OnePlus 10 Pro could launch in the UK next month
The OnePlus 10 Pro was released for the Chinese market just over a month ago. The flagship phone has been gaining rave review across the board, with some claiming OnePlus has returned to form.
OnePlus began private testing in Indian and European markets last month, hinting at an upcoming launch. Now according to 91mobiles, we can expect the OnePlus 10 Pro to hit the UK and other global markets in mid March.
The wait between launching globally and China is unusual from OnePlus, and is likely due to the recent supply chain issues that have hit the smartphone industry. With such high demand for the OnePlus 10 Pro, the company would not have been able to supply enough phones to meet consumer demand. Compared to the likes of Apple and Samsung, OnePlus are still a relatively small company, and won’t have priority when it comes to the supply chain.
There were rumours for an official launch date set to be unveiled during the announcement of the OnePlus Nord CE 2 5G event on 17th February, however no such news came to fruition.
The OnePlus 10 Pro is one of the first smartphones to ship with Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. As recently reported, the Samsung Galaxy S22 is struggling in terms of battery life due to power efficiency and thermal problems with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip. However, the OnePlus 10 Pro has a significantly larger 5000mAh battery, and has been able to avoid any reported battery life issues.
