• OnePlus rescheduled its OnePlus 6T smartphone announcement event because Apple recently announced it’s hosting an event on the same day. 
• OnePlus’ launch event is now taking place one day earlier, on October 29, at the same venue as originally planned. 
• The company says it will cover the costs of travel changes and tickets for those who aren’t able to make the new date. 

OnePlus was all set to unveil its new OnePlus 6T smartphone on October 30 in New York City, but then Apple decided to steal the spotlight.

The Mac maker this week announced its own Fall event to be held on October 30, and now OnePlus has rescheduled its event as a result.
