The OnePlus 7T arrives on September 26


The OnePlus 7T arrives on September 26

Google may be prepping to launch the Pixel 4 in October, but OnePlus is beating it to the punch. The maker of reasonably-priced phones today announced it will officially reveal the OnePlus 7T series on September 26.

It appears that in North America, the launch will only be live-streamed rather than booking a publicly-accessible venue like we’ve seen in the past. You’ll be able to watch the launch at 10:30 AM ET on OnePlus’ YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook pages. OnePlus will also be holding offline events in New Delhi and London, beginning at 19:00 IST and 16:00 BST, respectively.

The company isn’t saying much beyond confirming the device’s name, and that it will once again feature a silk-smooth 90hz display. The rumor mill has been fairly light so far, but according to reliable leaker Steve Hommerstoffer (AKA OnLeaks), we should expect a Snapdragon 855+ on the new models, giving a small performance boost. In terms of features, there are some rumblings of a new 960fps slow-mo mode and a macro photography feature.

If these are some of the bigger changes do the device, you probably won’t feel too compelled to upgrade from the already-excellent OnePlus 7 Pro; the company usually continues to sell its previous model alongside the newer one, so you might be able to get a good deal on the 7 Pro once the 7T Pro is out.
