OnePlus 6T With In-Display Fingerprint Scanner And Triple Rear Expected to be Unveiled on October 17

OnePlus will launch its next flagship phone ‘OnePlus 6T’ on October 17. The smartphone is expected to be priced at around $550 (approximately Rs. 39,839.25). The OnePlus 6 launched at a starting price of Rs. 34,999 for the 6GB RAM + 64GB storage model.

OnePlus has also posted a teaser on Twitter hinting at the new in-display fingerprint technology. Notably, the Oppo R17 Pro also has the scanner embedded inside the display. The latest render, discovered on Weibo. The leaked image clearly shows that the OnePlus 6T would feature a triple camera setup similar to the Huawei's P20 Pro. Strangely, the image doesn't seem to have a flash module anywhere in sight. Overall, the device seems similar to the OPPO R17 Pro (recently launched in China) in terms of design.

The upcoming 6T has three cameras on the rear side. The three camera modules are stacked vertically. Below the second camera sensor, we can see the aperture values- f/1.6 and f/2.4. That being said, OnePlus might be bringing back the secondary telephoto lens with the OnePlus 6T, going by the aperture values.

The images also suggest the device could feature a tiny notch. The pictures posted on the site showed a white coloured box with OnePlus 6T written over it and inside the box, there was a blueprint image of the phone.

As for the specifications, the OnePlus 6T is likely to be powered by a Snapdragon 845 chipset aided by up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The phone could launch with Android 9.0 Pie out of the box, with the next version of OxygenOS underneath.
