The OnePlus TV will be joined by a branded soundbar and perhaps even a subwoofer, judging by purported leaked images.
Ahead of the upcoming launch event on September 26, images show the television itself, as well as the remote and some audio boosting technology.
The image of the remote, if accurate, is the first time we’ve seen it pictured in the flesh. There’s a dedicated Google Assistant button for the Android TV set and, interestingly, an Amazon Prime Video button.
The silver remote also has a touch-sensitive pad with a centre button for navigation, while there’s a menu button, back and home buttons, along with a OnePlus button.
The images of the TV itself (published by SlashLeaks via Android Authority) tie-in with what the company has teased thus far. However, one of the purported press images in particular shows a branded OnePlus soundbar and what appears to be a subwoofer alongside beneath the wall-mounted set.

This is the first we’ve heard of a branded soundbar and subwoofer combination for the OnePlus TV. It has been rumoured that the OnePlus TV will have eight speakers with a combined 50 watts of power, complete with support for Dolby Atmos. An Amazon listing spied earlier this month also promised “punchy bass to fill your living room.”
With all of this audio tech on board, a soundbar might be a little less necessary than your average television, but it appears OnePlus is going to give users the option of boosting their audio tech further.
Just yesterday OnePlus CEO Pete Lau tweeted an image of the TV’s stand. Showing an attractive metal-coloured base.
