While everyone’s eyes were in Samsung unpacked, Oneplus Coy dropped his own phone that did not exist, which suggests that Oneplus 9T could come this year after all.
Oneplus tweeted an artistic image of a oneplus 9 located in the tea and, with the cheeky humor of the signing of the brand, he added “Does not read too much about him”.
In any other year, this would not be too surprising: circa September or October, Oneplus is usually free of a ‘T’ version of that year’s badge with a few refinements, so it is time for a mockery of Oneplus 9T. Or it would be if a leak had not been affirmed that the 9T could be canceled.
Cancelled? In this pandemic?
Oneplus 9t would not be the first canceled phone in 2021: A Samsung executive confirmed that the Samsung Note 21 would not come out. Although we did not get an exact reason, Samsung’s CEO, DJ Koh, he said earlier in the year “could be a burden to reveal two badges models in a year, so it could be difficult to divide the note model into 2h “, which suggests the market would be too full with other Samsung flags.
There is also a matter of the overall impact of the shortage of chips in the technological industries, which led to the delays in last year’s phones as the Google Pixel 4A and part of the range of iPhone 12 and, the rumor has it, pushed the Liberation of Samsung Galaxy S21 faith.
In any case, ONEPLUS 9T would be a welcome vision if it is released later in the year, suggesting that it is the degree to which the smartphone industry is performed despite the continuous blockages and the shortage of chips. Of course, it’s another question completely how the 9T will land given the justified release (and cheapest) Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 along with the next Google Pixel 6 powered by its internal tensor chipset.
