It is to be noted that the company is yet to announce the price tag. Liu also confirmed a 6.7-inch display, as well as colours - Glossy Green and Matte Black.

Recently, the Amazon landing page of the OnePlus 10T went live, which revealed that the smartphone will be available for pre-order via the e-commerce website starting August 3. The handset has also been confirmed to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC.
