The OnePlus 10T was just released on the global market by OnePlus, and as is customary, the gadget was put to the test of endurance by well-known Youtuber JerryRigEverything. The device, as we already know, broke in half during the bend test, just as the OnePlus 10 Pro.
Given that the test called into question the structural toughness of the gadget, we can only guess that this has been a major PR nightmare for OnePlus. Finally, the company has released a statement addressing the problem.
The OnePlus 10T "meets or exceeds all of OnePlus' thorough durability testing processes," according to OnePlus. This includes a pressure test in which the device is hung and weight is applied to its centre on both its front and back. In this test at OnePlus' lab, the OnePlus 10T's improved structural engineering design was able to support over 45 kg of external stress.
The OnePlus website states, "When designing, engineering, and producing OnePlus devices, we ensure they not only offer a beautiful and unobtrusive design but also are sturdy so they can sustain daily usage."Chinese brand added.
Numerous statements suggest that OnePlus is still unwilling to acknowledge any shortcomings in the new camera design, which has been the source of these malfunctions. It is important to note that JerryRigEverything's bend test was designed to show extreme circumstances; a typical user is unlikely to bend their smartphone with such power.
However, it is evident that OnePlus lags below its rivals in terms of structural toughness. With its following flagship series of smartphones, the company should address these problems. Users of the OnePlus 10T and 10 Pro are advised to utilise their devices with a back cover on until that time.
