OnePlus 11: Expected Features, Leaks, And Rumors

According to a new leak, the good news is coming for OnePlus users. OnePlus is launching a great flagship smartphone, the OnePlus 11. And OnePlus is dropping the “Pro” from the OnePlus name. It will be one of the best smartphones in the first quarter of 2023. The device is powered by the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip.

So guys wait for OnePlus 11 because the OnePlus flagship is coming in 2023.

This smartphone could be the next flagship smartphone from the famous Chinese phone company OnePlus. As we already know, we all love the OnePlus 10 Pro from 2022. So, we are already looking to the future, anticipating what the next version will bring.

This could be the first OnePlus smartphone of 2023. However, in the meantime, we can expect a new addition to the company’s Nord line. According to the last few smartphones of OnePlus, this phone can be one of the best Android phones of 2022. However, we’ll have to wait and see what OnePlus brings.

So far, we have not heard a lot of the OnePlus 11 rumors, but we are starting to hear some hints. All the leaks and rumors are listed below, followed by a want list of what we want from this OnePlus 11 mobile phone. Let’s Start!

OnePlus 11 Pricing And Availability

According to history, the OnePlus 11 series will most likely be launched in the first few months of the next year. But, we hope, maybe we can see a big launch event like the OnePlus 10 launch event. In addition, It’s difficult to gauge the price. But according to leaks, we can make a good guess about the OnePlus 11’s price. So, we can expect costs around $899, £799, and roughly AU$ 1400 for the upcoming OnePlus 11 phone. We also predicted the price of the OnePlus 10T in 2022, starting at $649/£629, around AU$ 940. However, it is unclear whether the OnePlus 11 will follow or not.

OnePlus 11 Expected Features, Leaks, And Rumors

First of all, you have to keep in mind that there may only be one OnePlus 11 model, which according to a leak may be called the OnePlus 11. But with these specs, what could you expect from the OnePlus 11 Pro? Let’s have a look!

However, other early reports clearly mention the OnePlus 11 Pro. So, the naming remains a mystery. But according to rumors we are likely to get a Pro variant model, whether it has Pro in its name or not. So, it’s not clear, whether a lower-spec variant will be available or not, but according to the report, it does not seem likely. Whatever, the leaker @OnLeaks in partnership with Smartprix has revealed some of the OnePlus 11 Pro prototype features.

These features could have, one of which is shown below, reveal a new more circular camera block design. And you can also see that there is also Hasselblad branding and three sensors visible. It also includes an alert slider feature. And this phone will also use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, which we fully expected.

However, we are not sure about this leak. This is especially true given that these features are based on an early prototype of the OnePlus 11 Pro. So maybe it could be subject to change. As a result, it is possible that it will change.

As per the leaker reports, the phone is also said to pack a 16MP front camera, a triple-lens rear camera with a 50MP main sensor, a 48MP ultra-wide, and a 32MP telephoto that offers 2x optical zoom.

Recently, in another leak, the OnePlus 11 phone has again been said to have 16GB of RAM. In addition, the Oneplus 11 will have a ceramic finish look and upgraded UFS 4.0 storage. So, we can say it’s much faster than the UFS 3.1 technology that is used in the best phones of 2022. 

And also OnePlus has announced that its next upcoming device will get four major Android updates and 5 years of security patches. Also, The OnePlus 11 hasn’t been named, but it’s a clear candidate.

What Can Be Expected From This Upcoming Phone?

After testing the OnePlus 10 Pro and other smartphones from the company, as well as the larger Android world, here are some changes we would like to see in the OnePlus 11.

We Can See A Non-Pro version

We’d like to see at least two OnePlus 11 variations, and likely a third – be it a Lite, Ultra, or Pro Plus variant.

A Complicated Launch

When mobile phone manufacturers companies launch their devices with a lot of hype and joy, then it increased curiosity about mobile phones. But with the OnePlus 10 Pro, exactly the opposite happens. The OnePlus 10 Pro was first launched in January, but only for the Chinese market. But it is officially launched globally in February 2022 at MWC. Then, in April, there was another launching event followed by a market release. Therefore, the average customer was confused, and by the time it was available to buy, but then the OnePlus 10 Pro was old news. We want this whole process to be simplified in 2023 so that we don’t have to wait for months to buy the OnePlus 11.

Expect Better Charging equality

The OnePlus 10 Pro offered 80W fast charging, which allowed the smartphone to charge from 0% to 100% in 30 minutes. Unless you live in the United States. The OnePlus 10 Pro only has 65W power output, which is still fast but not as fast as the 80W power output. Hence, we wish the OnePlus 11 had the same charging speed so that users in the US don’t get a substandard phone.

Expect Better Zoom Camera

The OnePlus 10 Pro smartphone isn’t perfect for zoom photography. However, its 3.3x telephoto lens allows you to zoom in closer than other similarly priced competitors. So, we’d love to see pro devices that go 5x or perhaps 10x further. However, maybe the next coming phone can provide an “Ultra” feature.

This lens’ 8MP sensor isn’t great, and it’s also a little low-resolution for a smartphone camera. However, it limits the digital zoom capability beyond the optical limit. We expect that the OnePlus 11 zoom will provide a stronger focus on photography, allowing photographers to flourish.

We Can Expect a Smaller Alternative

The OnePlus 10 Pro is a large smartphone, which isn’t necessarily a downside. But this makes it difficult for people with small hands to hold the device. If the OnePlus 11 phones come with multiple versions, as we already wanted. That’s why we want to have a smaller device for users who don’t need a big beast. We have seen Xiaomi take this step with the Xiaomi 12, which offers a smaller phone than before. And Samsung has also done this. Hopefully, OnePlus will also follow this rule.
