OnePlus 5T with a 6-inch edge-to-edge display to launch in November: Report

Chinese smartphone company OnePlus is gearing up to launch OnePlus 5T in November, according to a report from GizmoChina. The new smartphone will be a successor to OnePlus 5 and will feature almost similar features as the OnePlus 5 except for a larger screen.

As per the report, the OnePlus 5T will abandon the 5.5-inch full-HD (1080x1920 pixels) display of the OnePlus 5, and instead, use a 6-inch full-HD+ (1080x2160 pixels) display with an 18:9 aspect ratio.  The report has also shared an image of what OnePlus 5T will look like, and it certainly looks to have very thin bezels. The development falls in line with other popular flagship smartphones like iPhone X, Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and S8, Google Pixel 2 XL and Micromax Canvas Infinity opting for bezel-less displays too.

The smartphone’s display also appears to have curved edges, making it look very similar to the Samsung Galaxy S8, which has an aspect ratio of 18.5:9.

There appears to be some uncanny similarity to the recently leaked Oppo F5 too. With the OnePlus 5T, one can expect Snapdragon 835 chipset, 8GB RAM and 128 GB of internal memory. The smartphone could also carry forward the dual camera system seen in the OnePlus 5 smartphones.
