OnePlus executive teases an unnamed phone, suspected to be the OnePlus 7
The 5G enabled OnePlus phone is apparently going to a part of an entirely new lineup bu the company.

We already know that OnePlus will release a 5G-enabled phone next year. Now, Ard Boudeling, an executive of social media at OnePlus has released an image on Twitter of an unnamed OnePlus device teasing "Peekaboo." Rumour has it that this is indeed the OnePlus 7.However, there is no word for sure whether this is the OnePlus 7 or a variant of the OnePlus 6T. Why would someone "peekaboo" the whole damn phone? There is a possibility that Boudeling is hinting at something else. This is where the news about the new lineup comes in.While many believed that the 5G enabled phone would be the OnePlus 6T (read our full review here) successor, if we go by the online reports, OnePlus 7 may be it, and it will be a whole new line up altogether.According to a report by CNET, a OnePlus spokesperson told the publication that the OnePlus 6T successor, possibly the OnePlus 7, will not be enabled with 5G. However, since the company has confirmed that a 5G device will be released, it looks like the device might be part of a new line up by OnePlus.Yeah, we are confused too![caption id="attachment_5541801" align="alignnone" width="1280"]![Rumoured to be the OnePlus 7.
