Back in 2016, OnePlus 3T was released as a half-yearly refresh over OnePlus 3. The Shenzhen based OEM used slightly upgraded SoC (Snapdragon 821 instead of Snapdragon 820) and bumped the battery capacity from 3,000 mAh to 3,400 mAh.

However, the company literally made it a custom of releasing such ‘T’ models. Skip back to last year, and they released a limited edition McLaren themed variant of OnePlus 6T. Compared to the regular 6T, it featured 30W fast charging (Warp Charge 30).

The moral of these stories is quite straight forward. The lifetime of the gadgets, especially smartphones, are shrinking drastically. OnePlus is doing their job and compressing the product cycle to less than 6 months (if you consider the McLaren edition) to boost the sell count.

Well, this is that time of the year when the regular OnePlus flagship stats to receive discounts and makes the way to the ‘T’ variant. In fact, (in)famous leakster Steve H.McFly aka @OnLeaks already shared the technical details of the upcoming OnePlus 7T and OnePlus 7T Pro.
