OnePlus 9RT could be launched in India under a different name, according to information shared by a tipster. The smartphone is yet to be announced by OnePlus, over a month after the company launched the device in China. OnePlus 9RT, which is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC and features a 50-megapixel triple camera setup, could reportedly launch in India as OnePlus RT, and has reportedly been listed on two different Google websites with the same name.

The OnePlus 9RT has been spotted on both the Google Supported Devices List and Google Play Listing website, according to tipster Mukul Sharma. However, the device does not bear the same name as the one that was launched in China in October. Instead, the company is tipped to launch the phone in India as OnePlus RT. "The same model build has received the BIS certification in the past," Sharma tweeted. The device was previously expected to launch in the country in November, according to reports.

While the device might have been spotted on Google's websites, it is worth noting that OnePlus has not confirmed any plans regarding the launch of the OnePlus 9RT (or OnePlus RT) in India.
