OnePlus is soon going to announce the OnePlus Ace 3 Pro, an affordable flagship phone, in the Chinese market. One of the major attractions of the device is that it will be equipped with the so-called “glacier battery,” jointly developed by OnePlus and CATL. Tipster Digital Chat Station recently claimed that it incorporates new silicon-carbon anode materials, which will make it possible for the Ace 3 Pro to pack a larger battery without any significant increase in thickness. In recent Weibo posts, the tipster revealed a few more details about the device, including its price.

According to DCS, the OnePlus Ace 3 Pro will feature a ceramic body with a massive 6100mAh battery inside. He previously revealed that, despite packing a big battery, the Ace 3 Pro will have a thickness of around 8.x mm. Like its predecessor, it will support 100W fast charging and be able to achieve a full charge in just 30 minutes.
According to DCS, the OnePlus Ace 3 Pro is equipped with advanced technology that enhances the performance of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, resulting in significantly improved gaming visuals and an entirely new gaming experience. The said technology is expected to significantly boost GPU performance.
The leaker said that OnePlus is pushing its competitors to launch smartphones with increased memory capacities, phasing out 8 GB of RAM in the 3000 Yuan (~$415) price range and introducing 24 GB of RAM in the 4000 Yuan (~$550) range. While OnePlus leads in market share for devices with ultra-large memory, rising costs in the supply chain present some challenges. He hinted that the top-tier variant of the Ace 3 Pro will feature 24 GB of RAM and a hot-forged ceramic body. Hence, it appears that this model could be priced above 4,000 Yuan.
Other reports have revealed that the OnePlus Ace 3 Pro will have a 6.78-inch AMOLED screen that offers a 1.5K resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The device will feature up to 1 TB of UFS 4.0 storage, a 16-megapixel front camera, and a 50-megapixel (OIS) + 8-megapixel (ultra-wide) + 2-megapixel (macro) triple camera unit. It will have a metal middle frame and will also come in leather and glass back options.
