00:02The OnePlus 15T is expected to launch later this month in China.
00:07After the launch, the company's focus will turn towards the OnePlus 16, which should
00:11launch in the month of October this year.
00:14But leaks about OnePlus 16 have already started to emerge.
00:18The OnePlus 16 will be a power-packed smartphone that will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite
00:23Gen 6 Pro.
00:24If you are wondering about the Pro branding, let me make it clear.
00:27The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro isn't only a generational upgrade, but a true beast
00:33and Pro branding suggests the capabilities of the SoC.
00:38The Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro will be built on a 2nm process, which will make it power
00:44efficient.
00:45The SoC will support LPDDR6 RAM, which according to the information will roughly double the
00:51maximum bandwidth of the original LPDDR5.
00:54Jumping from a peak of 6.4 Gbps to as high as 14.4 Gbps.
01:01Since generative AI requires more processing power, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro with LPDDR6
01:09RAM will carry significant boost in overall performance.
01:13The OnePlus 16 could be the first phone in the world to feature a 200Hz refresh rate display.
01:19However, the display resolution could remain to 1.5K resolution.
01:23But the higher refresh rate will definitely make the display even smoother.
01:29The camera setup on the OnePlus 16 is also said to get an upgrade.
01:33It will get a 50MP main sensor along with a 50MP ultra-wide-angle lens.
01:38But the highlight of the camera setup might be the 200MP periscope camera, which might feature
01:44the Samsung HP 5 sensor.
01:46For security, the OnePlus 16 will feature an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner.
01:51There's no information about its battery capacity, but it should get an upgrade as well.
01:56So, with the new, more powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro chip, a 200MP periscope camera, and
02:04a faster RAM, the OnePlus 16 could be hard to beat.
02:08But don't expect it to carry a similar price as its predecessor.
02:11As we know, the prices for RAM and storage have risen sharply.
02:14So, the inclusion of LPDDR6 RAM will make the OnePlus 16 more expensive.
02:20According to DCS, the 12-256GB model may cost around 5,000 yuan, which is roughly $725.
02:30So, what do you think about the OnePlus 16?
