OnePlus 10 Pro

OnePlus responds to 10T's durability test failure

Last week, YouTuber Zack from JerryRigEverything put the OnePlus 10T through his durability test to see if it would fare better than the OnePlus 10 Pro which snapped in his bend test. Well, it didn't, as it ultimately cracked from the same spot as the 10 Pro when pressure was applied. This raised concerns about the 10T's structural durability, and OnePlus has released a statement to address those.

OnePlus said, "The OnePlus 10T meets or exceeds all of OnePlus' extensive durability testing procedures, this includes a pressure test where the device is suspended while weight is applied to its centre on both its front and back. The OnePlus 10T has an enhanced structure engineering design and can bear over 45kg of external force in this test at OnePlus' lab."

"When designing, engineering, and manufacturing OnePlus devices, we ensure they not only offer a design that is beautiful and burdenless but is also durable so they can withstand everyday usage," the Chinese brand added.

 
OnePlus is dropping the "Pro" from its flagship line, 11 Pro becomes 11

According to two separate and reliable tipsters, OnePlus is planning to drop the "Pro" from its next flagship series. This in turn means that the upcoming top-shelf phone from the company will be called OnePlus 11.

If the information turns out to be true, one would assume that OnePlus is also looking into the option of streamlining its flagship series as a whole. The core flagship series will get no more than two models in the first half of the year with a potential "T" upgrade in the second half. That hasn't been the case since 2018 and the OnePlus 6.

Well...they can just drop the whole phone, it has lost it's appeal.
