design
OnePlus phones in the same series look similar, and the new OnePlus 10T is no different. The placement of the camera sensor clearly shows that it resembles the OnePlus 10 Pro, especially when viewed from the back. The phone retains its matte look and enhances the phone’s aesthetic appeal. The OnePlus 10T has more rounded corners and flatter on the former, so the front looks different than the OnePlus 10 Pro.
It fits comfortably in the palm of your hand and is light enough to be easily carried around, allowing you to operate it for hours without stress. The company has surprisingly removed the alert slider, which disappointed us because it made it feel like the company had lost its trademark. are placed. The SIM tray is located on the underside along with the Type-C port and speaker outlet. At the top is a secondary mic and IR blaster for active noise cancellation.
The front of the phone has a tall display with a centrally located selfie sensor and a built-in fingerprint sensor that responds very quickly to touch. The body is protected by Gorilla Glass 5, so even a sudden drop won’t damage the phone.
screen
The new OnePlus 10T features a 6.7 FHD+ AMOLED screen with a 20.1:9 aspect ratio. It has a 120Hz refresh rate and a touch sampling rate of up to 1000Hz. It has a brightness level of 950 nits and is HDR10+ compatible. It has a resolution of 2412 x 1080 pixels and supports 10-bit color. The bezel is very thin and offers a lot of space.
Color reproduction is good as the colors produced are very vivid, bright and punchy. The screen looks comfortable even in bright sunlight. This screen offers an immersive viewing experience, allowing you to play any video in pristine quality from any online streaming platform. The screen scrolling and gaming experience are very fluid, the game performance is improved and you can enjoy more gaming time.
OS
The new OnePlus 10T will run on Android 12-based OxygenOS, and the company claims it will get an OxygenOS 13 update along with the OnePlus 10 Pro later this year. There aren’t a lot of bloatware on the phone, though there are some OnePlus-branded applications that you can uninstall if you want.
processor and performance
The latest OnePlus 10T comes with the fastest CPU on the market, Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1. No need to explain how you handled your daily activities. I checked the SoC performance on iQOO 9T and Galaxy Z Fold4/Flip4.
It has an Adreno 730 GPU for gaming. Frame Stabilizer and GLC (GPU Load Control) further enhance your gaming experience. Additionally, the phone boasts a customized AI System Booster 2.1 to ensure continuous power management and system-level enhancements.
It features a high-performance mode that allows your CPU to run at peak performance with little concern for battery life or high temperature thresholds. Off-screen graphics benchmarks show the OnePlus 10T to be the top performer, improving the 10 Pro’s excellent performance by a frame per second.
The unit we reviewed comes with 12GB RAM and 256GB ROM configurations. The processor is fully supported from RAM and the phone has top performance in every section.
camera
The new OnePlus 10T features a 50MP Sony IMX766 primary camera sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide lens with a 119.9-degree wide-angle view, and a 2MP macro lens as the second and third sensors. The rear camera sensor is very effective at capturing details, but the photos are a bit lackluster when compared to the OnePlus 10 Pro.
The captured images were very detailed and sharp with good saturation levels. The daytime images are full of detail. The presence of AI can sometimes make it too saturated, but you can disable it if you prefer. Surprisingly, the new 10T doesn’t come with a zoom camera, but he does have a 2x setting in the zoom selector, allowing you to capture good images while using this feature.

The ultra-wide-angle lens does a decent job of taking all the details into consideration, but the lack of autofocus means you have to maintain patience while shooting. This is because I was able to shoot sharp images with large exposure. The new OnePlus 10T has a 16MP selfie lens, which allowed me to take crisp and sharp selfies while using it. Subject detection was decent, and portrait selfies were pretty good too.
battery
The OnePlus 10T comes with a 4,800mAh battery power with a 150W SuperVOOC charger, but although the adapter says 160W, it only delivers 150W. We liked the charging speed as it easily lasts a day and the battery is fully charged from 0-100% within 20 minutes. I’m using.
Conclusion
We’ve spent quite a bit of time on the new OnePlus 10T, and outside of the camera, we can say that the new OnePlus 10T is an upgrade in every other section, not just performance. The new OnePlus 10T is a perfect product, but it misses a few key features like wireless charging, no IP rating, lack of a telephoto lens, and most importantly an alert slider.
