The OnePlus 8T is an Android-based smartphone designed and marketed by OnePlus.[2][3] It is the sixteenth phone released by OnePlus, and was announced on 14 October 2020, and released on 16 October 2020. A variant of this phone is sold by T-Mobile US as the OnePlus 8T+.[4]
Specifications
Design
The OnePlus 8T is similar to the OnePlus 8 externally, with an anodized aluminum frame and Gorilla Glass 5 panels. The display has a circular cutout for the front-facing camera. However, it is differentiated by its display glass, which is flat rather than curved. The back panel has a different camera module with a raised rectangular lens, split into two columns. The first contains three of the cameras, while the second contains the depth sensor, color temperature sensor and dual-LED flash. It is available in two finishes, Aquamarine Green (glossy) and Lunar Silver (matte).[citation needed]
Hardware
The OnePlus 8T is powered by the Snapdragon 865 5G processor with the Adreno 650 GPU, accompanied by 128 or 256 GB of non-expandable UFS 3.1 storage and 8 or 12 GB of LPDDR4X RAM. It has stereo speakers with active noise cancellation, but no audio jack. Biometric options include an optical (in-display) fingerprint scanner and facial recognition.[citation needed]
The display is a 6.55-inch 1080p AMOLED with a 20:9 aspect ratio and HDR10+ support, identical to the 8 aside from the refresh rate, which has been increased from 90 Hz to 120 Hz. The battery capacity is slightly larger than the 8 at 4500 mAh. Fast-charging is supported at up to 65 W via Warp Charge 65 compared to the 8's Warp Charge 30. This is enabled by a dual-cell design, with the battery split into two 2250 mAh cells.[5] Like the OnePlus 8, wireless charging is not supported.
The standard unlocked 8T supports two physical SIM cards,[1] and lacks an IP rating,[6] but it has seals for making the phone waterproof. The T-Mobile US variant has only one SIM slot, but has an IP68 rating.[7]
Camera
The OnePlus 8T includes a quad camera array, consisting of a 48 MP wide sensor, a 16 MP ultrawide sensor, a 5 MP macro sensor and a 2 MP monochrome sensor. Most of the camera hardware is unchanged from the 8, with the Sony IMX586 carried over for the wide sensor. The front-facing camera has a 16 MP sensor.[8]
Software
The OnePlus 8T runs on OxygenOS 11, which is based on Android 11. It is the first non-Google phone to ship with Android 11 pre-installed.
Variants
OnePlus 8T have several variants. The differences are usually with the supported bands and pricing.

KB2001 | India | |
KB2003 | Europe | |

Reception
The OnePlus 8T received positive reviews, receiving an 8.6/10 from CNET,[6] an 8/10 from The Verge,[9] an 8.4/10 from Engadget,[10] and a 3.5/5 from Digital Trends.[11] The phone was praised for its performance, display, software, battery life, and 65 W charging speeds.[6][9][10][11] However, its camera, while nonetheless commended, was criticized as lacking when compared to other flagship phones,[10][12][13] with the macro and monochrome lenses being considered superfluous[6][9][14] or gimmicky.[12] The exclusion of an IP rating (except in phones sold by T-Mobile US)[15] and wireless charging were additionally seen as drawbacks.[11][12][13][14]
Reviewers generally felt the OnePlus 8T to be an incremental improvement from the OnePlus 8.[9] The high-end model with 12 GB RAM and 256 GB UFS was criticized as being overpriced; being the only model sold in the US in contrast to other countries,[13] some suggested that potential US buyers should consider other competing phones[11][12][14] or those from OnePlus.[6][11]
OnePlus 9R
OnePlus re-released 8T as OnePlus 9R as part of the OnePlus 9 series on April 14, 2021. It runs on OxygenOS 11.2.4.4 compared to 11.0.4. It also runs on a new chipset, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 5G and a slightly improved Octa-core CPU (1x 3.2 GHz Kryo 585 + 3 × 2.42 Kryo 585 + 4 × 1.8 GHz Kryo 585) with a new memory option, 256 GB + 8 GB RAM. But it lacks CDMA connection and SBAS. It is available in Lake Blue and Carbon Black for $424.79 (128 GB + 8 GB RAM option).[citation needed]
It also has another version OnePlus 9RT, released on October 13, 2021, and October 19, 2021, in general availability. The OnePlus 9RT has a larger 6.62" screen compared to vanilla 9 and 9R. It runs on ColorOS 12 with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 5G chipset and has CDMA and EVDO connections. It has a 50 MP main camera with OIS, 16 MP 123° ultrawide angle camera and a 2 MP macro camera. Some of the specifications stay the same. But it runs on AMOLED screen instead of Fluid AMOLED compared to vanilla 9 and 9R. It also lacks monochromatic camera. It is available on Hacker Black, Blue and Nano Silver colors.[citation needed]
