The phone’s model with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage is now available at Rs 43,999 instead of its previous selling price of Rs 47,999. Considering that the OnePlus 8 series is slightly more expensive if you were planning on picking up last year’s flagship model from OnePlus, you will now be able to pick it up for Rs 4,000 less, which is definitely a good deal. To recall some of the main specs, the OnePlus 7T Pro comes with a notch-less 6.67-inch QHD+ Fluid AMOLED display with 90Hz refresh rate.
