OnePlus 6T launch soon: Know confirmed features, expected specs and price

Chinese smartphone manufacturer OnePlus is gearing up to launch the OnePlus 6T soon. Like previous launches, the key changes that would be part of the upgrade from the current-generation flagship have already been confirmed by the company. These changes include the use of an in-display fingerprint sensor and the removal of the 3.5mm audio jack. Apart from these changes, several other enhancements are expected from the upcoming smartphone, such as a new screen format, enhanced camera module, bigger battery, etc. Though there has been no official confirmation on these features, the company’s past record hints that these features would make way in the OnePlus 6T.

OnePlus 6T confirmed upgrades
Speaking of upgrades, the OnePlus 6T is confirmed to get an in-display fingerprint sensor technology in which the fingerprint sensor is placed beneath the screen, allowing the phone to sport a true unibody design. The in-display fingerprint sensor technology allows a part of the screen to double up as a biometric recognition module for identifying fingerprints to unlock the phone. OnePlus’ sister company, Vivo, has been offering this technology in some of its premium models, such as the Vivo X21, Vivo Nex and the Vivo V11 Pro.

OnePlus 6T teaser goes live on Amazon, TV ad with Amitabh Bachchan out too

Chinese smartphone manufacturer OnePlus is gearing up to launch the OnePlus 6T soon. The phone teaser is now live on e-commerce platform Amazon, and a television commercial featuring Bollywood celebrity Amitabh Bachchan is out too. This is exactly how OnePlus started promoting the yesteryear flagship OnePlus 5T before the launch. With the teaser page out and television commercial featuring on different channels, it is safe to assume that the launch is now only days away.

While the teaser on Amazon India does not reveal anything, the television commercial provides some details on the design aspect of the upcoming OnePlus flagship. In the commercial, Amitabh Bachchan is seen holding the phone and his index finger resting below the rear camera module. The phone shown in the advertisement wears midnight black design (matte black edition) that was introduced with the OnePlus 6. In recent reports, the OnePlus 6T was speculated to feature a tri-camera module on the back. In the commercial, however, the phone is shown sporting a dual camera module and Amitabh Bachchan’s index finger strategically covering rest of the space, leaving the speculation unanswered.
