It's barely a week since the OnePlus 6T Thunder Purple made its debut in China and now the company is planning to bring it to other regions.

OnePlus confirmed the news on its official Twitter handle and that the gorgeous violet-hued OnePlus 6T will be making its way to several international markets soon. Even the local Indian handle has teased the new variant that will be made available in the subcontinent. But, the question is when?

If previous release launch pattern is taken as any indication, OnePlus is expected to release the OnePlus 6T Thunder Purple global variant probably by the end of November or early December just in time of Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday season.

The new OnePlus 6T Thunder Purple looks stunning from the back. The glass-and-metal blended shell makes the device reflect multiple violet shades from dark to light when looked from different angles. It is one of the most visually appealing marquee phones in the market.
