The OnePlus 7T is about to launch across the world, and fans of the platform are extremely excited. Though the 7T isn’t a full generational upgrade, it nevertheless has a lot of advantages over the previous models. Even better, the OnePlus 7T comes at a great price point.
What’s New in the OnePlus 7T?
Let’s discuss some of the benefits of the new OnePlus. It isn’t a dramatic difference, given that the entire platform isn’t being revised. But the differences that are there are considerable, and owners of previous OnePlus models should see a marked improvement.
Here are some of the most important upgrades:
- Once a “Plus” feature, the 7T now has a 90 Hz “Fluid Amoled” panel with a 20:9 aspect ratio and 6.55 inch display size. The aspect ratio enhances the phone’s picture size while still making the phone comfortable to hold.
- The water drop notch on the OnePlus has been made a little smaller by 31%. That further increases the usable amount of screen on the phone.
- An upgrade to the Snapdragon 855 Plus chipset, which is going to go up to 2.96 Ghz. The phone will be even faster, which is great for power users.
- An upgraded GPU, which is expected to have about 15% better performance. This is likely to be even more noticeable than the processor upgrade.
- A better, upgraded battery to 3800mAh. This battery will support the new components and provide greater battery life.
- Faster charging. The OnePlus 7T will be fully charged in about an hour.
All in all, that’s a lot of upgrades for this phone, even if the phone isn’t moving into an entirely new generation yet.
