introduction
OnePlus 10T is the company’s latest premium smartphone. While not quite the new flagship, the 10T packs many of the features and specs one might expect from a modern Android smartphone along with enough sacrifices to keep the price in check.
OnePlus’ T series started as a riff on the iPhone S series way back in 2016 with the OnePlus 3T and has been a mainstay of the corporate range ever since.
This year’s 10T isn’t necessarily an upgrade over anything as there was no OnePlus 10 to build on. But it could also be for the best as OnePlus’s non-Pro models have always been overshadowed by the Pro version and launching a few months later with the T badge should help it stand out a little more.
And that’s pretty much what the OnePlus 10T is. It’s the phone we most likely would have recovered in March along with the more expensive OnePlus 10 Pro if OnePlus had followed its usual launch strategy, but will instead arrive in August with an updated processor and a few more bells and whistles.
The OnePlus 10T specifications at a glance:
- Body: 163.0×75.4×8.8mm, 204g; Glass front (Gorilla Glass 5), glass back (Gorilla Glass 5), plastic frame.

What are these bells and whistles, we hear you ask. For one, the OnePlus 10T comes with the same incredible 150W charging solution we saw on the OnePlus 10R, but is now more sophisticated, efficient, and safer. There’s also a new cooling system, rumored to be the best on any OnePlus phone to date, along with a new antenna system. And then, of course, the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 makes its debut on a OnePlus phone along with 16GB of RAM.
All in all, it looks like the OnePlus 10T has the company’s typical focus on speed and performance. But let’s see how the rest of the phone stacks up.
Unboxing of OnePlus 10T
The OnePlus 10T comes with fairly standard OnePlus packaging. The boxes have gotten smaller over the years, but they retain all of the same items you would have gotten before, including a charger, which is becoming rarer these days.
The charger, in this case, is an Oppo 160W SuperVOOC. It is quite a large piece of equipment and also weighs quite a bit. It uses a USB-C connection and also supports 45W USB-PD charging.
Although the charger is common to all regions, 150W charging will only be supported in regions with 220V power outlets, while regions like the United States with 110V outlets will cause the charger to be limited to 125W.
In some markets like India, you can also expect to get a clear silicone case inside the box.
