The biggest upgrade is said to be in display, with the company increasing the screen size of the 5T model to 6-inches with 2160 x 1080p resolution, thereby making it an 18:9 smartphone for better visual experience, GizmoChina reported on Monday.
The successor to OnePlus 5 seems to take a cue from Samsung Galaxy S8 on the front with narrow bezels on the top as well as the bottom and a taller-than-wider design language.
"The launch is said to be around early November so there isn't a lot of time left for its official unveiling of the device," the report added.
OnePlus did a similar thing in 2016 by releasing OnePlus 3T barely five months after introducing OnePlus 3.
OnePlus 5 with dual rear cameras was launched in India in June in two variants -- 6GB RAM/64GB storage and 8GB RAM/128GB storage for Rs 32,999 and Rs 37,999, respectively.
The device houses 16MP+20MP rear dual-camera combination and 16MP front shooter.
Smartphones with 18:9 aspect ratio or edge-to-edge displays are a rage now and China-based Vivo also introduced a 18:9 aspect ratio flagship device in September.
