After OnePlus officially announced today that its OnePlus Ace 2V will be launched on March 7 in China, the brand quickly shared some teasers regarding the upcoming device’s premium build quality.
OnePlus posted on its official Chinese Weibo account today stating that it looks to forever change the mid-range smartphone market, as the upcoming OnePlus Ace 2V will be the brand’s first-ever mid-ranger to feature flagship-grade flat aluminium side-rails.
According to OnePlus, the OnePlus Ace 2V features a metal and glass unibody design that will have flat flagship-grade aluminium side rails, along with a premium glass back to boot, similar to the style that Apple employs in its iPhone 14 series. The brand exclaims that current flagship killers in the smartphone space, always feature polycarbonate plastic rails that made the overall ergonomics of the smartphone worse, clearly implying that cost-cutting was done in the durability department. And the OnePlus Ace 2V aims to be the first premium-feeling flagship killer with flagship-grade materials to boot.
Besides feeling good in the hands, the OnePlus Ace 2V is also advertised to be looking beautiful to the eyes, because of its narrow bezel. Louis Lee, CEO of OnePlus China, has shared a photo that the OnePlus Ace 2V will have side bezels as thin as 1.46mm, and a bottom chin bezel as thin as 2.31mm, for context that is comparable to flagships such as the Xiaomi 13, iPhone 14, and Samsung Galaxy S23.
Louis also shared more details of the OnePlus Ace 2V colour options, the Mint Green option will feature a premium glossy green glass black similar to the Oppo Find X5 Pro, and the Charcoal Black option will feature a frosted matte black finish on the back, found on its flagships such as the OnePlus 10 Pro.
Lastly, OnePlus announced that moving forward all of its future OnePlus Ace devices will be using flagship-grade aluminium for its side rails as well because it wants to set a high standard for durability and ergonomics in the flagship killer mid-range space.
According to reports, the OnePlus Ace 2V will have a 6.74-inch 1.5K AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, it will feature the Dimensity 9000 chipset, 16 GB of LPDDR5x RAM, up to 512 GB of UFS 3.1 storage, and a 5,000mAh battery with 80W charging support. It is also reported previously to be launching in the global markets as the OnePlus Nord 3 in July 2023.
