OnePlus 8T spotted on BIS website

OnePlus 8T could be launched sometime in October

Multiple OnePlus phone listing spotted on official website

OnePlus 8T could launch in India soon as the phone has been spotted passing through the BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards). The OnePlus 8T has also been subject to multiple leaks and speculations are rife whether or not we will get to see an OnePlus 8T Pro this year. 

The listing on the BIS website indicates that the model number of the two phones is KB2001 and as per previous reports the OnePlus 8 goes under the codename Kebab. The listing on BIS could mean that the company is going to launch the OnePlus 8T in India soon. OnePlus 7T was launched in October 2019 and if the company follows the tradition, we could see the 8T launch happening sometime in October. Though all of that is just speculation as we currently have no official word about the phone.

Some earlier reports indicate that OnePlus won’t be announcing the OnePlus 8T Pro this time around, however, as per some latest information coming from serial leakster Evan Blass who spotted five “guides” for yet unannounced phones, the OnePlus 8T Pro seems to exist in the company’s database. So it’s entirely likely that the company may announce the OnePlus 8T Pro after all. These “guides” were subsequently taken down by OnePlus.

OnePlus is reportedly also working on entry-level smartphones under the codename Clover and the phone is expected to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 460 processor. The fifth unnamed device from the listing could be just that.

OnePlus 8T leaked specifications

OnePlus 8T is expected to feature a 6.55-inch Full HD+ (2400 x 1080 pixels) display with a 120Hz high refresh rate. The design of the phone is expected to be an incremental update over the OnePlus 8.

The phone is expected to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 Plus chipset and running on Android 11 based OxygenOS 11. The 8T could come in multiple RAM and storage variants going up to 12GB and 256GB.

OnePlus 8T has been rumoured to come with a 48MP primary camera, a 16MP ultra-wide-angle camera, a 5MP macro camera and a 2MP depth sensor. On the front, there is the same 16MP selfie camera.

The phone is expected to come with support for 65W fast charging out-of-the-box. We will get to know more about the upcoming OnePlus phones as we near the launches.
