This is not the first time OnePlus has hosted a competition or challenge. Back in June, the company announced the 'OnePlus Asphalt Cup' in India where participants played Asphalt 8: Airborne and competed for a combined cash prize worth Rs 9 lakhs, along with the OnePlus 6 smartphones and Bullets Wireless Bluetooth earphones. This challenge was limited to OnePlus users in India, but the new Crackables challenge seems to be a global event.

As we mentioned earlier, the company has confirmed the presence of an in-display fingerprint sensor on its upcoming device. The company could also be planning to launch new Bullets Wireless earphones with the OnePlus 6T as a OnePlus headphone with the model number BT32B recently showed up on FCC. The alleged OnePlus 6T was recently leaked in images on Weibo, hinting at a waterdrop notch display and a triple rear-camera setup.
