OnePlus will not be launching the rumoured 9T and 9T Pro smartphones this year. While the company could be looking at not launching mid-year refreshes of its flagship devices, the OnePlus 9 RT could still make an appearance. Here we will be taking a look at why the company is not launching “T” variants of its smartphones and everything we know about the upcoming OnePlus 9 RT.
According to a report by 91Mobiles, OnePlus will not be launching OnePlus 9T and OnePlus 9T Pro smartphones this year. The report states that the company “believes its existing lineup of flagships and affordable smartphones meet the specific needs of users in different markets, which is why they don’t feel the need to introduce T versions of the OnePlus 9 and OnePlus 9 Pro.”
The company in an interview with 91Mobiles stayed mum about the OnePlus 9 RT, which is expected to launch in India and China in the coming days. Earlier reports suggest that the company will be launching the phone on October 15, and it will serve as an upgraded version of the OnePlus 9R, which was launched earlier this year.
OnePlus 9 RT: Expected specifications
OnePlus 9 RT according to earlier reports will feature a 6.55-inch full HD+ Fluid AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 SoC paired with up to 12GB of RAM along with 128GB of internal storage. The device will run Google’s Android 11 operating system with the company’s own OxygenOS skin on top. All of this will be backed by a 4,500mAh battery with support for 65W fast charging.
Coming to the cameras, the OnePlus 9 RT will sport a triple camera system at the back consisting of a 50-megapixel primary sensor, a 16-megapixel wide angle lens and a 2-megapixel monochrome sensor. At the front, it will feature a 16-megapixel sensor to capture selfies.
