That said, the phone’s hardware will be slightly different than that of the OnePlus 3.
We assumed we had learned all there was to potentially know about the OnePlus 3T release. However, the only confirmed piece of news from OnePlus is that the phone will launch with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 chipset.
Reports out of China suggest OnePlus may be prepping an upgraded model of the OnePlus 3, known as the OnePlus 3T, and it may be hitting the market as early as November 14; at least according to sources on Weibo.
Since the improvement does not seem to be limited only to the memory, OnePlus 4 should be one of the fastest when it comes to the smartphone segment.
‘T-7: The Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 (2.35GHz) is coming your way. Clocked at 2.35 GHz. Find out more on November 15, ‘ OnePlus had tweeted on their official Twitter account. It can be recalled that its predecessor has been one of the consumers’ favorites with its already powerful 6 GB of RAM but the new addition to the line appears to be more impressive. Now taking a look at the teaser image, we can see that the device is going to look just like the OnePlus 3, at least from the back. However, the 2016 flagship device still named OnePlus 3.
Other, less certain, rumours we’ve heard about the OnePlus 3T include the fact there will be a Quad-HD LCD screen and a 128GB storage option. On the Oppo R9s duo, the sensor has been paired with a bright f/1.7 aperture lens, but it remains to be seen what aperture lens OnePlus will go with for the OnePlus 3T. Also the new handset could be the first to offer a display better than 1080p and feature a 5.3-inch 1440p AMOLED. Also read our OnePlus X review and OnePlus 3 review. If the OnePlus 3, with Snapdragon 821 and OLED display, sold at less than $400, expect a price increase of anywhere from $80 to $100.
