OnePlus confirmed to CNET Espanol that the successor of OnePlus 6T, the OnePlus 7 (the company did not name it, but its name has not yet been confirmed), will not have 5G. The company has announced plans to launch a 5G-compatible smartphone early next year, as recently confirmed by the company's executive. OnePlus will launch at least three smartphones next year. OnePlus also recalled that the 5G-compatible phone would be part of a completely new smartphone line, which "will complement the company's smartphone portfolio." OnePlus has not announced the launch of the device at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2019 in Barcelona, but this seems to be the most obvious place to launch it, notes CNET. It should be noted that the company did not specifically indicate that it would launch the OnePlus 7 and 7T in 2019, although that will probably be the case, but it wished to be perfectly clear that the 5G device -ready will be a completely separate entity.
Context: In fact, the only new (new) news that exists here is the fact that the OnePlus 7 does not support 5G, because everything else has been confirmed more or less recently. At the end of October, Pete Lau confirmed that the 5G-compatible device would be launched in early 2019 and would not be part of the company's current lineup of smartphones. He also confirmed that the company was working with European operators to bring the device to Europe next year. Pete Lau also said that the company decided to work on a 5G compatible smartphone so soon because of its consumers, who seemed to be really interested in 5G technology, and who had been asking for the device for some time now. It should also be noted that the company had sent its very first 5G tweet quite recently, which was also officially announced by OnePlus. We know practically nothing about the future 5G compatible OnePlus smartphone, although some information is expected in the near future. Chances are it's got high-end specifications, but we can only guess because the company has not shared a single piece of information, any more than rumors and leaks.
OnePlus has been very busy in recent weeks, with the announcement of its new flagship product, the OnePlus 6T in New York, and yesterday the company introduced a new color variant for international markets, the Thunder Purple OnePlus 6T . This variant of the phone originally launched in China, and because of the very high demand of users, OnePlus had also chosen to introduce it to the international markets, although it had not planned to do it at the beginning. The OnePlus 6T Thunder Purple Handset is only available as an 8GB RAM + 128GB storage variant, while the OnePlus 6T is typically available in 6GB and 8GB RAM variants. In addition to being available in the option "Thunder Purple", it is also available in Mirror Black Iterations and Midnight Black.
The OnePlus 6T is quite similar to its predecessor, the OnePlus 6, because the two devices have a very similar construction, although they look a little different because of the small notch of the OnePlus 6T and the fact that this device does not a capacitive fingerprint scanner at the back, but an integrated fingerprint scanner. Both devices also have similar internal components, both powered by the same processor, the Snapdragon 845, while both come with the same RAM configurations. In fact, these two devices have the same camera configurations and are equipped with the same display technology, even though the size of these screens is different. The OnePlus 6T includes a 3700 mAh battery inside, which can be quickly recharged using the exclusive OnePlus fast charge, which no longer calls the term "Dash Charge" for legal reasons. Unlike OnePlus 6, the OnePlus 6T does not include LED notification light. The same goes for a 3.5mm headphone jack that is not available on the OnePlus 6T.
Impact: So at first glance, OnePlus will launch at least three smartphones in 2019, and the company's 5G phone is a complete mystery at this point, although OnePlus probably wants to differentiate it from its main devices because it makes users realize that this will be a separate entity. The 5G will not become a standard next year, far from it. The 5G technology is expected to be available in the second half of 2019, most likely in the fourth quarter of 2019, and few countries will have access to it appropriately by the end of 2019. Technology may become a standard in 2020, but it remains to be seen how fast carriers will adopt it. Nevertheless, many people were actually expecting the OnePlus 7 to be a 5G compatible smartphone, as it will be a solid option for consumers a year or two after its release. The OnePlus 7T, which will probably arrive in the fourth quarter of next year, if OnePlus ends up sticking to its release cycle, should be a 5G compatible device, since the 5G will become thing from its date of launch. The company's next 5G compatible device will form a solid 'test' phone for the company and it will be rather interesting to see it will be another high-end device, comparable to what the company usually publishes, or if OnePlus chooses to do so. a midrange phone maybe … it is likely that it will be old, it is difficult to expect that a midrange phone becomes the first 5G compatible OnePlus device . It will also be interesting to see if this device will be comparable to OnePlus 6 and 6T in terms of design, or if OnePlus will choose to adopt a completely different approach in this sense as well. Overall, the company's next 5G-compatible phone remains a complete mystery, but as its release date approaches, more and more information should appear as OnePlus starts to launch teasers, while rumors and leaks will reveal various aspects of the device too, most likely.
