OnePlus is expected to announce the OnePlus 16 by early October in China. Ahead of the launch, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station has been consistently leaking details about the upcoming OnePlus flagship. Recently, he shared key information about the phone’s display, and now he has shared detailed information about its rear and front cameras.

OnePlus 16 camera setup gets a major upgrade

According to the latest leak, the OnePlus 16 will feature a 200-megapixel primary camera with a 1/1.4-inch sensor. This is said to be the only phone in its sub-series to receive the large 200-megapixel sensor, suggesting that OnePlus is putting greater emphasis on the main camera’s image quality.

The camera system is also expected to include a 50-megapixel 3x periscope telephoto camera using a 1/1.95-inch Sony sensor. The rear setup could be completed by a new 50-megapixel ultrawide camera, giving the OnePlus 16 a three-camera configuration covering standard, zoom, and wider shots.

On the front, the phone is tipped to feature a 50-megapixel selfie camera with autofocus. The autofocus capability could help with sharper selfies and more flexible framing compared with fixed-focus front cameras.

The camera changes are not the only notable hardware upgrades expected on the OnePlus 16. Earlier details from Digital Chat Station suggested that the phone will use a new-generation BOE Oriental Screen with a 165Hz refresh rate extending across more system and application scenarios. The panel is also expected to use the X4 light-emitting material jointly developed by OnePlus and BOE.

Gaming could push the refresh rate to 185Hz in supported titles, while OnePlus is expected to bring improvements to its high-refresh-rate technology, Fengchi Gaming Core, and e-sports triple-core technology.

The phone is also tipped to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro, a 9,000mAh battery with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging support, an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, ColorOS 17-based Android 17, dual speakers, an X-axis vibration motor, and IP68/IP69 protection.
