OnePlus 6T With In-Display Fingerprint Sensor Launched in India

On Tuesday, OnePlus launched OnePlus 6T at an event held in New Delhi, India. This India launch happened just after one day of New York’s Launch Event. The smartphone is just an upgrade of the company’s own Flagship OnePlus 6 which was launched 5 months ago.

The major upgrades on OnePlus 6T, when compared with OnePlus 6, are an in-display fingerprint sensor, a teardrop notch, a larger battery, a larger display, Android Pie 9.0 out-of-the-box, improved low-light photography, and smart-boost optimization. The base variant of 6T starts with 128GB onboard storage, so no 64GB variant this time.

We feel there is two downgrade on 6T over 6, first is the removal of headphone jack but they did include 3.5mm to Headphone Jack adapter in the box (some companies don’t even include that) and second is removal of Physical LED Notification Light but company did include ‘lift-up-display’ feature to read notification from lock screen.
