The Chinese brand OnePlus held a presentation of the new OnePlus Turbo smartphone line, which is primarily aimed at mobile gaming enthusiasts and will compete with the Honor Win series, which debuted in China last week and is hugely popular.

What is known

Buyers will be offered two models — OnePlus Turbo 6 and Turbo 6V.

It is officially stated that the smartphones will feature 9000 mAh batteries with 80W wired charging support, and gamers will be specifically interested in the 165 Hz refresh rate screen. The new products will receive Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 and Snapdragon 7s Gen 4, respectively — not flagship, but quite powerful chipsets that will provide high performance.

The base OnePlus Turbo 6 will be available in four configurations: 12GB + 256GB, 12GB + 512GB, 16GB + 256GB, and 16GB + 512GB, and in three body colors: black (Lone Black), silver (Chasing Light Silver), and green (Wilderness Green).

The more budget-friendly OnePlus Turbo 6V will be offered in 8GB + 256GB, 12GB + 256GB, and 12GB + 512GB options, and in black (Lone Black), white (Nova White), or blue (Fearless Blue) bodies.

According to leaks, the OnePlus Turbo 6 and Turbo 6V will be equipped with a flat display with a resolution of 1.5K. The Turbo 6 will have a 6.78” screen, and the Turbo 6V will feature a 6.8” screen (possibly with a 144 Hz refresh rate).

When to expect

The official presentation of the new OnePlus Turbo series will take place on January 8, 2026, but pre-orders for the smartphones are already available on Chinese marketplaces.
