OnePlus 6T vs T-Mobile OnePlus 6T
There are two versions of the OnePlus 6T: the worldwide, unlocked model you buy directly from OnePlus and the T-Mobile exclusive variant. Both devices look the same and feature the same hardware specs, but there are some prominent differences.
| T-Mobile | Unlocked | |
|---|---|---|
| Dual SIM Card | No | Yes |
| Carrier Locked | Yes | No |
| Bootloader Unlock | Yes (per T-Mobile guidelines) | Yes |
| Software Updates Source | T-Mobile | OnePlus |
| Pre-Installed Apps | T-Mobile + OnePlus apps | OnePlus apps |
T-Mobile is rolling out its first OnePlus 6T update. Android Police marked the upgrade, which comes with build number A6013_34_181029, over the weekend, but T-Mobile has yet to add it to its own updates page.
The new software advances the Nightscape camera mode, which helps the 6T shoot in low-light, and the screen unlocks — optimizations seen in the Oxygen v9.0.4 update OnePlus rolled out at the end of October. The in-display fingerprint sensor algorithm has also remained updated, though we don’t know precisely in which way (presumably surges speed and/or accuracy).
The T-Mobile update contains the November security patches too, along with a new quick switch gesture in Gesture Mode 2.0. The software leftovers on OxygenOS 9.0.0 for now, despite the combination of the aforementioned 9.0.4 elements.
Based on this rollout, it looks like T-Mobile OnePlus 6T updates might follow two-to-three weeks behind the unlocked ones. Consult the table under to see the up-to-date available OxygenOS versions for the unlocked and T-Mobile variants:
