The Chinese smartphone maker, OnePlus has finally launched its much-rumoured flagship phone, dubbed as ‘OnePlus 3T’, which is an upgraded version of the OnePlus 3. The pricing of the smartphone was already tipped last month.

It comes in both 64GB and 128GB storage models, compared to just a 64GB model on the OnePlus 3.

The OnePlus 3T packs a 16-megapixel front-facing camera with Samsung 3P8SP sensor, 1.0 micron pixel size, f/2.0 aperture, PDAF and 1080p video recording, switching from 8MP Sony IMX179 sensors with 1.4-micron pixels. The OnePlus 3T gets a larger 3400 mAh battery compared to the 3000 mAh offering on the OnePlus 3. It also supports Dash Charge (5V 4A) fast charging technology.

The OnePlus 3T is identical with the OnePlus 3 in design and rest of the specifications also remains the same. It also sports anodized aluminium unibody design with 5.5-inch Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) Optic AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass 4 protection. The processor is coupled with 6GB of LPDDR4 RAM.

Connectivity options include 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 4.2, NFC, and GPS/ A-GPS. It has the same USB 2.0 Type-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. It also measures at 152.7×74.7×7.35mm and weighs at 158 grams.
