OnePlus 10 Pro with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, Hasselblad camera teased in Volcanic Black and Emerald Forest colors ahead of launch on Jan 11

Update: January 4th, 2022 – OnePlus CEO has official posted the promo, after the leak last week. This also shows the Hasselblad camera, and the tag line ‘Capture Every Horizon’.

It also shows the phone in Volcanic Black and Emerald Forest colors in matte finish.

Regarding the colours, OnePlus said:

Gaze at the Volcanic Black finish, and you’ll feel pulled into an endless sea of sand dunes under the moonlit sky, with special micro-crystals reminding you of the glittering grains of sand. Through faint light and a shadow gradation effect, the illusion feels more than just skin deep and feels incredibly smooth in your hand. Its black surface quietly screams to be touched.

Emerald Forest features our signature anti-glare glass on its rear that, just like Volcanic Black, is resistant to fingerprints for a look that remains stunning no matter how long you hold the OnePlus 10 Pro. The glass has been etched to create a finish that sparkles when viewed from different angles, mimicking the first ray of the morning sun as it transforms the suspended dew into shimmering crystals.

Update: December 27, 2021 – OnePlus has started taking pre-registrations for the OnePlus 10 Pro through online platforms in China from today, ahead of pre-orders on January 4th from 10AM. The OnePlus CEO already confirmed that the phone will launch in January.

Last week, OnePlus CEO said that the phone will use industry-leading LTPO 2.0 display that will offer a smooth experience, and OnePlus will continue to work with  Samsung Display. Jd.com has posted a teaser of the smartphone, but the full official render is not revealed yet.

Earlier: OnePlus CEO Pete Lau has confirmed the launch of OnePlus 10 Pro in January. Even though he has confirmed it on weibo, based on earlier rumours, global launch is expected only in April. We already know that the phone will be powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen1 SoC.

Renders of the phone surfaced last month showing off the phone 6.7-inch curved Quad HD+ AMOLED LTPO screen with 120Hz refresh rate. It also showed Hasselblad branding, and a new rear camera setup.

Even though earlier rumours said that the phone will come with 125W charging, leaker Digital Chat Station says that the phone will feature a 80W wired fast charging compared to 65W in the predecessor, but it will retain the 50W wireless fast charging.
