Here is the OnePlus 6T -- coming October 30
OnePlus has revealed more about the upcoming OnePlus 6T. The company is famed for ramping up the hype ahead of a new launch, and things are no different with its latest handset.
The company has now revealed when the OnePlus 6T will launch -- October 30, at an event in New York City. As well as revealing this, OnePlus has also confirmed that it is no longer possible to sign up for The Lab -- a review opportunity it created to enable a select few to get their hands on the OnePlus 6T early.

We've known quite a lot about the OnePlus 6T for a while now. The name was expected and then confirmed, we learned that it is ditching the headphone jack, that the notch has been reduced in size compared to the OnePlus 6, and that there's an in-display fingerprint reader.
OnePlus took to Twitter over the weekend to trail its announcement:

The tweet doesn't give away much more about the phone, but you can see a quick glimpse of what the handset looks like. It's now just a matter of weeks until we see it properly.
