Specifications
= Design =
The OnePlus 8T is similar to the OnePlus 8 externally, with an anodized aluminum frame and Gorilla Glass 5 panels. The display has a circular cutout for the front-facing camera. However, it is differentiated by its display glass, which is flat rather than curved. The back panel has a different camera module with a raised rectangular lens, split into two columns. The first contains three of the cameras, while the second contains the depth sensor, color temperature sensor and dual-LED flash. It is available in two finishes, Aquamarine Green (glossy) and Lunar Silver (matte).{{Citation needed|date=June 2023}}
= Hardware =
The OnePlus 8T is powered by the Snapdragon 865 5G processor with the Adreno 650 GPU, accompanied by 128 or 256 GB of non-expandable UFS 3.1 storage and 8 or 12 GB of LPDDR4X RAM. It has stereo speakers with active noise cancellation, but no audio jack. Biometric options include an optical (in-display) fingerprint scanner and facial recognition.{{Citation needed|date=June 2023}}
The display is a 6.55-inch 1080p AMOLED with a 20:9 aspect ratio and HDR10+ support, identical to the 8 aside from the refresh rate, which has been increased from 90 Hz to 120 Hz. The battery capacity is slightly larger than the 8 at 4500 mAh. Fast-charging is supported at up to 65 W via Warp Charge 65 compared to the 8's Warp Charge 30. This is enabled by a dual-cell design, with the battery split into two 2250 mAh cells.{{cite web |last1=Hildenbrand |first1=Jerry |title=You don't even have to buy the OnePlus 8T to get one of its best features |url=https://www.androidcentral.com/oneplus-warp-charge-65-great-no-matter-which-phone-you-use |website=Android Central |date=14 October 2020 |access-date=8 November 2020}} Like the OnePlus 8, wireless charging is not supported.

Reviewers generally felt the OnePlus 8T to be an incremental improvement from the OnePlus 8. The high-end model with 12 GB RAM and 256 GB UFS was criticized as being overpriced; being the only model sold in the US in contrast to other countries, some suggested that potential buyers there should consider other competing phones or those from OnePlus.
