OnePlus 10 Pro leak reveals 125W fast charging, 50MP and 48MP rear cameras

By Prakhar Khanna Published March 30, 2022

The OnePlus 10 Pro is expected to launch in the first quarter of 2021, initially in China ahead of global availability. We’re clearly not far from the release because OnePlus 10 Pro renders have already given us our first look at the next flagship, and now almost all of the specs have leaked online.

The latest development comes from Steve Hemmerstoffer, aka OnLeaks, who has partnered with 91Mobiles to reveal the expected details about the OnePlus 10 Pro. The smartphone is rumored to feature a 6.7-inch Quad HD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate. If you look closely at the renders, it seems like the device will have curved edges, which makes sense since the OnePlus 10 Pro is likely to borrow design elements from the Galaxy S21 Ultra, with the camera module melding into the right edge.

The alert slider and power button lie on the right edge, while the volume rocker could still be on the left. There is no room for the headphone jack, but it will have a USB-C port, SIM tray, and speaker grille placed at the bottom.

The OnePlus 10 Pro will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, which is expected to become official by the end of this month and follow the new naming convention. It will be the flagship system on a chip that is likely to be found on most of the high-end 2022 Android smartphones. As for configuration, the next OnePlus flagship is expected to come in 8GB/128GB LPDDR5 RAM and 12GB/256GB UFS 3.1 storage options. According to the leak, it will pack a 5,000mAh battery that will have support for 125-watt wired fast charging — up from 65W on the OnePlus 9 Pro.

On the optics front, the OnePlus 10 Pro is expected to sport a triple rear camera setup. It could be led by a 48-megapixel primary sensor and be accompanied by a 50MP ultrawide-angle lens and an 8MP telephoto lens with 3.3x zoom. It may also feature a 32MP selfie shooter. It will be rated IP68 for water resistance.

This is a fairly comprehensive set of leaks, and it looks like the OnePlus 10 Pro will be on par with most upcoming flagships, including the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra.

OnePlus 10T vs. Nothing Phone 1 camera battle shouldn’t be so close

Nothing Phone 1 and OnePlus 10T camera modules.

The OnePlus 10T is the first new phone to come from OnePlus since former co-founder Carl Pei launched his company’s first phone, the Nothing Phone 1. The OnePlus 10T is more expensive than the Nothing Phone 1, yet isn’t as stylish and doesn’t share the same materials, but there are some similarities in the cameras. Putting Pei’s former company’s new phone against his own seemed like an opportunity too good to miss, so which has the better camera?
OnePlus 10T and Nothing Phone 1 camera specs
The OnePlus 10T has a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 main camera, with optical image stabilization (OIS), plus an 8MP wide-angle camera and a basic 2MP macro camera. The Nothing Phone 1 also has a 50MP Sony IMX766 main camera with OIS, but it's joined by a 50MP wide-angle camera and entirely foregoes a third camera. On the front of both is a 16MP selfie camera.

What makes this test interesting is seeing the differences not only in the way both companies tune the same main camera, but also in how the different processors assist with image reproduction. The Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 in the OnePlus 10T is the top chip available from maker Qualcomm, while the Nothing Phone 1 has a mid-range Snapdragon 778G processor.

Does the OnePlus 10T have wireless charging? What you need to know

OnePlus has launched the OnePlus 10T, marking the return of its T-series lineup after last year’s hiatus. While the new midrange smartphone offers some impressive specs, there’s one crucial thing you may want to keep in mind about the OnePlus 10T before you rush out and hit the buy button.

Although wireless charging is arguably table stakes on midrange and premium smartphones in 2022, the OnePlus 10T is a surprising exception to this rule. Like its predecessor, the 2020 OnePlus 8T, this latest T series smartphone lacks any form of wireless charging.

OnePlus’s newest accessory brings 80W charging to your car for $39

Official product render for OnePlus's 80W car charger.

In addition to today's full reveal of the OnePlus 10T, OnePlus has announced its new SuperVOOC 80W car charger. This is a huge step for mobile charging on the go. We've seen just how fast 80W can fully juice a device when plugged into a wall outlet, so being able to take those sorts of charging speeds with you on things like road trips or quick errands will be a major convenience. The unfortunate thing about the new OnePlus SuperVOOC car charger, however, is that it won't support all devices.

The charger features two USB ports: one USB-A that supports 80W charging speeds and one USB-C that supports 30W speeds with Power Delivery (PD) standard. If you're looking to make use of the 80W charging speeds from the USB-A port, you'll need to be using a OnePlus phone like the 10T or 10 Pro. Otherwise, you'll need to stick to the 30W charging of the USB-C port. Admittedly, 30W charging is still pretty solid, especially for a car charger, but the fact that only OnePlus devices support 80W charging is a bit disappointing.
