The OnePlus T series is making a comeback with the OnePlus 10T. Rumors surrounding the 10T have been rampant, but now, OnePlus is finally ready to reveal the smartphone in full during a New York-based launch event. The event is scheduled for August 3, and we can expect to finally get confirmation on the smartphone’s full specs. While there are a handful of things we do know, there are still a lot of mysteries surrounding the device.

OnePlus did confirm that the 10T will be running on the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 processor. That’s a nice step forward for the 10T as it’s Qualcomm’s latest chipset, although it’s likely to be outclassed later this year when the rumored Gen 2 gets revealed. Nonetheless, it puts the 10T in a place to be OnePlus’ fastest flagship.

Rumor has it that the OnePlus 10T will feature three camera lenses: a 50-megapixel main lens, an 8MP ultrawide, and a 2MP macro. Its 6.7-inch display is claimed to support a dynamic refresh rate that hits up to 120Hz. Add in rumors of 150-watt super fast charging and the 10T could be one of the best smartphones for the second half of 2022.

Luckily, the OnePlus 10T isn’t just launching with excellent specs, but also with a major OS update. Also scheduled to be revealed on August 3, OnePlus will be launching OxygenOS 13 alongside the 10T. The new OS update will be the most customizable version of the software yet while still bringing the features fans have come to expect from OnePlus devices (such as the always-on-display and Zen modes).

If OxygenOS 13 is able to be on par with Google’s ‘normal’ Android 13 update and iOS 16, then the OnePlus 10T could be a big hit. That said, there are still far too many questions about the smartphone to be able to say for certain. Luckily, answers will be coming soon.

The OnePlus 10T and OxygenOS 13 reveal event will happen in New York City on August 3, 2022. The event kicks off at 10 a.m. ET/7 a.m. PT for those watching at home.

Qualcomm says Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 isn’t overheating, despite Galaxy S27 Ultra rumours
The company says the reports are inaccurate, but Samsung's alleged concerns about sustained performance aren't going away just yet.

Qualcomm isn't taking kindly to reports that its next flagship smartphone chip is running too hot for Samsung's liking. The company has dismissed claims that the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 is overheating during internal testing for the Galaxy S27 Ultra, calling the reports inaccurate. The denial comes just a day after reports suggested Samsung could ditch Qualcomm's chip in favour of its own Exynos 2700.

Apple is tightening its App Store rules to crack down on AI nudify apps that generate sexually explicit images of real people without their consent. The updated guidelines require developers to proactively prevent and remove nonconsensual intimate imagery, including content generated using AI tools. The move comes months after San Francisco officials demanded that Apple and Google remove such apps. Now, Apple is making its expectations clearer, including what happens when developers try to sneak harmful features past its review process.

Apple wants developers to do more than simply ban nudify features

The Xteink e-reader didn’t make sense to me until I did this one thing
I replaced the stock firmware on my Xteink X4 and finally got the typography, customization, and reading stats I wanted.
CrossInk running on Xteink X4

I got my hands on the Xteink X4 a few weeks back, and I was really excited. But as soon as I started using it, I realized the reading experience wasn't that great. The font rendering was poor, the line and word spacing was haphazard, and I couldn't customize much of anything.

Don't get me wrong, the stock firmware has received several updates over the past few months. Many of its issues are gone, and some things, like sleep and wake time, are way better now. Still, something was missing, and I kept leaving the X4 on my desk instead of reading on it.
