new ones arrived OnePlus 10 5GSome devices that follow the OnePlus 10 Pro line that we saw a few months ago but make some key differences to try to conquer the mobility landscape with two big bets: power and of course mobile photography.

processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 In the first episode, he will be the main character, and in the second episode, it is noteworthy that OnePlus bids farewell to the alliance signed with Hasselblad last year. There is one more surprise farewell: the disappearing warning key so that we can enjoy among other things fast charging like meteor. And there’s more: let’s see.

OnePlus 10T 5G datasheet

A familiar design (but something we missed)

New OnePlus 10T Follows the design lines of the OnePlus 10 Pro in many parts, but especially in the rear camera module, where we find four circular holes with a minor change.

Three of them are for the sensors of this device, and the fourth is devoted to the LED flash. Unlike the OnePlus 10 Pro, the OnePlus 10T is on 5G Changed positions of LED flash and one of the cameras: The flash now covers the upper right corner instead of the lower left corner.

The front camera hole is also displaced, and on the OnePlus 10 Pro this occupies the upper right corner of the front, making it a central position at the top of the device. The 6.7-inch display dominates everything, and we have good news for curved screens that don’t sell well: That of the OnePlus 10T 5G is flat.

One of the biggest innovations of this design is OnePlus’ gets rid of the traditional Alert SliderIt is this switch that allows you to physically activate the “do not disturb” mode much faster and more directly.

It’s a pity because it was one of the hallmarks of these devices and still is. they keep a small logo on the back Take it from the OnePlus and hold the power button (if we’re looking at the screen from the front) on the right and the volume buttons on the left.

On OnePlus, by giving up this switch can offer faster charging (thanks to two “charge pumps” that double this power delivery), a higher capacity battery (it should have been 4,500 mAh if included) and better mobile signal reception.

The back cover is another step in the evolution of OnePlus designs that are passing. different materials and chassis shapes —I had the OnePlus One with a bamboo case, what good memories—and now they’re betting on a redesigned and stylized unibody case for this model, with glass as its protagonist.

we have two different colors: ‘Moonstone Black’—with an interesting micro-grooved texture—and Jade Green, a pale smooth green provided with a fingerprint-resistant layer as in the previous case.

Developed with this last chapter a system with 15 antennas placed around the body for example, it makes it possible to maintain the quality of signal reception even when we play with a mobile phone and cover part of its case with our hands.

The strength and burden of vertigo

The new OnePlus 10T 5G has the most powerful processor today, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1A chip that is of course key to performance in areas such as mobile photography, and obviously helps if we want to use this device for gaming on mobile devices.

At OnePlus, they even created a special case for gamers, which helps to further cool the device during intense gaming sessions.

It is precisely in this part of the game that OnePlus prevents overheating and a longer experience time at maximum performance. your cooling systemIt calls it ‘3D Cooling System 2.0’.

New system according to OnePlus that plays demanding games Allows the temperature to be kept between 2 and 3 ºC Obtained by the mobile phones of the competition after one hour of play. This is achieved thanks to the use of a new wider (37,000mm square, OnePlus guarantees) heat dissipation structure and the use of materials such as copper or graphite.

Accompanying this SoC is, first of all, RAM memory. Can reach 16GB LPDDR5 It is also powered by a new intelligent management system to reduce latency and facilitate more efficient multitasking. Storage capacity can be 128 or 256 GB with UFS 3.1 format.

Another highlight is the OnePlus 10T 5G display. A diagonal of 6.7 inches Supports refresh rates up to 120Hz The refresh rate is dynamically adjusted thanks to LPTO2 technology and we also have HDR10+ support to enjoy our content on that device.

The operating system of this terminal also offers new features: we are facing an Android 12 terminal with OxygenOS 12.1, but OnePlus has hinted about the future. OxygenOS 13, called Aquamorphic Design, a design language inspired by nature and reminiscent of the Aqua interface Apple upgraded early versions of Mac OS X.

With this system, not only improvements in the interface, but also lower load and better memory management. According to OnePlus, the system is 30% smoother, apps load 20% faster and run 10% faster. This new version will launch on the OnePlus 10 Pro and will come to the OnePlus 10T 5G later.

long live fast charging

However, the other highlight of the new OnePlus mobile is fast charging: The 4,800 mAh battery can be charged up to 150 W.

Two charging “pumps” of 75 W each provide access to this common fast charge of 150 W.

They call this mode the 150W SUPERBOOC Endurance Edition and as they say at OnePlus it ensures we have enough charge for the whole day in just 10 minutes. Actually we will need only 19 minutes to charge the whole batteryassures the manufacturer.

Fast charging also doesn’t seem to affect battery degradation significantly: A smart charging algorithm, even using that ultra-fast charging After 1,600 charge cycles we can enjoy 80% of the original capacity of the batteryequivalent to approximately four years of device use. The use of temperature sensors allows this charging power to be adjusted without destroying the battery.

Payload also has a 128-bit encryption algorithm that can recognize official SUPERVOOC adapters. only if these chargers are detected maximum load forces are applied, thus avoiding incompatible accessories.

A little note here: to charge at this power it is necessary to have, for example, 220 V plugs used in Europe. All OnePlus 10T 5G The box includes a 160W SUPERVOOC adapter and a USB-C cable. This adapter is also used to charge laptops or tablets, thanks to its support for the Power Delivery protocol.

Cameras bid farewell to Hasselblad

In 2021, OnePlus teamed up with Hasselblad to try to offer a substantial guarantee on the quality of its cameras, but the truth is, collaborative work does not seem to produce the expected results.

We were even able to see how the photography section on the OnePlus 10 Pro lost instead of gaining points compared to previous models. On OnePlus 10T 5G, where cooperation disappearedand it will be interesting to see how this affects the photographic performance of these models.

main sensor It is Sony IMX766 with 50 MP, OIS and 1/1.56 inch size. (In the OnePlus 10 Pro, it was the 48 Mpixel IMX789, which, according to Hope Liu, one of those responsible for the design of the terminal, allows 10-bit color capture and also improves HDR photography and night photography.

The new camera system is powered by an ultra-wide angle with 119º field of view as well as a macro camera. software, so-called Image Clarity Engine (ICE), a system that updates post-processing algorithms to capture photos faster and with greater detail.

This system joins the HDR 5.0 and TurboRAW systems, and with them OnePlus also wants to offer improvements to night photography. We’ll have to see how it behaves in tests, but of course the unknown Whether the break with Hasselblad will have an effect in this photo results.
