OnePlus 9T or 9T Pro May Not Launch This Year

Jul. 28, 2021



The rumor comes from reliable leaker Max Jambor. He took to Twitter to share that OnePlus may not launch the OnePlus 9T this year. When asked about the possibility of the 9T Pro, he furtheraddedthatwe may not see OnePlus 9T Pro either.

Notably, Max was the same person who revealed thatOnePlus will skip the OnePlus 8T Prolast year. In line with his leaks, OnePlus skipped the 8T Pro and launched just the regular 8T last October. Considering how Max is fairly accurate when it comes to OnePlus leaks, we could assume that the OnePlus 9T or 9T Pro aren’t coming later this year. That said, we will have to wait for the official confirmation from OnePlus to be entirely sure.

The rumor doesn’t come as a surprise though. With OnePlus focusing on the Nord lineup with the newNord CE 5G&Nord 2 5Gand the existence of the fairly capable OnePlus 9 series, which includes the affordable OnePlus 9R, the 9T series might seem odd. OnePlus could add OIS andSnapdragon 888+to the regular OnePlus 9 for a T-series upgrade, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
