After pushing back the launch date thrice due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as revealed by CEO Pete Lau, OnePlus has decided to move ahead with the launch of the much-awaited OnePlus 8 series. The new "flagship killers" will officially be unveiled on 14th April.
The Chinese giant has today taken to Twitter to share an official teaser for the upcoming OnePlus 8 series. It carries the tagline ‘Lead with Speed’ and is confirmed to feature a 120Hz display, 5G connectivity support, and a lot more. You can check out the teaser for yourself right here:
As for what we should expect from the launch, the company should launch three new smartphones and possibly, a pair of Bullets TWS earbuds as well. The landing page shows the OnePlus TV too, but we are not sure whether the company will launch a new TV just yet.
The OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro have leaked extensively over the past weeks. We have a good idea of what to expect from the two devices. The former is expected to feature a 6.55-inch Full-HD+ 90Hz AMOLED panel whereas the latter will feature a 6.78-inch QHD+ 120Hz AMOLED panel. Both the variants will be powered by the Snapdragon 865 chipset, quad-camera setup with two 48MP sensors, and most likely, 50W super-fast charging and 30W wireless charging.
The third smartphone is expected to be a mid-ranger. Yes, OnePlus is looking to make a return to the mid-range segment with the rumoured OnePlus Z (previously known as the OnePlus 8 Lite). It will be a successor to OnePlus X from back in 2015. This device will feature a flat AMOLED display, MediaTek Dimensity or Snapdragon 765G chipset, and a triple camera system.
So yeah, if you have been waiting on the launch date for the OnePlus 8 series, it’s finally here and we will see what the company has in store two weeks from now.
