OnePlus 11 Pro: leaks indicate return of partnership with Hasselblad and Snapdragon 8 Gen 2

Update (09/12/2022) – EB

Last week we saw that the next mobile from OnePlus should be one of the first in the world with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Today new information about this device is arriving through the collaboration between the portal Smartprix and OnLeaks. Both report big news for the OnePlus 11 Pro, which should have cameras created in collaboration with Hasselblad.

According to today’s sources, the OnePlus 11 Pro should be announced at the beginning of 2023 or even have an early debut for the end of 2022, if the company intends to increase sales of the top of the line with the Christmas offers.

In addition, the leaked images still show that this model should mark the return of the collaboration with Hasselblad, which was interrupted with the OnePlus 10T.

Other details revealed by the renders also include a circular rear module with 3 cameras, rounded edges and a hole in the upper left corner to house the front camera.

We also noticed that the OnePlus 11 Pro should mark the return of the slider to volume mode, which should certainly please users who criticized the removal of this component on the OnePlus 10T.

Anyway, it’s worth remembering that these are the first leaked images of the smartphone, so we expect more information to be revealed in the coming weeks or months to confirm or disprove today’s details.
