OnePlus is getting ready to add to its Ace series with the Ace 7 and Ace 7 Pro. Both will officially debut in China on October 29. Pre-orders are already open, and the company has now shown the full colour options.

The standard Ace 7 comes in Tempered, Midnight Black, and Glossy White (also called Radiant White). The higher-end Ace 7 Pro gets Windbreaker, Midnight Black, and Lightning White (also listed as Radiant White in some materials).

Design-wise, both phones lean into a more premium, flagship look. There’s a hidden “Storm Island” air intake that uses an aerodynamic layout to help with airflow. You’ll also find a customizable “Interstellar Light Effect” breathing light that can amp up the gaming vibe and double as a visual alert for calls and notifications. The phones pair a solid metal frame with a new AG silk glass finish on the back for a smoother feel and better grip.

The Ace 7 Pro is the more interesting one on paper. It’s powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. The big talking point, though, is what OnePlus is calling the industry’s first dual-path air cooling system.

This active setup sends air along two separate paths, one aimed at the chipset to keep high frame rates stable, and another directed at the rear panel so the back of the phone stays cooler during long sessions. Official tests and tipster reports suggest the fan can drop temperatures by around 10°C while helping maintain performance in demanding games.

The positioning of the intakes and exhausts is also designed so they don’t get in the way when you’re holding the phone in landscape for gaming. Full specs are still under wraps until the October 29 event. Overall, the series keeps OnePlus’s usual focus on sustained performance for mobile gamers, and the dual-path cooling looks like a clear step beyond the usual vapor-chamber solution.
