This may be your first real-life look at the OnePlus 8T
Jul 28, 2025
You might not have to guess what theOnePlus 8Twill look like in the real world. Well-known tipster Ishan Agarwal hassharedwhat appears to be leaked live photos of the OnePlus 8T, giving a feel for what it will be like in your hands.
The leaked photo shows a OnePlus 8T in the phone’s signature Aquamarine Green hue. If you don’t mind what looks to be a less-than-flattering clear case, this represents a good peek at the new upper mid-range device. The camera bump seems even more prominent than it does inOnePlus’ official video— there’s little doubt that photography will play a more prominent role than it did withthe 8.
The OnePlus 8T is poised to be a subtle evolution of the 8 that brings some of the8 Pro’sfeatures to a more affordable level while adding some features of its own. It’s poised to include a 6.55-inch120Hz OLED screen, a 48MP main camera (with 16MP, 5MP and 2MP secondary rear cameras), and a roughly 4,500mAh battery with65W fast charging. You may have a more affordable option with 12GB of RAM, too. It might still stick with the regular Snapdragon 865 chip, but it could otherwise be a viable upgrade for people who wanted some of the OnePlus 8 Pro’s features but balked at the price.
