Chinese handset maker OnePlus on Thursday unveiled its new flagship, the OnePlus 5T, at a glitzy event in New York. The insides of the smartphone are pretty much the same as compared to its predecessor, the OnePlus 5, that was launched just five months ago.
While OnePlus has kept the pricing of the OnePlus 5T the same as its predecessor. The device will be available in 64 GB and 128 GB (midnight black) variants for Rs 32,999 and Rs 37,999, respectively.
While OnePlus’s early offerings were dubbed as genuine flagship killers, it remains to be seen if its latest offering gets anywhere close to that. Regardless, there are many firsts that OnePlus has brought to its offerings as it looks to strengthen its market in the premium segment.
Most prominent among these are the revamped dual camera settings, near-bezel-less design, fingerprint scanner on the rear and facial recognition.
