OnePlus CEO Pete Lau has stated that the company’s next flagship is arriving next month. The OnePlus 10 Pro will come in January 2022, Lau said on Weibo. He did not clarify the exact date for the rollout. OnePlus is likely to release two phones as we have seen in the last several years; a OnePlus 10 Pro and a OnePlus 10 phone. Both phones will be flagship smartphones from the brand.

The OnePlus 10 series will feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, which Qualcomm unveiled earlier this month. The business is also likely to have a physical event at CES 2022 in Las Vegas on January 5, when the new phones might be showcased. We know the OnePlus phones won’t be the first to come with the Qualcomm flagship CPU. Xiaomi’s 12 series is coming on December 28 in China, and the most premium phone in this will likely be powered by the same.

Expected specifications for the OnePlus 10 and OnePlus 10 Pro
One significant difference with the OnePlus 10 series will be the operating system, as OxygenOS will no longer be supported on these devices. It will be the first time that the integrated operating system, which combines Oppo's OxygenOS with its ColorOS, will be used on a smartphone. "With this approach, we are working on the creation of an integrated operating system that combines the very best strings of OxygenOS as well as ColorOS," Lau had stated in September. "

Tipster @Onleaks shared images of the OnePlus 10 Pro, which showed a triple camera setup at the back in a square camera module and a matte finish on the back. The front of the phone has a fingerprint scanner and a textured finish. According to rumors, the OnePlus 10 series will have a 6.7-inch display and a 5000 mAh battery. It will be interesting to see if an R variant, similar to the OnePlus 9R from last year, is introduced this time around as well.

With the launch of OnePlus, the company established a partnership with camera manufacturer Hasselblad, which assisted in improving camera performance. It is unclear whether OnePlus will continue with the same strategy in 2018. New leaks, on the other hand, suggest that the OnePlus 10 will feature an improved front camera as well as wired charging at 80W.
