This launch is an enormous teaser as a result of the Ace 6T is broadly anticipated to be the blueprint for the OnePlus 15R, which is ready to land in India on December 17.

If you're curious in regards to the value, the cellphone begins at CNY 2,599 (round USD 367) for the bottom mannequin.

Why it issues – and what comes subsequent for OnePlus patrons

This launch is important as a result of OnePlus loves rebrand. The “Ace” telephones in China nearly all the time morph into the “R-series” for world markets. So, wanting on the Ace 6T is mainly getting a sneak peek on the upcoming 15R.

The display screen is an enormous 6.83-inch AMOLED panel with a blazing 165Hz refresh price – excellent for players. The digital camera setup is strong too, that includes a 50MP predominant sensor with OIS that may shoot 4K video at 120fps, plus a normal ultrawide and selfie cam.

However the actual headline is the sturdiness and battery. OnePlus gave this cellphone an insane mixture of IP scores (IP66, IP68, and even IP69K). Which means it might face up to high-pressure water jets and mud higher than most “rugged” telephones. On high of that, it packs a ridiculous 8,300mAh battery with 100W charging. That's simply one of many greatest batteries we now have ever seen in a mainstream cellphone.

For anybody ready for the December 17 keynote, that is your roadmap. Count on next-gen pace, a display screen that’s quicker than your laptop computer, and a battery that refuses to die. Now, we simply have to attend and see if the worldwide pricing stays this aggressive.
