It’s been rumoured before that the OnePlus 5T will cost the same as the OnePlus 5, which is €500 for the 64GB version and €560 for the 128GB model. But a rather vague tweet from OnePlus CEO Pete Lau suggests otherwise. He goes: “Cost of smartphone components is rising, but phones are also getting better. OnePlus users will appreciate what’s coming.”
As GSMArena points out, the trend with OnePlus (and most of the phone manufacturers really) is the price increases with each new device. Perhaps Lau is suggesting we’re getting better value for the price? Some of the earlier rumours about the device claim we’re getting an 18:9 display with a better camera. We now just have to wait and see if we are getting more from the newest OnePlus flagship.
