Just a couple weeks after the launch of the OnePlus 7T in India, the company has now flown to London to unveil the much-awaited upgrade for its higher-end OnePlus 7 Pro flagship. Dubbed the OnePlus 7T Pro, as expected, this smartphone is a minor upgrade over its predecessor and brings some meaningful (yet underwhelming) changes in tow.
On the design front, the company hasn’t changed almost anything. You’re still getting a huge phone with curved edges, a frosted matte finish on the rear, a triple camera setup, and the same old pop-up selfie camera. There’s now a new Haze Blue color option and I mean, it’s nothing major. It’s only a little lighter shade of blue as compared to the 7 Pro.
OnePlus 7 Pro suffered from a lot of complaints about accidental touches and well, we yearn for the 7T Pro to perform better since it’s an upgrade. One of the biggest new upgrades is found on the interior instead of the exterior. This smartphone comes equipped with the Snapdragon 855 Plus chipset, paired with up to 8GB RAM and 256GB onboard storage.
OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren Edition
Alongside the standard OnePlus 7T Pro, the company has also launched a new “McLaren Edition” of its higher-end flagship smartphone. There isn’t any major difference between the two devices on the interior, but the exterior has been upgraded to match the look of previous year’s McLaren special edition phone.
OnePlus 7T Pro has been launched at a starting price of Rs. 53,999 for the 8GB+256GB variant in India, which is a thousand bucks higher than the previous-gen OnePlus 7 Pro. The McLaren Edition 7T Pro has been priced Rs. 58,999 and it’s decent compared to the previous-gen model.
