In an exciting announcement, OnePlus has officially unveiled the highly anticipated OnePlus 15 alongside the Ace 6. Both flagship devices are now available for purchase in China, with global availability set for November 13. It’s worth noting that the Ace 6 will be marketed internationally as the OnePlus 15R.
The OnePlus 15 boasts a stunning 6.78-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, featuring a refresh rate of 165Hz for an ultra-smooth visual experience. Powering the device is the cutting-edge Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, coupled with a generous 16GB of RAM. This combination ensures seamless multitasking and high-performance gaming capabilities. Furthermore, the OnePlus 15 is equipped with a robust 7,300mAh battery, supporting rapid 120W wired and 50W wireless charging options, making it one of the most powerful smartphones currently available.
On the other hand, the OnePlus Ace 6 features a slightly larger 6.82-inch display, also with a 165Hz refresh rate, and is backed by an impressive 7,800mAh battery. However, it utilizes the previous generation Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. Despite this, the Ace 6 remains a formidable option for users seeking performance and battery life.
In addition to OnePlus’ announcements, Oppo has confirmed that its Find X9 series will make its global debut in early November. This expansion further solidifies Oppo's commitment to providing innovative technology to a wider audience.
Meanwhile, Motorola has transitioned its China-exclusive X70 Air to the global market as the Moto Edge 70. This smartphone retains its original specifications, including a sleek 6mm frame, and is priced at €800, making it an attractive option for consumers looking for high-end features.
In a bold move, Nothing has introduced its first entry-level smartphone under its own brand—the Nothing Phone (3a) Lite. This device shares a similar aesthetic to the Nothing Phone (3) and offers comparable specifications to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, although it does not include a zoom camera. The Nothing Phone (3a) Lite is competitively priced, starting at $249/€249/£249, and is currently under review.
Recent tests on the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max have revealed that it ranks among the best smartphones for battery life and charging speed. This performance is critical for users who rely heavily on their devices throughout the day.
Looking ahead, the upcoming Xiaomi 17 Ultra is set to feature a revolutionary 50MP main camera with enhanced in-sensor zoom capabilities, approaching an impressive 85mm zoom level. Additionally, improvements to the 200MP zoom camera are anticipated, promising exceptional dynamic range and image quality.
As the smartphone market continues to evolve, these new releases from OnePlus, Oppo, Motorola, Nothing, and Xiaomi highlight the industry's commitment to innovation and user experience. Stay tuned for more updates as these devices roll out globally.
