  • OnePlus has confirmed that the OnePlus 8T Pro will not come.
  • The company is directing users to OnePlus 8 Pro instead.

OnePlus has offered Pro variants of the OnePlus 7, OnePlus 7T and OnePlus 8 series, but a major leak earlier this month has prompted the company to drop the OnePlus 8T Pro.

Now, OnePlus founder and CEO Pete Lou has confirmed on Weibo that the OnePlus 8T Pro will not come with the OnePlus 8T. Check out the post below.

This prompts users who want a “pro-level” phone to get the OnePlus 8 Pro instead. The machine-translated text also indicates that OnePlus felt that by offering the OnePlus 8T Pro they would not be able to make a major upgrade from the OnePlus 8 Pro.

For what it’s worth, there were no major upgrades from the OnePlus 7T Pro OnePlus 7 Pro last year. However, the OnePlus 7T has received critical acclaim for getting one of the biggest upgrades over the OnePlus 7, such as the OnePlace Rate screen and telephoto rear camera. So it looks like the company doesn’t want to repeat the OnePlus 7T Pro situation of launching a Pro model for it.

The OnePlus 8T rumors and teases point to a great flagship on paper, but the OnePlus 8 Pro still offers a few extra features in the upcoming phone.

The 8TA is expected to offer a 120Hz screen, a 4,500mAh battery and fast wired charging. However, the 8 Pro will add wireless charging, a telephoto rear camera, high-resolution ultra-wide camera and IP rating. Leaks and official announcements indicate that the OnePlus 8T is missing three former features, while water / dust resistance has not yet been confirmed.
