Powering the device will be a 7,000mAh battery, one of the largest ever in a OnePlus flagship. It will support 100W wired and 50W wireless fast charging, ensuring users spend less time plugged in.
In China, the phone will ship with ColorOS 16 based on Android 16, while global versions, including India, will come with OxygenOS 16, also based on Android 16.
