The report mension that OnePlus 10 Ultra may get a secondary display next to the periscope lens. It appears to be too small for selfies, as seen on the Xiaomi 11 Ultra, but it is expected to have other users. Because the drawings are not very detailed, it is also possible that it is not a secondary display. According to the sketches, the rest of the OnePlus 10 Ultra design is very similar to the OnePlus 10 Pro.
