OnePlus 4 has been teased already but before the handset's rumored release date the OnePlus 3T will unveil first and likely as early as November 14. And when unpacked, the flagship killer will boast of Qualcomm's Snapdragon 821 with the sticker price no more than $500.

Thanks to Qualcomm, an upcoming OnePlus rollout is no longer a rumor as the giant chipmaker that another flagship killer from Carl Pei is coming out soon. The company's tweet did not mention a specific label but the consensus is the SD 821-powered device will be called OnePlus 3T.

While speculations are rife that the OnePlus 4 is already in the works it is likely that Android fans will have to wait for the device a bit more. Per Qualcomm, the next OnePlus release is on Snapdragon 821 and since the OP4 is believed to be on the next-gen SD 830 chip then the soon to touchdown device has to be the OnePlus 3T.

What to expect? The 3T on SD 821 is likely supported by up to 6GB of RAM or the same as the OP3. And like its immediate predecessor, the OnePlus 3T will be housed in a mix of metal (specifically of aluminum framing) and glass. The front panel is certainly made of AMOLED as Pei has already affirmed that in spite of the reports that the material is in short supply the 3T will stick to it.

As for the pricing, Techno Buffalo said that the cash damage of getting the OP3T will likely start at $480, which is in line with the recent report that the device maker is forced to increase the sticker price by $80 no thanks to the expensive OLED. And the possibility is there that that 3T will get a significant bump in internal storage - the basic model is likely to sport a 128GB memory though 64GB remains in the cards.

As for the actual OnePlus 3T release date, the company is expected to host an event on November 14 to introduce the next flagship killer but it remains unclear if the device availability will happen on the same day or in next few weeks.
