The iconic mute slider is also missing from the device as seen in the images, this will be the first flagship device from the company to not feature it.

The upcoming mobile will not be the best camera performer from OnePlus, nor will it be a slouch with the 50 MP SONY IMX766 sensor for the primary camera. Besides the primary, the OnePlus 10T is expected to come with an underwhelming 8 or 16 MP ultrawide camera and a 2 MP macro shooter.
