OnePlus 5T with 18:9 Display Confirmed to Launch on November 16th

A couple of weeks back, we have seen several articles mentioning the leaked OPPO F5 smartphone as the upcoming OnePlus 5T. However, the device in the image lacks the alert slider on the left edge. OnePlus debuted this physical toggle button with the OnePlus 2 and is continued till the OnePlus 5 launched in June this year. We will see this same feature even on the upcoming OnePlus smartphones. Apart from a few minor changes, the design of the OnePlus 5 looks almost similar to the OPPO R11 launched in China.

How, the upcoming OnePlus 5T and OPPO F5 might again share the similar design with 18:9 display on the front. Unlike the OPPO F5, the OnePlus 5T will be coming with a dual camera setup on the rear. With the long 18:9 aspect ratio, the bezels on the device are expected to be trimmed to the minimum thickness and will mostly feature on-screen navigation buttons. The fingerprint sensor will be shifted to the rear of the device. OnePlus’s Oxygen OS already includes an option to opt for capacitive navigation buttons instead of on-screen navigation buttons.

While the OnePlus 5 came with Android 7.0 Nougat, we expect the upcoming OnePlus 5T to run on Android 8.0 Oreo out of the box. Last year’s OnePlus 3T came with the same design as OnePlus 3, but the upgrades are made internally. Apart from sporting the upgraded Snapdragon 821 processor, the OnePlus 3T also came with a bigger battery and upgraded selfie camera. Though the below OnePlus 5T image looks legit, take it with a pinch of salt until there is an official confirmation. Stay tuned on PhoneRadar as we expect more leaks to follow soon.

From the last few weeks, we have been seeing several leaks about the OnePlus 5T smartphone. We expect the company to launch this new smartphone in the month of November. Though there is no official information regarding the OnePlus 5T, the newly leaked teaser image reveals a couple of details. Firstly, we will be looking at the all-screen display on the front with 18:9 aspect ratio.

We expect the company will continue with its Optic AMOLED panel and might offer Full HD+ (2160 x 1080 pixels) display. Also, the upcoming OnePlus 5T will be missing the front-facing physical home button. Instead, the device will sport fingerprint sensor on the rear along with on-screen navigation buttons. Based on the earlier leaks, the new OnePlus 5T with a 6-inch 18:9 display is said to measure same as OnePlus 5 with 5.5-inch 16:9 display.

After being in the rumors mills for the last few months, OnePlus has started teasing about the OnePlus 5T from the last one week. Now, the company has officially confirmed the OnePlus 5T to launch on November 16th in Brooklyn, New York. The quoted text saying “A New View” also hints about the rumored Optic AMOLED display with 18:9 aspect ratio. Recently, the company also confirmed the presence of the 3.5mm headphone jack on this smartphone.
