OnePlus is announcing its new OnePlus 7 smartphones, including the OnePlus 7 Pro, on May 14.

The OnePlus 7 smartphones will be the successors to the company's OnePlus 6T smartphones that were released in November 2018.

The OnePlus 7 is expected to come with more incremental updates over the OnePlus 6T, while the OnePlus 7 Pro will come with more premium features, like a special display that OnePlus CEO Pete Lau says is "super smooth" and "very crisp." It'll also come with 5G connectivity.

This is the first time that OnePlus will launch two different smartphone variants with differing features.

The company is hosting events in four different countries:

Pier 94, New York 11 a.m. EDT on May 14
Printworks, London 4 a.m. BST on May 14
BIEC, Bangalore, India 8:15 p.m. IST on May 14
Yanqi Lake, Beijing 2 p.m. PST on May 16

Tickets sales for the events will start on April 25 from OnePlus's website at 11 a.m, where early bird tickets will cost $20. Early bird ticket sales will last for 48 hours, after which standard and "Plus One" tickets will be sold. OnePlus did not list the price for regular ticket sales.
