OnePlus 8T: This is how it should look
The well-known leaker OnLeaks posted a few days ago Twitter For the first time, render images that are supposed to show the design of the upcoming T-smartphone in advance.
Hardly anything should change on the front: You can see a large, flat display with a punch hole in the upper left corner. The display bezels seem to be very small, but these are just renders that give us a good insight into the design, but can still deviate from reality.
There should be more changes on the back: While OnePlus was last year's 7T put on a circular camera module in the middle, the upcoming 8T will be equipped with a rectangular camera module in the upper left corner. The cameras are arranged in a similar way to the current A-series from Samsung, which can be seen in the following picture.

Probably not a Oneplus 8T Pro
Last year, OnePlus introduced the 7T Pro another, better T variant. This year everything will be different, because there will probably only be an 8T. This was confirmed by Max J., who was quite well informed in advance, on Twitter. In addition, the manufacturer only mentioned the 8T in the official announcement. So it can be assumed that there will probably be no Oneplus 8T Pro this year.
OnePlus 8T: price and availability
As OnePlus officially announced, the OnePlus 8T will be presented on October 14th. The smartphone should be available about a week later, which has already been stated on Amazon.
As already reported by us, the prices are already known. The OnePlus 8T with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of flash memory is said to cost 693,18 euros or 699,99 euros (depending on the VAT rate). There will also be a smaller version with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of flash memory for 599 euros. That would make it as expensive as its predecessor, the OnePlus 7T, and even 100 euros cheaper than the OnePlus 8.
