It's almost the turn of the year which means that a new smartphone cycle is nearly upon us. One of the first flagship smartphones to launch in 2023 will be the OnePlus 11 5G which will be announced globally on February 7th during an event held in New Delhi, India. Following on the OnePlus 11 5G's coattails will be a number of other devices, including the OnePlus Buds Pro 2.
OnePlus is calling the event “OnePlus Cloud 11 Launch Event” with the “Cloud 11” portion referring to the upgraded technology and performance of the new products being unveiled.
As we've covered previously, the OnePlus 11 5G will once again feature Hasselblad-tuned cameras and the alert slider that was much missed on the OnePlus 10T. Originally known as the OnePlus 11 Pro, the OnePlus 11 5G is expected to be powered by Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and will be the first device from the brand that will receive 4 major OS updates and security patches for 5 years.
According to previous rumors, the OnePlus 11 5G could feature up to 16GB of RAM, a 6.7-inch QHD+ AMOLED display, and a trio of Hasselblad-tuned cameras consisting of a 50MP main sensor with 48MP and 32MP secondary cameras. We fully expect the OnePlus 11 5G to launch running OxygenOS 13 out of the box.
Given what we already know about the OnePlus 11 5G and its design, what are your thoughts on the upcoming flagship smartphone?
