OnePlus looks set to push boundaries again. Fresh leaks suggest the upcoming OnePlus Ace 6 could ship with a 7,800 mAh battery, 120 W charging, and a 165 Hz OLED panel. Under the hood, the Snapdragon 8 Elite is tipped to keep things running. Add in memory options up to 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB storage, and it starts sounding like a serious power user’s phone. But, as with all leaks, the details deserve a closer look.
What’s Being Said So Far
Performance and Power
Leaked info points to Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite (SM8750) running the show — not the newer Gen 5 chip, but still a top-tier choice. The phone could also feature a 7,800 mAh battery alongside 120 W wired charging, which would put it ahead of most flagships in endurance.
Memory Choices
Storage options look generous: 12/256 GB, 12/512 GB, 16/256 GB, 16/512 GB, and even 16/1 TB at the top end. That’s a spread wide enough to cover budget-conscious buyers and those who never want to delete a file.

Display and Design
The Ace 6 may bring a 1.5K OLED panel with a 165 Hz refresh rate — higher than the 120 Hz standard you see on most phones today. The design reportedly takes cues from the Ace 5 Ultra, with a vertical camera array, and tips suggest the phone will weigh around 214 g.

Why It Matters
Here’s the thing: if this leak pans out, OnePlus is clearly targeting people who want endurance and raw speed.
- Battery life: 7,800 mAh is massive by any standard.
- Charging: 120 W means a near-full charge in under half an hour.
- Screen: 165 Hz screams gaming and smooth scrolling.
- Chipset: Opting for Snapdragon 8 Elite instead of the shiny new Gen 5 is an odd move — maybe about cost, maybe about proven stability.
It feels less like a “camera wars” flagship and more like a performance beast.
