OnePlus 11 Pro leaked renders hint at return of alert slider, redesigned camera setup

Tech giant OnePlus is currently working on its much anticipated smartphone series, the OnePlus 11. While there's not much known about the upcoming phone, however, leaked renders of the OnePlus 11 Pro have appeared online which give an idea about the design.

The leaked renders show off an early prototype for the OnePlus 11 Pro revealing details about its front display format and rear design. Going by the images shared by Smartpix in collaboration with OnLeaks, we see a circular camera module at the rear which looks quite similar to the one on the Xiaomi 12S Ultra.

The company had opted for a square shape camera design for the OnePlus 10 Pro. So it's fair to say that OnePlus likes to experiment with its designs for housing the camera. The Chinese tech company had previously flaunted circular camera housing on the OnePlus 7T.

At the front, we see a curved display with a punch-hole to house the selfie camera on the OnePlus 11 Pro. If the renders of the upcoming OnePlus smartphone are accurate, then we might get to see a Hasselblad-endorsed camera on the 11 Pro.

The Hasselblad was missing from recently launched OnePlus 10T, so it'll be interesting to see the collaboration between OnePlus and the Swedish camera manufacturer on the upcoming smartphone, which also could be their last.

The leaked renders, which are making the rounds on Twitter, also hint at the return of the beloved alert slider. OnePlus had earlier promised to bring back the alert slider on its future devices after it went missing on the OnePlus 10T. However, it's still not confirmed if the alert slider would be restricted to only the OnePlus 11 Pro models or whether the vanilla version features it or not.

OnePlus Technology, which is majorly owned by Oppo, a subsidiary of BBK Eletronics along with Realme, Vivo and iQOO, plans to launch the much-anticipated OnePlus 11 Pro series next year.
