OnePlus is spending 3 times more on OnePlus 7 Pro’s display than previous models: Pete Lau

If you are one of those who thought OnePlus 6 and 6T’s lacked a bit of lustre, you are in luck. OnePlus CEO Pete Lau in an interview with TheVerge said that the company’s upcoming flagship will have “a whole new display which has to be seen to be believed”.

TheVerge quoted Lau saying that OnePlus is spending three times as much on its display this year than on previous models, expecting this new panel to “redefine fast and smooth” and set a new benchmark for mobile displays.

OnePlus is widely expected to launch two flagships this year—the OnePlus 7 and OnePlus 7 Pro. While the OnePlus 7 is expected to be a direct successor to the OnePlus 6 and 6T, the OnePlus 7 Pro might be launched with a premium price tag matching that of Samsung and Apple flagships. OnePlus still hasn’t mentioned the launch date of its newest devices.
