OnePlus 10 Pro's unveiling confirmed for January
Rumors and leaks about the OnePlus 10 series have been painting the picture of what we should expect when OnePlus' next-generation flagships are revealed. And now, OnePlus founder Pete Lau himself has given us confirmation about the announcement time frame for the OnePlus 10 Pro (and possibly, the OnePlus 10 as well), as first spotted by GSMArena.
He didn't confirm any other details about the upcoming phone, other than the fact that it will most likely be revealed sometime in January of next year. The confirmation comes on the Chinese social media website Weibo. Lau didn't reveal a precise date or any other event-specific details, so for now, we will wait and see.
Apart from that, leaks and reports about the upcoming phone have given us a lot of information about what we should expect from the phone. Here's what we know so far on the OnePlus 10 Pro.
Recently we reported on some of the OnePlus 10 Pro specs that were leaked on Weibo. Reputable tipster Digital Chat Station gave some information about the upcoming phone that corroborated earlier rumors and leaks.
The new info coming from the post is that the OnePlus 10 Pro will likely support super-fast wired charging of 80W. Wirelessly, the phone will be able to charge with 50W. Both speeds are quite fast and should be able to top up the OnePlus 10 Pro's battery quickly enough so you won't have to worry about your battery going dead.
On the back, the phone is expected to feature a 48MP main camera, complemented by a 50MP ultra-wide camera, and an 8MP 3x telephoto camera for zoomed-in photos.
