2019 is going to be a BIG year for OnePlus. Chinese smartphone maker OnePlus generally launches two flagships every year. However, next year the scenario will be different. OnePlus already confirmed that it plans to continue the product revision cycle for six months. But the company is planning to launch three phones instead of two in 2019 and one out of them will be a 5G enabled device. So, we can expect the release of the OnePlus 7, OnePlus 7T along with another 5G phone.
Now, the original image of one of the three upcoming OnePlus phones surfaced online for the first time, revealing how the upcoming OnePlus phone will look a like.
EXCLUSIVE! Here's your first look at an upcoming OnePlus Device I don't know much about. This image shows the device in prototype/designing stage and it is not final but this is probably how the device may end up looking. That's Pete (CEO of OP) in the img and the device itself. pic.twitter.com/Yau9EsgSDy

The photo above shows a prototype of a device developed by a Chinese manufacturer, as well as the co-founder and CEO of OnePlus Pete Lau who’s handling one of those pre-production units.
Although, the leaked image does not reveal the specs of the device. But shows the color variants and a circular camera module on the back of the device with multiple image sensors and LED flash. The OnePlus camera setup in the leaked image looks very similar to the camera set up on the new Motorola phone.
The leaked image offers a closer look at the triple camera set up on the back panel and the missing fingerprint sensor. After switching to a dual camera setup with OnePlus 5 and 5T, the company ditched its initial horizontal alignment of the lens with the launch of OnePlus 6 and 6T. Moving to a larger, bulkier image module may indicate that the company will introduce more than two rear cameras in the upcoming phones.
