 We’ve already heard that the OnePlus 11 will feature the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset straight from OnePlus, but according to a reliable source, that’s just the tip of the iceberg of what we can expect from the company’s next flagship smartphone. The OnePlus 11 will benefit from three major upgrades, if reliable leaker Digital Chat Station is to be believed.

The OnePlus 11 could get 16GB of RAM

While the OnePlus 10 Pro is barely underpowered in the RAM department with 12GB of RAM, the OnePlus 11 will apparently hit 16GB. This puts it in line with the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra and OnePlus 10T.

UFS 4.0: Why does it matter?

Also on the table is an upgrade to UFS (Universal Flash Memory) 4.0. This would make the OnePlus 11 one of the first phones to feature it, and it should offer major improvements in speed and efficiency.

UFS 3.1 has read and write speeds of up to 2,100MB/s and 1,200MB/s, respectively, while UFS 4.0 boosts it to 4,200MB/s and 2,800MB/s, respectively. It can also reach speeds of 23.2Gbps per lane, twice as fast as its predecessor. You can also expect a 46% increase in efficiency, which means longer battery life.

OnePlus 11 may have a ceramic body

Finally, Digital Chat Station says the OnePlus 11 will feature a metal frame and a ceramic body. OnePlus is no stranger to this, using it on special editions of both 2015’s OnePlus X and last year’s OnePlus 10 Pro.

Note, however, that the last tip is controversial. The well-informed Max Jambor popped up on Twitter, saying that the ceramic body didn’t happen after all. Although he does support the UFS 4.0 statement – which is more important in the larger plan.

Speaking of Jambor, the leaker also does a good job of explaining why these good-sounding updates are coming to the OnePlus 11 and not the OnePlus 11 Pro: thanks to the simplified rebranding, they’re the same.

 Leaks hinted at it, but now the company has confirmed it: the upcoming OnePlus 10T will be the first main-series OnePlus phone without an alert slider. It’s an interesting shift in focus for the company.

The news comes directly from OnePlus, which has been furiously detailing its new phone ahead of its official launch on August 3. In forum posts, OnePlus defended its decision to drop the feature, blaming the new feature that came with the phone.

“Our users expect high-power charging, large battery capacity, and better antenna signals from OnePlus devices. To excel in each of these three areas, the space inside the OnePlus 10T needs to be taken up by new technology.” This reasoning does make sense — there’s only a certain amount of space inside a phone, and unless a brand is willing to make a huge phone (which OnePlus obviously isn’t), sacrifices have to be made.

Alert sliders were popularized by the iPhone, but in the world of Android phones, OnePlus has always been their true champion. They’re a physical slider that you can use to easily toggle between silent, vibrate, or full volume ring mode so you don’t have to unlock your phone and change those settings when you’re in a meeting or want to take a call.

More recently, the OnePlus 10 Pro has a slider, but we should point out that the feature isn’t available on the company’s mid-range and budget OnePlus Nord devices.

Analysis: Clearly an unpopular decision

The decision did not go well among OnePlus fans. In the comments to the forum post, many fans expressed their dissatisfaction, with some accusing the brand of taking away the uniqueness of their devices, while others pointed out that the brand’s slogan (Never Settle) was ironic for removing such a feature.

When the phone launches, though, those fans may change their tune. Fast charging, in particular, is currently popular among phone fans, with OnePlus launching 150W fast charging in phones earlier in 2022. So there’s a good chance the 10T will get it as well.

We’ll need to see what hardcore OnePlus fans have to say about the company’s next phone after August 3rd.
