Similar to what Motorola appears to have done with the Edge 30 and Edge 30 Pro, OnePlus is reportedly preparing to launch a “regular” version of its latest flagship after the existing Pro model. The break with the company’s traditions not only confuses everyday consumers but also often reliable tipsters and leakers who can’t seem to agree on whether the “vanilla” OnePlus 10 will finally come to pass and what it will look like compared to its ultra-advanced but flimsy sibling.While the design is still very much up for debate, the existence of the non-Pro (and non-R-branded) OnePlus 10 is largely etched in stone today Steve Hemmerstoffer (in partnership with Digit.in). This guy, no, is the legend behind the rock-solid @OnLeaks Twitter account with a nearly complete spec sheet that can be shared with the world ahead of an official product launch, most likely scheduled sometime in the “second half” of this year. share. The reason why this isn’t complete (yet) is because the company itself is said to be torn between Qualcomm’s next-gen Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+ processor and MediaTek’s absolute Dimensity 9000 beast, which has managed to outperform the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 (Non-Plus) Early benchmarks. Right off the bat, this sets the OnePlus 10 apart from the Dimensity 8100 Max-based 10R, which should be a powerhouse in its own right…just without this more distant high-end phone.
Unsurprisingly, the 10 and 10R will also share a number of key features, including cutting-edge 150W charging technology, a 50MP main shooter, and a 6.7-inch AMOLED display (aka Full HD+) that supports a 120Hz refresh rate and a resolution of around 2400 x 1080 pixels .
Like the higher-res 10 Pro, the “regular” OnePlus 10 should be able to adjust its refresh rate from 120 all the way to 1Hz depending on what’s playing at all times, thanks to something called LTPO 2.0 backplane technology , rather than the many cheap 5G flagships currently available. Of course, we’re currently not sure how affordable this well-equipped device will prove to be, especially in a 256GB storage configuration that also includes a massive 12GB of RAM. Fortunately, for die-hard OnePlus fans on a budget (less than $900 or so), there should be an entry-level variant with 128 local digital hoarding rooms and 8GB of RAM.
Both models will have a sizable 4,800mAh battery and run Android 12-based OxygenOS 12 out of the box on the software side, while pairing the aforementioned 50MP main camera with the humbler 16 and 2MP snappers on the back and a single 32MP selfie shooter. Incorporate sensors.
Last but not least, the non-Pro OnePlus 10 could be the brand’s first flagship device to reject the iconic alert slider, which seems like a very strange way to save on production costs, and one that has The guaranteed way to alienate a once-powerful fan base.
