28 October 2025, 10:39:48
OnePlus has officially launched its latest flagship, the OnePlus Ace 6, a powerhouse engineered for users who demand uncompromising speed, clarity, and endurance. Designed with gamers and performance enthusiasts in mind, the Ace 6 combines cutting-edge hardware with intelligent software to deliver a next-generation mobile experience.
At the heart of the Ace 6 lies the Snapdragon 8 Elite mobile platform, built on a 3nm process that delivers a 45% boost in CPU performance and 40% GPU uplift while slashing power consumption. Complementing this is OnePlus's proprietary Triple Gaming Chipset, which includes a performance chip for stable high frame rates, a network chip for uninterrupted connectivity, and a touch chip for ultra-responsive controls. Together, these components create a seamless gaming experience, even during extended play sessions.
To support its high-performance ambitions, OnePlus developed a new Glacier Cooling System, which doubles heat dissipation efficiency. The Ace 6 houses a dual-cell battery rated at 2×3900 mAh (equivalent to 7800 mAh typical capacity), supported by 120W Super Flash Charging. It reaches 58% in just 20 minutes and a full charge in under 45 minutes. The charging system supports multiple protocols, including UFCS, PPS, PD, and QC, ensuring broad compatibility.
The Ace 6 introduces the world's first native 165Hz refresh rate across six major mobile game genres, including FPS, MOBA, and racing. This leap from 120Hz to 165Hz means users see 45 more frames per second - giving competitive gamers a crucial edge. The 6.83-inch flat OLED display boasts a 93.6% screen-to-body ratio and a resolution of 2800 × 1272 (FHD+), delivering 450 PPI pixel density. The panel offers 10-bit color depth, 100% DCI-P3 coverage across all modes, and a peak brightness of 1800 nits. Eye comfort is prioritized with TÜV Rheinland certification, PWM + DC dimming, and low-brightness anti-flicker protection.
The rear camera setup includes a 50MP wide-angle main sensor (f/1.8, 24mm equivalent) with dual-axis OIS and PDAF and an 8MP ultra-wide lens with an f/2.4 aperture. Both shooters support OIS and autofocus. The front camera is a 16MP unit with an f/2.4 aperture and a 4-element lens. Design-wise, the device boasts IP68 and IP69K-rated water and dust resistance, a balanced 50:50 weight distribution, and three color options: Quicksilver, Flash White, and Racing Black. The body comprises an aluminum alloy frame, a Crystal Shield Glass on the front, and a glass back.
Running on ColorOS 16, the Ace 6 offers fluid multitasking, AI personalization, and cross-device connectivity. Additional features include ultrasonic fingerprint unlocking, dual stereo speakers, multifunctional NFC, and an infrared remote control.
