Yesterday, we brought to you the first 5K renders of the upcoming OnePlus 6T, revealing some of the key design features of the smartphone. The renders confirmed that the next OnePlus flagship handset will have a tiny waterdrop notch at the top and lack a 3.5mm headphone jack. While the design of the OnePlus 6T has been fully revealed now, some of its hardware specifications still remain a mystery. As we mentioned in our report, the OnePlus 6T will be thicker than the OnePlus 6, which suggests that it might pack a larger battery. A purported image of the smartphone’s battery has now leaked online, revealing a decent increase in capacity.

OnePlus 6T: New Leak Reveals 3700mAh Battery Capacity

The leaked image reveals the OnePlus 6T battery bears the model number BLP68S and has a typical capacity of 3700mAh. Its rated capacity, on the other hand, is 3610mAh. Interestingly, the OPPO R17 Pro also features an identical-sized battery. It was recently rumored that the OnePlus 6T will be based on the OPPO R17 Pro, so this is certainly not surprising. The current OnePlus 6 has a 3300mAh capacity battery but it still manages to provide impressive battery life. Thanks to the larger battery, we expect the OnePlus 6T to be even better in terms of battery life.
