OnePlus 6T, the upcoming smartphone by the firm that recently got confirmed by the company and a listing on Amazon India, has gone through several leaks ever since the OnePlus 6 launch. The smartphone, going by the history of ‘T’ line up of handsets, should come as an update over the OnePlus 6 instead of being a completely new smartphone. Out of the all the claims, one of the speculations that have been making rounds on the web is that the smartphone will feature triple rear cameras or a pop-up camera mechanism. It has been reported that since OnePlus’ sister companies, Oppo and Vivo have an elevated camera setup, OnePlus too may share the same production lines and get a similar camera. But that might not be the case.
