OnePlus 6T to Come With a ‘Waterdrop’ Notch? – OnePlus Waterdrop Test Story

Here comes to another news about OnePlus 6T. OnePlus Waterdrop Test story hints the upcoming OnePlus 6T with waterdrop notch design. Yes, you read it right. The company has shared yet another interesting behind-the-scenes detail of an upcoming device that includes the ‘waterdrop test’.

According to OnePlus Product Manager Vito L., Jade T. – one of the industrial designers at OnePlus – was involved in the designing of the OnePlus 6 mirror black model. The designer shared a test they performed while designing the variant – it’s called the Waterdrop Test.

The deliberately coordinated story of the waterdrop notch insights towards a conceivable circumstance where the upcoming OnePlus 6T gets a waterdrop notch. For the unconscious, waterdrop indent a major trend in today’s smartphones. It made its entrance with the release of the Oppo F9 Pro.

Here’s how the designer Vito explained it:

Here’s how it works: take a single drop of water and apply it to the back of the OnePlus 6 Mirror Black. Now take another drop of water and apply it to a non-absorbent surface (the surface of your desk, on a dinner plate, etc.). Notice the size of the waterdrop. Is it flat like a frisbee? Or does it bead like a marble? The difference, as Jade explained, comes down to the “wettability” of the surface.

As for the significance of this test, Vito said:

Just close your eyes and run your fingers over the Mirror Black surface – the smoothness gives you that extra-premium hand feel, while the subtle curve and rigidity makes the phone easier to hold and more resilient to impact. Jade conducted the water test on over 100 Mirror Black prototypes before selecting the one you see today

Other information about the OnePlus 6T have yet to be revealed, but it will likely to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor again, along with minimum 6GB of RAM and 64GB of onboard storage.
