Leaked: OnePlus 3T likely to sport Snapdragon 821, Sony IMX398 sensor

The next smartphone from OnePlus, touted as the 3T, is expected to launch sometime in December. Serial tipster Evan Blass tweeted that the upcoming device will cost $80 more, than the original OnePlus 3.

In terms of specifications, the device is expected to feature a LCD panel, instead of the Optic OLED display. However, this could only be a rumour as CEO Carl Pei had stated that the company would continue to use OLED panels.  It will be powered by the latest Snapdragon 821 processor. The device will run Android 7.0 Nougat with Oxygen OS on top. The latest rumour states that the device will feature a 16MP Sony IMX398 sensor.

The current price for the OnePlus 3 is roughly $399. If Evan Blass proves correct, the OnePlus 3T will be around $479 (approximately Rs 32,000).

There were rumours that the company might unveil the OnePlus 4 early next year. For starters, OnePlus 4 is likely to sport a 5.5-inch screen with a probable 4K display and curved design. It could also use the recently-announced Gorilla Glass 5 for protection. The smartphone could also feature stupendous 8GB of RAM, higher than the 6GB of RAM in OnePlus 3.

It might be too soon to say, but the device could be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 830 processor. Also included could be a 23MP rear camera along with an 8MP selfie snapper. Running the latest Android 7.0 Nougat, OnePlus 4 is anticipated to pack a battery having 3500mAh to 4000mAh of capacity.
