Description:
The OnePlus 10 Pro is hitting stores soon and we now have a better idea of when, among other new details.
FULL STORY ======================================================================
Its MWC 2022 week, and there have been numerous announcements, including the announcement of the flagship Honor Magic 4 range , the Huawei MatePad Paper , and the global launch of the OnePlus 10 Pro .
Its that last announcement that were focused on here, and if youve been keeping up with tech news then you might be thinking you already knew everything about the OnePlus 10 Pro. After all, it was announced for China back in January, but there are a few additional details that weve now
learned.
These include the all-important release date, along with two other quite
large nuggets of news, full details of which youll find below. 1. It will
land in March The OnePlus 10 Pro will be widely available soon (Image credit: OnePlus)
When the OnePlus 10 Pro was announced for China, it didnt come with a release date for the rest of the world, but now we have one or at least a release month.
OnePlus has confirmed that the OnePlus 10 Pro will hit stores in North America, Europe, and India in March, but the company hasnt yet provided an exact date. Still, theres not long to wait now, and wed expect the actual
date will be revealed soon.
Note that those in Australia wont be getting the OnePlus 10 Pro, as the brand doesnt currently sell its phones there. 2. It wont be joined by a OnePlus 10
We always assumed that eventually wed see a standard OnePlus 10 to go alongside the OnePlus 10 Pro. It makes sense after all OnePlus typically launches two models, and the Pro name implies that there should be a non-Pro version too (otherwise it could just be called the OnePlus 10).
But despite all that, the company has revealed that there wont be a OnePlus
10 . This is the first time the company has only launched one flagship model (not including the T entries) since 2018.
Still, confusing name aside it sort of makes sense, as OnePlus has gone from only making a few phones to making loads, so while there wont be a OnePlus
10, there are lots of other OnePlus options. 3. It wont switch to Oppos ColorOS A OnePlus phone running OxygenOS 11 (Image credit: OnePlus)
This one isnt so much new information as a change in direction, as OnePlus
has backtracked on its plans to use Oppos ColorOS operating system on its smartphones.
Oppo now owns OnePlus, so using ColorOS would make sense in some ways, but fans are, well, fans of OnePlus' OxygenOS, so they werent happy with this plan. As a result, OnePlus has confirmed that it will instead be sticking
with OxygenOS, so the OnePlus 10 Pro will arrive running OxygenOS 12.1.
That said, going forward the two operating systems will share a code base, so OxygenOS may start feeling more like ColorOS even if it doesnt take the name. An upcoming OnePlus phone will get wildly fast charging, and it's coming soon
