We learnt yesterday, courtesy OnePlus, that the OnePlus 3T will launch on the 15th of this month. What we know so far is that it’ll pretty much be the same awesome OnePlus 3 but with a Snapdragon 821 processor instead of the 820.

However, there’s more to it, apparently…

Will the OnePlus 3T have not 6GB, but 8GB of RAM?

Gizmodo reports that there’s a likelihood of the OnePlus 3 being the first phone on the market to have not 6GB, but 8GB of RAM!

Quite insane, to be honest. While it was nice and all to be spoilt with a lot of RAM on the OnePlus 3, 8GB certainly seems like an overkill. And it’s not like OnePlus phones have a 2-3 year lifecycle; they’ve been refreshing their flagship lineup each year.

So what does this mean? As far as we’re concerned, it could be one of those rumours those end as rumours. 8GB of RAM might give OnePlus some more footage in the media, but at the cost of a more expensive product with some resources that users might not even need.

Besides RAM, there’s another aspect of the phone that might see an upgrade — battery. OnePlus might just beef up the cell to a 3500-4000mAh capacity, and unlike 8GB of RAM, I’m pretty sure no one’s going to complain about this.
