OnePlus 5T is the newest phone from the company that has become the talk of the town. Just like the OnePlus 5 launched a few months back, this phone has also been subjected to a number of leaks but none of them has been as prominent as this one. The OnePlus 5T has been spotted listed on Oppo Mart along with its pricing and other details.
The listing has revealed the specifications that are in line with what we have seen so far by way of other leaks and rumours. The most striking change of them all is the 6-inch display that will be now be in 18:9 aspect ratio. It would be an Optic AMOLED panel with an FHD+ resolution and would come covered with 2.5D Gorilla Glass.
Another important thing to note here is that the fingerprint scanner will now be moved to the back of the phone. That is the default choice of the newer crop of high-end smartphones that come with bezels that aren’t thick enough to accommodate the fingerprint scanner. The battery capacity of the phone has also been bumped up a bit to 3450mAh.
Most of the other specifications haven’t changed much from the OnePlus 5. The 5T will also come powered by Snapdragon 835 and will have two RAM and storage variants – 6GB with 64GB and 8GB with 128GB. The dual cameras will be retained with a 20MP+16MP sensor on the back and a 16MP unit on the front.
It is still not clear if the OnePlus 5T will come running Android Oreo out-of-the-box or will still have Android Nougat. Even though the phone ends up coming with Android Nougat, it will soon get the Android Oreo update along with the OnePlus 5. Like all other OnePlus devices, the 5T will also come running OxygenOS on top of Android.
The other major thing that the listing mentions is the price of the phone. The listing on Oppo Mart is mentioned to be $549, which should be for the base 6GB variant. To help you recall, the OnePlus 5 was launched for $479 for the base variant and the higher end variant was launched for $539. OnePlus is taking it a notch up with its pricing if the one mentioned in the listing turns out to be true.
OnePlus has recently sent out invites in China for a launch on November 5 and it can be for the OnePlus 5T. This listing also mentions that the phone will start shipping by the end of November. This launch schedule is similar to that of OnePlus 3T that was also announced in November last year.
