OnePlus 11 series, just like its predecessors, has been heavily leaked as we approach closer to the official OnePlus 11 launch date. Rumours suggest that the OnePlus 11 series might feature a new eye-catching design, might go through some nomenclature changes, upgraded and industry-defying specs in usual OnePlus fashion, and might bring back fan favorite features.
Fortunately, we do have several confirmations from the Oppo-sister-company confirming some of the leaks that we have been excited for. And today, OnePlus has officially announced the OnePlus 11 launch date and the official Cloud 11 event, which might surprise you not only with the OnePlus 11 series but with much more product launches from the brand.
OnePlus 11 Launch Date
Based on the official OnePlus 11 launch date announced, the OnePlus 11 is set to be unveiled on February 7, 2023 in New Delhi, India. The company calls this event “Cloud 11”, representing significant technology and performance upgrades that the new OnePlus products will feature. More details of the launch event will follow in the next few weeks.
The official OnePlus 11 launch date poster above also teases the new rumoured eye-catching OnePlus 11 series design with a slogan: “Witness the Shape of Power”. The phone will launch with OnePlus Buds 2 Pro and more OnePlus products at the same event. The brand has also confirmed that the Hasselblad enhanced imagery will returns to the OnePlus 11 along with the fan-favorite alert slider.
It is, however, interesting to see OnePlus switch to India for their global launch, from China for the OnePlus 10 Pro – which was a phased, China-first launch that wasn’t well-received by the brand’s community.

Other rumours suggest that the OnePlus 11R will feature a curved display and an IR blaster as well. We don’t know if the OnePlus 11R will get Hasselblad enhanced cameras, but the same source suggested that it will regain the alert slider.
OnePlus 11 Price
Based on leaks and rumours, the company plans to skip the Pro variant this year and only focus on launching a standard model. The estimated OnePlus 11 price may start at $750-$850 (Rs.66,000 to Rs.75,000), based on the $799 OnePlus 10 Pro launch price. However, these are just our estimations.
