OnePlus 9RT Might Carry Different Moniker In India; Appears At Google Play Console

OnePlus is rumored to have skipped the “T” series launch this time and rather launch the OnePlus 10 series instead of the OnePlus 9T. This development started doing rounds soon after the OnePlus 9RT’s arrival in the Chinese market. The premium mid-range phone is yet to make its debut in India and the official timeline remains a mystery as of now. However, a new leak suggests this handset might come with different branding in the country. Ahead of the anticipated launch, its listing has also gone live at Google Play Console.

OnePlus 9RT Indian Model Specifications Listed At Google Play Console

The OnePlus 9RT Indian model’s listing at Google Play Console has been shared by tipster Mukul Sharma on Twitter. Additionally, the handset has also made its sighting at the Google Supported Devices page. The device is spotted with the OP5154L1 model number which is the same as the BIS (Bureau Of Indian Standards) listing leaked a month back.

It is worth mentioning that while the model number is the same, the device might not launch with the OnePlus 9RT moniker in India. The handset has been listed with the OnePlus RT moniker instead. Unfortunately, the company is yet to confirm if it plans to launch this handset in the country anytime soon.

Also, the brand hasn’t dropped off any hints that it will carry a new moniker. Therefore, it can’t be said for sure if we will see the OnePlus 9RT rebranded as OnePlus RT in India or will get the OnePlus 10 series instead. Nevertheless, the OnePlus 9RT Indian variant’s spec-sheet leaked on Google Play Console is identical to the Chinese model. If in case the device ships with different labeling, we know what features to expect.

OnePlus RT/ 9RT Key Specifications, Features

The OnePLus RT or the OnePlus 9RT will feature a 6.62-inch AMOLED display with 1080 x 2400 pixel screen resolution and 120Hz screen refresh rate. The panel will have a punch-hole packed with a 16MP snapper for selfies.

The device might offer up to 256GB storage configuration and come void of expandable storage support. The handset could be driven by a 4,500 mAh battery supported by 65W fast charging.

The upcoming model is rumored to be the Galaxy A13 which as per recent leaks will be available with both 4G and 5G network connectivity. There have been several leaks doing rounds online hinting at the key specifications and features of the upcoming device. However, Giznext has managed to get hands-on the complete renders, and this is how the Galaxy A13 will look like.

Samsung Galaxy A13 Full Design

As mentioned above, we at Giznext have managed to source the official renders of the Samsung Galaxy A13. One of the industry sources has helped us with the images. The leaked renders confirm the Galaxy A13 will bring a new design language compared to its predecessor, i.e, the Galaxy A12.

We’ll speak of the differences first. The Galaxy A13 will be launched with a single-tone back panel. The upper left corner will be housing three camera sensors (circular) aligned vertically. Notably, the sensors aren’t housed inside any module rather are positioned separately and are protruding from the remaining body.

This is unlike the previous model (Galaxy A12) where you will get a square-shaped camera setup at the back. The built material seems plastic here. The Galaxy A13 will same the same design upfront as the Galaxy A12. The device will feature a waterdrop notch display.

The bezels would be slim at the sides and on the top but will be slightly thicker at the chin. Now, coming to the placement of the keys and ports. The Galaxy A13 will have the SIM card tray on the left panel. Whereas, the right spine would be accommodating the volume rockers along with the power key.

Notably, the power key will be integrating a fingerprint scanner for biometrics. We can also confirm the availability of the black color option. The company might introduce other variants as well.

The smartphone is tipped to come with up to 8GB RAM and 128GB storage configuration. We might see a 6.48-inch LCD display with an FHD+ resolution and 20:9 aspect ratio.

The Galaxy A13 triple rear camera setup is likely to pack a 50MP main camera, while the waterdrop notch display upfront might accommodate an 8MP selfie camera. Also, the rumors suggest the Galaxy A13 will be equipped with a 5,000 mAH battery which will get 25W fast charging support.

We would like to add that these are the rumored hardware and Samsung is yet to give an official nod on the same. Until then, it would be advised to take the specification details as a grain of salt.

OnePlus 10 Pro Might Debut On This Date; All You Need To Know

OnePlus earlier this year announced the OnePlus 9 series and if we go by all the recent reports, the brand has skipped the launch of the OnePlus 9T series itself. The OnePlus 10 series is said to be introduced directly instead of the “T” series which has been the trend all this while. The rumor mill has already started sharing key information related to the OnePlus 10 and the OnePlus 10 Pro. A new leak now hints at an early arrival of the latter variant.

OnePlus 10 Pro Official Launch Timeline Announced

The OnePlus 10 Pro’s official launch timeline is leaked by Max Jambor on Twitter. The tipster has shared a chart showing the launch timeline that suggests the OnePlus 10 Pro will be announced in China by January or February next year.

The global launch timeline is suggested approximately a month or two later. This means the device will likely break covers by March or April 2022. However, OnePlus has not announced the timeline for the OnePlus 10 series launch officially just yet.

So, we’ll have to go by the dates tipped on Twitter. That’s also considering the previous leaks have suggested the same timeline and also the handset is in the testing phase. It is worth highlighting that the chart shared by the tipster only mentions the OnePlus 10 Pro and not the OnePlus 10.

But, there are sleek possibilities that the OnePlus 10 Pro will go official solo or ahead of the OnePlus 10. We are expecting the company to announce both devices together. Nevertheless, OnePlus would be announcing its new flagship lineup in less than a year’s timeline which it has been following until now.

OnePlus 10 Pro Expected Specifications And Features

The OnePlus 10 Pro is said to be launched with the Snapdragon 898 processor. This is the upcoming flagship-grade chipset by Qualcomm with octa-cores and 5G network connectivity. The standard OnePlus 10 is also tipped with the same premium Qualcomm chipset.

The complete specifications are yet to be revealed. However, rumors are rife the OnePlus 10 Pro will come with a 1440p Fluid AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. We will keep you posted with the remaining specifications details as well as its pricing and availability.
