After many leaks and speculations, OnePlus has officially announced that the upcoming Ace series will be launched in China this December. This series will feature two models — the regular Ace 5 and the Ace 5 Pro.
Chip Details
A teaser image reveals the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, but the company has not confirmed which device will have it. It’s anticipated that the Ace 5 Pro will utilize this powerful SoC. OnePlus is also expected to share more details and the official launch date shortly. In the meantime, the retail packaging for the Ace 5 has made an appearance on Weibo, a well-known Chinese social media site. The box showcases the classic OnePlus red with prominent black "Ace" lettering on it.
Expected Features
Let's take a look at the speculated features for both models. The standard Ace 5 is anticipated to come equipped with a solid Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, featuring a 6.78-inch 1.5K BOE display that includes LTPO technology. It will also have a generous 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM paired with 512GB of UFS 4.0 storage.
In terms of photography, rumors indicate a triple-camera setup with a 50MP main sensor, supported by 8MP and 2MP secondary lenses. To ensure all-day usage, a large battery capacity between 6000mAh and 6500mAh is expected, along with the ability for 100W fast charging.
Design and Aesthetics
The Ace 5 Pro is rumored to include the cutting-edge Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. Its display is expected to remain in the 1.5K BOE X2 LTPO range, but with ultra-slim bezels for a more immersive viewing experience.
Details about the camera setup are still unclear, but we can look forward to a triple-sensor layout featuring a 50MP main lens. Unfortunately, there seems to be no periscope lens for those who love super-zooming. The battery capacity is estimated to be between 6200mAh and 6300mAh, also supporting 100W fast charging. Additionally, the Ace 5 Pro is said to feature a right-angle metal frame with chamfered edges, providing it with a modern and boxy design.
