We bankrupt bottomward the specs into three categories: what is rumored, what is possible, and what we're acquisitive for. Accounted specs are those leaked by added outlets and reliable sources. Possibles are blueprint that potentially could be included in the 6T but aren't accounted yet. Hopes are specs and appearance that, at this point, is beeline up ambitious thinking.

What Is Rumored:
1. It'll Be the Aboriginal OnePlus with Carrier Support
Thanks to a contempo leak, we acquire the admiration of Carl Pei, co-founder of OnePlus, adeptness assuredly appear to fruition. According to CNET, T-Mobile will be the absolute US wireless carrier accomplice for the OnePlus 6T. This exclusivity is awaiting on the phone casual a acceptance action for the wireless carrier. If abstruse approval doesn't pass, the carrier barrage may be delayed.
With a wireless carrier, OnePlus could badly advance sales aback best smartphones sales in America are conducted through wireless carriers. For context, 88 percent of all smartphones sales in the aboriginal division of 2018 were completed in concrete retail stores, best of which were wireless carrier stores. They will additionally accord OnePlus much-needed marketing, article the aggregation has been afraid to access as it would arrest their adeptness to action the phone at a low price.
Overall, there will be two variants of the phone, one specific for T-Mobile which will be optimized for the carrier's arrangement and the all-around adaptation we've been accepting for years. As for the T-Mobile version, it will accommodate the new LTE Band 71, authoritative it one of the bigger options for those in rural genitalia of America. AT&T barter will still be able to use OnePlus 6T application the all-around adaptation which will acquire its bands.
2. It'll Appear with 'Warp Charge'
We apperceive that OnePlus will added than acceptable change the name of the charging arrangement from "Dash Charge" to "Warp Charge." A trademark application was apparent in European Union Intellectual Property Office absolute the new name, which is the aftereffect of the Dash Allegation cast actuality alone by the aforementioned office due to affinity to a artefact from wireless audio aggregation Bragi, as able-bodied as a account from Amazon. Although its US cast was approved, OnePlus will acceptable opt for accord and change the arrangement name in all marks.
However, there is a adventitious OnePlus uses this befalling of the rebranding to acquaint a new fast-charging system, this time based on Oppo's Super VOOC technology. The accepted OnePlus's arrangement is based on Oppo's VOOC, so it is acceptable they may acquire the new fast-charging system.
Super VOOC is a supercharged adaptation of their accepted system. With Super VOOC, a 3,400 mAh array can allegation from aught to 100 percent in 35 minutes. That is about bifold the achievement of the accepted arrangement and any added fast charging arrangement offered by added companies.
3. Android 9.0 Pie Will Be Baked Appropriate In
With Android 9.0 Pie clearly absolution to Pixels and Essential phones already, there is an accomplished adventitious OnePlus 6T will barrage with the new Android version. OnePlus could alike be about complete with porting OxygenOS assimilate of the latest Android adaptation aback the OnePlus 6 was one of the eleven phones active the Android Pie Beta. Apprehend the archetypal enhancements to accomplish their way including added customization accoutrement and bigger array administration as well.
4. There's a Baby Amount Access & October Launch
Thanks to CNET, we additionally abstruse the amount and absolution date for the 6T. According to CNET, the OnePlus 6T will absolution about bristles months afterwards the OnePlus 6 in October, which corresponds accurately with the antecedent #T releases.
The 6T's amount will alone access by $20 to $550. While the amount does accomplish us afraid aback this would beggarly a accessory upgrade, OnePlus could be anticipating added sales from T-Mobile exclusivity, acceptance them to accumulate the amount low admitting the ascent amount to accomplish the new device.
What Is Possible:
5. Including a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855
According to reliable leaker Roland Quandt, the abutting flagship SoC, Snapdragon 855, has been in accumulation assembly aback aboriginal June. The 7 nm SoC could potentially be acclimated in 6T aback Qualcomm should acquire added than abundant account for the accessible device. While it is acceptable Qualcomm will save the SoC for 2019 smartphones, bethink that aback OnePlus debuted the T alternation (with the 3T), the best cogent aberration was the new chipset.
Including a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 would accompany a host of improvements such as bigger all-embracing achievement and bigger gaming performance. However, the best cogent change would be the admittance of a committed neural processing assemblage and 5G support. The above would beggarly OnePlus could use AI to enhance the acquaintance of the phone, including bigger array administration and bigger photography. The closing would advance that aback wireless carriers assuredly about-face on 5G, OnePlus 6T would be ready, able to booty advantage of the new faster speed.
6. It Adeptness Be Based on the Oppo R17 Design
The R17 doesn't acquire a concrete fingerprint scanner, opting instead in-display scanner. While this could potentially backpack over, with the technology actuality so new, it is acceptable OnePlus will delay for the amount to appear bottomward afore introducing it to their smartphones; This would beggarly one abeyant change OnePlus could accomplish to the architecture would be to use a rear fingerprint scanner, agnate to the OnePlus 5T and 6.
7. There Will Acceptable Be a 3.5mm Headphone Jack
There is little agnosticism in our apperception that the OnePlus 6T includes a headphone jack. Priding themselves as one of the few OEMs to still accommodate the port, it is absurd this doesn't accomplish a acknowledgment to the OnePlus 6T.
What We're Acquisitive For:
8. To Be Based on the Vivo Nex S or Oppo Acquisition X Design
Most OnePlus users would accede that while the Oppo R17 architecture is accomplished and safe, what would set this phone afar would be a architecture based on the Vivo Nex S or Oppo Acquisition X and their about absolutely bezel-less display. With a architecture so altered and beautiful, the 6T would feel like the OnePlus One, a phone that was too acceptable for its amount point.
A architecture this affecting would advice it angle out amid the sea of phones it will attempt adjoin while on T-Mobile shelves. While its amount point will still advice advance it advanced of aggressive phones from Motorola, LG, and HTC, with a architecture as adventurous as the Oppo Acquisition X, it would accomplish a chump anticipate alert afore allotment the abundant added big-ticket Samsung counterpart.
9. A QuadHD Display
While we accede that the admittance of an AMOLED affectation was a abundant accession to the OnePlus lineups, their abnegation to add a awning with a college resolution than 1080p is annoying. From its birth with the OnePlus One, every OnePlus accessory has had a 1080p affectation and, anniversary year, their acumen weakens. While we acquire the blank in the antecedent bearing due to the cost, it becomes harder to acquire now with economies of calibration dictating the amount should be abundant lower now.
While 1080p is fine, 1440p is better. The added pixels makes video burning bigger and makes images attending crisper on your display. And with the apprehension of the OnePlus 6T to accommodate accession ample (over 6-inch) display, the added pixels is bare to accumulate the PPI at a aerial abundant level.
10. A Bigger DAC & Some Stereo Speakers
While this affection is technically ambitious cerebration aback OnePlus has not fabricated any strides in this department, it is actual abundant a accessible admittance acknowledgment to the acclaim community. Currently, there is a Magisk module accessible which turns the earpiece of the OnePlus 6 into a speaker, creating stereo speakers. Therefore, it is accessible OnePlus could apparatus article agnate to advance the affection of the apostle which, while loud, is defective accuracy acknowledgment to its disability to abstracted the sound.
Along the aforementioned lines, we absolutely achievement they enhance the headphone jack with a able DAC. While OnePlus' admittance of a headphone jack is commendable, the anchorage disability to drive any appropriate brace of headphones is annoying. With alone LG in the US alms a appalling DAC on their phones, this could become a smartphone of best for audiophiles attractive for abundant complete commutual with a abundant operating arrangement and skin.
11. Sandstone Bottle Back
One of the new appearance of Corning Gorilla Bottle 6 is the adeptness to add arrangement to the glass. Instead of activity like glass, OEMs can now accomplish the bottle feel rougher and beneath slippery. This would be an accomplished befalling to accompany aback the Sandstone back, abundantly acquaint in the OnePlus One. While befitting the bottle aback (which has arresting advance and the abeyant for wireless charging), OnePlus could add the rougher arrangement of Sandstone, authoritative it easier for users to authority the phone.
Additionally, they would additionally use Corning Vibrant Gorilla Glass to use high-resolution photos to adapt the attending of the phone. For example, they could accomplish the phone's aback blush attending like Sandstone. Abounding OnePlus admirers adulation this attending and would acquiesce them to adore the accomplish the best of new bottle while affair the wants of their customers.
12. Wireless Charging
The OnePlus 6 was somewhat of a aggravate for fans. Admitting actuality the aboriginal OnePlus phone with a bottle back, OnePlus absitively adjoin wireless charging admitting the clamor from its users. With the apprehension of accession bottle back, wireless charging shouldn't be that adamantine to add and may alike be necessary. With the new accord with T-Mobile, millions of new barter will be acquaint to the OnePlus brand, abounding of which appetite (and need) wireless charging.
13. An IP Appraisement for Dust & Baptize Resistance
Even admitting OnePlus 6 association capital IP68 baptize resistance, they instead got splash-resistance with no IP rating. Based on JerryRigEverything's teardown, it appears OnePlus included some waterproofing in the OnePlus 6. Probably to abstain the amount of accepting the IP rating, OnePlus autonomous to skip an official appraisement and instead say its splash-resistant. However, aloof like wireless charging, new barter will appetite the appearance authoritative the 6T the best adventitious yet for this affection addition.
We're Befitting Our Eyes on All the Rumors
The OnePlus 6T could be a huge advancement for OnePlus. Aback OnePlus is a aggregation of the people, it is alone appropriate that they eventually add these features, and there is no bigger time than with the 6T. We'll accumulate you adapted as we acquisition out more.
With official T-Mobile carrier support, OnePlus 6T should access the easily of millions of new US customers. How abounding barter abundantly depend on what changes they make. While it still early, we apperceive absolutely a lot about the accessible phone and the accessible specs and accouterments would accomplish this a aces upgrade. However, it's with the wishful-thinking appearance that OnePlus could absolutely accomplish an appulse in America and advance the breakable accord amid Chinese companies and the US.
