OnePlus is preparing to launch the OnePlus 16, a device positioned as an all-around performance flagship. Leaks from Digital Chat Station on Weibo reveal significant hardware upgrades for the upcoming smartphone. The device aims to deliver high-end specifications across its core components.
Rumors suggest potential regional scaling back of operations.
The smartphone will reportedly run on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro chipset. This processor utilizes a 2nm manufacturing node and supports LPDDR6 memory. The camera system features a major upgrade with a 200MP telephoto lens. This marks a substantial increase from the 50MP sensor found in the OnePlus 15.
The display is expected to be a flat panel developed by BOE with a maximum refresh rate of 240Hz. Battery capacity is rumored to reach up to 9,000mAh, a notable jump from the 7,300mAh unit in the previous generation. The phone retains the Plus Key for quick AI access and includes symmetrical dual speakers. It also features an X-axis motor and full-level water resistance.
Rumors suggest that OnePlus may scale back operations in certain regions. This raises questions about whether the device will receive a wide global release or remain limited to select markets. The exact battery capacity remains unconfirmed as the leak points to a maximum potential figure rather than a fixed specification.
