OnePlus has unveiled its latest series of smartphones in China called Ace 5 and Ace 5 Pro, which will sport improvements in battery capacity and processing power. The company skipped the number 4 from its nomenclature, as the Chinese do not like using the number.
The flagship model, the OnePlus Ace 5 Pro, packs Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. It also boasts a 6,100 mAh silicon carbon battery with support for 100W fast charging. On the front side, there is a 6.78-inch AMOLED display at 2780×1264 resolution with 4,500 nits peak brightness.
Mobile gamers get specialized features such as "double ice core VC" cooling system and dedicated gaming chip for stable 120 FPS at 1080p resolution on the Pro variant. It has also collaborated with Genshin Impact to promote the gaming experience.
The camera system includes a 50MP main sensor with optical image stabilization, accompanied by an 8MP ultrawide and 2MP macro lens. The device also has AI-powered features for removing unwanted subjects from images and minimizing glare.
Its sibling, the standard OnePlus Ace 5, carries many similar specifications but opts for the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and a larger 6,415 mAh battery, though with slower 80W charging. Both models run on Android 15-based ColorOS 15.
Pricing for the Ace 5 Pro starts at CNY3,399 ($465) for the base 12GB/256GB configuration, while the Ace 5 begins at CNY2,299 ($315). Both devices offer variants up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage, with special ceramic editions available at a premium.
The Ace 5 is currently available through Oppo's online store in China, with the Pro model scheduled for release on December 31. International availability has not been announced.
