The teasers, and what we can gather from them
On 29 September, OnePlus finally put out a teaser video of the phone over Twitter. However, the teaser did not mention any specifications, or how the phone looks like. The video only revealed a hexagonal „T“ logo of the upcoming model.

The only text in the video is \u201cUnlock the future,\u201d and if one reads between the lines then they can probably guess that OnePlus is hinting towards the in-display fingerprint sensor, but then that feature has already been confirmed by the company.

Besides these, the phone was also revealed in an advertisement starring Amitabh Bachchan, who is the Indian brand ambassador of OnePlus. The teaser had then raised some speculation around the placement of Mr. Bachchan’s finger on the backside of the phone, and it is expected to be the third camera on the rear.

Later, the smartphone maker also put out a teaser giving the message of having „more power“. The teaser hints at a larger battery life. The most recent teaser, however, reveals, an edge-to-edge display, and a faint look at the in-display fingerprint sensor.

When is the launch?
The phone will apparently launch on 17 October in India according to a leaked invite. The invite was found on a post on Weibo. It showed a cut out of the upcoming OnePlus 6T, with \u201cUnlock the Speed\u201d written on it, and that the event would take place in India, the second largest smartphone market after China.
Since the leak comes from unofficial sources, there is no way we can confirm this information.
OnePlus first put up a teaser for the phone\u2019s launch, on Amazon, revealing clearly that it will be an Amazon exclusive.

Specifications
Coming to the specifications, the phone is expected to be powered the Qualcomm\u2019s Snapdragon 845 as its predecessor though there are reports which suggest that OnePlus could take a step down to a Snapdragon 710 chipset. Now, the Oppo R17 Pro, on which the OnePlus 6T is expected to be based did feature the Snapdragon 710 though it is unlikely that the brand will take a step down.
In terms of storage, the phone is might feature 8 GB RAM along with 256 GB. The phone will also feature a 6.14-inch Full HD Plus display. Coming to the optics, the OnePlus 6T may come with a triple camera setup. It was listed on a shopping website called GizTop which showed a OnePlus 6T model with a triple camera setup \u201420 MP+12 MP and a 3D TOF depth sensor.
As far as the price of the device is concerned, it has been speculated that OnePlus 6T will be priced slightly steeper as compared to what we have been seeing on the previous two T-series devices till now. The smartphone\u2019s price might go up to $550 (about Rs 39,000), which is a $20 increase from the OnePlus 6\u2019s price tag.<\/p>\n
