Although unconfirmed, the OnePlus 3T is said to have the following specifications:
- Snapdragon 821 processor
- Android 7.0 Nougat-based OxygenOS out-of-the-box
- Dash Charge functionality like OnePlus 3
- LCD panel instead of the Optic OLED display

After the success of OnePlus 2, the Chinese smartphone maker a step forward with its Rs 27,999 flagship OnePlus 3, setting a challenge for other players to decide on their future offerings.
