The OnePlus 5T price in India starts at Rs. 32,999 for the 6GB RAM/64GB internal storage variant and goes up to Rs. 37,999 for the 8GB RAM/128GB internal storage variant. It will only be available in a Midnight Black color variant.

Refreshing the specifications, the smartphone supports dual-SIM and runs on Android 7.1.1 (Nougat) (OxygenOS 4.7). It sports Face Unlock feature which the OnePlus company says is based on advanced facial recognition algorithms. There is a fingerprint scanner on the back panel as well. Notably, the OnePlus 5T foregoes the hardware capacitive buttons that have been a staple on the offerings from the Chinese company.

The OnePlus 5T features a 6.01-inch Optic AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors (1080 pixels by 1920 pixels) display with an 18:9 aspect ratio, 401ppi pixel density, and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection. The smartphone display also supports sRGB and DCI-P3 color gamuts. Just like the OnePlus 5, the OnePlus 5T is powered by an Octa-core (4x2.45 GHz Kryo & 4x1.9 GHz Kryo), Qualcomm MSM8998 Snapdragon 835 processor with either 6GB or 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM.

The OnePlus 5T sports a primary sensor that is almost identical to the OnePlus 5, of 16 MP Sony IMX398 with 1.12-micron pixels, and an aperture of f/1.7. The secondary sensor is a 20 MP Sony IMX376K which replaces the 20 MP Sony IMX350 sensor which came paired with a telephoto lens. Both have the same focal length, of 27.22mm. Unlike OnePlus 5, the company is now targeting low-light conditions more than the portrait mode. OnePlus also claimed that the new 5T features 'Intelligent Pixel Technology' for capturing more light in low-light situations. At the front, there's again a 16 MP Sony IMX371 sensor, also seen on the OnePlus 5. The OnePlus 5T is backed by a 3300mAh non-removable battery and supports the company's Dash Charge fast charging.
