OnePlus confirms the 8T will have a 120Hz display
- OnePlus has confirmed the display specifications of the 8T.
- Not only does it offer a refresh rate of 120 Hz, but it also offers flexible 2.5D screen technology that should shrink the frames.
- The company continues to promote color accuracy and HDR support.
You don’t need to consult spec leaks to learn more about the OnePlus 8T’s display until its October 14 debut. OnePlus has confirmed important details of the 8T screen and also promises a significant upgrade compared to the 8 Pro.
Rumor has it that the OnePlus 8T display will have a refresh rate of 120 Hz, which was previously limited to the high-end 8 Pro. It won’t necessarily be a dramatic improvement over the OnePlus 8’s 90Hz, but it should still be a welcome upgrade if you value smooth web scrolling or social apps.
The 8T is also a first for any OnePlus phone: a flexible 2.5D screen. No, it’s not a foldable phone, but company boss Pete Lau said it was TechRadar That the 6.55-inch panel allows for more light and a peak brightness of 1,100 nits – you shouldn’t blink to see content on a sunny day. It should have slightly thinner bezels than previous OnePlus phones and achieve a screen-to-body ratio of 91.9% versus “only” 90.8% on the 8 Pro.

Color accuracy will continue to be the focus. OnePlus is promoting 100% coverage of the DCI-P3 color space on the 8T display with a barely perceptible color difference of 0.3 and support for HDR10 + to increase the dynamic range of supporting content such as videos.
OnePlus said nothing more about the 8T than about its screen. However, if history is a clue, then you can expect it to dribble out details in the weeks leading up to launch. There can be a few. Rumor has it that the 8T could get quad rear cameras and a slightly faster Snapdragon 865 Plus chip.
It’s not sure if there will be a Pro counterpart, though leaks have claimed the 8T will stand alone. With these display specs, however, this wouldn’t be a surprising move. Simply put, you may not get much more out of an 8T Pro. A “simple” OnePlus 8T will not only catch the pro, it will claim an advantage in some areas.
