OnePlus is set to unveil a brand new lineup of smartphones called Ace in its largest market, China. There is also a strong possibility that OnePlus may launch the device in India as well. However, there is a very good chance that instead of launching a whole new line, the new device will be sold in India as the OnePlus 10R, a “mid-level” version of their flagship lineup.
The OnePlus Ace may be a whole new line for the Chinese market, but for India, it may be re-badged as the 10R.
The new OnePlus Ace will be officially available to buyers in China from April 21. Eagle-eyed users who have been paying close attention to OnePlus’ and recent developments in and around them have claimed that the new OnePlus Ace (or OnePlus 10R) is essentially a. Rebranded Realme GT Neo3.
The device will have to run the brand new MediaTek Dimensity 8100, and will have up to 12 GB of RAM. For storage, several leaks suggest that the base models of the phone will come with 128GB UFS 3.1 storage and 6GB RAM. All will be powered by a 4500 mAh battery, which will support a full 150W charger.
According to the leaked geekbench test report, The phone manages 962 single-core points and a 3,819 multi-core score.
For the rear camera, it will be a triple shooter setup with an 8MP Ultravide Snapper and a 2MP macro camera as well as a 50MP primary camera with OIS. The corrugated surface at the bottom of the camera housing gives it a unique look. The device looks especially good in black. Users will also have the option to visit the Silver Colorway.
Photos from the Chinese launch event indicate that the warning slider has been omitted. We also see an IR sensor on the top of the device.
One of the worrying aspects of OnePlus’s upcoming device is the apparent lack of a warning slider. Those who have been using OnePlus phones for some time now prefer this nifty little feature. However, it is highly unlikely that the omission of a warning slider would be a deal-breaker for most potential customers.
Although OnePlus has not revealed what the device will look like from the front, several previous leaks suggest that OnePlus is offering users a 6.7 “120Hz FullHD + AMOLED screen with a centralized punch-hole, which will feature a 16MP front shooter.
Photos from the OnePlus Ace’s Chinese launch event suggest that the phone be equipped with an IR sensor at the top. However, if the OnePlus Ace comes to India as the OnePlus 10R, most likely the sensor may be omitted.
