OnePlus 7T will be shipped with OxygenOS based on Android 10 out of the box, which offers improvements like an updated gallery and more. The OnePlus 7T is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ processor and has two variants — 8GB RAM with 128GB of storage and 8GB RAM with 256GB storage. OnePlus has used UFS 3.0 storage with its latest flagship to deliver faster read times. The smartphone also gets features like improved haptics, Fnatic mode for better gaming experience, and Dolby Atmos support.
Colours
The new OnePlus 7T gets matte frost finish back glass panel, which attracts a lot fewer fingerprints and scratches. The smartphone comes in two different colour options — frosted silver and glacier blue.
Camera
The OnePlus 7T features a triple rear camera setup with a 48-megapixel primary sensor, a 16-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, and a telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom. The front of the smartphone has a waterdrop-style notch at the top of the display, which holds a 16-megapixel sensor.
Additionally, the rear camera also features a Super Stable mode, which the company claims to help improve camera stabilisation by combining both optical and electronic stabilisation setup. The camera has also been optimised for macro photography, which offers better closeup of still objects.
Battery
The OnePlus 7T sports a 3,800mAh battery, and a 30W fast charger. OnePlus calls its fast charger Warp Charge 30T and claims to charge 0 to 70 per cent battery in 30 minutes. This charger will be shipped along with the device.
