The 11R is rumored to launch touted as the “community-designed” member of OnePlus‘ premium Android smartphone line-up for 2023. This may entail the inclusion of fan-favorite specs such as an IR blaster, not to mention the brand’s signature Alert Slider.

Now, Yogesh Brar presumes to elaborate on these rumors by comparing this supposed device with the Reno9 Pro+ from OnePlus parent company OPPO. This just might give the 11R 50+8+2MP rear cameras, enhanced with both OIS and PDAF, albeit with a camera hump from the updated 11 rather than one loosely based on that of the 10 Pro.

The latter detail just might be borne out in new live images thought to display the 11R in a pre-production shell. Despite this alleged attempt to retain confidentiality, the device demonstrably lacks a Reno-like camera hump, although it does have a curved display with the rumored switch to a 1.5K resolution to go with a central punch-hole for its very possibly 32MP selfie camera.

Finally, the device does seem to have an Alert Slider, and is now also said to have same updated charging specs as the 11. Presuming all these R-variant leaks hold true, the resulting upper-tier smartphone may launch in markets such as India in early to mid-2023, and, just possibly, in China as the Ace 2.

I became a professional writer and editor shortly after graduation. My degrees are in biomedical sciences; however, they led to some experience in the biotech area, which convinced me of its potential to revolutionize our health, environment and lives in general. This developed into an all-consuming interest in more aspects of tech over time: I can never write enough on the latest electronics, gadgets and innovations. My other interests include imaging, astronomy, and streaming all the things. Oh, and coffee.
