OnePlus Ace design officially teased – Flat edges, triple camera & missing alert slider

Sudhanshu — Wed, 13 Apr 2022 09:54:24 +0000

The OnePlus Ace, the upcoming midrange phone from OnePlus. It has so far been spotted on the 3C and Geekbench databases. The listings have revealed its 150W charging capability and the Dimensity 8100 SoC.

Now, OnePlus has teased an upcoming device via the Chinese microblogging site – Weibo. The teaser includes a partial image of the back panel of the device in two different colors. It also somewhat confirms the Ace moniker, as it’s visible in the poster.

Previously, the device was tipped to be a rebranded Realme GT Neo3, but looking at the images, the divide may feature some physical differences. Firstly, its camera module completely covers the top left side of the device, akin to what we’ve seen in the Galaxy S21 series. Another difference from the GT Neo3 would be the edges, which in the case of the OnePlus Ace appear to be flat.

Other than that, the OnePlus Ace teaser reveals that the device will come with a triple rear camera setup along with an LED flash. The OnePlus Alert slider is nowhere on the poster so the device will likely omit this feature.

So far, rumors state that the OnePlus Ace will have a 6.7-inch OLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. It is said to come with a 4,500mAh battery with a 150W fast charging support. Under the hood, the device will house a Dimensity 8100 SoC paired with up to 12GB of RAM.

Apart from this, the phone is expected to come with multiple cameras at the rear. It will have a 50MP Sony IMX766 main lens. Since the OnePlus Ace will be a rebadged model of the Realme GT Neo3, we can expect it to have a punch-hole FHD+ screen, with an in-screen fingerprint scanner. The device is expected to be equipped with a triple camera system with a 50MP main lens, 8MP ultra-wide, and a 2MP macro lens.
