OnePlus 5T will carry the same price tag as the OnePlus 5, report says
The OnePlus 5T will carry the same price tag as its predecessor, the OnePlus 5, according to a new report – meaning pricing will start at £449 for the 64GB variant and top out at £540 for the 128GB model.
Scheduled to be announced on November 16, the OnePlus 5T is rumoured to feature near-identical internals to the OnePlus 5; it should pack the same Snapdragon 835 processor, 6/8GB of RAM and 16MP front-facing camera.
The successor is, however, tipped to tout a larger 6-inch edge-to-edge Full HD AMOLED display with an 18:9 aspect ratio, an upgraded dual-camera configuration (20MP+20MP) and a beefier 3,500mAh non-removable battery.

Those aren’t groundbreaking improvements by any means, but they’re everything the OnePlus 5 should have shipped with when it hit the shelves back in June – and exactly what it needs to compete with the table-topping Galaxy S8.
Granted, Samsung’s offering has a higher-resolution screen and some neat software features, but the OnePlus 5T will sport a dual-camera and is expected to cost a fraction of the price, making it worthy of OnePlus’ “Flagship Killer” title.
