OnePlus has been rumoured to be working on a new phone that will sit beside the OnePlus 15 and the OnePlus Ace 6 (OnePlus 15R). The purported handset is allegedly called the OnePlus Turbo. According to a report, it will be powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, which is expected to be announced by Qualcomm soon. The handset is said to come with a battery larger than any OnePlus smartphone to date.
According to a SmartPrix report, the OnePlus Turbo is already being tested in India. If the company's plans align, it will reportedly be launched in the country within the next two months. However, its official launch date remains under wraps.
The purported OnePlus smartphone is reportedly internally codenamed “Macan”. It is expected to debut as the OnePlus Turbo. It will be a purely performance-focused model, equipped with a high refresh rate screen and a powerful chipset.
The OnePlus Turbo is expected to sport a 6.7-inch OLED screen with a 1.5K resolution and a 165Hz refresh rate. For context, the upcoming OnePlus Ace 6 is also confirmed to feature a similar display.
Powering the OnePlus Turbo will reportedly be a Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset. It was expected to be unveiled alongside the new Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC at the Snapdragon Summit last month, but it remains unannounced. As per the report, the chip will be complemented by a “Glacier Cooling System” that will manage the thermals and help cool down the handset quickly.
For optics, the purported OnePlus Turbo could sport a dual rear camera unit, comprising a 50-megapixel main sensor and an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle shooter. It is also said to have a 32-megapixel front-facing camera for selfies and video calls.
Further, the handset is reported to feature an X-axis linear motor for haptics, stereo speakers, NFC, and an in-display fingerprint sensor. As per the report, it may pack an 8,000mAh battery — the biggest one on any OnePlus smartphone to date. It could be accompanied by 100W fast charging support.
