No more: OnePlus 8T is certifying the vanilla S865 chipset, OnePlus watch and power bank


The OnePlus 8T is doing the rounds and collecting the necessary certifications and some of the leaked information in the process. It looks like the phone will use the vanilla Snapdragon 865 chipset, just like the current OnePlus 8 (older T-models upgraded to Plus version).

Previously, the 8T went through Geekbench with Android 11 on 8GB of RAM, but that left inconclusive evidence of which chip is used. While it will be powered by the older chipset, the T can be upgraded to a 120Hz display.

Also, the camera department should be more reminiscent of the 7T, with a tele camera (8MP). That’s not all, the main module is expected to switch to a 64MP sensor (instead of 48MP).

The 8T duo may be the first OnePlus phone to support 65W fast charging. If that’s the case, we should soon see a certificate for the new power pack as well.

In addition to the 8T, BIS also certified what appears to be the OnePlus Watch and a power bank. The watch will be round, unlike its Oppo Watch cousin (and it may be similar to another cousin, the Realme Watch S Pro). Unfortunately, BIS is more secretive than the FCC, so we don’t get any photos or specs for either device.

A bit of OnePlus trivia: The company launched its first power bank in 2015 and also had plans for a round smartwatch that year (Carl Pei tweeted design sketches). However, the watch project was suspended.
