We can expect OnePlus’ flagship phone, the OnePlus 12, to be unveiled in China by the end of the year. A new Ace-branded phone may be announced in October or November in China or alongside the OnePlus 12 in December. According to the leaker’s Weibo post today, the device will be known as the OnePlus Ace 3. The device’s key specifications were also reiterated by him.

This tipster claims that the OnePlus Ace 3 will feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. After the OnePlus 11 5G and the Ace 2 Pro for China, this will be the third SD8G2 phone from OnePlus.
According to the tipster, the Ace 3 will feature a metal middle frame and a 5,500mAh battery that supports 100W charging. There will be a Sony IMX709 telephoto camera with a 2x optical zoom on the rear of the phone.
He previously leaked that the Ace 3 will come with a 6.74-inch curved OLED display. In addition to 1.5K resolution and 120Hz refresh rate, it will support high-frequency dimming as well. There will be three cameras on its back: a 50MP Sony IMX890 main camera, an 8MP OmniVision OV8D10 ultra-wide lens, and a 32MP telephoto lens. However, it is expected to come with up to 16GB or 24GB of LPDDR5x RAM and 512GB or 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage.
The OnePlus Ace 3 is also expected to be released outside of China, most likely in India. OnePlus 12R is likely to be rebranded outside of China as the OnePlus 12S.
