Information related to the OnePlus 8 series has leaked online quite a few times now. The latest one claims that the handsets could be launched earlier than expected. OnePlus usually schedules the first launch of the year in May. At least that’s what it is doing for the past couple of years. It is followed up by the T-series launch in the second half of the year. However, it is tipped that OnePlus could be looking forward to launching the OnePlus 8 Pro and OnePlus 8 in late March or April.
The latest development comes from tipster Ishan Agarwal who took to Twitter to reveal the information. Moreover, both the phones could come in a green colour variant. The early launch could help lengthen the gaps between launches of OnePlus T-series phones. To recall, OnePlus 7T was announced just four months after the OnePlus 7. Hopefully, OnePlus will take more time to introduce the T-series this year.

Recently, Amazon was spotted providing advertising fees on the two upcoming OnePlus flagships. Amazon India’s affiliate page featured a category named “NEW: Mobile Phones a 1 per cent Fixed Advertising Fee”. It listed the OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro with OnePlus 7T series and the OnePlus 7 Pro. Hence, the official announcement could be just around the corner.
Moreover, the company also announced the creation of its 120Hz Fluid Display that uses MEMC technology for smoother video playback and a QHD+ resolution. Hence, the upcoming phones, especially the OnePlus 8 Pro and OnePlus 8 are likely to feature a 120Hz refresh rate. The OnePlus 8 Pro is tipped to produce quad HD+ resolution along with 120Hz refresh rate.
The upcoming flagship smartphone is said to feature wireless charging capabilities as well.
