium in New Delhi at 8:30pm IST. The company will be live streaming the event, and you can catch the live stream below. To recall, the OnePlus 6T was globally unveiled at an event in New York yesterday. The company however did not reveal the OnePlus 6T price in India, and that’s essentially what this event will be for, as we already know India availability – November 1 via Amazon India.
OnePlus 6T price
The OnePlus 6T price in the US was revealed at the New York launch event on Monday. It starts at $549 (roughly Rs. 40,300) in the US for the 6GB RAM + 128GB storage Mirror Black variant, with the 8GB+128GB Mirror Black and Midnight Black variant priced at $579 (roughly Rs. 42,500), and the 8GB+256GB Midnight Black variant priced at $629 (roughly Rs. 46,200). Apart from Amazon India, the OnePlus 6T will go on sale in India via Reliance Digital outlets in addition to OnePlus’ own offline stores, while pop-up events will also be held on November 2. It will be available in Midnight Black and Mirror Black colour variants.
OnePlus 6T specifications
The OnePlus 6T offers several additions over the OnePlus 6 model it succeeds, such as an in-display fingerprint scanner, a larger battery, a larger display, a smaller notch, improved low-light photography, Android 9.0 Pie out-of-the-box, a better endowed base model, and Smart Boost optimisation. There is a prominent removal as well – the OnePlus 6T foregoes the headphone jack, with users having to rely on the USB Type-C port or Bluetooth for their audio pairing needs.
Like the OnePlus 6, the OnePlus 6T retains a single bottom firing speaker. It also features an all-glass build, like the OnePlus 6, with Corning Gorilla Glass 6 protection. The in-display fingerprint sensor is claimed to unlock the smartphone in 0.34 seconds, and works with the OnePlus screen protector – the company doesn’t guarantee it will work a third-party protector. The fingerprint recognition is also self-learning, said to make it faster over time when identifying the same fingerprints.
The OnePlus 6T’s Smart Boot feature that is said to improve app cold start speeds by 5 to 20 percent by caching frequently used apps – it currently will only work with gaming apps, with additional compatibility planned for the future.

OnePlus is also touting improved low-light photography with a feature called Nightscene. It produces brighter images in low-light, with reduced noise, using a new HDR algorithm across a 2-second exposure, and splicing together the resultant up to 10 multi-frame shots together. It will be made available to the OnePlus 6, which has an identical camera setup, later this week.
As before, users will be able to hide the notch on the OnePlus 6T, with a UI setting. The Gaming Mode introduced in previous versions of OxygenOS also makes its way to the smartphone. The company says that a feature that lets users activate Google Assistant by long pressing the power button will soon make its way to the handset. Apart from the headphone jack, another major removal from the OnePlus 6 on the OnePlus 6T is the missing LED notification light – the company says the ‘lift-up display’ will allow users to conveniently read notifications from the lock screen, negating the need for an LED light.
