OnePlus 5T announcement reveal

Since the launch of the OnePlus One, OnePlus has been slowly but steadily increasing the prices of its smartphone. Between the OnePlus 3, 3T, and the 5, OnePlus raised the prices of its flagship product by over $100.

With the OnePlus 5T though, the company is bucking that trend. Documents seen by TechRadar confirm that the OnePlus 5T will carry the same price tag as the OnePlus 5. This should come as a relief to many as OnePlus had previously used any upgrade opportunity to increase the prices of its products.

However, the document seen by TechRadar pertains to the U.K. pricing of the handset and it is unclear if the OnePlus 5T will cost the same as its predecessor in other parts of the world or not. The documents also suggested that OnePlus 5T will be available in 64GB and 128GB storage variants.

OnePlus will be unveiling the 5T in New York on November 16. While the handset is expected to sport the same internals and design as the 5, it will make use of a bezel-less 18:9 display similar to other flagships like the Galaxy S8, Note 8, and LG V30. It is also expected to sport an improved camera setup at the rear which will likely make use of dual-20MP sensors. The handset will go on sale from November 21.
