Like every year, OnePlus will launch a new high-end smartphone in a few months, the OnePlus 11 Pro. Before its official launch, we already know all about the design, which promises to be slightly different from its predecessor.
As usual, the leaker OnLeaks has lifted the veil on the design of the next premium smartphone from the Chinese manufacturer OnePlus. As we can see from the different renderings, the OnePlus 11 Pro is inspired by the appearance of its predecessor, the OnePlus 10 Pro, but above all will stand out thanks to a circular photo module.
While we were treated to a square photo module last year, OnePlus will bet on a rounder shape this year, but the smartphone will still retain three cameras on the back, as well as a flash. Speaking of these, we also note thatnone of the sensors look like a periscope, which could indicate that OnePlus is still going to be quite behind its competitors in this area. However, we know that the manufacturer had filed a patent application for a device with a periscopic sensor, but therefore it does not seem to be this new OnePlus 11 Pro.
The photo part will always be signed Hasselblad on the OnePlus 11 Pro
In the middle of the sensors on the back, we still find the Hasselblad logo, OnePlus’ partner on the photo part. This is the third and final year that the Chinese manufacturer will collaborate with the Swedish camera company, but this partnership may well be extended in the future.
On the side of the smartphone, we also notice the return of the alert slider, which was dropped on the previous OnePlus 10T. Its presence is good news, since it is one of the only features that makes OnePlus smartphones stand out from its rivals.
On the front, it can be noted that the screen seems much less curved than the current generation, which could allow the manufacturer to reduce the size of the borders all around. Finally, we hope that this new general design will allow the device to be more resistant than the previous model, which unfortunately did not pass the durability test of JerryRigEverything.
