​OnePlus 7 Confirmed Date of Release, Specs and Improvements

Due to the numerous leaks and rumors involving the flagship trio, we now have as much information as one can, with less than a month until the official release.

OnePlus 7 will be launched together with OnePlus 7 Pro 4G and OnePlus 7 Pro 5G models, and will be OnePlus’ first “notch-less” device because of its novel pop-up selfie camera. The back camera will contain a triple setup, 48MP, 20MP and 16MP lenses, also a first in the firm’s history.

The trio will be launched in May 14th, according to a leaked poster shared on Social Media by Ishan Agarwal. OnePlus 7’s price is still unknown but the rumors say it will start somewhere at  £499 and will reach £579 for the highest-spec model.​

A leaked image shared earlier this week implies that the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G will contain a Snapdragon X55 chipset, and a Qualcomm built-in X50 modem which allows the phone to 5G connection.

The smartphones will also seem to have a 6.67 inch Super Optic display with curved edges. The absent notch suggests that it will have the same in-display selfie camera as the OnePlus 7 model. Another information implies that the OnePlus 7 will come with an 8GB RAM, 256GB storage and a triple camera setup containing a 48Mp, a 16Mp, and an 8MP sensor, along with Google’s Android 9 Pie OS.

The handset will have a volume adjuster on its left side, a power button and an alert slider on its right, the SIM card slot on the bottom, near the USB-C port.

OnePlus’ CEO Pete Lau reported that the OnePlus 7 won’t come with wireless charging support and will also not restore their 3.5mm headphone jack.

In conclusion, if it follows the release agenda of the OnePlus 6, then we can anticipate the new OnePlus 7 to launch in May, and a OnePlus 7T handset to follow later in the year.
