OnePlus Ace 3 Pro tipped to launch with even bigger battery than predecessor

OnePlus is reportedly gearing up to launch the Ace 3 Pro, a new smartphone that is rumored to pack an even larger battery than its already-impressive predecessor, the Ace 3 (also known as the 12R in some markets). The Ace 3 made headlines with its 5,500mAh battery, the largest in a OnePlus device to date. However, the forthcoming Ace 3 Pro is said to break this record by featuring a 6,100mAh battery, adding to the anticipation for its release later in the year.

Despite the anticipated increase in battery size, the Ace 3 Pro is expected to maintain a slender profile. This is attributed to the incorporation of an “ultra-high-density” battery technology, which could potentially keep the device as thin as the previous 8.8mm model or even slimmer. Interestingly, the Ace 3 Pro might eschew the option for wireless charging, but it is speculated that the device will continue to support a 100W wired charging capability.

A unique aspect of the upcoming device is its design aesthetics, which are reportedly influenced by a distinctive supercar—the limited-edition Bugatti Veyron. Leaked information suggests that the Ace 3 Pro could boast a premium finish, including a ceramic-inlaid rear panel adorned with a laser-cut pattern reminiscent of the Bugatti’s exclusive styling.

The design may feature a striking arrangement of around 104 flow lines, contributing to the phone’s luxurious appeal. With such details, the Ace 3 Pro is expected to give off the vibe of an uber-premium smartphone rumored to cost around 10,000 yuan (approximately $1,378), even though it would be following models that are much more affordably priced in the market.

OnePlus fans and smartphone enthusiasts are anticipating further details and confirmed specifications as the anticipated release date approaches. With its combination of a large-capacity battery, sleek design, and potentially approachable price point, the OnePlus Ace 3 Pro is poised to make a significant impact in the competitive smartphone market upon its arrival.
