Review | OnePlus 10T phone review: fast charging, fast processor, good camera with dual-view video shooting but no zoom lens
- The mid-priced OnePlus 10T has the latest Snapdragon processor and incredibly fast battery recharging, although there is no wireless charging
- The camera system is great in low light and can shoot video from the front and back at the same time, but there is no zoom lens
When you hear the term mid-priced phone, you probably think of older or slower components in a phone that is just decent. Not so with the OnePlus 10T – for the most part.
Design and hardware
The phone measures 6.4 inches by 2.96in by 0.34in (16cm x 7.5cm x 0.8cm) and it weighs just 203 grams (7.17 ounces). Unlocking options include an in-screen fingerprint reader and facial recognition.
Other top features include a 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a dynamic refresh rate up to 120 Hertz, which means the screen can refresh itself up to 120 times per second, making motion look very smooth and clear. The screen has a resolution of 2,412 x 1,080 pixels for a pixel density of 394 pixels per inch. The graphics chipset is the Adreno 730.
It is sporting the latest and fastest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 processor with a new cooling system to keep the phone running at top speed.
The 10T comes in two configurations, with 8 gigabytes of RAM and 128 gigabytes of storage (US$649) or with 16 gigabytes of RAM and 256 gigabytes of storage (US$799).
Software and features
The handset runs the Android 12 operating system as well as OnePlus’ Oxygen 12.1 overlay. Oxygen is OnePlus’ software that tweaks the stock Android interface. Android 13 and Oxygen 13 are coming later this year.
