The Inquirer hinted that the leaked photo features two smartphones placed inside cases hiding the both their bodies. The photos are allegedly the prototype of OnePlus 7 on the left side which was obviously bigger than the OnePlus 6T which is believed to be the phone on the right. Both smartphones on the leaked photo bear the phrase "Never Settle," the OnePlus motto.
The alleged OnePlus 7, found on the left side of the photo features an all-screen design. The screen appears to be curved on both sides although not as curved as those of the Samsung Galaxy series'.
The phone believed to be the OnePlus 7 noticeable has no notch for a camera. If this is indeed a prototype of the company's 2019 flagship phone, then rumors could be proven true that OnePlus 7 will be using a slider mechanism to give way for the camera and other missing features due to its no-notch, ultra-thin bezel design. The slider mechanism is what Honor Magic 2, Oppo Find X and Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 are using.
On the other hand, the phone on the right side of the leaked photo is believed to be the OnePlus6T. It is much smaller than the alleged OnePlus 7 and features an inverted teardrop notch for the front camera. The alleged 6T also has an ultra-thin bezel, all screen design with sides appearing to be curved on the side.
Both the two smartphones have holes on top of their cases although the alleged OnePlus 7 has one bigger than the alleged OnePlus 6T. The holes are believed to be intended for Facial ID, a deep infrared sensor, camera and more.
Tracing the OnePlus phone release pattern, the company has been observed to introduce new phone release every six months. For the record, OnePlus 6T has just been released in October 2018 and if the company follows their six-month release cycle, then OnePlus 7 will not be seen on the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on February. Instead, anticipators should expect to get their hands on the flagship phone on spring, according to Tom's Guide.
