Literally and figuratively. Hot on the heels of launching the OnePlus 12, OnePlus has started building hype around its next product— the OnePlus Ace 3— which could only mean one thing, the launch is right around the corner (rumours peg a January 4 launch).
Ahead of launch, the company has shared a first look teaser video on Weibo with OnePlus China president Li Jie setting the stage for the phone’s hero colourway— Mingsha Gold. The big takeaways? The OnePlus Ace 3 is set to get a glass back and metal frame with OnePlus’s signature alert slider also tagging along on this one. OnePlus goes on to stress how it’s gone the extra mile to build the back panel using a gold-melting glass process so it would feel like metal, more superior – and expensive— than ordinary glass. There should be more options at launch, we are assuming.

Though the teaser reveals nothing about the phone’s front, OnePlus has previously confirmed that the Ace 3 will feature a 1.5K resolution X1 (Oriental) screen sourced from BOE, presumably curved. Leak suggest the phone would come with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip and a 5,500mAh battery with 100W fast charging support. For photography, the OnePlus Ace 3 is tipped to get a triple camera setup on the rear headlined by a 50-megapixel Sony IMX890 sensor paired to another 8-megapixel ultrawide and 2-megapixel macro.
The OnePlus Ace 3, as we mentioned earlier, will serve as the template for the India-bound OnePlus 12R, much in the same way the OnePlus Ace 2 was to the OnePlus 11R. An interesting thing to know about the OnePlus 12R is that the OnePlus R-series— which has remained India exclusive so far— is going global with it, for the first time.
