Early OnePlus 7 Leaked Image Hints Towards Slider Design Similar to the Oppo Find X

The Chinese manufacturer’s next release, the OnePlus 7 was spotted in a new leak in China. The phone was seen protected in some sort of casing to hide most of the design and aesthetic, and it was seen positioned beside the predecessor of this phone, the OnePlus 6T. However, even with the protective casing of the device, there are some things that we have been able to identify. There is undoubtedly no display notch on the OnePlus 7 this time. Instead, the phone appears to be sporting a sliding mechanism. Also, a lot of people expected that the OnePlus 7 would get the punch-hole style cut for housing the front camera, but even that seems to have been ditched by the Chinese OEM.

Likely to Have Thinner Bezels and Slider

The leaked image first appeared on CoolAPK but was since deleted. However, a Slashleak contributor spotted the picture before it was deleted. In the leaked image, we get to see the OnePlus 7 kept beside the OnePlus 6T and both are held in a protective casing. The first thing to notice in the OnePlus 7 is the earpiece grille which seems to be similar to the one present on the OnePlus 6T. The protective casing does hide the bezels and the edges of the phone so, there no solid hint about how thin the bezels on the OnePlus 7 are going to be. Also, while the OnePlus 6T can be seen fashioning the waterdrop notch, the OnePlus 7’s screen stretches all the way to the top giving no sign of a notch. Interestingly, there is a cut-out on the protective casing above the OnePlus 7’s top edge hinting towards a slider mechanism which when slid up will fill up the currently empty space on the case.
